Withdrawal can be a difficult
Symptoms of opioid withdrawal
Symptoms of opioid withdrawal can be really awful, and if you have any kind of medical condition I think medical attention is a good idea. A lot of people say that withdrawal from methadone is even worse than withdrawal from heroin. It can be really hard on your body and medical supervision can help keep you safe.
Medical attention can also make withdrawal a lot easier than quitting on your own, because a professional can help you taper your dosage of methadone most effectively to avoid symptoms and can make you more comfortable by treating the symptoms you have.
