If a user ceases consumption of opiates after developing dependence, they will experience withdrawal. Physical withdrawal from heroin peaks on the 3rd or 4th day, and is pretty much over by the 8th day. Level of severity and types of withdrawal symptoms experienced can be very individual. A user consuming more each day will tend to have more severe symptoms than a friend using less, but gender, age, state of physical and mental health, and many other thing can affect this. Withdrawal symptoms include aches and pains, sweating, itches, sneezing, sleep disturbances, hallucinations in cases of heavy use, and vomiting and nausea.
