I just wanted to put it out there for those who are continuing in the struggle to quit or keep quit and honestly just do it. It sucks ya it feels like you're losing your best friend but really you're putting down the dog thats been sick for a long time. It does nothing good for you and people fail to realize that. I finally have spending money for things i want instead of need. I can taste better, smell better, and my blood pressure is down. There's nothing but benefits to quitting that shit, it's just do you have the balls do face that you can function without it and wake up every morning to post your promise to you and your group? Stay quit

Anxiety and Depression sucks.. but what doesn't suck is getting paid good! The new job is awesome, purchasing and inventory management! Great resume boosting and I love the gig. Can't wait for warm weather on the lake!

So here we are i guess, hitting the 130s and wow! Do i feel like i'm on day one! My anxiety has been very bad and I feel like i'm losing myself. My panic attacks are back, guess is the late HOF funk. I'll conquer it though, i can't explain the emotion i'm feeling. I'm guessing its just depression and anxiety. I'll keep you guys update... 'bang head'
Hey Smiff...
I hit that 150 Mark like you...then 190 to about 199wad hard for me... Depression set in for a while, Someone had to tell me, "its a funk, it will pass". And, it did, but i tell you, it had me freaked out a bit, i had no idea where it was coming from at the time it first started happening.
After 200, hit a few rough areas, but fewer and farther between.
Hang in there. Smiff, your a tough dog.
I remember that stretch... it sucked ass. I totally logged it in my intro but I'm too lazy to find it.

It was basically this...
You just spent every ounce of energy hitting that HOF mark. And it was goooood. Damn good! You ride that high for a little while y'know? Not very long but... a little while. It's that endorphin fade after a kick-ass workout. I ride about 20 miles a day and I love that afterglow. Anyway... it isn't long before you realize the sprint is actually a helluva lot longer than you realized. In fact... it's not a sprint at all. Dammit! The bigger picture intrudes a bit and, despite our day to day mantra, the long view is something you start to think about. I hit that around 130 too. Made me a li'l geeky for a bit so I just refocused and powered through. Tried to take a moment and enjoy that Quit from the front porch... enjoying the view I created.

Do the same, man. Slow down and revel in your accomplishment. Use the tools that got you here.
