Day 2. No nicotine.
So after that update yesterday… I took a nap.
Woke up tired. Like I could actually go right back to sleep. But my brain still remembered that waking up is usually when we grab a pouch.
We’re not doing that anymore bro. Remember?
Apparently we need reminders 😂
The weirdest part has been trying to finish a thought and actually do something with it.
I’ll make a decision. Know what I wanna do. Then just sit there.
What am I waiting for? I already decided.
And somehow I’ve moved onto something else before doing the first thing.
Perfect example. I go on Kraken. I want another million solana:dog1viwbb2vWDpER5FrJ4YFG6gq6XuyFohUe9TXN65u .
Okay. Buy now or wait a little?
Then somehow…
Have you heard about the bird?
What bird?
Babababoubababa
Babboubababa
Well don’t you know about the bird
Well every body knows that the bird is a WORD.😭
Three hours later. OH FUCK.
$DOG.
Check the price. Damn it’s higher now. Let’s wait.
Check again. Okay yea lemme get it.
Still haven’t bought it.
What if it dumps after I buy? What if it keeps going up while I’m sitting here?
Keep the cash. You need emergency savings. You’ve got enough
$DOG already.
But I want more.
Well
@joopooranski IS LOADING his bag
he’ smart dude he know what’s coming.
AHHHH! Bro shut the fuck up.
Who am I even arguing with? ME 😂
Wait wait what’s going on..
And that’s a real decision involving real money, so the “just buy it” voice doesn’t get to win because it’s the loudest. But that’s what it sounds like in here right now.
Anyways. I gotta eat.
See what I mean?
I’m not saying quitting caused every wandering thought. But I’m noticing how much harder it feels to go from “I’m gonna do this” to actually doing it.
Kept catching myself chewing the inside of my cheek too. Just sitting there quiet, chomping away.
Am I stressed? Tired? Thinking? I don’t even know. The thoughts aren’t finished.
There were good stretches yesterday though.
Had a long phone call with someone I love. About 40 minutes. Really enjoyed that. Was chewing regular gum, and afterward I realized I wasn’t feeling a craving right then.
Then I sorted seeds for the garden. Figuring out what goes where, what I can plant together. That helped with my stress a little.
Sat down watching a guy explain no-dig gardening and actually felt peaceful.
That surprised me.
Just listening to this man talk about dirt and garden beds. Nothing in my mouth. For a bit I wasn’t negotiating with myself about anything.
Then later… irritable as fuck.
Nobody even had to do anything. I could look at something that hadn’t been done around the house and get annoyed.
So I’m speaking less. Giving myself some space. I can feel how short my patience is, and sometimes I just need to leave a thought in my head instead of giving it a microphone.
Now it’s morning. Slept like shit.
I wanna go for a run. I WANT to. But I feel weak as hell. Appetite’s gone too.
Couldn’t have picked better timing 😂 just getting over being sick and decided alright, let’s quit nicotine.
How much is quitting? How much is recovering? How much is the sleep?
Idk man. It’s all happening together.
And I hadn’t eaten or had water yet either. So before I start demanding a whole workout from myself, let me handle the basics.
I really wanna see how I feel once I’m past this part. Back doing my regular stuff without expecting that little pouch to come with every activity.
Still no nicotine.
Not feeling particularly unstoppable right now lol. But still doing it.
And you guys checking on me this morning while making memes out of my palm and that little maxi pad 😭😂
Some of you are supporting me and bullying me in the same sentence. I respect the efficiency.
Seriously though. You got me laughing on a rough morning. Appreciate you.
Day 2. Still going. 🐕
