oxy wd's after a month?

I was taking oxycontin 40 mg pills 6 a day for two years I went to an inpatient detox they did an 8 day taper using methadone today is 36 days since last oxycontin and 29 days since last methadone I felt ok while taking methadone 2 days after taper starting feeling withdrawls still feel very anxious and am freezing cold and can not sleep but am slowly getting better I was reading posts from people saying 4 days 5 days for oxy withdrawls I was just wondering if it is normal to feel wd's after a month? because I do. is there anyone else who has had wd's for this long?  it has been very hard but I am starting to feel better and I will never put myself through this again so if you are going through this hang in there and things will get better it just takes time and it is not easy

God i hope i still don't have wd's after a month.  4-5 days is hard enough.  i was taking norco.  i don't know about oxycontin and methadone but i know about addiction.  I will pray for you and i hope your symptoms get better soon.
