    Hey everyone,
     
    The site was down, but I didn't quit. Although I must say, it was and still is quite difficult at times.
     
    However, it has now been nearly 17 days since June 6, 2024, when I finally succeeded in quitting. I feel amazing. I mean, I sleep less, I am more confident, I do lots of things, and I believe the addiction is getting weaker day by day. It still requires some struggling and inner discussions from time to time. But convincing myself to go and buy a smoke after 16 days without it is much harder than it was after just one day, so I guess this also plays a role in weakening this demon.
     
    So, yeah, let's keep going, guys!

    Hey, so energy and mood got much better. Feels like I flew through some turbulences of finishing 1 week but now the sky is much brighter currently finishing 9 days and feeling very good. So nothing to say much really, just keep going
     
    Guys, when do you think I can consider this addiction as beaten? 2week, 1year, never?
     
    Thanks.

    Hello, I finished my first clean week. This is an incredible achievement for me.
     
    Energy Level Changes:
     
    First 5 Days: I was full of energy. I could read all the news, go to the gym, run, work, sleep for only 4 hours, and talk all the time.
     
    Day 6: I experienced huge cravings and spent the whole day thinking I might fail. However, I still went to the gym and replaced the craving with some burgers and a good night's sleep.
     
    Day 7: My energy crashed. The weather in Prague was changing every 20 minutes, alternating between rain and sunshine. I ended up sleeping after lunch. I even considered deleting this account to avoid wasting time, but I reconsidered because I feel I might be able to help others in the future. I went to sleep early and woke up today at 8 AM, which is the longest sleep I've had since day 0.
     
    Summary: I am now 7 days, 13 hours, and 27 minutes clean and still going strong. TGIF!

    Hey! I am getting through very difficult period in my job, having season right now, busy asf. Well that does not help very much, but I am steadily reaching 6 clean days in 6 hours from now. Morning run, cold shower is already an automatic routind and seemes to help me. 
     
    Overall, mornings are very powerful, positive and full of energy. I dont sleep too much, but feel very energetic, which is always being felt afternoon where energy going a bit down acravings are quite strong yesterday and today...So far helps me this daily quittrain blog and also that I already shared my success with family and friends and would feel like an idiot if I just go now and smoke again...So...I guess I just stick with it further and finish another day :))))

    I must say, today is very difficult. As yesterday seemed easier. But it would be kind of stupid to fail again, so I dont have much a choice. I am trying to focus on all those positives, that I wake up with energy and motivation, my brain is functioning better. So lets keep going.
     
    Some chocolate and food helped me today to go through. Mood is not the best, but closing 5 days in around 4 hours and that gives me a good prospect.

    Hello there, it is currently 12pm lunch time and very busy day. I was running in the morning, cold shower and donatet blood plasma as I do every 2 weeks. Also it is monday so my mailbox is crazy.
    However, I can happily say that it is now 3 days and 16 hours clean and going for 4 days with confidence
     
    Also, evenings in general are very difficult, Huge headache yesterday before sleep. But mornings are now very positive and easy, sleep is better and I didnt even realize this morning that I used to have any addiction! crazy...because before my first thing I do is vape as soon as I open my eyes.
     
    Thank you al for support, I think this is really going somewhere positive.

    Hello hello hello, it is currently sunday 7:13am time in Prague, Czechia. I am about to go through another 12 hours shift, today I forget my chewing gums home, but I did not take any money with me so I cannot buy any kind of vape or nicotine  So I should be fine today and get through day 3 smoothly, hope so! Yesterday evening my mood was pretty down. Mornings seem to be better with quitting, more optimistic.
     
    About this night, I did have a really deep sleep from 9pm to 3:33am and then wake up full of energy (you call it morning wood in english I think hahah - which should really tell positive things to a men´s health). I am surprised that after last night, this time was a deep rest and also some nice dreams. I noticed that I wake up easily, 3:33 I was full of energy and no red eyes, motivation to go out, see things, to live a life you know. Which kind of dissapears with addiction. I already knew that before but when I go through this recovery I can feel it again. The life´s beauty shines through the nicotine shield slowly but surely! I am happy to enjoy things such as good food, ray of sunshine, aromatic things, good music. These things go to the background with shaded mind that is ill with addiction. So Have a nice sunday all, I am clean now 2 days and 11.5 hours, not going to give up at least today no  As I gave my promise and thank you for all the support, may the power be with you all.

    Well good morning to you all. I did manage my first real craving yesterday after gym and sauna. I did not want to sleep, I think I slept like 3-4 hours only and my mind is racing but..I feel more energy than if I slept 8-9 hours. So at this moment we have 8:30am in Czechia, I am in work today since 7am and clean from nicotine currently 1.5 day to be precise it is 36.5 hours.
     
    Today I work 12 hours, have some things to do and also watching finals of WTA French open, something to look forward to and getting slowly through my day 2. Also I feel so much inner power and agression (might be testosterone), very very good feeling, confidence, this is the way to go. Just need to be ready for some cravings today, have my chewing gums and water, so lets do it.

    Hello, today is my first whole clean day ahead. I am now 13 hours clean and finished my morning running with cold shower, getting into work and got my sugarfree gums ready to get through this day. Even getting through 1 day for me is something almost unachievable before, I almost never did the whole 24 hours. So if you see me here after that, I guess we are on a good way and I already gave my promise today...so I think I will make it.
     
    Anyway, will keep it active and share my thoughts later. Stay strong

    Alright, I have failed maybe thousand times with nicotine, it is torturing me for already 12 years, since I started in my 18. It is now time to use the forum and power of network to quit once for all. So today 8pm I put nicotine away and going to post my thoughts, struggles and progress on the way. Welcome  I hope this might one day help to someone, but first I need to help myself. Nicotine cost me not only health, tons of money and relationships, but also caused very bad situations along the way. So the ony way is to go clean, day by day.
