I was kidding myself?

I started taking Vicodin 2+ years ago for a back problem, had surgury 2 months ago.....I am so pleased to say I am now 9 days clean..the first 8 were absolutly miserable but there seemd to be a light at the end of this tunnel.  I only took 6  7.5's per day, i would occasionaly sneak in an extra 1 or 2 but for the most part stayed at 6..  I thank all of you who take the time to reply as i can tell you it made a hugh difference to me.  

The one issue I struggled with and still am is sleep.  I have taken 3mg of Lunesta but it only allow me to sleep for a few hours.  any suggestions

Thank you all

Have you tried L-theanine and 5htp they are amino acids and have worked wonders for me,I am on day 35 of xanax w/d and sleep was non exsistant for me not even 2 hrs until I started the amino acids last night I slept 7.5 hours like a baby no nightmares no nothin just blessed sleep!

there are many drugs that r safe that can help with sleep...talk to ur doctor and see what he can do for u...lunesta never worked for me and i take ambien when i need something/both r drugs of abuse tho for some people so it depends onwhat u can handle without abusing...something that makes me sleepy has never been sumpin i would abuse as i like the "kick start" or energy part of pills...never took a fancy to benzos either....talk to ur doctor and good luck..congrats on ur clean time
