Question Withdrawal symptoms

I'm on day two on withdrawals I've done it before so I'm use to the itchy skin, upset stomach, shakes no sleep.... . The new thing is pins and needles in my feet... Anyone else have that?

Thanks!

I had pins and needles all over my body. I was also hallucinating until I got some medical attention.
Sounds dangerous, can you see a Doctor?

had them all, and please dont take it lightly.

On day 4, I ended up in the hospital having seizures.
Withdrawls are taken way to lightly by all.

If i hadnt told someone i was going thru them i could have died.
i think about where my two kids would be now if that had happened.
I am a single dad and it scared the shoot outta me.

If you want to quit and have this be the last time you go thru withdrawl, go to the dr and spill.

would you pay the insutrance if you actually knew your life depended on it.

I had pins and needles/numbing in parts of my left foot and hand for a week before and during the withdrawal period. My blood pressure spiked on day 2 dangerously high. I had to go to the ER right away. I was scared to fall asleep that night and not wake up. It's very scary and if you are experiencing those moderate signs a doc is best. I recovered with the help of a blood pressure med and an anxiety med.

I'm Lucky to be able to speak about day 2 last time for me.

I'm on Day three now and saw a new doctor in a new town and am on an at home medical detox.

Do it as if your life depended on it.

We're here to help and support you.

Yes, had them in my feet and all over my body. The withdrawals are the absolute worst. I chronicled mine as best I could, but I NEVER want to go back to that again. And, I don't have to. This last binge was a nightmare. Anxiety, couldn't sleep, pins and needles, feeling of immediate impending doom, humiliation . . . you name it. It also affected others in my family in ways that it never had before and I still feel very guilty for that.
