How do I recognize a withdrawal

These are early signs of withdrawal:

• slight shaking
• nervous and irritable feelings
• sweating
• trouble eating and sleeping
• aches all over the body
• nausea, vomiting, stomach pain

These signs may go away on their own, or they may get stronger. If they do, you should go to a health worker immediately.
