12-18 hours for hydrocodone/hydromorphone/oxycodone/morphine, slightly less for codeine.
Methadone seems to last forever.

First signals start at about 24 hours and get miserable by 48. Extreme fatigue, runny nose, nightmares...I'm a poppy tea drinker, btw.

With H, I'll start to feel a bit unwell after 6-8 hrs, but I can usually make it 12-18hrs depending on dose and such.
On methadone (50mg), I start to withdraw after like 12 hours, but just hot flashes, chills, restless, etc; it takes about 48 hours before I have to dose but the second day is really uncomfortable.

How time goes so slow that I think I'm getting a little younger.
How I lay in bed, to tired to sleep for more than a few hours if that, and the sleep I do get in always accompanied with very unpleasant dreams. Last night I had to eat four tropical birds infected with avian flu, a muddy couch cushion, a car floor mat, and a dead dog on the freeway to score some dope (in my dream, obviously). I woke up in my bed three hours later, sheets and pillow scattered, disoriented thinking I had dope. When I came to, I realized it was just a shitty dream again.

Insomnia due in part by RLS. Being so tired and not being able to sleep is just horrible. Ofcoarse it is even worse when coupled with sweats, nausea, and body aches to name a few.
Being depressed, and helpless while sitting in bed not being able to sleep is just horrible. It was the only time in my life that I seriously thought about ending it.

I hate being dopesick(as I am now) and being at work. The hours creep by and the small talk that your co-workers are used to you being great at become chores that are unbearable. You have to put up with shite like.."are you coming down with something?"....uhhh yeah, I need an opiate and my crappy country offers nothing OTC besides loperamide.

Doesn't always stay like that. In my first 2/3 years done would hold me for ages but now 14 years down the line i'm lucky to get 14 hours out of the same dose. Mind u everybody metabolises substances differntly so there is no exact answer to the original question.

worst was coming off of a high dose of methadone and i nearly killed myself seriously.i also quit the tramadol at the same time too so i'm sure it added to it. i didn't really know tramadol was so addicting at the time.

I had Tramadols when I was coming off from Methadone cold turkey and they did nothing. I was still puking. My Tramadols were just scattered all over the floor, if I found some that were close near my bed I'd take like 8. I couldn't leave my head unless I had to puke. Urgh I hated that experience.

Wow you guys are lucky with your 12+ hours of freedom... I shoot dilaudid a few times a day and wd kick in about 8 hours later... By 10 or 12 things begin to really suck.
Using more pills doesn't get me higher but it does keep wd at bay a little longer.

Its getting rough I have a decent iv dope habit and i just started workin like 3 weeks ago. My job is outdoor canvassing and i fix in the mornin (2-3 bags) like 630 am and im sick by like 3-4pm my shift ends at 5 and it takes me about 45 min to 1 hr to get to the westside and by that time im hurtin. Thank god i get cash everyday at work cuz if i dont have my dope for the next morning I cant work, I refuse to stand out in the cold (downtown chicago) if im dope sick. its sad cuz if I do work I make like $50 to $75 on top of my 8 hrs of $10 p/hr the honest way of working but If i dont have anything for the morning I have to hustle up like $30 on the street and I miss out on all that pay if I were to work that day, and i run into a vicious cycle.

The one WD symptom i can never shake or get over (the worse IMO) is the RLS or Over all body pain and restlessness.... its the fucking worse..... i cant describe how utterly helpless you feel and how much it sucks.... i would rather be in extreme pain then go through the restlessness that it causes.....
