Well, I've been there and it wasn't nice. After leaving college, I smoked like a train for about 7 or 8 years. Had to quit in order to get the job I have now and pass the drug test. It sucked...ROYALLY. I had 'restless legs' the entire week and got 4 hours of sleep that TOTAL week. At firsst I'd come home and be so bored but then later, I'd dread going to bed becuase of the RLS. It's not painful, per se, but it is VERY annoying. Anyway, after a week, it finally went away and I got back to normal. Actually quit smoking for about a year while I got into a routine with the new job.

As far as life goes, it looks I try to tell these kids on here...you get out of it what you put in. You can have anything you desire and obtain any goal you set for yourself if YOU really want it. You control the herb, you don't let it control you...just like you drive a car, it doesn't drive you. Maybe you just need a little time to prioritize everything and develop a game plan while you dry out a little. As you start to implement your plan, you can slowly get back into herb smoking while making sure you regulate when and how much so that it doesn't affect you or obtaining your goals.

If you serious about taking a break right now, you gotta find some things to occupy your time. Excersise is always great. Going for short roadtrips is one of my personal faves. But try to find something to keep you engaged and focused so you're not jonesin.
