methadone use

i was on methadone for 7 and a half months. my milligram was 100. i started detoxing and at 20mg's i stopped going. it is now 10 day's off. for the past 6 months i had little energy now my energy level is extremely low. i can barely make it from one room to another. iv'e been to my dr. for a complete physical everything is ok, except my protein level is low. is there anything that will boost my energy. i am going crazy just sitting or laying around. i use to be active until i used methadone. the methadone helped my habit i had but i also feel it drained me of my energy. please help if you know anything. i'm eating all the protein i can really don't have much of an appitiate anymore. thanks.

i was on 20  -30 mgs for 4 years and am at 37 days. Get some Boost and some B12. Get a multi vitamin like centrum or one a day. drink lots of water and keep yourself busy. it helps. You have to make yourself get up and do things, believe me I am still dealing with this issue myself. I am just too stubborn. lol. anyways check out my journals, add me as a friend and you can talk to me anytime. Keep posting...that helps too. these people on here are wonderful  and are full of advice. good advice too. Keep your head up and remember this too shall pass.
