Day 3, looking at all the comments and great information and support here. It makes me very proud to be a quitter with all of you.
I haven't been much good outside of working hours this week tho. I've been a bad dad and not too much of a hubby either. I feel like not doing anything after 6 pm, all I want to do is lay in the recliner and go to bed early. So I do, and I end up waking up 6-8 times a night and I'm usually up at least an hour before my alarm goes off. That's coming from a guy that normally sleeps like a log, never hearing anything in the middle of the night. I'm hoping this will pass soon.
The sleep will level itself out, once your body finds its real normal. Hopefully sooner rather than later.

Dam proud of you man. Day 3, the nic is out of your system, it's mind games from here. And you're digging right in, using your tools and making connections. The nic bitch doesn't stand a chance. Like Frank said, you better call me before you take a dip.

Day 2 was my favorite.

Not really. It was the worst for me. Day 3 was slightly better, but still rough. Day 4 wasn't great, yet a slight improvement. Day 5 was a bit more normal. Day 6... Something weird happened on day 6; I felt ok.

It's been getting better everyday since, and I wouldn't trade that first week for anything, now. IQWYT!

Rheleaf, congrats on the best decision of your life. I dipped for 24 years and am on Day 103. It gets better but you have to embrace the suck and quit hard each and every day.

Posting roll every morning will give you the strength you need to quit each day, it's an awesome feeling.
Congrats on the stop. Remember, half a jaw, no tongue and a funeral sucks a whole lot too. Remember this suck and remember it well. Next time a crave hits and you get to thinking, remember how bad this sucks and see if you ever wish to do it again. I decided it sucked bad enough no dip, cig or cigar in the world is ever worth it. I enjoy the company here much better than them money sucking bastards at the convenience store.

Take care and I quit with you all EDD!

Day 2
« on: December 20, 2017, 08:58:00 PM »
Hey guys,
Been dipping now for 19 years, half my Life!
I am on about 46 hours quit. I haven't tried to quit in about 5 years  the last time I tried to quit I think I made it all the way to supper time on day 1. Pathetic!

I found his place by a horrible family tragedy. I already love it. Reading on here made me realize that i love nic more than i love my kids, my wife, everything. Nic takes priority #1 in my life. And that pisses me off, makes me sick to my stomach, and mostly makes me sad. How could I let this happen? I am here to change me and I need it in a bad way.

I've managed to mess up my roll call both days I've done it, hope I get better at that.

Day 1  2 suck. I feel strange. I'm hot one min. Cold the next. All i can think about is nic. Taking saunas nightly Thinking it will help me shed of the sodium from all the seeds I've been mowing down. Drinking water like a crazy man because I can't get this bad taste out of my mouth like cotton mouth all the time. One good thing about quitting near Christmas is the fact that there are candy canes everywhere. I dont feel any better, i feel.worse. But I know this is worth it. I still love nic, but by the time I'm done with this first week I'm sure i will hate it.

It seems the worst time for me is 3pm-6pm I don't know why but that's the worst time ever. I'm still quit,
