Regarding how long it took me to resume - I didn't drive for about 4.5 months. I started driving only 1-2 miles, and with a buddy at first. I stayed off of the highway for the first few weeks. It's been about a month and a half since I began driving again and I am able to drive for an hour on the interstate. I know it is difficult to not be able to do what you need and want to do, but please be patient. I found that it was so easy to relapse. Also, this is the time to ask your friends and neighbors for help. I often had friends do shopping for me and we even had a Meal Train set-up. Happy to answer more questions. Best MV
