Withdrawal after any drug after a significant amount of time sucks. When I wd from subs after using them for a few years it was a s.o.b. But.....if I can offer one thing that helped me, is the fact that I stayed away from the posts and so called "horror stories" on the internet concerning the pain of wd. I think while we are going through it we all feel like we will never feel better....but the body DOES adjust, and get better.

People tend to exaggerate how bad it is.....and that scares others when they read the posts. You are not alone and people do care.....us addicts can relate to one another where someone without addiction problems could never understand. If you really want this....you CAN do it. I know you have heard this and probably sick of hearing it....but even though you feel like absolute garbage, your body is getting better, and staying strong mentally is actually what helped me physically. Good luck and read about the success stories.
