I'm finally feeling like myself!!! Last day I used was dec25...its been a long week. In a daze,.. Every minute an hour. I'm glad the family is so patient w me.
Hope everyone else is doing well. Take what you need to be successful. It's hard at first but you can do it and come out of the other side.
 
some anithistamines takes the sickess (unless your talking about withdravel)

but for me:
1) i freeze alot or have coldsweat chills
2) i get an kinda echo when i talk and its making me crazy
3) no sleep at all unless i ingest so many benzo's the rest of the world would go missing :P
 
Benzodiazepines, especially Alprazolam (Xanax) & Temazepam. Followed by Oxycontin/Poppy Pod Tea/Morphine
 
Let me first say that I have never experienced any kind of benzo WD. So I can't comment, agree, or disagree with anything related.Moving on that being said my pick is without a doubt IV Heroin WD. No question. Once u graduate to IV use the withdrawal changes. I've been through avery form or opiate withdrawal, from pills to IV and still stopping to shoot the dope was hardcore. I can proudly say that right now, today, I'm almost 8 months clean from dope :-) I still can't help but smile when I think back where I was last summer. I did it all cold turkey, at my mom's house. She provided the support and harsh truths I needed to hear. She was already ammune to all of my junky tricks and loopholes. Which was exactly what I needed. I wanted to avoid rehab help better remember the pain. 90% relapse rate after rehab.. Most important thing.. NO MATTER WHAT, WD WON'T KILL U! Unless u have something already wrong with u I guess... 1st meal was on day 4 and an 8 hour nights sleep still alludes me to this day. But I'm happy. I still smoke weed daily. It only helps me. I wouldn't recommend suboxone taper but it works for some. If u know u have 0 self control for drugs, go cold turkey. You'll thank me later haha. Smoke weed! It's all u should need :-)Good luck to everyone! God bless!
 
Everyone here says benzos however i have never experienced a TRUE benzo wd, for me however, the worst WD was by far alcohol!!! Almost died my first go, learned i had to taper my way down but man was it hard as fuck snd took like almost a fucking year
 
The comedown from stimulants was awful - although, benzo withdrawal for me when I was hyperthyroid taking handfuls a day was the absolute worst when I no longer had a script. Worse than Heroin withdrawal actually, for me.

Alcohol is a horrible withdrawal as well I've heard. I've seen my x withdraw from the sauce and it looked worse than what I went through. ;\
 
TCA & SSRIs can especially after long exposure, higher doses, have severe withdrawal effects. even as Dr supervised, carefully tapered disuse. 10+ yrs use. The symptoms even after careful tapering, last for months, with a gradual chain of horrid pain, headaches, inability to sleep, like a meth binge,(don't use), 2-3 weeks increasing dizziness, loss of co-ordination, tripping/falling, general feeling of illness to extreme shorter flu's, with vomiting, (that continued over 1st 2+ months, reappearing each 2-3 days). Couch zombie 3+ months, w/short reprieves. A long process, not prepared for it as "non-addictive". Lack of being able to sleep, beyond 2-3 hours,for 3+ months, very messed up. A constant ill feeling. A very addictive drug. That it had no WD was it's advantage, so I was told.

I've only experienced heroin WD. All of it is horrible. The physical first then the psychological. About the second day I'm puking, shitting,pissing every five minutes. My whole body hurts. Your skin feels like it's crawling. Sneezing and yawning all the time. I'm cold...i'm hot, i don't know what i am. I've got goose bumps and its 90 degrees outside. I get like restless arms and legs. My arms annoy me the most, feels like i have to stretch them all the time like i need to get the muscles tight or something. I'll just punch my head board and such. You can't sleep and when you do it's only for like 20 mins. And it just gets worse till about the 4th or 5th day.

After you go through WD, I'll be fine for days or maybe a month or so. Then I start thinkin about how good it was. The extreme rush from shooting. Then i get all anxious and wanna do it just ONE more time. With my experience it's never just one more time. The only way I've stopped was ending up in jail a few times.Then once i got on methadone but then i messed up probation and ended up in jail again and had to detox from methadone in jail which really sucked. And for some reason i never thought about detox till my probation officer said something about it and right away i got myself into one.

Heroin addiction and withdrawal in a total bitch

the trick is to do small amounts every few days
 
That sounds like Akathisia which is a torment from hell. I cant make sense of what doctors say is the difference, but there is one, supposedly. Do you know? 25% of test patients in Abilify trials got it, and they still approved the drug.

Worst withdrawal: Daytrana which is transdermal Ritalin. I was falling asleep at one am and waking up at 3 am - 5 am in the depths of dread with my heart pounding for over a year. Couldn't stand to be conscious. Dreaded sunrise and prayed to all deities to please kill me. Never had that problem with No more prescription drugs for me, Too dangerous.
 
Yeas I've experienced Coke WD and I felt like complete shit. I couldn't find the ability to feel pleasure, defenitly after a hard weekend binge. Bruh, Let me tell you that enlarged ego you talking about is sooo fucking true. I felt like without the drug I couldn't be the man I was were when in was on it. Now I'm on MDMA, not pure ofc so a G did me just fine.
 
worst withdrawal is from methadone for sure. Lyrica and benzos tie for 2nd place. I've never been through it myself, but i've heard kicking alcohol is no joke either. Kicking methadone is so bad some detox centers won't even take people who want to come in and detox off of methadone. Or at least you must be on a low, low dose (40mg or lower). Basically anything you can die from coming off is going to be a horrid kick.
 
I have withdraws from heroin and xanax and I think xanax withdraws were way worse. They just lasted so much longer than heroin withdraws. So for me I'd say xanax is the worst drug to withdraw from
 
Benzodiazepines.

I've been addicted to them for years, tried to quit several times, gone a month or two without them, but the withdrawals are just never ending, and it seems like they just get more unbearable over time. I would rather kick heroin CT over benzo's any day. The only thing good about benzo withdrawal is that it always takes at least 2 days before it gets severe to the point where its dangerous (or thats been my experience with them).

Lyrica isn't on this list? Worst ever indeed

Agreed. Out of what I've personally experienced, pregabalin has been the worst. Dependency kicks in very quickly too. I was taking it as prescribed for only around a month and coming off it even with a taper left me feeling shitty for weeks. Wouldn't have even been able to sleep if it wasn't for benzos. Crazy insomnia, rebound anxiety, and you feel like you have the flu.
 
December 31 2015 was the last day I used opies and came off them the hard way as I moved to a new province withdrawals suck ass and for me it was roxies this stuff will stick with you forever it's something your always gonna fight but when u can be able to get more then 20 minutes away from your dealer it's like you've been released out of jail it's a hard life and i miss it a little everyday but u gotta keep on going
 
I voted for Heroin.

But, now that I've been on Methadone for over 4 years and Benzodiazepines for over 2 years, dosing daily, I think I'll die if I stop cold turkey.. 90mg of Methadone and 4mg Clonazepam, plus other benzos like Alprazolam, Lorazepam, and Diazepam added to the Clonazepam. (duh?)

The reason I voted for Heroin is because I couldn't handle not even 5 minutes of the misery.
It literally did almost kill me... From dehydration.
I vomited and stooled out every bit of liquid I had in my body, except stomach bile acid.
I was puking that out to.. That's how I almost died.

When the peramedics got to my house.. They told me exactly this " if you didn't call us within another hour, you would've gone into a coma from dehydration "

That was just part of it too..
I was in EXTREME PAIN, pale skin, blue lips, RLS, shaking, very high blood pressure, heart rate through the roof, fever over 103, it was a giant mess.

the peramedics put me on IV fluids right away, along with Zofran and Loperamide to calm down the vomiting and diarrhea.

When I got to the ER, I was admitted immediately, and the avg waiting time is 6-8 hours.

I got put on 30mg Morphine IV, Ativan 4mg IV, Promethazine 25mg IV, and Zofran 4mg IV every 4-6 hours for 3 days.
Then I got discharged to go to the Methadone program.

4 years later.. Here I am
 
i am a mandatory chipper who gets on with a mate maybe once or twice a year, on his terms. he calls the shots basically, the only source.

anyway i flirt with codeine wd coz otc codeine can easily be extracted here. cheap 10 dollar nod, compared to the extravagent prices of aus illicits(us and euro blighters would chuckle at the silly market we have here.. sigh.. cowboys distributing, and stomping on the stuff before floatin round the suberbs)

i seem to always shiver, starting at my lower back up, the only time its not noticeable is when im doing resistance training, probs from natural painkillers doin their thing. but ill be sweating in 35 degree heat and feel like i could put a rug over me in the sun!

i also get really horny haha
 
Any gaba drug, benzos alcohol ghb etc.

I don't give a fuck about mental withdrawals I'm mentally fucked regardless. I just managed an opiate kick that only put me out of commission for 4 days with some lingering physical withdraw the next few.

But GABA drugs are fucking terrible to withdraw from. If you have to go out it's obvious to anyone who sees you shaking and all that that you're a drug fiend. And you can die if you're habits big so you need to hit the ER.
