Hey JMK,
 
I noticed the time-warp thing with the craves, too.
 
Not only that, but I kept getting random time warps that had nothing to do with craves. It would be like a 30 second interaction with someone would seem like it went all slow motion for 5-10 minutes or something. It was a very surreal feeling, and I kept wondering if others thought I was acting weird. 
 
Those times did occur less and less over the course of the first few weeks. I haven't had one for several weeks now. I almost forgot about it, until I saw this post.
 
...So, yes, it's normal, and yes, it will go away. (Bummer, since the ones without the craves were actually kind of fun.  )

Triggers don't ever give in they pass, they say triggers can last up 3-10 minutes, yeah right come in inside of my body felt like some would last for an hour! Just have to be strong in the mind and never be weak, they will pass if I can fight a trigger anyone can trust me on this! Cheers jmk
