I cant really comment on that prescription stuff...but the OTC stuff like the Kava and other natural stuff should help. And keep in mind, I cant comment on the prescription stuff on whether you should use it or not because I'm not a doctor and dont know your health history...ect. Basically, its against the forum rules.

Anyways, Ive been clean from a long time IV heroin addiction for 4 and 1/2 years now. Ive detoxed many times and to be honest, I found it best and faster when I just bit the bullet and went cold turkey. Thats just me though. I mean...I did the Kava Kava and natural stuff but no script stuff and you cant taper off Herion. It just dont work cus you dont know whats in it and the strength. Every bag is a different strength so it dont work. Anyways, I wish you the best. Just keep in mind the discomfort you are feeling is only temporary. God Bless

It will ease the wd symptoms but it's still going to be hard.
Take lots of hot baths with Epsom salts
Try to keep busy and walk outside. Dont just sit on the couch it makes time go by way slower.
Good luck !!  When I was wd my first week I  stayed on Thai site a lot, just reading all the stories really helped

Yes take all the vitamins you have.

Not sure about the St. John's wort.

Iwoyld not do the muscle relaxer at all

I don't know much about klonopin. Is it like the xanax?

Now as for the xanax it is recommended you don't use it. However I detoxed from heroin too and it is bad.  If you must, break the xanax in 1/2 and only take when you absolutely must. It will help you feel better. Maybe twice a day. Only for the 1st 4-5 days. Then get rid if it.

Now if you can't do that, you have to get rid of them now.

But first - do you take xanax regularly or just have for right now? If you take them regularly you have to taper them down. Benzo detox is different. It can cause seizures.

So good luck. You can do this. 1st 5 days will be bad. It will get better after that. By 14 days you should be much better.
