It depended on a lot of factors. Mild withdrawals were equivalent to a stomach flu, but others were like Dante's 9th circle. With the bad withdrawal my worst physical symptom was definitely RLS. That was greatly improved by day 5 (off of short acting opis). Mentally was way worse for me though. The depression / impending feeling of doom were rough. I don't know how to describe it other than an extreme feeling of inner restlessness and a sense that something was terribly wrong. That starting improving some by day 5, but it took much longer than the physical symptoms to level out.

Mines always been skin problems. Either I sweat real bad or I get this really really bad horrible burning skin sensation. The rls is bad, too, tho and anxiety. And not being able to sleep. Ok it all sucks. :/

sweating, runs, yawning, crying uncontrollably, cold and hot, restless legs, but the good thing???? I know if I don't use again I don't have to go through it again…hasn't always worked but trying something different this time. I tried for so long to tackle it on my own but it never worked. This time I am at 34 days today clean. The sickness lasted about 3 days but was only on them for 7 weeks. Hang in there and keep posting.
Sweating, Runs, Cold and Hot flushes, sore joints, and total lack off sleep were the physical ones for me and they lasted for around 4-5 days. From then on I think it was mainly mental stuff from getting honest with myself.
