Methadone relapse..

I was doing pretty well on day 3 withdrawing after 2 1/2 months of 20-30mg, battling the mental aspects were the worst though. After severe depression and one pretty bad crying spell, I ****** up and smoked some weed. This made my anxiety levels go through the roof, my legs which were previously a bit restless for day 2- 3 but still manageable started to feel 5 times worse, I started to feel like I couldn't breathe. So I got my emergency pill 10mg, all I have left and took half, an hour later took the other. Apparently I'm not gonna be able to use weed for withdrawing, it really messes with my anxiety sometimes and in this case sent me over the edge. I was into probably the worst of physical symptoms which weren't all that bad really, no diarrhea or vomiting just insomnia and restless legs, with a slight flu. My depression quickly turned to anxiety after i smoked that weed, and caused me to relapse... So, now I'm gonna do what I can do to get by for now and try again after I get some cash and something for sleep, I might have access to some soma. Next time I quit I won't be smoking any weed... that's for sure.

I'm on day 8 from oxy's, Ive also done this before in 2003 from oxy's and meth. Did a 3 week stint of withdrawals with nothing to help me. Finally after 3 weeks I was done! Now, its been 8 days, feeling much better, still a bit anxiety in the mornings.but I found I cannot take anything to help me along. Not even OTC sleeping aids, made my legs restless, only slept for 2 hours and had great panic attacks and anxiety. Seems the less I used for helping me, the faster I got thru this. One thing that I found relaxed me at night to get  2 hour sleep intervals was crushing up a 750mg clacium pill ( first cutting it in half,), put half in a small bit aof milk and shoot it down, add a 3mg melotonin on top of it, and sleep like a baby for 2 hours. Wake up stay up for 2 hrs, and do it again. 4 hours sleep is better than none.

hi 1 10mg pill wont set you back to far your serum level has already droped off so you  will probably feel the withdrawal tomorrow with methadone you got to be in it for the long haul its going to be a couple of month b/4 this stuff is threw with you methadone has its own set of rules and there cruel your doing good symptom wise but after a month the insomnia will drive you nuts the next stage for you will be the energy crach....you must force yourself to exorsize start out with a walk around the block and go from there this might not seme like much but it will take everything you have to do it what ever you do dont just sit in front of the tv to get well you have to be pro active in getting well get up to walmart and pick up some whey protein shake mix it comes in a 2lb can for 15 bucks tha chocolate flavor is good and it has all the amino acids as well asextra vitamins and raw protein all of witch the brain needs to heal mix it with milk and drink 2 a day till you come around then 1 a day for the rest of the year

problem is i have no money or way to get any, and nobody knows im going thru this. the physical stuff is uncomfortable but it's the mental  part that kills me. I already have major depression and an anxiety disorder. I have no medical insurance so i cant see a doc, im in a pretty rough spot... so it makes the mental part 2x worse, plus my dad died recently and there's way too much stress where i live, we have no money and can barely get by . i dunno if i'll make it thru this without having a mental breakdown. and i'm completely out now with no way to get any more pills
