You are very welcome Jeeno!
There is no sugarcoating the withdrawal experience. It is hard, but you are so lucky that you will have some vacation time to deal with it. Try to be really good to yourself during that time...sleep as much as you can/want, eat well and eat what you want (this is not the time to worry about diet!), drink lots and lots of water and remember that no matter how weird or crappy you feel, it IS going to get better and there are lots of people (like me!) who will be happy to respond to your messages while you go through this process. You are not alone, and you will get through it. It is a little different for eveyone, but this board itself is proof that we all survive it ;-)
Take care and be well!
Bliss
