...and wake up in the morning, my muscles in my arms and legs would be sore and tight. It was the feeling that I used to get when I would have withdrawals. I am on Day 8 of being Dip Free, and the past two days when I wake up I'm still having these withdrawal symptoms.
I know that it will soon pass, but are these what you call "Dip Dreams?" I've been fighting my cravings and triggers pretty well over the last week, but I'm not sure where these are coming from.
Any words of advice would greatly be appreciated!
Advice - Stay strong. This too, shall pass.
Drink water. Tons of it. Get exercise. Those two things will help circulation and can help with your soreness in the morning.
I'm no doctor, and this is not medical advice, but it helps lots of guys.
Understand and remember that feeling you are having is your body throwing a temper tantrum. It's the nic bitch trying to convince you that you need her. You don't.
Dip dreams - sometimes we will have nightmares that we have slipped and started dipping again. They can be very, very real. Some guys will wake up and think they caved. Be aware of them.
Again, that is just your body trying to figure out any way to get nicotine back in your system. Fight it.
Freedom is worth the fight, my brother. You can do this. If I can, you can.
