Cocaine withdrawal isn't that bad. It's all mental. You might get anxious or depressed and cocaine will be the only thing you think about for a while, but that's it.

Benzo or alcohol withdrawals will actually kill you. Those need to be handled with medical assistance.

Opioid withdrawal isn't quite that dangerous, but it certainly will make you want to die.

This man speaks truth. Take it from someone who used to work at local Crisis Intervention center.

That's beside my entire native side of the family being a bunch of scummy abusive addicts who admittedly knew how to party.

Watching people die yearly in your twenties while the others who made it through slowly wither away on random Facebook updates people share with me gets sad/old quick.
