Not always, a lot of the time they just get really sick...
I had a glimpse into that horrible world once in Nebraska.
My meds were late and I was really, really "dope sick". They had me on Oxycodones at the time. I cannot remember a worse time feeling as bad. It was like every cell in my body was pulsating and wanting to burst. Miraculously, I found just one pill that had gotten accidentally spilled in a drawer. That one pill made me feel better immediately. The whole experience was a life changer.
I immediately called the hotline nurse and got off that crap. They gave me Methadone for the transition. That stuff made me puke a lot, but it worked to transition me off Oxys and get on something more sane that I have been on ever since. No issues at all.
