Is this normal for someone going through a drug withdrawal?
Anyway, 8 month ago I started taking a drug to help my sleep. It was bad and interrupted. And on my first night I slept for 8 hours, I felt fresh, I'd go to gym. Now I built up a resistance and I stopped taking it. To make things worse I also have a flu right now. It was bad, now I just have a cough. Anyway, I stopped taking my drug and I think I became very very very irritable. Like I can snap over a minor thing. Also I can barely get 30 min of sleep per night. I don't want to go to a doctor because he'll just prescribe some other crap. My personal opinion that good diet and good workouts will heal everything.So should I just suck it up, not sleep for a couple days, turn my phone off and take a break from all the crap in my life. Take a yoga class or something.

When you have drug withdrawals, could taking another drug similar to the one ur going off of help w/it all?
If you're taking let's say either xanax, valium, ativan, klonopin, and you start to withdraw from them, considering ur dependent on them....and lets say you take ANOTHER different drug, but in the same class,...will that DO anything, or is your body strictly specifically addicted to that one particular chemical and the others really won't help at all?If you run out of valium and are addicted to it....will taking xanax or klonopin or ativan help at all?And vice versa?exactly how " strict" is drug withdrawal?I've heard some stories of how if you are a heroin addictict or an alcholic, how certain drugs can help with the withdrawals like valium, etc.

Can fever be a sign of drug withdrawal (crack, coke, etc)?
my friend seems to get a fever all the time. he goes out and parties every other day or every couple of days and it seems like the next day or so he always has a fever and is sick. im thinking he is doing crack, since he spends a lot of time with a known crack head. but what i am wondering is a fever a sign of coming down or withdrawing from speed? i know fevers can be dangerous and i just don't think it's normal for someone to have so many fevers. he will never admit to doing the drugs and i don't know how to help him.ps wasn't sure what category to put this under...sorry

Dealing with dieting and drug withdrawal at the same time?
I recently stopped taking an anti depressant zoloft because it made me feel awful. The withdrawal is difficult, but I decided to quit it cold turkey. At the same time, when I came home today, my mother yelled at me for being over weight and is making me monitor everything I do, which is very stressful for me, because of withdrawal and lack of mental stability.I really don't know what to do. It wouldn't be as big of a deal if I wasn't dealing with one or the other, but I am at the same time, and I don't know how to cope.I have been taking zoloft for about a year. I recently upped my dose, but I felt really awful, and entirely unstable with the new dosage, so I stopped all together.

Have I fallen into a long term drug withdrawal?
I will give you a little history on the past few months of my life.I go to raves, not as much as I use to. I went to a rave on April 20, 2008 and took ecstasy and adderall. I found out the ecstasy was loaded with meth, I felt brain dead for half of the night. I didn't have the energy to talk and I didn't want to talk, and I don't remember half of the night that I felt braindead. I've been doing this for the past 3 years, I have taken a lot of ecstasy, but I have not experienced the way I am feeling today, ever. After that experience I have not taken ecstasy or any drugs.Ever since than I have been feeling in a trance, I don't feel fully awake, I feel zoned out for most of the day, I feel zoned out just staring at the screen right now. When I look around at the walls, the objects around me, I don't know if I am truly alive or awake, I feel numb to what I am looking at. I have been taking ecstasy for the past 3 years, in the beginning I hardly used it, then I got heavily into it using it every weekend, and then slowly near the end up until April 20th, I have been slowly taking less quantities and taking it less in every month. In hopes that would help whatever kind of long term withdrawal I would have from it. So I'm not sure if it was from what I took on April 20th that made me how I've been feeling the past couple of months, or if because I'm taking it less and less my brain is detoxing or trying to get back to normal?Any advice or anyone who has experienced this, please help Thank you.
