16 months. What to Expect

Would really like to know what's going on with me. I can seem so fine and then just out of nowhere feel crazy. Could it be PAWS after 16 months ? There are times its unexplainable what I'm feeling.

PAWS - Post Acute Withdrawal Syndrome

It might be PAWS... research shows that it may last a very long time; however, I would suggest you visit a doctor if it is physical symptoms you are dealing with or an addiction counselor or mental health professional if you are experiencing mental health symptoms, b/c some of use to self medicate an underlying mental illness, for example depression, that would be so much better treated without an addictive substance.
Remember - take care of yourself!

Hi nevseeusb4

none of us are Drs, and 'crazy' is pretty imprecise so anything we might say would be a total guess.

This link is useful for explaining PAWs
