you shouldn't feel worse than you do now on day 4 and 4 weeks of methadone won't take that long to get over. The xanax is good but only for the time you detox. Also try some imodium or bentyl for stomach cramps. all the best

hi and welcome to the forum....well your in quit a jam no money and no methadone
well on the bright side you only have a few more days of feeling like you want to die and all will start to get better .....your detoxing weather you like it or not so try and make the best of it...right now you feel awful but in a few days the physical part of your withdrawal will be over...then all you got is the mental part witch can also be a bit challenging
I would highly recommend you check out an N/A meeting it will help you cope with what your going threw...right now you just have to be ok without being ok for a wile...it is ruff coming off methadone any way you do it.so my sympathy goes out to you I did it 97 days ago but I did a slow taper and that was ruff so I can only imagine what your going thew...if you believe in God nows a great time to start to pray...he's all you got at 3am and praying helped me get thew my withdrawals ...you can google N/Ameetings in your area to find one..other then that hot baths will help out and if you can get ahold of any benzos like zanex or valum they would be helpful short term as for sleeping ...well lets just say your body will get some when it needs it and wile you detoxing your probably not going to get much if any...I wish I could do more for you but your in a jam financially so theres not much else you can do...good luck and god bless.....Gnarly
you sound like you should go up a little on your dose or stop everything completly. If you take a little more methadone (but not on a high zombie dose), you might function better for school. The permanant solution would be to get off everything because methadone or sub can help for a while but they are just replacement drugs to keep you in a holding pattern. This may be allright for a while but for most people, to be off every thing is best as it is for me but you have to be ready and tired of it all. all the best
