Getting rid of heroin addiction is a difficult decision to make, especially given the necessary withdrawal and withdrawal procedures. Because we are used to the adverse effects of daily detoxification, detoxification is a huge obstacle to treatment.

By preparing mentally for detoxification, you can help prepare for this process. The following is useful information on detoxification and detoxification to help prepare for this important recovery phase.

Effect of heroin on brain

Heroin is a highly toxic illegal drug, which can rapidly improve tolerance. The use of heroin will have a strong reaction to brain chemicals, attached to the pain and pleasure centered opium receptors in the brain. Overflow of dopamine can cause “impulses” when injecting, inhaling or inhaling heroin, which are recorded as happy events by the brain’s compensation system.

This powerful drug causes continuous changes in brain cells, eventually stopping the brain from naturally producing dopamine. When individuals cannot experience happiness, it will lead to higher doses. Chemical dependence eventually develops, which can lead to very uncomfortable flu like withdrawal symptoms. At this point, patients need drugs(“doping sickness”) to avoid getting sick.

Heroin withdrawal symptoms and timeline

The severity of heroin withdrawal depends on the time and daily dosage of heroin used by individuals. When the body begins to respond to a lack of medication, symptoms usually occur within 6-12 hours after the last medication. Withdrawal symptoms may be unpleasant, but can be controlled through appropriate medical and psychological support.
