Sleep, I need sleep !!!

[nooneknows214]

Good morning/evening all.  I'm once again suffering from not being able to sleep that well.  Looking for any answers :-)..  I was taking approx 6 Vico 5.0 and/or 7.5 per day for approx a year and a half to two.  Today, is my 5th day without and after this past week, I'll never go back, period.  However, I would like to ask someone who was around my habit.  When does the sleep begin to come back.  Just be honest, as always please.  As I said, I ain't going back.  I just really want to know.

Thank you so much.  In being totally honest, one night last week I smoked a little green.  No sleep, took a dose of Nyquil, still hard to sleep.  However, day by day it's getting a little better, I think.  Can't tell too damn tired.

I found that Nyquil liquid without the decongestant helped me through the first few nights.It can be habit forming in itself so use only for a short time.Once I got at least 6 hours sleep a night,everything was so much easier.
I needed less than a full bottle and that was over 6 months ago.
Good for you stopping the opiates and you will soon be sleeping well.

I mean without them, coming of them. I have been reading about PAWS post accute withdrawal on Opiates scares me it can take a year to feel better

I know sleep deprivation is a killer with Opiates dammit

I took Trazadone for sleep during detox and was able to get 3-4 hours at a time. It doesn't sound like much, but it was better than nothing.

Falling asleep easy again took until about day 10 for me, but I have sleep problems.. I still take the Trazadone for sleep today.. probably always will ..

Not sleeping was the toughest part of detox for me, sadly, it was the last symptom to ease.. It will however get easier ..

Thank you so much...  At this point I really don't want to take anything, but just want some time to look forward to sleeping.  I think I may actually try now...

I had a fairly decent sleep on the 7th night, but it was a few weeks before I was really able to get a good night.  I have always struggled with sleep issues though so I went to the doctor and was put on trazadone, worked well.
