Hello, Stopping narcotics after consuming for long time causes withdrawal symptom like body pain, running nose, teary eyes, loose motion etc. It can also cause anxiety, depression, mood symptoms etc. To stop consuming most important thing required are persistent motivation and good detoxification measure. There are various detoxification treatment available with high success rate. After detoxification you can be started on a antagonist medicine to avoid relapse. You can consult me or nearby psychiatric clinic for the same. Best Wishes.
