Day 77.
Still in the funk. Based on my last stops I never could have imagined the mind fuck nicotine withdrawal can cause. When I woke up my arms, hands and legs were tingling like crazy and my mind racing. This funk has been going on now for 12 days. Last night I had bad fog and anxiety. My brain was screaming for nicotine but I wasn’t listening. I have no idea how long this shit will go on but I have no desire to cave because I vividly remember my last stop that lasted 14 years. I felt great. I enjoyed life, I looked forward to things, I spent time with my family rather hiding from them or making excuses so I could ninja dip. Fuck nicotine!!!!! I will not dip today.
Man, you are IN it! All the advice you need has been given out. I don't have much more to offer up either. I wish there was a legit timeline that we could offer up but every quitter is different. It will pass, brother. It will. You're in your own head about it all and anxiety of this type can be a self fulfilling thing. You kind of feed the demon, so to speak. Keep in front of your mind that your body is 100% free of nicotine. It literally has no physical hold on you! Keep busy and listing and celebrating these +1 days. That IS important. You ARE winning. Period!
Well, it’s one louder, isn’t it? It’s not ten.

Day 75. Groundhog Day here again. Fear (anxiety) is the symptom of the day. Never had anxiety while I was dipping. Don’t know why quitting dip causes anxiety but I guess it does. What I do know though is that I won’t dip today.
With you for the next 24 sir. MN/2,679
Rock on, brother

Day 74. Woke up to fear today. Nothing to be afraid of but my brain is firing fear. Hell of a way to start the day. Quitting is a mind fuck. One thing I don’t fear is that I know I will never dip again. I promise myself that the devils dirt will never go in my lip again.
I make that promise with you, not for forever, but for TODAY. The 24 hours we've been given are all that we can control. Focus one day at a time.
I promise not to dip today.
With ya today, bro
Thank you.
Honored to quit with you today sir.
