Hi, go through lots of posts, many many posts are about detox. Look up the Thomas recipe to get what you'll need. Basically, it's awful, but necessary. Your energy and sleep will be the last things to come back. You will be in peak withdrawl on day 5 so I wouldn't expect much but many folks go to work during detox. It's hard. Just know, you will be feeling like you have the flu including sneezing, yawning, possibly shaking, bathroom issues, major fatigue and insomnia. Just expect it. It will eventually pass, just a necessary evil. Good luck and keep posting for support.
