Opiate withdrawal: Day six congratulations! The mental part will be the worst for you: sadness, depression, craving and anxiety. It can take some time before everything returns to normal, but everyone is different. Try getting an extra support form the AA meetings or from your doctor. Take care.

Not much longer!: Most people will average 3-7 days. Your dose is not that high and I would have expected this to be over by now. Hang in there, even on the longer side another 1-3 at the most. I believe it will be on the shorter side.

About down...: I am proud of you for quitting the use of opioids. You've already been through the worst and the physical withdrawal symptoms should subside very soon. Please continue with a solid support network, such as NA, for the psychological dependence issues.
