9 down, 10 on deck.
@Bug Guy I get what your saying. Im not sure how to best state it but the ease at which the fake stuff has replaced the real stuff gives me pause. I dont recall craving a dip of snuff just for the nicotine. I do recall many times where i just needed something between my cheek and gums. I guess im just trying to reconcile the addition to nicotine with the habit of dipping in my mind. I know the first part was going to be a bitch, i didn't realize that the latter would be stronger.
Today was another good day. Woke up pretty early (sleep was neither bad nor good) and posted on roll call. decided to crawl back into bed for a bit for another hour or so after. Went and grabbed some breakfast and parked up to watch some tv. Got a short workout in just to keep up the habit and decided to enjoy a glass of Rye tonight.
Overall another pretty good day.
I absolutely get that. The pinch between gum and cheek is my biggest problem still. But i look at it, at least it's just coffee grinds. I know eventually i will get tired of it and it will be an afterthought. But for now, posting roll, helping others, and using grinds is my recipe. There's times where i go a whole week without using it. But it's there just in case. Obviously you must do what works best for you. Exercise and hydration is very important too. Keeping your body and your mind right suppresses alot of those withdrawals early on. Yeah, I know, nic is out of your system in 3 days blah blah blah, but your mind will tell you well beyond that, that you still need it. As long as good goes in, good comes out. Keep pushing through and remember to celebrate those wins each day. You're doing great!
