Do you have an electric blanket?  That's what I do.  Wrap up in my electric blanket.  Even in the living room.

Congrats on you 9 days clean that is really something after 10 years. I am so proud of you and you are too far to look back now. Just wanted to say that I am also freezing and I find it to be the worst part of withdrawals for me. I hate the cold as is but being cold even under blankets with the heat on just downright *****. Warm showers for me are about all that helps. You may also try theraflu warming which will calm down your skin receptors a bit. A benzo also helps with that. Well good luck to you my friend you are in my prayers. -John

I'm pretty much the same as you properly clean for the first time in about 10 years or so. All I can really say is plenty of hot drinks, warm clothes and turn the heat up, also really hot bath so hot you can just handle it, boy they feel good and ease aching muscles and back pain.

Good luck.
