Help is available: Withdrawing from opiates and sedatives requires a doctor's help. It can be very uncomfortable or even dangerous to try to do on your own. Addiction medicine doctors are trained to help people just like you. These doctors know how hard it is to decide to stop such substances, and will understand the courage you show in stepping up in this way. They will work with you on withdrawal symptoms.

Opiod withdrawal: Opiod withdrawal will make you sick but won't harm you. Benzodiazepine (if that's your sedative) can be fatal. These drugs together have claimed lives of many celebrities and regulars. You should not be on either at a tender age of 21.
