Has anyone ever experienced a bad withdrawal from painkillers? (ie psychotic episode)?

I think someone close to me may be having a breakdown and has been talking to me in a delusional, rambling way. She has been on strong pain killers for a number of weeks and has finally had her wisdom tooth out. I think the come down may have something to do with her mental state. She's quite extreme generally but this is not normal for her and I am scared about what is going on.

Does anyone have experience of this?

Have you tried asking if she'll talk to a HCP?

My brother is driving to see her and try and look after her tonight. She doesn't seem rational enough to take advice but he will do his best to get her medical attention of some kind.
