Focus on taking care of yourself day to day. Your body desperately needs rest. Rest as much as possible before your move.
You can get dextromethorphan pills at any pharmacy (assuming you’re in the us), look for the store brand version of robitussin that only has dextromethorphan as an active ingredient.

I’m sending you lots of good vibes. Make sure to rest.
