Every time I would get ready for the withdrawls, I would stock up on Gatorade, Vitamin B and Motrin PM. I would make sure try to make sure someone was around just in case and I would just stay busy.... walking, cleaning, reading, calling someone or just taking a long hot bath. It was always so scary, the high heart rate, the shakes were always really bad and seemed to never stop and of course the horrible anxiety. It would always take at least two weeks before I really started to feel better. Now at 7 1/2 months I actually feel almost normal after four horrible years~ Best of luck to you!!
