I was on 100mg prescribed for pain Fentanyl for 25 years that stopped working. It took me a year of absolute day and night hell to get off it so I can relate to users hooked on this type of stuff. You just have to focus on 😢😢one minute at a time and be determined never to give up just keep getting through the impossible but it’s worth it in the end thing improve very slowly after three months. I still have all the muscle pain to live with but the sweats and skin crawls have stopped I have learnt to use rest and avoid any pain triggers like standing too long, it’s far better than any addiction and suffering withdrawals. Good luck to any fellow sufferers.
