First thing is to keep telling yourself your horrible feelings are only temporary and only caused by the drugs. You’re going to feel back to normal once you’ve had a decent sleep but maybe a bit flat for a day or two.
If you still have a real lot of energy make sure you get out of your room/house and go for a nice long walk at a regular pace while listening to some music or a podcast. Your brain has trouble being depressed and anxious when it’s distracted like that, and the exercise will give you some feel-good endorphins and soak up your jitteriness.
If possible try and stay awake until your next normal bedtime. Day sleeping disrupts your sleepy cycle and the next thing you know you’ll have nighttime insomnia to add to your woes. When you’ve burned off a bit of any excess energy if you need to, find something else distracting and comfortable. Sitting in a darkened room rugged up in a blanket or duvet on the sofa watching the kinds of things you like to watch on TV is often good. Alternatively sitting in the sun in a park watching nature go by listening to chill music can be good for some people who don’t dig TV. Mainly, be comfortable and don’t get stuck in your head obsessing about how shot you feel.
At your next normal bedtime go to bed even if you are don’t yet feel that sleepy. Lie in bed breathing slowly and deeply again while listening to chill music. Experience stimulant users can just kind of lie there meditatively for hours even if they can’t sleep. Just getting thought-free rest is really helpful for your recovery. If you have access to a low dose benzo (like 5 mg valium) then this would be the time to take it.
If you really try to relax in bed but can’t control control your anxiety or jitteriness then don’t just lie there suffering. Get up, have a hot shower, and get out of your bedroom for a while and go back to the TV or whatever for an hour or two before trying to go to bed again. Repeat this cycle as often as necessary.
Even if you are really feeling really post-coke or post-stim sketchy doing the above (or something like it suited to your own tastes and style) should make your comedown tolerable. But at the end of the day you are going to have to pay the piper something for a while and face the effect of your drug consumption choices - just for a little while.
Whatever you do don’t drink alcohol. It will end up making you feel way worse and just prolong the misery.
