In my personal experience in detoxing from methadone, at 32 days I was feeling much better, my energy level did start to improve slowly around this time, at around 6 weeks was when I noticed a huge change in my overall health, I am now at a little over two months methadone free & mostly all the symtoms of methadone withdrawals are gone, but everyones recovery differs, you mention you sleep alot, I didnt sleep for almost a month after getting off methdone. Also Im a very active person, I remember not wanting to get out & do anything & the idea of going back to work was to much, but eventually I did & it really helped. Just hang in their & soon you should be seeing improvement. Penelope
