Quit Day 05/29/2013

[Dougie]

So today the fog has lifted a bit; I know it will be back but I am enjoying being able to read again and being able to do some of my job!

I feel like today I have spent more time thinking about the poison. I have some serious oral fixation issues; I had a dip in my mouth from bed-up to bed-down so it isn't too surprising that I constantly need something in my mouth. I wonder what my coworkers think?? That dude is constantly eating sunflower seeds or shoveling atomic fireballs in his mouth!
I wasn't a spitter before and my ninja skills were quite remarkable- plus I would keep the same dip for 3+ hours so the odor would be gone or masked by coffee.

Anyway- none of that shit matters. I am so fucking happy to be 19 days nicotine free.

ODAAT - NAFAR

I normally only shit myself when I am out running- I was actually hoping that quitting chew would help stop that- I have been known to shit up to 6 times on a 5 mile run when I go out in the morning. So far I am still shitting regularly.

Irritated as fuck today- and feeling foggy-

Been quit 380? (I lose track) days and I'm irritable today as well. Too many stupid people out here. No fog though, thankfully.

Ill quit and shit with you today.

I farted today and pooped my pants a little bit.  I pushed too hard.  I pulled over at a gas station and threw my drawers out.  Free balled it for the rest of the day.  Felt kinda nice. 

That is all.  Quit on people.

Proud to SHART with you today.

Add me to the list of Proud to Schardt with you!!!

Back from vacation!

What a relief it was to go away somewhere and not have to smuggle chew around like the dirt bag I was 17 days ago! I didnt have too many cravings while gone- the sunflower seeds and atomic fireballs did the job as well as posting up daily and talking to my wife about it.


I thought I found a new oral device in my war against nicotine until a moment ago when I was reading the label... Ricola sugar free drops! They have a nice herbaceous flavor but I just noticed that "excessive use may have a laxative effect" well fuck I dont need to shit my pants so I better figure out what "excessive use" is; could be the aspartame.

Uuuuummmmm, yeah. Been there. Not fun.

Dip is a laxative, and some quitters have documented in full detail their tales of constipation once they quit. (go to the last page of this guy's intro for some hilarity) Most sugarless hard candy can have a laxitive effect if eaten in mass quantities. So, in this regard the sugarless candy may keep you "regular".

Weight gain is a common side affact of quitting, and many quitters accept it. Shove anything into your face that doesn't contain Nic, and address the weight gain later when your oral fixations lessen. If you are really worried about that now, again, sugarless candy may be for you.

However, if you are like me, and find yourself in your car a lot for work and have a major phobia of bathrooms, accept the extra calories of sugar-ladden candy and avoid those side effects. Your khakis will thank you.

Today the suck runs hard and deep. I feel like I have a hangover the fog is thick. I keep getting these jolts of nervous energy or something when I talk to people I get chills up the back of my head or it feels like my eyes are welling up with tears.

The more this sucks the more determined I am going to be to beat this everyday for the rest of my life.

Fuck that. Let's do this this afternoon.

What ya got going on today? What do you plan on doing to stay quit now? How far are you willing to go to stay quit?

12 year old's baseball game right after work. After baseball I planned on frying up the fish that the boys caught with their grandpa yesterday. Then I plan on loading up the car for the 22 hour drive to Florida for family vacation.

Not only do I come here every morning for roll call but I have started pledging the same thing to my wife, eye to eye. It is a very emotional time for me- I guess that I dont have a "plan" - this is what I do when I get a craving a grab seeds, fireballs, gum, whatever, then I log on to KTC and vent or read other vents whatever it takes to take my mind off of the current crave. I am not going to give in to this I am going to battle with everything that I have and if I feel like I am getting my ass kicked in then I have a few numbers to call, this thread to vent in, a wife to lean on.

This is the first quit that I didn't "plan" I just did. It is also the longest I have gone without nicotine in 23 years. I am winning today.

And my friend, stay with what you are doing as you will win this battle. If I could do it so can you.

yell if you need anything

What he said.

You got any numbers?

thank you guys for the support and thank you to all the KTC people- I do have some numbers and I have given mine out. I know that I would not be 6 days deep without this place.

Never take for granted that "wife to lean on." If she's not your biggest quit fan, make it a priority. The quit is yours, but you have to look her in the eye every damn day. And don't be afraid of the tears early on or ever. Many of us felt like we were losing a friend when we quit. It feels like that early on (and later on,) but we HAVE to let that friend go. I have shed many a tear over the last 143 days, but the basis for every tear was how important MY quit was to me first and everybody else second. Quit on, brother.
