Jon, your awful quite other than posting roll, how about an update? How are you feeling? How's the quit going?

Jon, how are you doing? Your first weekend quit, watch all those triggers. If you need anything, don't hesitate to reach out.

Rock Day 3 brother, it only gets better!
Some of my fondest and clearest memories are peeing in places that aren't bathrooms.

Thank You everybody for the support! I really appreciate it!! There have been some pretty rough spots the past couple days! But im getting through them and holding on just fine!!
Jon, have you gotten phone numbers from other quitters?
This ^^^ is something to pay particular attention to.

I fought it for awhile. I thought it was weird giving my phone digits to random dudes of questionable motivation. I mean... It IS the internet and weirdos be here!

Le'me tell ya... Get over that right now. There are days where that "how ya doin'?" text comes at the exact right time. There are cravings that are squashed by texting someone a "What the F*~k is going on!?"

Build your support network and understand that now is not be time to be shy about it. Who better to hold you up than those who are going through it right now with you and those, like me, who have gone through that beginning hell and have come through to the beauty of the other side? We're there man. You need to hear from your bros in the same trench and you need to hear from those of us who left the trench behind telling you "it gets better".

Let me know if I can help in any way... Rock on.
A-jack is right...giving your number out to random dudes is a great idea. (wait...that doesn't...uh, that's not what I meant).

You got this, brother!

Welcome Jon. It's not easy but it's damn well worth it. Read man, read here until your eyes burn. Don't ever forget these words, "this is an addiction, one that you can control or can control you, your choice." Hang on, it's going to be a rough few days.
