What are opioids? Opioids include painkillers and heroin. These substances alter how the brain reacts to pain stimuli. Opioids also produce a high as a result of how the drug activates the brain’s reward and pleasure centers.
Opioid withdrawal symptoms range greatly in severity, depending on a variety of factors. Elements that determine the severity of withdrawal include the length of usage, the volume of usage, the drug of choice, and the presence of co-occurring mental conditions, like anxiety and depression. Studies also suggest that biological and environmental factors, such as having parents who struggle with addiction, past traumas, or extremely stressful and/or non-supportive lifestyles also determine the severity of dependence and withdrawal.
A few early withdrawal symptoms include muscle aches, watery eyes, nausea, anxiety, and insomnia.
Later stage symptoms include nausea and vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal cramps, depression, and a strong craving for more of the drug.
