Also, this has nothing to do "socially enforced feelings"... It's a "Eric has been vomitting every night/morning after drinking, no matter the amount, lately and feels like total shit for about 3 days after any drinking" thing.
A week? Whatever suits, really. I won't be getting quite as wrecked as I was last night for a while, as I don't feel like passing out whilst sitting on the john at a friend's house (again).
