In some cases, I would agree - heroin withdrawal is highly dangerous and must be medically managed to be safe. I get that. I don't get having them hooked on Methadone for the rest of their lives.
Actually alcohol and benzodiazepine withdrawal is much more dangerous and kills people. Opiate withdrawal just makes you think you are gonna die. Opiate withdrawal rarely ever kills someone but still needs to be medically supervised

is a combination of willpower and other support structures (IMHO)
Most people with the disease of addiction need to be medically helped in a medical environment to get through the early withdrawals. After that it is certainly about willingness and outside help.
