I'm going into night 5 right now from norco 10/325. I'm still restless as hell, haven't slept but 15 hours since Monday night. But let me give ya something good to think about.. Just get through 3 days and you'll feel so much better. It isn't easy but just hang in there. Take some magnesium and potassium tablets. They will ease your restlessness a little bit. Take some hot baths or a hot tub is even better. I swear I'll never go through this again but I think it would be nice to get a sweet hotel room for the first couple nights with a tub and detox there. Just rambling....try to drink some good organic night time teas with chamomile and valerian root, kava kava. If u have a friend that can go to a health food store for ya there is tons of stuff there for sleep and other symptoms. My philosophy was to try and go as natural as possible but I guess everyone is different from what I've been reading. You didn't specify what u have been taking so all I can do is tell ya what I did and am, unfortunately for 5 days now for norco wds. Hang in there and good luck. I'm gonna put on the headphones in a few and try and get some rest to some good tunes. That might help as well. It was to hard to watch tv the first night but if ya do watch funny ****..I'll check the post tomorrow or later if I can't sleep. It can be done so just be tough and get pissed off at the pills. Go on YouTube and type in opiate withdrawals and you can watch some peoples stories. Some are very encouraging. Check ya later....
