Title: Day 4 here I come
Post by: Ariana5866 on March 01, 2017, 07:23:00 PM
I have went 3 solid days! I am beyond proud of myself! I had tried to quit before but fell back into the dark hole... I now know what it will have to take to push on! 27 years old and only getting older time for self discipline and self perseverance! I want to thank everyone here who has pushed me and has stood behind me! When I reach my 100th day it wont just be the day I celebrate quitting I will be celebrating you guys too!!


Day #21 - Well here I am at 3 weeks quit! The first week was the worst! The fatigue, anxiety, depression.... But I pushed through and kept on keeping on! Today I have fog that creeps in but creeps out just as fast! I have more mental clarity then ever!

My advice to everyone who is ready to be quit is:
1. Never look back
2. Its going to be hard, but its worth every hard day that you have.
3. You have to have a positive outlook on this experience.
4. Always know you are always going to be an addict!
5. Please lean on your group for hardships that is what we all are here for!

With that being said, Be Quit  Stay Quit!!!

Day #61

The days are beginning to pile up on me and its exciting! To think I had tried to quit before and never made it passed day 4 or 5... Super thankful for KTC and my KTC family! Without everyone standing behind me and always there to push me when needed I couldn't have came this far!!

Here recently I have experienced some rage, some depression, and tons of insomnia. The insomnia finally seems to be lightening up for the most part. Rage and depression come and go.

New quitters if you're reading this always know that no matter how hard things get you will always have us here at KTC to lean on and get you through the toughest of days!!

Day 100 is a huge milestone, but don't forget it's still just another day. Quit everyday, worry about 100 when it gets here, and remember, 101 is even better.

Never cured

I see a great quit developing here. One suggestion: Instead of editing your original post every time you want to update your quit journey, just make a new post. Then you get some chronological order to the journey, and people can join you for a few steps along the way. See my intro to understand what I'm trying to say.

I'm strolling along the quit with you today. See you on roll tomorrow.

A strong, solid, serious Quitter. That's what I see here. Strong. But that doesn't mean you don't need a shoulder every now and then.

Day 76 - The fog has been a here and there thing once again.. I can say the fixation feeling has drastically reduced! I have noticed my other senses has become much stronger as well! Holy Crap food is amazing again... Maybe a bit too amazing haha
I have been reaching out to new quitters helping them in anyway possible knowing how the beginning was for me I knew they needed a friend who had been there... a little over 3 weeks until I hit HOF... quite excited about that and its a huge motivation! Once there the next milestone is 200!

If I can give any advice at this point in my quit it is to be positive! you can't have a negative outlook all that will do is pull you under further... Know you are strong! know you can do this!!

Wise words. Keep rocking it! Nothing will shore up your quit more than getting invested in other's quits.

Proud to be quit with you.

^^^what chick said. My first post on this thread, but I've been watching...and quits like this keep me inspired. I can promise you this...keep posting roll and it will keep getting better. A very good friend of mine always said that...it just keeps getting better. Almost 3 1/2 years later, and it still keeps getting better for me. Nourish that quit with roll and it's all pay dirt from here.

Today I am day 107! When they forewarn you of the after HOF funk do NOT take that lightly... I was doing absolutely fine until a couple of days ago then BOOM the worst cravings and that lovely fog set in... I keep my HOF coin on me at all times to have it to pull out and hold to keep telling myself "you have come this far do not dare look back" it really helps... Along with all of the friends I have gathered here at KTC... Never be afraid to reach out to someone when things get rough!!

Great advice, Ari. Keep that coin as a reminder. After 2,600 + days, I still carry mine daily.

Just remember, we poisoned ourselves for how ever many years we did, and it's going to take a little more time that 100 days for your body to stop throwing temper tantrums. I will tell you this - the craves will start to become fewer, farther between, and way, way more manageable. It get SO MUCH better!

Stay Strong!

Stay Quit!

Here I am on day 151... Insomnia has set in and the emotional train wreck is right there with it... I have started a new workout routine and have switched up my diet a bit so hopefully soon I will be able to get a good night's sleep... Today was a weird day for me
.. Out of nowhere I just started bawling... There was no reason for it or none that I was aware of... After the tears dried up I become super snappy and just ill as all get out... Annnnndddd then the tears reappeared... I finally stopped and have been fine since... It's really incredible just how bad nicotine screws with your body...

Newbies if you read this.. One second, one hour, one day at a time... You're not gonna be healed over night...

I have only been able to sleep 4 hours max. Day 14 here. I don't require much sleep anyways(young kids). I have started using melatonin again though and it seems to help get me to sleep and keep me there for a while. It is insane how much it screwed us up. I literally don't know what normal feels like. I was against using the fake stuff as a crutch in my quit, but i have realized that i would rather chew the imitation stuff the rest of my life that to touch a can of cope again. I am a quitter, 100%. Whatever it takes, i will not pick up a tin again.

See you in chat Ari, although I haven't been there much as of late.

Newbies if you read this.. One second, one hour, one day at a time... You're not gonna be healed over night...
I have only been able to sleep 4 hours max. Day 14 here. I don't require much sleep anyways(young kids). I have started using melatonin again though and it seems to help get me to sleep and keep me there for a while. It is insane how much it screwed us up. I literally don't know what normal feels like. I was against using the fake stuff as a crutch in my quit, but i have realized that i would rather chew the imitation stuff the rest of my life that to touch a can of cope again. I am a quitter, 100%. Whatever it takes, i will not pick up a tin again.

See you in chat Ari, although I haven't been there much as of late.
Two weeks is awesome! Keep that determination and that positive mindset!!

Legendary start to your quit Ari. Many a quitter, new and old, should jump on your quit train because it is pedal to the metal, full-tilt, 24/7. It's been an invigorating ride thus far

Today marks 255 days..

Newbies/not so newbies keep vigilant... the 250's has brought a new funk for myself...

I finally have experienced this depressed feeling I have been hearing about.. completely out of character for myself.. but with the help of awesome quitters I'm getting through it ODAAT...

Please remember to get digits, because in times like these they are worth gold!

Ari, you just keep doing what you're doing. Anytime you're feeling down, just look at the legion of followers you've created for yourself over these past 255 days. It's a remarkable thing; something you should be very proud of.
