RISCAL,
Please....do not pay attention to these HORROR stories!
Information such as this ( 2-5 year detoxes) usually arises from persons that are perpetually addicted to narcotics and that spend more time researching the "negative" affects of getting into recovery that they do being positive.
After some brief research I was surprised to find out that there actually is ()POST Withdrawal Symptoms that can last for 2-3 months...not years lol
From what you described..it sounds as if you just may be a perfect text-book case of what to expect. Belive me Bro,
I was addicted to heroin at one time so I do have experience with withdrawal and I can honestlt say, its still true that what ever you may of may not suffer during detox...it is WELL worth doing by far.
Here is a copy of my research:
Post-acute withdrawal effects
According to a range of Medical journals there is also an often under-emphasized potential for Post-acute-withdrawal syndrome which may last until after the initial short-term. Post-acute-withdrawal syndrome may induce or mimic psychiatric disorders temporarily or long term such as Depression (clinical), Anxiety disorder, Psychosis and in rare cases, even Suicidal ideation. Post-acute-withdrawal syndrome will continue for some months (usually 1–3 months or more) after prolonged cessation of usage which is also referenced in the Medical journals on Post-acute withdrawal syndrome (PAWS).]].]

Pentanyl Patches have a relaticely short hald life
Thank you for your help, I'm just hoping the depression and not sleeping at night will stop because I cant imagine feeling this way for so long. Thank you again.
Ok, thank you for the infromation and your time to wright back to me.
Ah-ha...I knew someone would come through for you!
I hope not. I'm not very familiar w/Fentanyl patches but I don't think it takes that long. I'd imagine that everybody's different...there may be some cases that do as I'm sure there are some that don't. I know there are ppl on this forum that know more about them than I do & hopefully they'll see your post. There's a lot of members that have talked about perc's as well as the patches...I'm surprised no one has responded to your ? yet.Have you discussed your concerns w/your Dr? Hang tight...I'm sure someone here can give you some insight.
No....it shouldn't....physical wds takes a week or so maybe longer depending on the drug...the mental thing comes and goes for a while...if you get a good support system and stick to your gaol i would not think it would take that long to recover..I hope not anyway...I am over 6 weeks clean and feel significantly better already mentally...guess u never recover from being addicted/would always have to be careful...that part may not go away
Yes sorry thats what I meant, so it does take 2-5 yrs. to recover?
2-5 years before you START to notice signs of recovery? From what I've read on this forum that doesn't sound right. Are you sure it didn't say 2-5 years before complete recovery?
