Default Pain Med Detox, Havent Slept in 8 Days

I really mean it, I have not slept at all in 8 days. I was in detox for 10 days and I suffered in there. I thought it would be easy when I got out, but I fcant sleep at all. I got back from detox 6 days ago, the last 2 days there i didnt sleep.

I am in utter exhaustion, its unbearable. At night I have panic attacks and break down in tears because I am so tired but I know I cant sleep. Part of my problem is my restless legs that get muscle spasms. that only ha ppens at night. Other than that its just insomnai.

My doctor prescribed me seroquil, and that doesnt even put me to sleep! I even doubled my dosage out of desperation, and I felt like I was gonna doze off but my legs hurt so bad I stayed awake.

I think I am gonna give up, I cant take this anymore. I need sleep. This could cost me my job if I have to take anoher day off. WHAT IS THE POINT OF DETOX IF YOU FEEL SO CRAPPY WHEN YOU COME OUT??? argh it infuriates me. No wonder 98% of all opiate addicts relapse after detox!!! Help me please!!
