It's been 4 days now and you should be through the worst of it. You will still have problems, however the worst is behind you. Try to take a walk and get the blood flowing. Try to eat some fruits and veggies. For sleep, try drinking chamolille tea or sleepy time tea.
I promise you, it will get better very soon. Hang in there. Ive been off the opiates for a year now and life is pretty darn awesome.
Stay clean and keep pushing forward,

Hi mydevine
A Dr is always a good first step in cases like these, especially as you sound under some stress.
Think about giving NA another go too - maybe you can ring them and get someone to pick you up - that way you won't be alone?

A short term fling with suboxone (starting on a large dose and tapering myself gradually by the day rather than over a long time span to avoid serious sub w/d), lots of ibuprofen, gatorade, and countless hours spent on these SR forums and in the chat room here worked wonders for me during my heroin detox, and I was bangin' a bundle a day most days.
I ended up not being able to sleep the first few days, even with the sub's, went to the ER & was COMPLETELY HONEST with them. They gave me .25mg xanax to take for sleep for 5 days. Since I have no attraction at all to benzos, this combination worked well for me, even though it's not generally a great idea for someone trying to kick drugs to be taking another addictive medication.
Hang in there. It really does get better. A lot better.
