Fentanyl withdrawal hell

I am into day 7 or so no fentanyl and I am about to lose my mind. The physical effects are really wearing me down.I can make it about 5 hours or so without panicking but the anticipation of what I know is coming is gettin bad.Not much of anything helps calm me. to be honest I am getting to the point of just not caring anymore. Anyone else ever feel like that?

Jeff:

I have definately experienced the panic and sorted emotions when I was getting of fentanyl.

Between the physical and mental aspects it is tough to get through.

Hell does adequately describe the experience.  

Hang tough though you will be so glad when it is over and the drug is gone.

Hang in there! It is rough.  I cannot even remember what happened the week I went without it.  I would try and sleep as much as you can.  Sleeping is what got me through that week of hell! I am here if you need to talk.  Good luck!

I'm sure all of us have felt that way. I know I have.

What are some of the physical effects you're having?  Maybe we can help with that.
We're full of suggestions here!!
