Ah thats a cunt man. But a relapse doesnt have to mean the end of your sobriety, just a bump in the road. I have honestly felt like kratom stopped me from using more than anything else, doesnt feel like just swapping one drug for another as i see it differently, its a plant medicine sort of thing! It doesnt get you mega high, but helps with cravings and fills the psychological hole. Id look into that and in the mean time a stint of benzos can help with the worst of it, or switching to a short run of extended release opioid medication to slow the exit from the bloodstream.  just easy to get dependent on either of them too. My biggest problem was always staying off alcohol, and i kicked that again after a multiple month relapse, so it can be done man. WDs depend on your metabolism and use etc so different for everyone. Heroin has a really short half life, then its metabolites. Nasty few days, followed by a shitty week but then you are walking uphill towards the sunlight!!
Not fun man but remember, opioid withdrawals wont kill you -booze or benzo WDs can!- but getting a bag with a clump of fentanyl or iso in it will knock you off pretty fucking quick. Hang in there and feel free to sing out for support
