scared of withdrawals

Hello everyone,
I have been using heroin for 3 weeks now, snorting a $10 bag a day, i want to quit, but scared of withdrawals, i have reduced to 1/2 bag a day for the last 3 days.
How heavy will be the withdrawals that im gonna have?
Has been 7 hours since my last half bag, and still dont feel anything but a Little pain in my legs (like when u exercise after long time)
Thank you for your help with this issue.
God bless all of you.

Hi and Welcome,

We can't give any kind of medical advice here, so it's probably a good idea to talk to your dr and work out a plan to get off the heroin.

No idea but seems like a small amount over a short period of time if true.

The longer you go the worse it will be.

I don't know how bad they'll be. But they will be a walk in the park compared to the WDs you'll have if you keep using and your addiction lasts years.

STOP now, regardless of the discomfort, with the knowledge that quitting is the best thing that you could do.

Frazi,
Carl is right, plz quit now. Don't worry about the withdrawals. Worry about the horrific life you will be living as an addict. I know... I am one ( quit H last Aug. & subs in Feb. )
Hugs, Kz

Probably irritable, sleepy and some aches for a day or so. You got lucky. Don't do it again.

Dont mean to blame anyone, im responsable for my action, but was hanging out with H users, and decided to try one time, and that crap makes you feel happy at first, that makes u want it all the time.
I have a GF and a step daughter that i love very much and i dont want to lose them..
