Hi everyone,
So I found this site after I started my quit. I am about 86 hours, or 3.5 days into it. I am holding strong but man do I feel weird. It's a feeling like I'm forgetting something....strange, and kinda twitchy. Last night I stalked around my house for hours stopping by our room to tell my wife, "something isn't right hon" as I checked and rechecked all the doors for the 50th time. Everything was fine, i think it was just me that "wasn't right" :).
Also, I can't sleep, even with ambien. It's a good thing I took the week off work. In any case im feeling crappy but I'm feeling proud of myself, and my wife has told me several times she is proud of me, which helps a bit. I'm using coffee grounds mixed with honey as a dip substitute, it helps a bit. Thinking of trying smokey mountain that I found on this site. Wish I'd known about it before I started. After meals is the worst.
Anyway good luck to everyone Who is starting a quit soon. And keep strong to everyone who is in the middle of a quit. I know you can do it! I talked to a guy today who told me he was 24 years clean off dip. It gave me so much hope!
