Yes it's horrible. Many of us have been through withdrawal. I hope you manage to get off the last 0.5mg. I had to use opioids and cannabis to deal with the withdrawal symptoms.Wishing you strength.

I withdrew from fentanyl, but all withdrawal experiences are similar.

I'm on opioids now for RLS, having tried Pramipexol at one stage.
