Also bro... You need to be posting how hellish this all is. There will probably come a time down the road where you need to be reminded, by YOURSELF, how much right now sucks. Sucks balls. Sucks big hairy sweaty balls. Never again bro. This is your diary to your future self... "I am quit. I am wading through this shit and winning! Don't put me through this again!"

Quit on brother!
Well, it’s one louder, isn’t it? It’s not ten.

jrod.. saw that you posted on a thread that you did not like posting about your quit since right now it sucks. So I will do it for you. You have been quit for 30 days and you are a badass! Not many people have the guts to do what you are doing. You are reaching out to quitters new and old and making their quits stronger. In turn, it is making your quit stronger. Everyone's quit has and ebb and flood to it - sometimes you are up and sometimes you are down. The key is to keep your eye on the prize - and that is being QLF ODAAT! You are that "quit guy"! Proud to be quit with you bro! I am quit with you today!
^^^^^And this is why this site works. We feel a bit off not ourselves and poof here comes a bro or sis to quote Cbird carry the water for you. Nice looking out for each other.

Jrod keep your head up trust me it gets better you just gotta pay your dues right now. You didn't F yourself up over night you wont get better that quick either. You body is going through all kinds of changes right now at the same time. Your brain is rewiring you muscles are and all your organs are getting more O2 you are learning to make your own go juice instead or getting it out of a can.

You will get there just keep doing what you are doing +1's

Thank you. This is perfect. I've tried to explain in my own words why I have been so short-tempered, tired and borderline depressed, and this explains it clearly.
If they are not addicts they wont get it. I told mine ok since you dont get it lets go get a box of patches and double patch you for one month on then I will stop the nicotine and then you can see why I am such a prince. Even when I thought I was doing good I was probably an incredible ass hole. I had to bite my tongue all the time if I could stop myself. Nicotine should be illegal if you ask me everything else that is that addictive is. There is just too much money to be made thats why it isnt.
She doesn't get it now, which is why I'd like her to read that spouse section. I don't need her to really understand the addiction, but it's helpful to have a 3rd party say "your husband will be an asshole for a while, this is the reason, and this is normal."
should read your husband is going to be more of an ass WHOLE...lol She prolly wont get it but as long as it is written on the internet it has to be true. Mine didnt like the part how it says dont nag your partner... blah blah but now she sees the positive parts about me being quit. Now and then she will toss out a hey what day are you on...
Yeah I saw that the first words of #1 are "Don't nag." Doesn't seem like the best way to start.
oh there's the rub - quitting is difficult but it does not give us license to be a jerk or an ass to our spouses. Workouts helped me release the rage that would build up. Similarly to identifying the crave waves, you will start to see warning signals about your rage level which is when you man up and say time up - walk away and get on the site or call a quit guardian -brother. You might tell her well before hand that you are not trying to run away but trying to develop more self control.

Remember we are reaping what we sowed for too damn long. It will pass just like the fog.

Agreed.... My wife is a mental health counselor, and though she does not know addiction first hand she understands the chemical changes it has made to our brains.... so it helps to have our wives at least understand the why. Sometimes I have a thought that I think is genius about my addiction and then she ruins it for me and explains the clinical reason for what I thought was an original idea!. Damn!
