Day 5

So I used to Roxies for the last two and a half years. Over the last month, I used the Roxys less, and to prevent withdrawal I would replace with mathadone 10mg. So basically I haven't had a roxy Since the beginning of April. Well I eventually ran out of methadones. So here I am on Day 5 thinking today would be a better day, but instead I feel just as horrible as yesterday. The ambien helpme sleep a total of 3 hours. But then I wake up at about 530 hot and covered in sweat. I do take periodic naps during the day. I need the rest and it helps the day go by. I also have Valium on hand but that also makes me sleepy, and if I don't sleep it off, I get groggy which makes things worse cuz I'm tired but amxiety is killing me. I'm starting to wonder if I'm detoxing from methadone now. I'm drained, I have no more energy to keep going. There are moments when I'm optimistic a d feel like I can get thru this but mostly I feel like my head is clouded. Any advice. I have no other choice but to keep going, I have no money for nothing and I'm too exhausted too move. I been taking emergency 3x a day. I have a multi vitamin and vitamin b12. Oh and 4 Imodium 2mg. Anything else I could do. I do take hot showers and short walks. My patience is running low as I was hoping to start feeling better by now.
