Title: Tired of being a slave
Post by: Addict#1111 on December 31, 2017, 02:37:00 PM
Hello the name is Adam, I started dipping at 14 and turn 28 in 6 days, I have been quit for 11 days. I know I need 'help' and am a 'trainwreck' .

This is a pretty cool place I have known about it for a long time but I never became active. Now I'am here, active and planning to be quit for good. Nice to know others know exactly how your feeling.

I joined the March 2018 Group and am looking forward to getting to know others on the same journey. I don't have a number that accepts text messages but I use several apps, Voxer, Skype, Facebook are the main three.

So far the anxiety and depression are the huge hurdles for me to get over which is why I decided to get out of the house and go see some friends for the new year. Not sure it's the best idea but hey I won't cave I gave my word. "A man is only as good as his word"

I have been spending a lot of time in the live chat and a few guys have already jumped in to give tips and a little bit of a push up. I wanna say thanks to the ones that have listened to me complain the last couple days it means a lot even if I sound like a whiny bitch lol. I read a quote that said "This to shall pass" I'm kinda holding on to that one. It seems a little better each day so far but barely enough to notice.

Thanks in advance for the support I know I will receive.

I had issues with anxiety also so know your not alone. Some people seem to react different to quitting its our brain trying to get us to take a dip. Getting good sleep helps lower the anxiety. I took melatonin sometimes before I went to bed cause quitting messed with my sleep. I would just take super small dose like 2.5 miligram just to give a little extra help from time to time.
