2.5 weeks too much time on my hands

Hi leaves , I am doing frankly so much better than anticipated. Some symptoms this time have been serious headaches and changes in appetite. Much different than my previous experiences with withdrawal. My question is- what do people do after work??? I get off work, take care of my pup, make dinner and tidy up then I am exhausted. I find myself just watching TV which is what I did while smoking but it felt better then. I don’t need some grand plan every night. I even have things in mind that would be fun but I have zero motivation zero desire and I still have cravings. I can remember before I was addicted and was young in college SO booked and busy. It’s like I have all these choices I cannot choose and all I want to choose is a nice after work j or bong rip. I guess what I am looking for is some hope that this feeling will dissipate. I became this way in the thick of grief losing my dad. Now I have gotten into a space where I feel okay to enjoy myself again but I just don’t have the desire. That I will feel motivated and more like myself again? I guess I am tired of waiting for it to get better but I don’t know how to make it better .. :/
