Opioid addiction is the fastest-growing problem that Americans face each year. These potent drugs can cause many lasting effects, compromising the life of the user and the user’s loved ones. If you’re struggling with an addiction to opiates, including painkillers or heroin, life-saving help is available. Quality addiction treatment services at a women’s addiction treatment center that include psychotherapy are the most effective form of treatment for your problem.

WHAT ARE OPIOIDS?

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.
The drugs play on the body’s central nervous system, meaning that they affect the brain and cardiovascular and respiratory systems. Opioids cause heart rate, respiration, blood pressure, and body temperature to decrease while increasing feelings of pleasure.

Habitual use of opioid drugs changes an individual’s brain chemistry, thus increasing the risk of physical and psychological dependence. Once an individual develops a dependence, the body has begun to believe that it needs the drug to feel normal” or to function properly. If the user attempts to quit using opioids, withdrawal symptoms may begin to appear in as little as a few hours after the last dose. Symptoms also sometimes show up between doses if the user generally takes a high dose.

SYMPTOMS OF OPIOID WITHDRAWAL

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.

There’s no exact timeline for opioid withdrawal since symptoms vary from person to person. Typically, however, early withdrawal symptoms begin within six-12 hours in the case of short-acting opiates. For longer-acting opioids, withdrawal may take 30 hours to begin.

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.
