What is Heroin Addiction?

Heroin is a powerful opioid that hijacks the brain’s reward system, leading to intense physical and psychological dependence. This dangerous drug can quickly spiral into chronic substance use disorder, where the body craves more to avoid painful withdrawal symptoms. Left untreated, heroin addiction significantly increases the risk of overdose and death. While recovery may feel impossible, the right support system can make healing achievable and lasting.

Heroin Withdrawal

Withdrawal from heroin can be physically and emotionally challenging, but it’s a necessary step toward reclaiming your life. Heroin alters the brain’s chemistry, and when you stop using it, your body needs time to adjust. This adjustment period can be uncomfortable, with symptoms ranging from mild to severe. However, withdrawal is also the first sign that your body is starting to heal, and with the right care, it can be managed safely.

  1. First 12 hours: Symptoms begin, often with anxiety and muscle aches
