Hi John, wow you have done an awesome job getting off the methadone, sleep issues do become a problem in recovery, I starting getting a lack of sleep at about 20mgs of methadone and now after 4 weeks off my sleep is not the greatest. There are many nights I toss and turn and only fall asleep for a couple hours in the wee hours of the morning. Sleep will eventually get better, going by what others in recovery have to say, so you will probably just have to wait it out, I don't think it will be real bad for you though. Sorry to hear you are having problems with the flooding, not a nice situation at all! Keep posting for support and let us know how it goes, I wish you all the best and thanks for the PM!
