In desperate need, day 3 off vicodin

I am on day 3 with no vicodin. I was taking about 9 per day for the last year. PLEASE someone tells me it gets easier. My brother took his own life a few years ago and one of his problems was pills. I have an AMAZING support system. My mom has taken time off work to be with me. My grandma and dad are also here with me. I need help and support so bad. I feel so blah and literally can't eat due to zero appetite. Thankfully I have zero cravings and the last thing I want is a vicodin. Please someone tell me it gets better and I'll find energy again?!

Yes, the weight loss is normal. Your body is releasing everything. I too lost a lot of weight that first week or so. Make sure you are replenishing the nutrients through food and drink. Protein shakes, yogurt, soup, toast, etc... Glad you are feeling better. The more active you can be, the more it helps with the lack of energy. Sounds strange, but it's true! Take care.
