The 5 Stages of Meth Withdrawal
Ridding your body of the toxins that meth has put into it takes professional care and medical supervision. The symptoms and experiences that people go through in this process happen in five stages. With the right team of medical, psychiatric, and holistic addiction specialists, each stage can be managed safely.
The 5 stages of meth withdrawal are:
- Withdrawal, which may cause highly unpleasant symptoms, including fatigue, low moods, poor sleep, irritability, and difficulty concentrating. This stage lasts from day one to day 15.
- Honeymoon, during which time people feel a boost in energy, mood, confidence, and outlook. The risk during this stage is that people get overly optimistic and attempt to stop rehab at this point, leading to relapse. This stage will last from day 16 to day 45.
- The Wall, a stage when those in recovery are highly vulnerable to relapse. People may experience less energy, lack of interest in activities, poor sleep, and difficulty concentrating. It’s important that at this stage to remember that these symptoms will pass. “The wall” lasts from day 46 to day 120.
- Adjustment, when people tend to finally feel they are “over the hump” of their worst symptoms. This is when people may be returning to work, family, or other activities, adjusting to sober living. This stage lasts from day 121 to day 180.
- Resolution, at which point the person has been sober for six months already. At this stage, people can regularly practice the skills they learned to maintain sobriety and avoid relapse. This is the final stage and lasts from day 180 onward.
The first two weeks of meth recovery will be the most difficult. But with time, and a team of compassionate specialists, you can get through each stage and achieve long-term sobriety. After rehab is completed, recovery isn’t finished. Meth addiction recovery takes a lifetime of choosing sobriety every day.
