Cant eat! Cant sleep
Cant eat! Cant sleep! what to do??? i lay up all night (uncomfortable) no matter what my position i just cant seem to relax ....My anxiety is at maximum levels and i am just curious how long these symptoms occur for (within some sort of range) ...I told myself this wasnt going to be easy and prepped myself or so i thought, for what was ahead of me... I know i am doing better for myself, but it so F...ing hard! It dosent make it any easier that almost all of my friend do drugs so no matter where i am i cant excape it... But the good this is right at the moment i dont seem to care about the absence of pills, but my body sure as hell does....Anyone know of any good remedy's to aid sleeping? That would be great....And any information on why i have absolutely no appetite ?

FIVE days clean, this is good, congrats :) Have you read the thomas recipe and the amino acid protocol ? you can find some advices there now. As for sleeping.... valerian root ( it helps with anxiety ) and melatonin ( to take in the dark ) ... you can also take a long hot bath with epsom salts before going to bed, a hot milk glass and a pair of bananas along the other stuff... all in all helps with sleep but keep on mind that problems with sleep are common and one of the symptoms lingering longer in time.... Good luck and a hug !"!
you are welcome and yes, listening to the advices is the most intelligent thing to do so nop, i would never think that you are a young punk kid who is not listening, don't worry, you should be very proud of what you are doing , i am :) i would suggest the whey protein shakes if you don't feel like eating... a pr0otein rich food is adviced after opiate wds to repair and heal , those shakes are also full of vitamins and aminos. The thomas recipe is good for wds but i would suggest you the amino acid protocol after the first days of wds, you don't need taking all the stuff ....take what you might need ( they are on the health pages , right side of the screen )... exercising is also great, you will boost your endorphines and of course, aftercare. We really need help addressing our addictive behaviour, jester.... this is a long race and we need help...NA meetings, therapy, addiction counseling... whatever it may work for you ... And keep posting your questions, you are not alone here :)
Havent read the thomas recipe yet but thats my next step now....I just want my appitite back i feel like i withering away and theres nothing i can do about it,because the thought of food just makes me sick !!...But thank you very much for the advice and please dont think that i am just some YOUNG punk kid whos not really listening to anything anyone is saying because everything i read on hear i take to heart and seriously follow through with information i am getting as best i can!!.....THANKS AGAIN (HUGS)
