My mom is overwhelmed with her opiate addiction, and I want to get her help. What can I say to her when she asks how long withdrawal symptoms will last?

Tell your mom that symptoms will appear as early as early as 6-12 hours after the last dose for short-acting opiates and 30 hours for long-acting opiates. Her symptoms will be the most painful around 72 hours after, but she could experience discomfort for more than a month. Coming from someone who has gone through it, it is well worth it to get rid of your opiate addiction despite the withdrawal pains.
