I'm on day 30 of my quit. I've noticed I'm getting some anxiety and dizziness. Foggy sort of. Is that normal for around 30 days? I feel funny then I feel funny. It comes and goes. Why would it make me dizzy?

All the feelings are natural. You have been a member since Jan and haven't posted roll yet, Get over to your May group and start posting roll,exchange some digits also go to the introductions section here, you will get introduce yourself better.
Start posting and make that promos to keep that garbage out of your mouth.
I quit with you today.

How do I find my group? Use the search?

To find your quit group, go to the quit group page, then look for the date ranges of the pre-HOF groups. A Jan 30 quit date puts you in the May 2016 group. Say hello, post roll, get your quit on.

Six years ago today, I put the can down. Thank you KTC! I could not have done it without all of YOU!

Today, I found this article. http://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-ne ... ts-n538296

After 5 years, I'm on day 74, I keep getting panic attacks and anxiety in class. I can't focus for more than 10 minutes on anything anymore. Almost cracked, then I realized I'd be letting my friends, family, and most importantly myself down. I just keep thinking about how sad it is that I let such a stupid thing have such an enormous hold on my life. I'm going to keep fighting the good fight, but its getting harder when my grades are starting to tank.

Just waiting for my triple digit day.

Hang in there my man... know that things get better.

That being said, don't think that you'll be "cured" at 100 days or all your ills will suddenly go away. Day 100 is a milestone, and a huge one at that, but it's not the end of the road.

Don't worry about "forever". Take it day by day and before you know it you'll look back and have hundreds and thousands of day under your belt. I know that seems far off now but it's the truth.

Quit today. Repeat tomorrow. It's that simple.

As Sensei Chewie said, take it one day at a time (ODAAT) triple digits are just a starting point. I am at 212 and the Nic Bitch hits me up every day telling me to take that dip. She has been driving me crazy since the weather has been nice. Don't listen to her, she will tell you it will help you do everything better, she is a liar!
The face stuff helps, but we know its not like the original, and it should not be because we quit that garbage.
I quit with you today.
My name is Rob and I'm an addict.

Hey there....I quit cold turkey this past New Year but I have started back this past week. Been using for 14 years prior...really just looking for some helpful hints/tips. I was fine until things got stressful at work and I broke down this past Monday. The daily urge is now incredibly strong. I honestly thought I had it beat but obviously not.....thanks in advance.

join the june quit group and post roll everyday

Yeah, it sounds like you did well on your own but you lacked accountability, support and routine. ^^^ join up

Well... Day one. Been dipping for about 5 years now, never had any luck with quitting. I have tried multiple times but could never get over that hump. I big trigger of mine is just driving in the car. Gum seems to help a little bit. Any suggestions would be wonderful, I want this damn habit to be kicked!! Seeing this website helps, knowing there are so many others like me out there.

Glad you are here. I don't know if anyone has told you. Post roll everyday. I believe you will be in the same group as I am "Pre HOF June......" As far as a coping skill for you and driving. What ever works is the best answer, though vague it may be. For when I am craving something in my lip I go for Bacc Off or Smoky Mountain. Non nicotene. Just there to take care of the oral fixation. be prepared for day 3 (or there abouts) withdrawals might kick you hard. Drink plenty of Gator/Power aide and water. Keep Aspirin, Ibuprofen, Aleve, Tylenol nearby. Might also get some eye drops. My eyes gummed up. Not trying to scare you. Telling you so you can be aware and not use it as an excuse to use.
