Toss, exactly what I did, fond new activities and the withdrawal symptoms both physiological and Psychological I know will pass if I do my part in diet, and exercise. I too see my withdrawals as the light at the end of the tunnel, and find myself accelerating towards it. Sometimes too fast and get frustrated, but then laugh at myself for being so impatient! I didn't get this way in a few weeks, but 90% of the bad of drinki8ng went away in a few weeks, the other 10% are nothing more than speed bumps, I just slow down and get past them without breaking my progress or suspension.
Keep it up bud!
