Hi lindsay
I had to really force myself out of the house to walk.. took my dogs it helps.. exercise really helps to get your endorphins flowing again.. It took about 6 weeks or so for me to start to feel kinds normal ? :) It will get better stay as active as you can.. maybe find a hobby or find a meeting like na or aa It does come back we just have to work it..  I wish you well.. lesa

it varies for everyone lindsay, It took about 8 weeks for me to detox when I last quit, I relapsed and am once again in recovery, I don't know if this time will be better or worse, but it does get better, I promise, vitamins always help. One a days help restore your bodies natural rythym.  You physically stop craving a lot faster than you psychologically do. Just keep pushing on.
