Opiate abuse is a serious problem in the United States. Many people misuse opiates in order to ease pain or feel relaxed. Continuous drug abuse can cause anyone to develop an opiate dependence and then an addiction. Anybody who struggles with opiate addiction can get help through addiction treatment services at a women’s addiction treatment center, even if they’ve been living with it for years.

SIGNS OF OPIATE ADDICTION

People who have a drug addiction won’t be able to hide it. They can try, but there will always be signs of their drug abuse problems. Those who struggle with addiction often have problems with school, work, or other serious obligations. They’ll be absent from class, take days off, and miss day-to-day important information. This causes their productivity and output to decrease. That can impact grades or income.
People struggling with opiate abuse need prescriptions in order to get the pills that they’re addicted to. These individuals may see different doctors to get various prescriptions for the same medication. If that happens, there may be many pill bottles around their house or on their person. They may even make excuses to take the medication around other people.

Continuous visits to the doctor and prescription fills are expensive. People with a prescription drug abuse problem will use a lot of their money on drugs. They may ask family members or friends for money. If they’re desperate enough, they may even steal to get the money to fuel their habit. The signs of opiate addiction are similar to the signs of opioid addiction. Learn more about the differences between opiates and opioids.

SYMPTOMS OF OPIATE ADDICTION WITHDRAWAL

People with an addiction will go through opiate withdrawal when they stop using. Withdrawal symptoms usually start 12 to 24 hours after an individual last uses the medication. Symptoms range from moderate to severe depending on the person, how much they use, and how long they’ve been using. Some common symptoms include:
  • Anxiety
  • Cramping
  • Diarrhea
  • Insomnia
  • Nausea
  • Sweating
  • Vomiting

THE IMPORTANCE OF PROFESSIONAL OPIATE ADDICTION TREATMENT

Opiate withdrawal isn’t deadly most of the time. However, it’s still painful. Many people who try to quit on their own go back to opiates just to ease those symptoms. That return can quickly result in an overdose, so it is important to understand the opiate overdose timeline and symptoms.

When someone struggles with an addiction, they usually have a tolerance for the drug. That means they’ll need more of it in order to feel the effects they felt when they first used. If they stop using, their tolerance decreases. People who try to quit and then relapse are at a higher risk for an overdose, since their tolerance is lower, and they’ll likely use the same amount they used in the past.
Addiction treatment services go beyond help with withdrawal though. People who enter treatment learn how to live without opiates. This includes finding healthier ways to cope with spiritual, emotional, and physical pain.
