So I relapsed after a year and 2 months of being clean went for a five month spree ending at about 3/4 gram habbit i.v. used a suboxone 8 mg day 1 of kick and 4 mg day 2 thats it. Today is day 7 and combined with yesterday I am running on 3 hours sleep. I am also trying to taper my xanax script at the same time. Anyway kind of hate my life right now, but I know I'm doing the right thing. Any sleep advice would be greatly appreciated.
 
You need to just tough it out. I would suggest buying some sleepy time tea, it works quite well. Doing some excercise, taking a good multi-vitamin. Excercise is going to help the most.

Your body will eventually go back to normal, but tapering from xanax isn't going to help either. I would definently slow down on that, that's probably effecting your sleep.
 
My sleep cure during WD is benzo's so that is out of the question. Sounds like you have some self control if you are tapering the xanax. I would take care of one at a time. Since heroin WD is the shortest I would let that pass then deal with the benzos. If your tolerance to benzos isn't insane and you can get take a reasonable dose for sleep I would use it for sleep the next few days and then start over the benzo taper.
 
yeah I keep getting clean over my withdrawals and relapsing for a couple days getting shitty hypertension and bad sleep for a few days after it sucks. ... sadly yes self control is something I'm working on but, I still have xanax didn't end up quitting. I'm clean and green today got good sleep last night I just have to get back into my old mindset, slowly its coming back
 
good luck. i have to be locked down. usually the 1st few days i'm so sick i can't go get stuff..but around day 3 or 4, it's the mind that usually brings me down. drink water, get pedialite (so you don't get dehydrated)...take a bunch of benzo's and sleep.
 
Since you aren't really asking questions or generating any discussion I'm going to close this but ask you to please keep us updated in the progress thread! Its the last link in my signature.
