DONT GIVE UP! Ive been where you are....i sat in my car for a whole night until about 6 am rocking back and forth becasue my body was screaming....I had gotten one hrs sleep in 2 days....i had to remind myself second to second I CAN DO THIS.... IM DOING IT....ITS WORTH IT. I don't want to end up like how I used to be. Instead of day to day I took it second to second. I KNOW IT'S HARD BUT YOU CAN DO IT....definately try to go get sum valeria root. I am told when people come off methadone they don't sleep for weeks and weeks....I slept the first night i got the valeria root and melatonin. Keep me posted on how your doing ok? Message me anytime!

Try and relax hun. It is going to be hard for the next few days---physically. Okay? But you already decided that you ARE going to do this so hang in there. I promise, it will be over soon.

i was doing ok  a few hours or so ago and im so tired im trying to keep my mind clear and listen to what others have given there advice and i was ok  it wasnt that bad then i just start thinking about how ive gone a whole day without pill and how i can do this to me thinking of the last time and im already shakey then found out it wasnt when i thought it was two days ago and i start doubting i can do this took my xanx out of the house so nervous that i sit another night and its a nightmare to sit night after night watching the wall or just thoughts racing thru your head but i dont want to stop trying i just dont know how to do it without pumpin myself up with something i think im just so tired its making everything harder
