Drug Detoxification Withdrawal Symptoms

Research on substance withdrawal shows that when you abruptly discontinue using different drugs, you may have various symptoms; these symptoms - and their severity - will vary from patient to patient.

Some factors that could potentially influence your withdrawal experience as you undergo detoxification include:

How long you were addicted; using drugs on a daily basis for a long time could cause you to develop tolerance, which means that your withdrawal might be more severe.

The combination of substances you were abusing; in many situations, you will find that those addicted to more than one substance might experience unique withdrawal with a myriad of unusual symptoms because one substance could make the others worse.

The dosage of the drugs you were abusing when you enrolled in the detoxification program in Ledyard, Connecticut. If a person has been abusing drugs or alcohol for an extended amount of time, they may have developed a tolerance; basically, they may have to increase their usual dose incrementally to feel the effects that they want. Unfortunately, such high doses may cause intense and severe withdrawal when you decide to stop using.

If there are any dual-diagnosis disorders; people with mental health issues like anxiety and depression or physical issues like chronic pain or insomnia might experience amplified withdrawal symptoms and significant distress.

The half life of the intoxicating substances; drugs with a short half life trigger more immediate withdrawal symptoms while long-acting substances might cause your withdrawal syndrome to be delayed for hours or days.

Recent studies on addiction rehabilitation show that when you go through detoxification, you might develop any of the following withdrawal symptoms:

  • Agitation
  • Chills
  • Cravings
  • Flu-like symptoms, which could include vomiting, nausea, headache, and runny nose
  • Irritability
  • Mood swings
  • Shaking
  • Sleep disturbances and insomnia
  • Sweating
  • Tremors

Lastly, it is imperative that you undergo detoxification in an accredited facility in Ledyard to make sure that all these potential withdrawal symptoms are managed and that you do not give in to the temptation to relapse.
