I have a drug test at work, please can someone help me

[cpcsworker]

Hi people,

I'm a chronic smoker, I have smoked everyday since 2008 which is 16 years. I have a swab test in 2 days time which I'm pretty certain I'll be clear for as I haven't smoked in 3 days either so there will be 5 full days for my saliva to clean itself hopefully.

My issue is I get up for work at 6AM but no matter what I cannot fall asleep. I avoid bright lights, TV, my phone before bed ect but for the past 3 nights I've just been staring at my ceiling in the dark, the last time I looked at my clock was 3:48 and I was up for work 2 hours and 10 minutes later for work.

I thought oh fuck it I'll just take 150-300mg codeine before bed it will flatten me like I'm on a lilo in a hot tub (I've had experience with larger than normal codeine doses before now) but then I realised I'll fail on opiates then.

I then thought I'll take diazepam but they test for that aswell! What legiate absolute knockout sleeping aid can I take that won't be getting tested for? As far as I'm aware the test will be same as roadside?

Thank you

Have you tried over the counter sleeping aids? Doxylamine and diphenhyrdamine have helped me get to sleep before. However I have heard these can sometimes cause false positives.

In the past when I've had drug tests I've been asked what medications I've taken but not sure how they'd deal with a false positive.

You could also try drinking a decent amount of booze . That will impact sleep quality though.

I haven't tried any sleeping aids as of yet as I'm worried they will show as a false positive. I'm trying to find one that won't cause a false positive. I just don't want to lose my job but I also need to sleep lol.

I've never been a drinker to be honest but I had a few drinks last night I just felt sick, got heart burn and felt like crap but not tired

You could also try natural sleeping aids like Valerian root or Melatonin. I haven't tried them and I've heard mixed things about their effectiveness as a sleep aid. Would probably be worth a go though.

Locking. If the test does opioids, you’re hosed. (Codeine falls into that category.)
