Title: Day 5, but need to introduce myself.
Post by: snotshark on February 27, 2012, 06:05:00 PM
Started dipping 31 years ago and have now begun my "second" quit. In the mid 80's I went over 90 days but fell victim once again and haven't even tried to stop until now. Like I said, I am in day 5 and my mouth is friggin' killing me!! Any suggestions to bring some comfort?

My crutches have been seeds, grapes, raisins, gum, and the jerky in a can. It all sucks so I will probably just stick to gum. Cravings were\are real bad today, but I am going to make it. Today I actually spent the majority of my thinking on how good I will feel, instead of how bad I feel now.

Day 5 sucked to high hell for me. It actually chased me to this site. Thank goodness. I can tell you it got a whole lot better for me starting on day 6.
