Post-Acute Withdrawal Syndrome (PAWS) refers to a set of symptoms that persist after the acute phase of withdrawal. These symptoms, including anxiety, mood swings, insomnia, and cognitive impairments, can last weeks or even months, challenging recovery efforts. PAWS results from the brain's slow process of adapting to the absence of substances, with neurotransmitter imbalances being a key factor. Effective management of PAWS involves education, therapy, and lifestyle changes, such as regular exercise and a nutritious diet. Recognizing PAWS as a legitimate and treatable condition is critical in providing the long-term support needed to sustain recovery and prevent relapse.
