Day 58

Pretty good day! Had some thoughts thatÂ’s about all. Was in a great mood all day. Am starting to see the benefits of being quit! LetÂ’s keep this rolling!

Day 57

Pretty good day...

Had to run down to Omaha to get a blade for my pipe puller for my summer gig of installing sprinklers. Navigated traffic well. Stopped for supper outside of town about an hour from home. What do you know....my truck takes a crap...luckily we didnÂ’t break down on the interstate and we were in town by a dealer...well at least I got to drive home a 2018 truck with 22 Miles on it. We will worry about how much it will take to fix my truck later. For now, we are talking about the positives and I won the day! No Nic here!

Day 55

Best day so far. I did have a huge crave at school. Which is weird because I never chewed at school. Got my girls after school and everything was good. I did have a conversation with my wife about how I am kinda scared about the summer because I am not on a schedule like I am at school. Her response...”take one day at a time”.....priceless....ending the day relaxing and all my kids already in bed! Looking forward for tomorrow.

On a side note. With all the crap that I went through with this quit...I passed both of my college courses with AÂ’s. All nic free!! What what!! I am trying to add an endorsement on my teaching lisence.
I just read through your intro. Your tough my dude!
I read some lines you write and think "yep, I know that one"

You will never regret quitting, but you'll always regret the moment you decide to cave. Never let that be a possibility again.

You have some bad ass men supporting you, one of which being the illustrious Athan. Listen to them, lean on them, call/text them in your times of need. My digits are one PM away bro.

Glad I read this tonight. Thank you for helping strengthen my quit Bub!

Quit with you on day 114.

When all the fog has passed you will have become a case study in true grit, determination, and perseverance. Proud just to know you, privileged to be a part of your quit. Hard fought and won. No one has earned it more.

How in the heck do you go from having a great day yesterday to the mood IÂ’m into this morning...this is just mentally maddening.
This is a challenge, the Nic is challenging you. Testing your resolve. These are the most important days of your quit. YOU GOT THIS. Stay close to KTC and your support group. This has happened to all of us at one time or another during the quit. Stay strong, she will pounce on weaknesses.

CanÂ’t complain, it was a great day at home with the family. Might be the best day so far.

The last 6 days I have had anxiety until about 4pm or 5pm. After that my brain flips and I have amazing nights. I need to try and be positive because I am starting to recover. Just taking longer then other people.

Day 51
I made it through a whole week of school without going home and having a panic attack! I did have some anxiety at school but I worked through everything. Next week at school should be even better!

Day 50

Was up all night with the baby.

Morning was actually great at school. By mid-morning I was having some pretty bad anxiety. I just worked through it. By the time school was out till I went to bed I really had a great night. I felt like my old self!
