Another question about breastmilk drying up :) ?

I'm so sad! My 9 month old son started weaning himself around 8 months old and as of 4 days ago just simply refuses to nurse. BOOHOO!!!! Oh well! My breasts aren't hurting or overflowing or leaking because it was a very gradual weaning. I was just wondering how long will it take for my milk to dry up and for my breasts to start changing (who knows what they'll look like now lol!). Has it ALREADY dried up? I'm so upset that he doesn't want to nurse anymore....

Update:

Any advice is welcome! Thank you!

Update 2:

Yikes!!! I just looked up nursing strikes! I think that's what's going on but I haven't pumped or anything for the last 4-5 days. I'm scared...
