Worktowin 3,948. My buddy’s dad passed away yesterday. Today I promise no nicotine. Way too much cancer in the world to tempt that fate. Honored to quit with this team of bad asses.
Day 126.
I promise not to dip today. Sorry for your buddy’s loss.

Day 125. My quit is safe today because I promised myself not to dip today.
If you type it here, your promise is to more than just yourself.

Day 124.
Feeling a little bit better this morning. Mind storm is calmer. Hopefully it. Continues. Still no enjoyment in anything but that should return in time.
Glad to be quit with you all.
I promise not to dip today.
MN/2,728 with you on this rainy Friday. Happy to hear things are better than yesterday.

worktowin 3,746.  Fall is upon us.  Cooling down here in the Midwest.  Looking forward to the weekend.  Quit with you, man.  One foot in front of the other.  The wins are stacking up.
Just went through a couple hours of intense vertigo along with some anxiety. It’s calming again but now I feel a little shell shocked. Also left me with a bad headache. It’s crazy how this healing process works.
I went through Benzodiazepine withdrawal that lasted nearly 4 years. I went into what is called Protracted Withdrawal. It was hell on earth and actually it was worse than nicotine withdrawal. Unfortunately because I was so relieved that it was over and also thinking that I would never have to go through any kind of withdrawal again I was really blindsided by nicotine withdrawal. I didn’t know there was even such a thing because my last few stops back in the 90s and 2005 had no withdrawal at all. It feels similar to benzodiazepine withdrawal but the anxiety isn’t quite as strong and minus the seizures. I had 3 of them during early benzo withdrawal. Not downplaying nicotine withdrawal, it’s bad and it sucks. Glad to be quit with you all.
ODAAT.

Day 123.
Sorry about the he foul language but I hate the nic bitch with all the fiber in my body. Feeling a little less anxious and depressed today but I’m not counting my chickens before they hatch. One hour at a time. One day at a time. Today I promise myself that I will not dip.
3,745.  Same promise here.  Dear friend of mine has a dad that is going on hospice today with cancer.  Really glad that we all make the decision to not do that to ourselves purposely each day.  Reminded of what my brother went through with tongue cancer, no thank you!  Honored to quit with this esteemed group.
