Sorry hun. I hope it gets better soon. Have you tried to take anything OTC like Benedryl, Melatonin, or Valarien Root???  When I detoxed I took a sleep blend from GNC, Melatonin, and L-theanine with some liquid Calcium/Magnesium. That cocktain of natural stuff worked for me. I slept great.
If you are not taking any anti-depressants, 5HTP can also help with sleep and depression.

Good Luck.
