Withdrawl?
Question:I am on the track and cross country team at my high school and track season just ended. My coach said to take 2 weeks off before running again and even then, I shouldn't put in any major mileage. Now, he also said that I'd go through endorphin withdrawls, which are happening, but he said to try to control them because I need the recovery because I put in lots of miles and need to rest.
How do I control the endorphin withdrawls?

I never believe in complete rest. I think active rest is better. You can do things, even walk or job a little. Major mileage is what you are trying to avoid. I understand you are getting antsy and anxious without your daily running. If you don't have any injury and are just looking to take off then I don't think a little exercise hurts. You just don't want to train for 2 weeks. Try riding a bicycle it will not put a load factor on your legs and body and you can still get some cardiovascular work.What is the fastest mile time for a student in high school; male & female?

Try doing some exercises that don't involve your legs. There is a machine at some gyms that is like a bike, but for your arms, or you can just do go ol' fashioned sit ups and push ups, or lift weights.Or you can watch scary movies! They will get your adrenaline going!
The easiest way is to keep distracted as often as possible, and once you start to feel withdrawals quickly find something else to do that you enjoy.
I have found that caffeine helps. try some coffee or a cola. Or chocolate, which actually has compounds similar to endorphins.
other than that, keep busy and distracted with other things.

The easiest way is to create altermate goals. While lot's of running may be out. Spend 30 minutes in the morning and evening doing stretching and core strengthening exercises. Instead of running, try cycling, swiminng an elliptical machine or even walking or hiking.I also don't believe in complete rest unless this is injury related and cross training is not possible. The most important thing is to reduce your total training load and give your running muscles some rest after a hard training season.
