I mentioned this to some folks at the PA quit meet a few days ago so I I'll add it here too in case it will help other quitters.
I used to have random nightmares about college. Usually they were about having some final exam to take and realizing that I never attended the class and also did not know where on campus I needed to be to take the final exam. I always woke up confused and feeling like I flunked out.
I don't seem to have the college nightmares anymore, but now I have a lot of caving dreams instead. I think my brain just needs to have nightmares and now the worst nightmare I can ever have is posting a DAY ONE. :P
Two years ago I was in a seemingly hopeless brutal fog. I won that fight with all of the support here and I'm not going to let a few bad dreams take me back to that place ever again. I quit with you all today and I can't wait to post roll tomorrow.
This is a great post Dave.
Even at 2 years... It gets better from here. The dreams will become fewer and fewer. The intensity will fade. But the winning will feel better and the freedom will be "freer"... Easier and more normalized. One foot in front of the bother bro... I quit with you today.
...and when Michael says it continues to get better, it absolutely does. He's been telling me that since day 1 and it's so damn true on so many levels. Hope to catch you next year at the PA meet. Until then QLF brother.
Great post Dave, thanks for your support to all the quitters on here.
I had a cave dream myself recently and was wondering WTF was wrong, because I rarely if at all even think about dip anymore.
Nice to know I wasnt alone.
Weird thing is I think my cave dream was just a reminder for me not to get too comfortable, cocky, relaxed, and content. And also a reminder for me to stay vigilant, aware, watchful and get back to KTC as often as I can.
Congrats on your 2 years bud, you're an awesome quitter
