200 hours

Feeling good.  Cravings creep in and they are pretty poweful for about 5 minutes and i distract myself and they go away.  Went out today to open a new bank account and noticed unusual stress.  Still cant cope with common situations quite right yet.  How long before you are 100% comfy in normal everyday activities?

Exercising will help you with endorphin production , what makes life a bit easier to handle. Everyone is different but it sounds like you are busy and that helps. When the cravings come, remember they will pass and they will become less often and shorter. If you are sitting when they come , go for a walk around the block, get busy for those few minutes and it should go away.
Congratulations on your success.
