Someone in the addiction subforum suggested I may be experiencing PAWS (Post acute withdrawal syndrome).
Quote:
Opioids: Whether prescription opioids or illicit versions like heroin, these drugs can lead to post-acute withdrawal syndrome if they are not tapered off properly. People who experience the full intensity of acute withdrawal are more likely to develop PAWS, which includes cravings, exhaustion, and cognitive impairment that does not go away for a long time.
(From Post-Acute-Withdrawal Syndrome (PAWS): An In-Depth Guide )

Explains why I feel stupid, tired (but can't sleep of course) and irritable.
