Hi Linton,I had a similar period of use at one time and it took me about 20 days to get over it.That includes mental,energy,sleep,etc.The bad withdrawal symptoms were only a couple of days.You can do this pretty easily.just hang in there and don't mess up like I did and get feeling better and then start using for another 8 months.It will and does suk.I am on day 25 and am not even close to coming out of the woods as far as mental and energy are concerned.
