Title: How'd I get here?
Post by: 17YearsASlave on November 17, 2015, 09:53:00 PM
17 years. I can't believe it! I've dipped for 1/2 of my life. I just finished day 3 of the of my quit. Never really tried quitting before this, never really was ready. Fell asleep Saturday evening, woke up and decided to head to bed instead of throwing in a dip. Woke up the next morning and said, "eff it. I'm done." At 8:15 tonight I hit the 72-hour mark. This is the 1st time I haven't had any Nic in my system since I was a junior in high school.

So far, a few things. This feels like being hungover off the crappiest vodka possible. It's awfully hard to focus on anything right now. Another thing is that I'm pooping like crazy. Of course, I'm also struggling to sleep. Big moment came yesterday when I threw out 4-full cans of dip, I know I'll have the temptation, but now I don't have the access,

Great site. Not sure what to do next

Posting roll opens up a lot of support here. You will become a member of a quit group that is going through this with you. Why quit alone when you can share your quit with others? Being here every day to post your promise will make it more real for you and might answer that "what next?" question.

The good news is that after three days, all the nicotine is out of your system. We call that hung over feeling the fog. It's our poisoned nuero transmitters screaming for more poison. Pretty messed up, huh? You perfectly described the suck. You don't ever want to go through the suck again. To insure that doesn't happen, we make a daily commitment to a bunch of quit brothers and ourselves to obstain for a day. It's a proven method and it is infallible. Get yourself on roll call and you'll never have to go through this again, breaking the chains daily.
