[|Human|] Im brand new to this...actually all substance abuse communitys! I am also new living my days without the mmt clinic after 10 yrs there! I recently quit.....its been PURE HELL even though I did a 7 day out patient detox there.....I dropped from 50 mg to 0 in 7 days...today is the BIG 1wk clean milestone... But, I feel like you think...AWFUL!  The symptoms are hell,...no energy, aggitation like youve never experienced, pain everywhere and many doubts including hopelessness, etc....I havent slept in 7 days...I feel pain all over and just dieing to know when this will stop? WHEN WILL I FUNCTION NORMALLY  AGAIN...? How do fix my brain? How can I restore the receptors and restore myself back to a functioning woman again? Thank you in advance...I know the time these questions must take from your schedule! ;)
[|AI|]  Hi, Yes it would feel new and different after the long battle. But it is great that you were successful thus far. Make sure it remains this way. Feeling low on energy and motivation, some irritability during the initial phase is expected because of the long term psychological dependence that you had. If these symptoms are severe and hampers your daily functioning then this may need to be taken care of, by a professional. You also report disturbed sleep in the past 7 days apart from ideas of hopelessness. Get yourself evaluated by a psychiatrist for these complaints. You will have to be patient till you can revert to your old self again. 10 years is a long time, and you will need to give your body time, there is no shortcut. The longer your body is free of the Chat Doctor.  To aid with preventing any relapse there are anti-craving agents that may be used under supervision apart from psychological management like relapse prevention therapy (administered by a clinical psychologist). You can contact your psychiatrist regarding this. Hope this helps,
