Hey there - welcome and congrats on your 93 days. OMG the brainfog was the worst! It was like my entire IQ dribbled out the bottom of my shoes for a while. And my satisfaction/gratification receptors were were totally scorched after my own 45-year smoking career… everything felt flat. But have faith and carry on - things settle down after a while.

Aren’t you tired of the failure-to-quit cycle? You can be free once and for all! Like @Cbdave said, cravings are not commands… just loud commercials for stuff we’re not buying any more. Swat em away and move forward!

Hi @Kris. It’s wonderful to hear from you again - welcome back! I was just thinking about you the other day (re-reading some old posts) and wondering how you are doing. You were welcoming and supportive of me when I joined this group as a new quitter. I’m so sorry that you are struggling. I’m 4.5 years in, and it can be rugged sometimes for me, too. The “stinkin thinkin” voices inside our heads can get awfully loud. So good on you for channeling some group support, to get some perspectives. Your quit is incredibly precious… and freakin HARD EARNED!! Fight for it. Find your fierce. Protect it like you would protect a beloved animal, or a 5-year old child who needed your help. Withdrawal was wretched. Don’t put yourself through it again. Stay strong, stay busy, stay connected. You can do this!

How are things going for you @shy?

When you’re ready we’ll be here @Pilgrim. Saving you a seat on the quitting train!
