I'm on day 37 of my withdrawal from opiate abuse after 10 years [norco, tramadol]. I did it cold turkey. Now I have severe insomnia. How many people still have insomnia after 37 days? I only sleep 3-4 hours a night. I'm going crazy over sleep deprivation. Seeing a Sleep doctor in a week. A doctor gave me trazodone. Tried it and it is not good. Stopped it after a few days. That's replacing one addiction for another. How do you actually cure the insomnia phase?

Are you attending NA meetings ??
