In answer to your question. The physical signs of narcotic withdrawl will vary from person to person, but some of the main ones are: diarreah, body aches, arm/leg twitching almost like electric shocks are running through your body, not being able to fall/stay asleep, an overwhelming feeling of un-wellbeing.........

Hope this is helpful. if you want to know more, there really are alot of very helpful people on this board, and way more info and good advice than you thought possible.

If you need support getting off of vics or whatever, you have definitely found the right place!!!
