Hi, I just quit

[TheMissingPeace]

I'm on my Day 5 Quit and I have not had any dreams at all. I can't wait to have them though because that will mean that I am getting some good sleep. Today I posted Roll Call and Today I am Quit. Peace

DAY 337: Wait What?

I had the most vivid dip dream last night. I'm not sure if I was dipping all the way through because I only realized it shortly before I woke up. I was so real i could taste that nasty shit. I had a big fat lower-lipper and I was terrified I had just caved. No idea how it got there. I felt so damn guilty like I had just let down the planet. Abe Vigoda was chasing me down an alley screaming "CAVER! CAVER!". That old bastard could move.


Ok, I made that last part up about Abe Vigoda, but what the fuck is this? It's been nearly a year.

Its been over 3 years for me and I still have them....just not as vivid anymore. Just kind of annoying.

Day 277

To all new quitters: You've made the right choice.

Now listen up.: Your brain is going to be lying it's ass off to you. The next few days will seem like the worst you've ever had. Headaches, mouthaches, cravings, nicotine rages, sore throats, and the dreaded munchies...and thats just the first few days, but here's the tits: It only takes a few days for all that worthless shit people call nicotine to be completely out of your system. How long it stays out will be completely up to you. Not your kids, your wife, or your dead friends; in the end it's just you. Now after those few days, you will feel better, and I think we can all promise you that. Consider though, that throughout those few days and for several more after, you will question your resolve, your brian will make up excuses for you to cave, and even your asshole friends will taunt you "Aww come on you pussy!" Chose to ignore them or fight them. Either way, if your resolve is weak and your quit is half-assed, you will continue to be nicotine's cum-dumpster. No lie.

I've been quit for about 277 days, but I'm not naive enough to believe I'm bullet proof. Oh don't get me wrong; I hate tobacco, tobacco related products, and the shit-sucking parasites who manufacture them. FUCKING...HATE THEM. That said, they didn't stop by my house when I was younger and shove a plug in my mouth. Hell, the whole time I was dipping I knew it was gonna kill me. That was my dumbass decision, as was all of ours in this community. No, each one of us will have that bitch riding along in the back of our minds for the rest of our lives and all it takes for that slut to jump up in the front seat is a moment of weakness. I have found that over time the bitch gets further and further in the back of the bus, but the bitch is still there. Her lies are a pathetic whisper at this point, but I do hear them from time to time. Regardless of what that whore says, my quit is stronger.

Day 69

I just drove 7.5 hours from Decatur Alabama to Saint Louis Missouri and I noticed 2 things.

OK, usually when I take this trip, by the time I reach Nashville, I'm yawning. Dosen't matter what time of day I leave, I hit that town and I get all kinds of drowsy, so before each trip, I buy a bottle of thet 5-hour energy drink and chug it when I hit Hwy 24W.

Not this time. I make it to Nashville, not tired. What the shit? Ok, I hold of on the bottle, maybe I get drowsy later. NOPE. 7 hours into the drive I hit East Saint Louis and I'm wide awake, not caffine other that a bottle of lipton sweet tea I picked up in Cadiz.

So I ask my quit bros; did nicotime have such a stranglehold on my life that it even regulated my circadian rhythm?

Day 45

I haven't had a bad crave since about day 10, but this past week so far has been non-stop. I know why though; I'm an addict.
My brain is telling me I want that shit. It's a feeling like happiness, saddness, or anger, but much more primal.
Armed with this knowledge, I look the crave straight in the face and say "Fuck you.".

I wrote the following in my intro page right about my Day 45. Your post made me think sharing it could somehow be helpful or, at least, insightful:

"It's a very odd situation: I feel quite proud of myself and what I've accomplished thus far, but I am also deeply entrenched in a colossal quit funk. (Many of us discussed this in another thread last week.) I am in this unique, microcosmic manic-depressive state. It's a millisecond-to-millisecond experience. At one instant, I feel intoxicating bliss. The next moment, my guts feels twisted, and I want to either write a really sad, shitty poem or kill someone with my bare hands."

Thats about right, cunt. Thankfully, my wife and son are out of town until Friday so I can avoid being an asshole directly to them.
I hope to kick through this by then.

I had the crave monster fuck me over and over again in the ass around Day 45. But there was an excuse, my parents were visiting. I kept strong though, my quit makes me stronger so I can beat down the fucking crave!!

Fuck the fog. I'm so quit, my cock hurts.

Are you sure that's not due to spending time with Greg40?

I'm not judging - it's not my thing, but to each is own. Way to take the advise of this site and do "whatever it takes" to get thru the rough patches w/o nic.

You, sir, are serious in your quit, and going to these lengths to remain so proves it.

...he told me he loved me.

Dude you are a legend - Your post posts rock. Stay quit.

Day 37

I think I just hit that fog everybody's been talking about. I feel a little light-headed, I don't remember if I closed the garage door, and I don't feel like doing shit today.

A couple of old friends happend by: Lactose-intolerance and severe heart-burn. Naturally, like all old friends, they didn't call first, they drank all my beer and Rolaids, and left tracks in my underwear. Fuckers.

As the way of the beer and rolaids, the funk shall pass too. You will experience more. Some a day some more but one thing about all of them - they do not last. Keep moving forward. This is your true chance to change your life.

[Greg5280]

Hang in there, it will pass. I am having a bit of a funk today myself. Stay close to the site, use your tools and reach out if you need to.

STAY QUIT
