Each person is different I guess. I went through the withdraws for a couple of weeks. It was hard and nasty. But I wanted a life free from narcotics and was willing to do every and anything to get there.
Seeing a doctor is best, taper if you can but if not then medical care is utmost. I went cold turkey and it was over. All I can say now is I'm glad its over and I can get on with my addiction treatments so I don't pick up again. Being free from addiction isn't always good, yet its nothing like counting pills, going out getting pills, making everything revolve around pills, having my mood depend on pills...and the list goes on and on.
The best thing about being free from addiction is being free from addiction. Everything else can be handled now because I have the time to handle it. I'm not to loaded to act or to bummed out to care...I can get on with life, no matter what comes my way
