It will come with soon and seen as the ambien and benzos are not working I would get rid of them .They are both addicting and now is not the time to take other addictive.Do drugs . DO NOT TAKE AN OPIATE thats just going to prolong it . Try to get exercise are you taking any supplements >

Please dont add anymore meds to this.  I know this is the worst thing but your sleep will come back.....take a warm bath or shower and try to relax.  Easier said than done i know.....sara

Have you tried some benadryl? This is the only thing that worked for me, even after trying prescriptions and natural remedies such as valerian root and melatonin.

Hi jamielynn777.. as everyone has said your sleep will return.. I have never forgotten how long it took me to sleep 8 days and I finally passed out. it will come..coming off the opiates and adding these other meds is just causing you more problems..  they cause your already fragile emotions to become almost unbearable and can add to anger.. walking I did a lot of at night Hot showers.. you should start to get 15 min here and there.. Just stick with it it is almost over ok.. walk and walk some more it will help to settle your thoughts and help with the restless legs/anxiety. sleep will come any time now.. Congrats on 5 days that is something to be proud of.. lesa

Hey Jamie chuck the ambien and benzos! Like Avisg said if they are not helping anyhow just get rid of them.  I know it s*cks real bad right now but, try to opt for more natural choices to help sleep.  Try to tire yourself out during the day with excersice if you can push yourself to do that.  Also Nyquil has always helped me sleep if all else fails.  I would try reading a book, excersice, a hot bath and stuff like that to make you sleepy!  Pleaseeeeee do not touch the opiates!! I have been where you are so many times and caved and took the pill!  Well guess what the one night of sleep was not even slightly worth all the hell to come after!!  Everytime you take a pill the terrible detox starts all over again...your already at day five you are doing AWESOME!!!!! You are sooooooooooo close to things getting better, just take a deep breathe and know that it will all be ok soon! :) Always here with support
