Your brain is doing this to you. It's trying to heal from the drugs so you have physical symptoms right now. It will ease up but it takes the brain awhile to heal. The last thing you want to do is add more or different drugs into the mix.  It's hard to make yourself relax but it does happen.
In the meantime,keep drinking those fluids. It's very important. The only thing that will make you better is time. You need to find a way to accept that and continue each day.
We've been through this and we know. It's all about time and not about strength.

Sub withdrawals arent fun, but they are totally doable!

Im guessing that you are in Europe judging by your dose of sub at .4mg?

When I detoxed off of sub 9 months ago, wd's really kicked in by day 4.  The worst of the worst was over by day 10, and residual things gradually faded away over the next three weeks.  The crawling skin lasted about 2 weeks, the sleeplessness about 3 weeks, and the leg cramping was the last to go at 4 weeks.  

Its a long process, but what I found helped me was the whole "mind over matter" deal.  No matter what I did, I kept my spirits high knowing that I was choosing a better life for myself.  I would laugh when my legs would kick out of control... Id think about what a lunatic I looked like when I was vacuuming at 4am cause I couldnt sleep...  I embraced the withdrawals as sort of a rite of passage...  And just kept remembering how I was feeling, and telling myself "I NEVER have to go through this again, unless I choose to!"

Granted I came off a higer dose, I was at 3mgs when I quit... but wd's are wd's.

Follow the above advice, keep posting here, and hang in there!  All of it will indeed end!

It will end hun, I promise you that. I wish I had a magic wand to wave over you and make it go away but I don't. this is the price we pay.

Just think though, in a few days the physical withdrawal will be over and you can start your new life. You mentioned that you moved away from the baby's daddy? If that was a bad relationship then moving away was a good thing. Make sure that you don't go around any drug friends or places where you could be tempted. While the physical withdrawal is hard to go through, the mental part of this disease is bad as well. I don't know if you ever heard the saying but "Once an addict, always an addict". That means that you can choose to be an addict who is using, or when in recovery. In recovery, you will have to remain diligent for the rest of your life. Many people switch additions so you have to have your guard up at all times.

Hang in there, it is almost over.

We were talking about this last evening, remember?

We talked about you taking the hot baths, getting comfortable, pushing fluids, eating. If you can, light exercise. As I also mentioned, there is no way to escape the withdrawal so try and hang in there, it usually takes about 5 days or so and the flu like symptoms will be gone.

I know this stinks, I have been there several times, but it is doable and you will get through this!!

If you have a family member, friend or neighbor who can watch your daughter for a while to give you a break, that would really help. that way you can maybe get a little rest.
