DAY 1

[Reaper]

Thanks for the advice Pinched. if i go fight a bear i will call you first or at least have it on you tube for all to see. i will find a way to release the anger so it is not all bottled up inside cause i know all that does is make the next argument even worse cause the bottled up rage always finds a way to come out.

Day 3 of the quit:

Well last night was interesting to say the least. The wife felt it was her civial duty to make my life hell yesterday for some damn reason. when i got home from work it only esculated. the craving for a dip was extreme or even a cigarette but after reading some of the post where these guys went so far and slipped up i said i cant let that happen no matter how hard the shit is. the pressure went on and on even till this morning she is still on my ass but thank God for the man that invented sunflower seeds and flavored water.

i am trying to ignore all the stress causing me to want the dip and finding ways to occupy that time by staying busy and now i have to take online courses for my job. this is when the cravings are gonna kick in the most but i am sure that the nic bitch will not win.

thanks to all that have helped me and keep helping me by telling me what to expect. i know that it will get worse before it gets better but i am confidient with all of your help i will beat this habits ass.

Reaper,
My only additional advice would be not to ignore the anger, you can't take true primal rage and bottle it up, it will explode. Do something physical today: punch a heavy bag, work out, run, ride a bike, fight a bear...

I am glad to hear that you are staying quit and you seem to have one hell of a drive with your QUIT. Reach out to me if I can help in any way. Also PM me immediately if you decide to fight a bear, I have been wanting to witness that for a long time.

Awesome job Reaper. You are doing this quit right my friend. Hey don't worry about the munches. It's all fair game. You cannot eat anything that's worse for you than that nic. My favorite? Drumsticks/Nuttybuddies. By the box full. But that does last a long time. So eat whatever you want. As the caves subside, and I promise they will, you will naturally start eating healthier. Just take it one day at a time. Congrats on finishing up day 2. Great job.

[Mike from AB]

Well I made it through day 1 and almost done with day 2. the cravings are getting more difficult but the damn munchies are overpowering them lol. i feel like after i kick the crap out of the nicotine monkey i will need a personal trainer to help with the extra weight i am going to pack on.

i want to thank all of you that have been posting with me thus far and it makes it alot easier to deal with when your talking to others about it and trying to figure out how you gonna do this by yourself. i know the times ahead of me are gonna be harder but i have faith that the support group i have here will guide me through it.

if your reading this and havent decided to stop yet please join this group there is alot of good people in here that are honestly here to help you through this difficult time.

well with that said i am gonna go and finish kicking day 2's ass.

i am here for anyone if you need me.

Day 2 is done? Awesome work bro! That's the 2 hardest +1s  you done it!

[ParadigmDawg]

Damn Reaper....did you just about go 48 hours without a dip? You may end up being one bad ass quitter.

Hell...I will quit with you.

[Reaper]

Thanks for the advice Rick sent them a PM and hopefully it will all be in one location for tracking progress.

[rickddd]

Hey Reaper, you should keep all this in the same thread, so its all together and you can come back to it all. If you ask the mods, they will merge it into your other thread.
I mean you dont have to, but I think it would be cool to see all your progress along the way in the same thread.

Thanks all for the support i am drinking water for the first time in a while and eating sea salt black pepper seeds and the cravings are starting to ease off. the trick is i am finding ways to keep my mind off the dip and on other things like posting in here or projects that keep me busy.

Atta Boy Luther!

Hell yeah reaper!!! Your doing it man, keep it up. Keep posting roll and keep on reaching out. The cravings get easier to deal with but don't count out using fake snuff like smokey mountain or Jakes Mint Chew etc. That stuff has really helped me. Holler if you need anything

P.S. Bacon flavored seeds. They're so good that your toungue will slap your brains out trying to get at them.

[Bean]

Well done, Reaper!!! 2 days is huge. Click around in the Quit Groups...not just yours, but a few other months and even years. All of those folks were once where you are. And none of those folks got where they are now without kicking the Nic Bitch's ass on Day 2. YOU GOT THIS, BROTHER!!!

[CaliforniaSlim]

Nice work so far Reaper. Keep it up. Stay involved.

[rickddd]

You're kicking ass, Reaper! Keep it up! this is how its done, you need to vent or need a distraction, you come on here and post, or you call/text somebody.
You really should try the LIVE CHAT link in the upper right, great distraction and great way to meet some other badass quitters on this site.

Hang in there reaper!
