>>714558460 suggests. I’ve never been addicted to an opiate but from what I hear the withdrawals can be hellish. Amphetamine withdrawals are pretty mild in comparison— they cause a state of bodily exhaustion that can last for 2-5 days, followed by a dopaminergic refractory period that lasts up to 10 days. So basically, you feel sleepy then you feel depressed. But you don’t experience the severe pain associated with opiate withdrawal or the DTs associated with alcohol withdrawal.
