Opioid/Former Opioid Users Weigh In: Did You Get Any Opioid-Like Withdrawal From Quitting SEMAX?

UPDATE: It would seem that it was an unhappy coincidence. I'm happy to chalk it up to that. Thanks to everyone that weighed in on the issue. I look forward to trying the drug in new combinations once school has again started.
I got off of SEMAX, and got mildly ill. My buddy went off SEMAX--much faster than I did; cold turkey, basically--and now he, too, is ill, only moreso.
I'm wondering if the enkephalin reuptake inhibition of SEMAX is causing more tolerance than was originally projected, and therefore also causing mild opioid withdrawal symptoms when administration is abruptly ended.
But, I have never engaged in opioids enough to understand what opioid withdrawal feels like. To those who have, and have also gone off of SEMAX, if you could please put in your two cents, it would be much appreciated.
And I don't really know: I haven't been seeing very many people complaining about SEMAX withdrawal. I'm not trying to make any chemicals look bad, but I'm being honest about my results from taking it, and was wondering if I could get to the bottom of how I felt after I stopped.

Someone wrote me last week saying that Semax completely eliminated the analgesia of Tramadol. So there might be more to the opioid story that we have not learned yet. I personally have not noticed withdrawals from Semax, though, and I have probably taken more than anyone.
