My son has been using heroin for a couple of years. He quit two days ago and is going through withdrawl. Although he is very sick and in pain, he has chosen not to seek medical attention for treatment. How long does it take to withdraw from heavy heroin use without treatment?

hang in there mom
its gonna peak day 3 or 4, be at its absolute worst, then he will slowly get better by the end of the week, day 7 hell be up and about and right as rain, well better than you have seen him feeling recently anyway
If you have a good doctor there a whole raft of meds out there that can make this ALOT easier or if you have any muscle relaxants or valium type drugs slip him a few and he will definately apprecite it.
and speaking as an ex user, getting off is one thing, I did so many stay at home grit my teeth detoxes, but its the staying off thats really hard. Just be there for him and dont be too disappointed if he falls off the wagon.
