Are there people who still want to live even when facing the need of opioid withdrawal cold turkey?

[Alex Fermentopathy]

Have you heard of such people?
PS: I was never taking drugs, just curious.

I don't think I understand. Opiates withdrawal is painful and messy. I have a 3rd time to go eventually. Done it twice, but on a legal natural herb drug. It never made me want to suicide. Wanting to suicide made me want to use the drug.

I stoped both fentanyl and methadone cold turkey.

"Don't ask me how I did it, I just did it, it was hard."

I stopped methadone about a year ago (cold turkey) and still have serious withdrawal symptoms.
