Your Body During Heroin Withdrawal

Been addicted to snorting black tar heroin since May 2023

Please help

That's not what chasing the dragon is lol.

in my personal experience (3 years in the 00s), opiates do not cause any significant harm, and there are no consequences to using them if they are from natural poppy, it may even be beneficial. Most of all I regret drinking alcohol. and the opiate period was a good time for me.

I promise myself everyday tat its the last time and ill quit tommorow. But I keep going back in the same circle.
I am gona get clean by Tommorow. Do I?
I'll update ya all after 5 days

I kid you not, I've just been going through withdrawals of heroin just few minutes earlier. I've been smoking heroin for around 8 yrs or so now and been doing it heavily everyday, haven't missed a single day of not smoking it. And as all heroin addicts know, when being intoxicated on this drug, it kinda prevents you from going to sleep, it keeps you active and you don't sleep much when being a heavy addict. So during the last few days I haven't been sleeping much, stayed awake most of the nights, barely slept for like 2/3 hrs, maybe less every night, which 2 days ago after smoking heavily, the sleep took me over and around 1am at night I felt really tired, got the urge of going to bed right away, which I did and I slept for hours up until like 2 pm the next day, went to pee and went straight to bed again, didn't think of anything, not even getting food, just wanted to sleep some more, the thought of smoking heroin also vanished from my head at that time, so I went on to continue sleeping.. I slept for basically 2 days and nights straight without eating or taking drugs whatsoever, which then I just woke up around 6 am in the morning after the 2 days, felt really tired, was sweating profusely on and off, was going through the withdrawal and since I was still sleepy I then slept for 30 mins on and off, waking up just to see some videos on YouTube and what not to then do those 30 mins of sleeps up until like 1 pm which I woke up sweating heavily and the urge of smoking heroin was kicking real hard.. I then forced myself to get off my bed, went to wash my face and I was in huge shock seeing my eyes all back in my head, my face itself looked like a zombie since I slept for 2 days straight without getting any sustainence whatsoever into my body, not even water.. I was also feeling so tired, getting diarrhea on and off, feeling hot and cold and I just couldn't bear it, I had to go get myself some heroin to smoke orelse I'd keep on feeling sick and so tired like this. I just couldn't even walk, my legs were so heavy and my whole body wasn't able to do any movements, I just didn't had any energy left in my system, and was not motivated at all, lost all power and willingness to do literally anything. I then got ahold of myself for a bit there, forced myself to take a shower, dressed myself and despite starving like crazy, I just ignored that and went straight outta the house to go get the drugs, I had to carry a handkerchief with me as I had a very runny nose.. Once on the road and giving a call to my dealer, he told me to wait for like 10 mins before coming to his place. I then found somewhere to sit, while hiding my face from the friends and people who know me, cuz I honestly was looking like shit and didn't wanted em to see me in such a state. But my situation got worst when the dealer kept telling me to wait and wait, and I sat there for almost 2 hours, waiting for him to give the go and to finally get my fix. Those 2 hrs felt like an eternity, running nose, feeling tired asf, every bone especially my leg bones hurting real bad, feeling real hungry, with practically no energy whatsoever within my body. Then at last the dealer called me and told me to come over, I then got a lil courage to wake up from there and go get the drugs. The journey from the dealer to finally be back at home felt really long and tiring, I myself didn't know how I got that strength to do that but somehow did it, with me walking real slow like a sloth smh.. Now back home, I didn't wait a single sec and went straight to smoking this shit, I was even trembling all over my body before hitting that first line of the drug. Quickly smoked couple times and now only that I started feeling myself, slowly got back some energy to do things, started feeling okay, with all the pain and the running nose gone all of a sudden and at this very moment I'm writing this comment here.. I always thought of stopping my heroin smoking addiction cold turkey, but going through the withdrawal of it just discouraged me like crazy, I just won't be able to do it cold turkey cuz this pain and loss of energy with not wanting to eat or drink at all, I just won't be able to handle all this on my own, so yeah I just wouldn't be able to do this cold turkey, I'd have to get something else to help me go through the withdrawal of this.. I really want to quit but dunno which way to turn to and if I'd really be able to make it or not..

You gotta be strong as shit to kick that seems like it.

Ummm buprenorphone is stronger than heroin. Both are just as addicti e. And actually the withdrawal from them is FAR worse

I used to be a crack addict, withdrawal was crazy, I used to have dreams of smoking crack which felt so real, then when I wake up and find out it was a dream I get highly disappointed

What is the name of the background music?

I love this as a pharma student 😅

All different parts of pharmacology come together

With the help of god the day will come…

I would like 2 see u do one about methadone

Been through opiate withdrawal a couple of times and can say it has nothing on my Sever Alchool Withdrawal cycles. I've had 6 grand mal seizures, sever hallucinations, all the basic symptoms you get with herion x2 of 3. I finally got clean for a year but it took like 6 or 8 months to stop shaking, I still can't drink coffee. I lost my sense of smell from one seizure. If my blood Alchool levels feel to .8 I would be withdrawing. It took 16milgrams of valium and liquid Ativan to stabilize me one time. If you don't do heroin you will feel a little sick, if I don't drink I will go mad or die, we are not the same lol.

Do one about benzo withdrawal, I dare you.
