Quote from: Houpilot2001I find that I will fall into the 5000 yard stare while doing things at work and home. Almost a trance or hypnotic state of nothingness. I am vaguely aware what is going on but almost feel paralyzed for a short time period. Weird.
Feels great doesn't it?? Just kidding. I'm only on day 4, but that fog has already lifted significantly since days 2 and 3. There were times in those couple days where 15 minutes would go by and I had no idea any time had passed at all.

Just remember your brain is rewiring itself to function without the poison, and until that happens you might be missing a few neuron bridges. Stick with this brother.
Pilot, no one on this site had an easy first couple of weeks. No one decided to quit and then miraculously lost the urge to throw in a dip. So we've all been in your shoes, and the one message you can take from that is you CAN do this. Keep posting your thoughts, read everyone elses, and post roll everyday. Ultimately you'll need to find some anger. Anger that US Tobacco is able to sell a highly addictive drug, and market it to kids. Mad that a weed has so much control over you. Mad that quitting is so fucking hard. Get mad stay mad. Good luck

Pilot, if your even a little bit of an introspective guy, learn to live the fog you are in. You can really learn a lot from it. Yeah, it sucks but it can be wonderful sometimes, too.

Quote from: chewieHang in there my man... as everyone else has said, day 1 does indeed suck balls. Sadly, day 2-3 are worse.

However... it does absolutely get better. And not only better... but TREMENDOUSLY better. Like, star bangled awesome, better.

100% so worth it. If it didn't I wouldn't be here nearly 8 years later. Hang in there!

And you don't have to slug through years of suck either. It gets better much faster than that.

Never cured, but quitting like this

What cost is too high?

It sucks until it doesn't, and then you go "whoaaaaa". Worth every difficult moment!
Some of my fondest and clearest memories are peeing in places that aren't bathrooms.

Pilot, welcome. If you think day 1 is hard wait until today and tomorrow. If it gets that bad, go out and chew on your truck/car tire, it isn't bad once you get pass that rubber smell. 'spin' Whatever you do, do NOT take it out on your kids or wife. They did not force you to become an addict.
QuoteI'm doing this for my kids, my wife, MYSELF, my health and my pocketbook
I went ahead and fixed that for you. #1. you quit for yourself, plain and simple because without you there is no family or health or pocketbook, follow?

Read everything these fine quitters have told you. Read my intro. It's 100% truthful. Those first 3 days sucked but oh so worth it. In a short while when you go to kiss the Mrs and she doesn't complain about your shit breath, you're going to feel pretty damn good about yourself. If you need anything at all, PM me. Tim
