When someone decides to stop using fentanyl, the first hurdle is withdrawal. For many families who come to Ranch Creek Recovery, the stories are the same: a loved one tried to quit “cold turkey,” got violently sick within hours, and returned to fentanyl use just to stop the pain. That cycle keeps people trapped. But remember, successful detox and recovery is possible, here are a few success stories from our clients.
