You should be starting to get "back to normal" soon, but I did take some benadryl a couple nights and it helped. I tried to stay away from drugs to get me off drugs, but the restlessness is very taxing.
Trazodone is helping me a little, I'm breaking 100mg tablets in half so I won't keep depending on artificial relaxation, although I'm not QUITE completely off the vics yet
Your story seems so similiar to mine. I decided to quit once my source ran out but I knew that I would have more available on Day 7 of my quit. I made it through all of the sleeplessness, all of the rls, the sweating, the chills, the crying..and then I %&#@ing caved! I hate myself so much for doing it. Please don't do what I did. Now I have to go through it all over again. All because I wasn't prepared to handle the mental part once the physical stuff starting to taper off. I just assumed that once the physical wd's were over that I would be "clean". Its really all mental though. Please, please, please, be tougher than me!
Would a muscle relaxent work, I have Cyclobenzaprine 10MG?
I would try Benadryl first, you can get the generic faily cheap
The part that sucks is you can't trust yourself, I know clearly what needs to be done and I'm hopefully 1/2 way there. Yet I'm going to my PO box in 1 hour to see if the arrived, I prey the arrived!! But I'm not sure I'll take them but I gotta go check.
Man I'm screwed up in the head.
your story is also similar to mine. I had a hell of a time falling asleep. most the time i used tylonal pm, once in a while i would resort to nyquil. gets ya to sleep fast. muscle relaxer will help with the rls, but that is just another addiction. i would stick to over the counter meds. your not alone. stay strong and keep posting.
That was the horrid thing about using...keeping a source..the docs wont give it to you forever...your friends cant give it to you or sell it to you forever either......it gets old having to worry like this over having pills.....you gotta be ready to let it go..you are so close to being finished with the WDS....I would not start back after looking back at my addiction (and still looking at it) you are probably putting off the inevitable...which is quitting once and for all
