so sick of me

Hi all my forum friends!! You are all gonna get sick of me asking the same dumb a ss questions! But! On day 7, didn't sleep one wink last night..so tired, but going to the doc today..should I ask for colodine (sp) and something to help me sleep? Or just bag it and keep on keepin' on? Mind feels good, but so lethargic still!! I walk up my stairs and feel like I've just climbed K2! However, I feel like I could have allergies or a slight cold...but any help with the doc? And for those struggling..there is a light...I feel SO MUCH BETTER TODAY...just keep saying" one more day, closer to health and happiness and that lady going to RUSSIA!

Alrighty then..im gonna ask him for the clonodine, ill see what he says about how long to take it. I think maybe some of my problem (other than im just so uncomfortable when I go to bed), is I am taking over the counter sleep crap, which is loaded with antihistimine (sp), so maybe since im not sleeping that well, that junk lingers in my body. So tiger, when I get home, ill send you a private message of some of the russian phrases are in my book! You'll get a kick! Maybe I'll post for everyone, they are pretty funny! You are all the greatest!

Hey i feel the same as you, the no energy and tired feeling yet not being able to sleep is the worst. But after 3 days with about zero hrs of sleep I was finally so tired last night that i fell asleep and it felt very good. Woke up to my legs kicking and stomach hurting and depressed etc. but knowing i just got a few hrs of sleep helped SO much. I guess after all the pain of detox even the little things can make u feel good. Like 3 or 4 hrs of sleep lol. Glad youre feeling better and doing well, i think sleep will come but you can try things like melatonin, or advil pm maybe, also ive noticed if i can force myself to move around and excercise even if its barely anything lol i do sleep a little better at night because my legs dont hurt as much.

As far as the clonidine I had some and it helped tremondously but I dont have anymore today, was actually thinking about calling dr and asking for more but not sure how long your supposed to take it??? So Im not real sure but did want to let you know Im thinking about you, praying for you and continuing to say "one more day closer to health and that lady going to Russia" heehee that really has helped me so much over the last few days you have no idea :)
