Whats worse heroin detox or pill detox?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Heroin worse: I think heroin detox is worse. You have to be on Methadone for life from what i've seen. Pill detox is also hard though, but they have meds like Suboxone to help get off the pills. Not encouraging you to overdose on these things though.
