Good golly, it’s been over 120 days since I posted in here.

At the local archery shop this evening, one of the workers there was an older gentlemen with his bottom teeth missing and unable to hold his chew in his lips. Yet there he was, and I was completely disgusted.

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen something and felt as repulsed as I did looking at that man

day 174, nearly three weeks since I posted in here. finding myself having my strongest bout of anxiety in quite some time. this too shall pass.
Hang in there man. I never dealt with anxiety until after I quit myself. Some was fairly bad but overall now, it's fairly mild and is pretty easy to manage. I've been taking daily CBD for a number a months now and it's helped a lot. Consult with your doctor; might be an option for you.
I agree with Mnx on anxiety as I never had issues either until my quit. I have been able to just keep pushing thru and dealing with it. Thank the Lord I have not needed meds but man if a person needs them then so be it. There are things out there lime Mnx said that might work for ya without a docs prescription but I would suggest trying and seeing if they help. Stay strong my friend you got this.
It is funny how the anxiety and cravings flow like a roller coaster. Periods of time are great and then at times its like being slapped in the face. For me, having a couple of good conversations with fellow quitters always gives me a nudge in the correct direction. Don’t ever forget how strong the network of support here is for you. Hang in there Mac, things will soon return to normal.

Hang in there man. You are right this time will pass. Keep on Keeping on and you will come out the other side all the better for it. Get whatever help you need and take care of yourself. I'll say a prayer for you tonight. You can do this. Stay strong.

Day 150. The last several days I have been feeling some craves and fog I haven't felt since the 80s. Luckily it's not nearly as bad as it was early in my quit and KTC has provided me with the tools to stay quit.
^^^^^ THIS DUDE IS A MF CHAMP!!! GET IN HERE  GUEST AND GET YOU SOME!!!!!! the pain of today is worth the freedom of tomorrow! nice work Mac and keep holding the line ODAAT
Periods like this come and go at all points in our quits. I was in a bit of a slump myself this week. It's why I keep logging in day after day and posting my promise early each morning.

Lots of support on here; reaching out to a new quitter when you are in a slump is a great way to distract yourself and power through the valley.

Day 128. My jaw is sore again. Like it has been many times throughout my quit. Two weeks of cruise control before a sore jaw. The farther I get along in my quit, the longer the better spans get. I am neither worried nor anxious about this. KTC has given me a brotherhood and a system to realize the nic b*tch is sneaky and is always for a crack in the door to sneak back in. NNT nor any day.
