im freezing my butt off. i cant seem to get warm even with the heating blanket. anyone experience this. i know im only day 2 but its almost over thank god. i cant wait for tomm. maybe i should be careful though what i wish for as ive read 3 is worse than 2?

I had a hard time staying warm also. If I remember correctly it was day 5 or 6 when it began, people in the neighborhood were wearing shorts, I was wearing a down coat!

Hang in there and keep posting!

It is different for everyone, you should be good to go in a few days.
Good Luck!!

If you can tolerate hot chocolate, tea, coffee, any hot (warm) liquid. I kept my heating pad going alot during detox.  We know it is rough, this will get better in time, and I hope it is soon for you. :)  These opiates die tough and you have to be tougher.  Hope tomorrow is better for you!!!

everyone is different..for me day 1 was the worst...just hang in there..dont think ahead..staying clean today if the focus..then tomorrow is another day...meetings/aftercare will help u make it thru this..even if u dont feel well try to attend a meeting and get some exercise to release endorphins...i would wrap myself in blankets because often it is a hot cold thing at night..take blankets off and on as needed..many sleep better with the house very cold as it slows ur metabolism down...then bundle up..and hang tight..u r very close..a positive attitude will help u thru this..a negative attitude/expecting the worst..can actually make u actually feel the worst..stay busy..get ur rest..read the halth pages and learn..lots of great info there...nite

it makes your body's thermostat go all hooey. i was like worried878, kept house cool at night. it's just a miserable time. i have been clean for over a month but last night had happy feet. great job on day 2. i know it's hard. keep posting.  sway

MILESTONE..sweeter than sugar and more valuable than gold. i slept. naturally for about 4 hours. the only other thing i take now is tylenol-pm. i woke up-im not shaky and so far dont feel weird. today is day 3. this is one of the hardest things ive had to do. but i feel i can do it and so far today see the light at the end of the tunnel. but im going to tread cautiously.
