Please someone give me info on zanaflex---the side effects and all---I took it a couple nites for sleep but it did not let me sleep much at all----any advice...

If it's not helping you, I would stop taking it and see if it's okay for you to go the "natural" route w/melatonin or valerian root.  Melatonin worked really well for me for the sleeplessness associated with withdrawal.  Just be sure you take that about 1/2 hour before bedtime and take only in a darkened room - even the light from a TV or computer screen can mess with the effectiveness of this supplement.

Sleep is one of the last things to return to normal after you quit.  I know how frustrating it is so just try to rest as much as possible.  Even if you're not sleeping, the downtime is still beneficial to your body.

do you have a high tolerance to muscle relaxers ? It may take some time ( in terms of hours )  to kick in but people usually say that it works well...
