I have use herion like for 2 month. And how much time it will take to withdrawal.. please reply dr b addiction recovery

Thank you Dr b....I wish our doctors understood withdrawal like u...we tend to be judged harshly if we ask for help.... U are an amazing ..caring...doctor and have helped me understand a lot....

@@debbiefinn6483 absolutely our pleasure. Educate, empower, remove the stigma! Stay strong, we are with you!

I beat heroin, booze, but am bipolar, adhd, 43, I'm on diazepam quetiapine, seroquel, zopiclone, beprenorphine, and although I'm doing o.k by routine, food exercise etc, my"whole" condition is not being looked at. Any help? Oh and I came off 80mg of meth cold Turkey- that was hell on earth

@@davidcml1363 hope your doing ok

AGREED!!!

If I could've just been able to get comfortable for a moment every now and then, I could've handled the misery in between better. That's why childbirth is a piece of cake compared to withdrawals.

@@inthelandofmorethansmall7582 it really is... I've said that before too... And atleast with some child birth I would have the epidural to help with the contractions in the beginning until the end... But withdrawals... Man they are sinister... And I'm scared

@@Messenger4now I never had an epidural, so I wasn't even considering that. 🤔 But that would definitely help too! But I'd gladly have triplets - NATURALLY - over and over and over again every day for a month before I would ever want to go through wds again. 😟😒😕 Heck, I'd be more likely to want an epidural for withdrawals than childbirth. That would at least help the RLS, the Cramp, the "discomfort" of the "genital area" (where it feels like your clitoris has been stimulated for hours and then the skin was ripped off like getting waxed 😳) and several of the other horrible symptoms of wd... 😕😟 But no! They WANT us to suffer. "You need the misery to teach you a lesson." 😢😭🥺

@@inthelandofmorethansmall7582 I know right!?! I have 5 children, and I had one of them "somewhat naturally" because I got the epidural way too late, so I felt everything!! It was painful, but it didn't last forever like withdrawals do. How long have you been clean? I'm in need of a serious detox and I'm scared to death 😭

Hey mates! Can you help with the source? I suffer severe anxiety, panic and depression and I usually take prescription medicine, but they don't always help. Where can I find those psilocybin mushrooms? I'm really interested in treating my mental health without Rxs. I live in Australia don't know much about these. I'm so glad they helped you. I can't wait to get them too. Really need a reliable source 🙏

YES very sure of Dr.alishrooms. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.

Congrats! I'm really happy for you that your wife decided to help you. I always admire those who beat their addiction. Knowing it's possible to fix your life knowing there's people out there that have done what I thought was impossible gives me hope I will make it through as well. Those who share their experiences don't know how much it helps when you're about to give up, it gives you the strength knowing somone who actully know what it's like to go through this tell you it's possible, it's not the same somone telling you you can do it when they have no idea what it's like, but hearing somone who knows what it's like that helps a lot since you understand it firsthand and made it out gives so much hope. so thanks for sharing.

How do I reach out to him? Is he on insta

Yes he's Dr.alishrooms.Shrooms to me is a natrual healer. I know a guy who has used mushrooms in the same way and they have really helped him. mah dudes have safe trips all.

@Mini Marcle you gotta really want it fam. Good luck and strength 💪🏾

The truth only way to get clean have to go all the way threw it...

Literal torture

@@IAmSlimetoright

A little?!? It's literally hell.

I know right! Its almost scary how many Dr's and patients are miss informed and or miss lead to think or believe one subjective to just one another opinion....

Fr

Dude when I first got addicted to fentenyl 5 years ago. Right when they first started taking over as the fake blues. I went to my pcp doctor (primary care doctor) I said I need help with opiod addiction and he referred me to another doctors office. I called them asap and the number was to a pain management clinic who prescribed pain pills and physical therapy.. so yes it's disgusting how many doctors out there are oblivious to the real medical info needed to treat patients. This is how exactly the opiod problem started by misinformation from the pharmaceutical companies pushing misinformation from every doctor from Cali to new York

Look up Ryan Donnelly addiction

I agree, Some people feel this existential angst and sadness, and don't even articulate it - they just know they feel an overwhelming anxiety and no one can understand it or tell them whey they feel this way. Dr B 'gets it'.

I was on heroine for 3 years.when I went to rehab they gave me methadone maintenance witch if I knew what it was I would have never got it.I was on for14years from 30 all the way 180mil so 11months ago I got off it took me 7months to get off . My clinic says it would be took 2years but I didn’t want that I was done with it .I had 4 seizure high temperature rash I had everything but I made it I refused all medicines to help me I did it but today my body is still hurting not sleeping they did give serequal for sleep but I still wake up 10 times .what am asking is y am still going through some pain ,no energy.

Hi Freddy, there is a definite art to tapering off Suboxone isn't there and having strips makes it so much easier. Personally, it took me 3 years to taper down from 12 mg to zero and towards the end I was cutting 2 mg strips into 8 equal 0.25 mg pieces. I was absolutely gob smacked at how powerful 0.25 mg was. I went 0.25 mg daily then to 0.25 mg every 2nd day, then every 3rd and so on but it still took a long time before I could go off it entirely. Once off it, I would say it still took a good couple of years to say I felt 'ok' and that was helped along with exercise and nutrition. It was a long, long, long road back…

mark wulff Omg it took that long to feel normal am only at 11 months but I came off 180 mil of methadone from being on it 14 years . I don’t feel no desire to go back not after everything I been through and accomplished in my life am 39 years it was time to get off . I still fell leg pain and can’t sleep.They gave me serequal for sleep but I still wake up at night like 7 times . What do you think might help for no energy no sleep and leg pain .I don’t take nothing but the serequal witch I want it to stay that way . If you could give me some info on it I appreciate it.

mark wulff Forgot to say I did my detox in 7months .The clinic I was going to told me it would of took 3/4years but I choose to do it faster. You think cause I was on for 14 years it’s gonna take a while to get it out my system or is it out and am just being overdramatic lol

@@marilynb9161 Hi Marilyn, I will answer as briefly as I can but at the same time I don't want to over step the mark by hijacking Dr B's post. It is a long and involved answer with many solutions but one of the hardest opiate withdrawal symptoms to deal with is lack of energy, or better said, EXTREME FATIGUE. Whether you’re in the acute or post-acute opiate withdrawal phase, getting energy can feel impossible. Many people have suffered from this debilitating shortage of energy for days, weeks, and even months after stopping the use of opiates. Unfortunately there is no fast track back but there is so much we can do to help the healing process. There are many nutrients, supplements and activities we can engage in to help getting back to normal. In a nutshell, when we take opioids whether prescribed or not, our brains get a surge of neurotransmitters (NT's) mainly dopamine which gives us that euphoria. In as little as 2 to 4 weeks our brains detecting the surge in NT's start to produce less and less of our own NT's which is vital to our normal functioning. It doesn't take long before the brain becomes extremely reliant on the opioid to do that. That is why initially we feel so good on opioids but not to far down the track we find we need the opioid to just feel 'normal'. Opioids and all drugs pretty much destroy your body and brain’s production of it’s own natural feel good chemicals. This creates a neurotransmitter imbalance or chemical deficiency and depending on the deficiency it can cause a wide range of physical, mental and emotional health problems if not treated correctly. When your neurotransmitters are low or imbalanced, like they almost always are after addiction, you will likely feel flat, lifeless, depressed, nervous, anxious, stressed and unable to enjoy the things that use to bring you pleasure and joy in life. It is the deficiency in our neurotransmitter levels which virtually causes all of our withdrawal symptoms. Anyway, that is the extreme short version and once again I don't want to show bad manners by hijacking Dr B's post. I would be happy to email you some helpful information if that is permitted (mark.wulff11@gmail.com). I have absolutely no financial or any kind of vested interest whatsoever in any information I provide and it is all evidence based. Having been there I try to help as many people as I possibly can.

WAY TO GO!

Howd you get clean from fentanyl?

@@amandavalesquez8059 u dont

@@bigsteppa4649 what happened? We fall off the wagon so it’s better to stay on suboxone and wean off while your mind gets time to recoup. 1. Delete all dealer numbers 2. Delete all contact from users. 3. Eat healthy and drink water 4. Begin on suboxone and taper.

@Glow Bright they gave u too much subs, or u misused them, OR u took them too early on

Congratulations!!

How long did it take for you to feel normal? Im quitting tomorrow i been weaning myself off for a week.

@@thetruth6877 update ??

Awesome news..I hope to get that time under me. I'm only 7 days cold turkey withdrawal clean though. I know I can't endure sickness like this again. I refuse to do that again.

Wholly crap! What a winner! You got this 👍🏼 fight the good fight!

I know exactly what you mean, desperately needing sleep but not being able to keep your arms and legs from moving every 5 seconds….ugh

Yea that’s what I’m feeling. Thanks for pointing it out

​@@brianp3972Clonidine works absolute wonders for this. Ask a doctor for that if safe to use.

Thank you for this. I am so high from my anxiety I want to give up. But I effing refuse. I just wish I didn't have my kid going through all thus.

@@melissaturner78 how are you today?

You can do it!

Who be able to quit from opiates addiction Cold turkey are the strong person and be able to stay away from the drugs are the strongest person. It's hard but remember you are not alone, many people are more worse life than you still keep fighting

you got this

Stay prayed up!!! The Lord Jesus Christ has your back!!! Keep us posted☺️.

I have convulsions if I take half a quarter off my dose. Got a Dr to work with me and she almost got me arrested by LYING TO A PHARMACIST saying she didn't know about a refill but my emails prior to that say otherwise! She even wrote a plan to go with my last refill from my old Dr. I don't trust her with my life. Took me five years of begging her and she ALWAYS said "short half life. I can have u off in 5 days or 14 if u wanna take it slow". But this time I brought in a whole presentation. And she listened. But lied!!! And she sometimes is nice and sometimes goes off on me telling me I'm not smart ... What do I do? When I said I MIGHT have found a Dr to take over she said no she'll do it and then tried saying I hoarder my MAT meds when I REALLY CTd them for a benzo wise listed Dr to save my life (she said stop immediately and she'd help me when I tested clean). 6 months went by and I was STILL in full blown withdrawal. So I had extra meds. She threatened me and said I'm Dr shopping when I've never seen any Dr or gotten any different meds from anyone except a dentist wrote me an antibiotic!

Thank you so much! Very appreciated!

@@DrBAddictionRecovery you have no idea how BAD most addiction Drs are.......and IGNORANT. It is shameful.

@@icepick859 I have years of experience with opioid use and withdrawal. I am more than happy to speak with you or answer any questions. You posted this almost two weeks ago, so I hope you are doing okay. Though with fentanyl if you had kept at it you should be out of the woods now for the most part. Please respond to this comment if you'd like to chat!

@@eziekkiel5876 I’m trying to get off of oxy 30s I’ve been snorting these for 9 months on & off and when I try to quit It’s literal hell if you have any tips for the withdraws I’ll take some advice

@@joeweeks7191 Man, there's so much to say. It's not going to be easy, but there are ways to make it near tolerable. If you can muster up the willpower, you should start by slowly lowering your daily intake. Do that until you can get the dose as low as possible. Though I'm telling you now that will be very difficult to do that on your own without a trusted person to monitor your intake and provide you with moral and psychological support. You will not be able to quit a severe dependence without SOME form of support from at least one or more persons. There are medications you can use to dampen the effects of some withdrawal symptoms such as benzodiazepines but those are also highly addictive and you don't want to start another addiction. So use with extreme caution. 9 months is not a terribly long addiction. I know the withdrawals will still suck real bad. But you should quit now before it ruins the rest of your life. Oxycodone has a similar half-life to morphine but is almost twice as strong. And because you are snorting them, the drug is absorbed more rapidly. This also means it will leave your body quicker. What this means for you is that your withdrawal will start quicker, but it will also be shorter in duration. After about 7 days of total abstinence, you would be over 80-90% of the withdrawal. You won't feel completely normal, but the vast majority of the pain and anguish that makes it "hell on earth" should be over and you will feel like yourself again soon. Every time during withdrawal when hours feel like days you must remind yourself THAT IT WILL END. Only 7 days to go, 6, 5 et cetera. Do things to distract yourself like taking a walk. Even doing things like taking a hot bath and then immediately taking a cold shower. Doing this will cause your brain to release larger than normal amounts of dopamine. All these things you can do on your own. But your best bet is to go to an actual place that treats addiction. Google will provide ratings for the ones in your area. Of course this is not possible for everyone. I live in Canada and since addiction is a healthcare problem, addiction treatment is free of charge just like going to any other doctor. Anyways I've typed enough for now lol. If you want to talk more about it or have any questions, please just respond to my comment.

YES...

And how long did it last for you? Honestly...was it weeks or a month or 2 or 3 til you felt like you no longer needed to feel like you had a "blanket " over your world perception.?

RLS is awful for me

Fentanyl stuck with me longer than for most everyone else. 7-9 days before I give in and take something... STILL too soon for subutex! Omg precipitated wds are no joke. I guess I've been through it probably 60 times.

And I like what he said about the difference between craving and doing it just so you can function. I never "craved" it. I never took enough to get "high". Just enough for the symptoms to abate. I just continued doing It to feel normal.

My brother married to a woman who is an a long term opoid user. He is old and she is much younger. She will not tell her Dr. About her scary abuse she mixes her drugs. We have no idea what she has taken..she takes a very high doses of oxycodone. And oxymoron. She rarely has bowel movements doesn't hardly eat. She shakes sweats and rushes around can't sleep throws up almost everyday has severe migraines and is now loosing control of her bowels. Went from years of constipation to now frequent bouts of diarrhea 😢we all want her to get help. She says their my prescriptions.

Hang in there, I’ve been taking the 80mg green Oxys for like a few years now, on and off, and decided this week to quit cold turkey. I just beat the physical symptoms a few days ago, and now the mental/emotional symptoms are fading as well. God I feel so much better. I literally woke up this morning with no body aches or cravings. I still have 6 pills left, but if I can go another week without touching them, I’ll flush them down the toilet.

@@abel_underwater how did you get on? Did you manage to flush them? I hope you’re ok

Take a long hot shower and make a cup of warm milk to help with sleep tbh when i was using (I did anything i can get my hands on) thats what would help me i take a hot bath and sometimes I would even fall asleep in the bath but I always made a cup of warm milk after cause it helped me sleep and with my body aches try to sleep as much as you can cause sleeping or a bath always helped me

@@Stephen-vx2gq I actually did! Hardest decision of my life because I took them primarily out of boredom, not out of necessity😔 looking back, I was so selfish because actual ppl could’ve used them while I was only doing them recreationally. It made everything better and warmer, but I understand those are temporary feelings, and being off them is better in the long run

@@abel_underwater well done for getting rid of them and off them, I stopped the opiates but was still taking benzodiazepines so it’s been a little complicated. I’d like to think I’m nearly there now

Ty Dr. B.. Im sober 3yr this Feb. 2021. Im on Suboxone & doing GREAT . 6 WEEKS AGO I RELAPSED. After only 2 weeks I tried to go back on my Suboxone.....AND ....OMG..OMG..OMG ! I GOT SOOO SICK.

NOW...... omg ! Qhat ia this crap??please help me know what IM DOING WRONG

3 days feel like 3 weeks.

@@anitaarhotakis7748 don't take the suboxone until you're properly in withdrawal. it has a blocking effect that induces severe withdrawal if you still have opioids in your system.

@Malcolm Caden yeah fuck it for you, fair do's and i hate the shit also. Ive tried most all treatments and would rather just endure through the few days it takes to become functional. The only decent method of ccoming off ive accomplished without severe pain etc i ever experienced was a detox 5 clinic ( at the time was the name )They put you under anesthetic, then when you're out pump you fill of some opiate flushing system then wake you ip at the end of the week. That cost m 5 gees around 10 years back but anyone wjo can afford and is that desperateit's the least painful method i lknew. I also used to hear about something called ibugain i think, might be mixing the mame up but there was a network of places doing it, pretty much illegaly but they helped many an addict quit with theit method and tge relapse rates was tiny. There,'s many ways to make it easier but the work only just begins at that point

Thank you for the kind words

Congratulations day 4 for me just got prescribed some seroquel hope this helps me

@@Welovelife614 My friend, a few undervalued strategies: (1) Diet. Avoid sugary and processed foods, as those will give you a shot of quick energy, but you will crash within minutes, making you feel worn out and lazy. Natural is the way to go, things like fruits, vegetables, legumes, and roots. (2) Exercise. Endorphins, the body's natural opioids, are released as you exercise, the reason many people get "addicted" to running, weight lifting, and even stretching. Those chemicals will make you feel fantastic, even after a tiring workout. (3) Faith! Even after five years clean, you may get the occasional craving. However, a positive attitude goes far! "I'm gonna try" is a set-up for failure. Instead, "I'm gonna do it" is better, as the mind follows the body. This is where discipline plays a crucial role! It reminds me of boot camp. At times, I wanted to quit, as those nasty drill sergeants were doing everything possible to break recruits. But, I kept telling myself, "hang in there," this is going away soon, and boot camp will be a bad memory. Likewise, in recovery the first few weeks are hell. Literally!! But as your brain heals, so does your mindset. It's paramount that you keep busy, as doing nothing is = planning a hit. The first few weeks will determine outcomes. You put the same amount of energy (at a minimum) as you did when active.Good luck, my friend. God is with you. Ask Him to DO IT FOR YOU, NOT to help you do it.

Most doctor have 0 ethics these days . They totally screw you up and do harm for as much money as they can make off you then do not care if you live or die.

I can’t believe how much methadone these people put you guys on nobody should be above 80 to 120 mg max even that would be an extreme dose they should put most people on 20 to 30 mg a day

Dr B please do a video on the danger of using suboxone before the opioid has left your system.

Stop now before your dosage goes up! Suffer for a few days and it will go away. You can do it!

Late reply but try magnesium to calm muscles. Citrate is good and glycinate is better (glycine works to calm muscles along with mg). I’ve used it for yrs and it works. Only Side effect of you take too much (even 900mg is safe) is loose stool and since opiates often constipate it balances out. You can also buy magnesium gel and apply it right to your legs it might sting a bit but it helps. Best of luck.
