Anyone else feel so… good when you stop?

5 year daily user. Quite heavy. Sometimes, I’ll go about 18-24 hours without dosing. It’s almost always unintentional.

After about 18-24 hours without dosing, often, I’ll wake up in the throes of W/D - running nose, abdominal discomfort, restlessness, etc. However, my brain and mind feel.. fucking incredible?

Little things seem important again in this state. Music sounds amazing, and nostalgic. I unlock my memories and can access them more easily. My life feels like a fantasy novel, where I’m no longer a side character, but instead the protagonist.

What is this feeling? Why is there such a “twilight” state to quitting? My body and mind disagree with each other, the former upset and the latter awakened.

Does anybody else experience this during/after withdrawal?
