I've been lurking around this forum for awhile as I've summoned up the courage to join and final admit I have a problem. Anyways, 2 days quit - I had my last chew on Friday, July 30th. I'm 26, started smoking when I was about 16, smoked cigarettes for a few years. Then I decided that was going to kill me, so switched to snus, and in the last few years, to dip. I had a pretty strong attachment to Copenhagen going, was doing about a can and a half a day up until recently. My wife hates it, but I finally realized that I can't do this for anyone other than myself. I've quit before, sometimes a few days, sometimes a few weeks, but always go back to it. But all that's done, I need a change and I'm fucking fed up enough to make one.
I'm in the fog BAD right now, the last 2 days have been a blur. Almost driven off the road a few times, but I've read how the fog comes and goes, so I'm pushing through it. Been using Smokey Mountain just so I have something to do with my fucking lip, the oral fixation drives me nuts. Drinking lots of water, slept for 12 hours last night it was great. I know peer pressure and drinking are my two biggest obstacles to this, but I want to do it finally. Sick of how nicotine makes me feel. The first rush is great, then it's all downhill and I just crave it more and more. I want to get in better shape and take control for once in my life. Gonna be a long road, but it's day by day, minute by minute.
Looking forward to some great support for you guys. Joining a quit group right after I finish posting this.
