You are NOT crazy.  This is part of the mind tricks that come with WDs.  Your brain is working hard to talk you into taking something to attach to those receptors.  It's telling you that you are sad, lonely, depressed, hurting, arguing and can't get peace!  Anything to get the drugs back in.  Your brain is "diseased" for right now.  This won't last forever.  Tomorrow will be better.  

Take some Mag/cal, hylands and nyquil and a hot bath!  

Cyber-hugs!!!

I had a hard time finding the Hylnds when I looked for it too..I ended up going to a vitamin store and looked for it there..No luck!  However this is where I was told about the Cal/mag suppliment and that the meds depleat your body of certain minerals.  I bought the bottle of mineral cal/mag then hopped over to Walgreens to find the Hylands there(I could not find it myself after looking for a while so I had to ask the associate.  I was looking at it the whole time)..took them both and they really really do help!  Also I was told that you absorb the most magnesium through your skin as possible so it was also recommended to soak in a epsome salt bath.  You have 5 days behind you you are getting there.  Just need to find a few supplys to ease your body's healing.

Yes, GNC has it.  If they don't have the restful legs then get the leg cramps.  Both work.  The Cal/Mag is a MUST!  I still take it.  NO joke.  And yes you can take it during the day!  Take as much as you need.  It won't do anything weird to you.  I buy the cal/mag at wal mart.  It has zinc in it too.  I take 3 at a time.  You will be AMAZED!
