Depends. If it's the first time or close to the first time it might take a long time.

if it's happened a lot before and you desire to overcome it, the time may shorten from happening a lot, and also from your desire to overcome it.

if you have been building your inner strength the time may shorten.

if you have something else to take your mind off it, a hobby, a friend, a new girlfriend, the time may shorten.


hmmn. without anything else, and assuming it's the first time. maybe 4 months. If you are trying hard to overcome the experience, maybe 2 weeks total but only 5-7 of heavy cravings.
