I’m not sure but congratulations because I know how strong that substance can be. You can do it, one day at a time.

I overdosed 6times and the best thing is to not take the risk and make that 4th day happen for you to remember that one day at a time and you will be happy with yourself and I’m glad to be available if you need anything

Fentanyl withdrawals come later than regular opiate/H withdrawals. And they last for longer. The last time I got sober, I didn’t get any withdrawals until the third day and they lasted pretty steady for two weeks.

Good to know! That sounds terrible though! Thank you! You too!
As a x fentanyl user I'd say that sounds irregular but it also depends on how long and how much u did daily, I'd be happy to answer any questions u have about things used to get off as they can b hard to get off of too, tk God I've been 100% clean over 1 year

That happened to me too ! I went to detox and the first few days I was fine and everyone was so surprised why I wasn’t throwing up and getting hot then cold but on day 5 I couldn’t hold down any food and was dry heaving and felt like i was dying i could barley walk from my bed to the toilet (it was like 5 feet) It took 2 shots of whatever they gave me to make me stop throwing up. My whole body was yelling at me. They finally put me on suboxone and that REALLY helped. It’s been almost 4 months clean and I was a constant relapser but now i’m on suboxone it rlly helps with urges. I know if i didn’t have it i would have gone back to the fet and died. I know some people say now im just hooked on a different substance but i look at like medicine it does way more help then harm. (I was smoking blues for only a few months but I turned into a skeleton no matter what or how much i ate i would throw it all up even water. All i could do was smoke then pass out over and over until i would have died. i literally thought every time i hit it this would be the hit that kills me. i wanted to die.) The first days are always gonna be the hardest but pls stay strong and push thru!! it will be worth it promise. Fet is rlly hard and dangerous to get off in your own i highly suggest you check into detox. IM rooting for you. you deserve peace and sobriety.
