day 1.....again

[Tsmith17]

well its going on day 4 and the fog has lifted...head feels good and i can finally feel my face........


lets do this shit.....i beat this bitch once before and i will do it again....!

Love that attitude. Stay quit brother.

I love that attitude as well. I don't remember what day it was, but I do remember a day that I suddenly felt MUCH better. The craves were still there, but more of an annoyance than anything else. Glad your quit is growing strong, D2!

Just a minor, gramatical point: You didn't "beat that bitch once before." If you had beaten her, you wouldn't be here today. She played dead once, but you found out that she was just biding her time until you were weak.

But today is day 5 for you, and the important thing is that you made a promise to us all, and you will keep it!

Glad to be quit with you!

you are right....the bitch waited 7 years then it got me.....not this time though...i now know it really is for life!

Never again, for any reason. Stay quit brother.

yep the small goals i do remember them from the past....and from now right now its just hour to hour....get through this hour then deal with the next.....my old friend wrigley's extra wintergreen is here with me......


biggest problem for me right now is the rage......lets just say this couch will be home for a while...

Come on here to rage at all of us. I was a real asshole in my first week. I was snapping at people left an right. Don;t take out your quit rage on your wife, girlfriend, kids, or close friends. They aren't doing anything wrong. Type out your rage in your May group or in this introduction of yours. We can take it. I would rather have you call me an asshole than your loved ones.

Also, embrace these shitty first days. Later in your quit, remembering how bad this time is will make you want to never go through it again.

done! posted roll

Saw that. Nice first post! You didn't screw it up or anything like many first posters do. Remember, by putting your name on roll your give your word to all of us not to use nicotine in any form for that whole day. Your word is your reputation. Don't let us down. Let us know if you have any questions. You can do this brother.

D2, do you remember what to expect in the first few days of your quit?

I would get some gum, fake chew, and some sunflower seeds for your first week. I remember lacking energy and have some real bad headaches in my first week. I can also tell you what helped me. I set small goals, reached them and then set new ones. For example, I set the goal of making it through day 1, then 2, then 3, then 5, then a week, then 10 days, two weeks, 20 days, and then all of a sudden I was at a month, then two. You have to focus on one day at a time. There are no shortcuts. It takes time.
