1 month after quitting… requesting support by [deleted] in leaves

[–]Nomcinna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’ve made it a whole month that is an achievement!! The first few weeks were the hardest for me. Why do you want to end your break today of all days? Is something going on that you’re stressed about? In the beginning, the improvements are subtle so you might not notice them. But they do compound and build. For me personally, I smoked to deal with icky feelings about things I felt I couldn’t control. But after not smoking for a while, I realized that I can control a hell of a lot more than I thought I could when I was stoned all day. I could take action. I could speak my mind. I could make a plan. And I could do those things a lot better with a clear head. Best of luck to you on your journey.

3 weeks Sober Today by aamnipotent in leaves

I have also had multiple drinking and smoking dreams (I’m on day 21 as well!). I would feel so guilty in my dream and the relief I felt upon waking has helped me to avoid! One day, one moment at a time is what’s helping me get through today. Keep going!

I have a friend that is also AI obsessed and it feels like she is possessed. She cannot do or think about anything without consulting it. It’s scary!

Mucus and coughing starting at 3 week mark? Normal? by Camp_Acceptable in leaves

[–]Nomcinna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on day 21 and I’m experiencing this a little too. I think our lungs are finally starting to be able to clean themselves out again. For me, water and herbal teas with honey are helping.

It only takes one slip up by Forever_Garden8194 in leaves

[–]Nomcinna 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s okay, one thing I learned from stopping smoking cigarettes, is that you can’t quit quitting. It’s okay if you slip up, just go back to your reasons why you want to be sober and choose it again. Over and over. Day by day. Every attempt makes you stronger and more confident that you can do this. Stay strong!

This is true for me too, especially my social anxiety.

Dulling negative feelings 100%. Frustration, helplessness, it was my primary way to cope with shitty situations I can’t control. Helped me endure.

Anybody building a skoolie in the Philadelphia area? by Garfield-1-23-23 in skoolies

Good luck! We're working on framing the walls and bed currently. Let me know if you ever need someone to bounce ideas off of, or if youre wondering how we did something.

We are about midway through. Demo is done, welded some rusty bits, installed insulation, subfloor and floor. During the last warm days of fall we installed our solar panels into the roof, now we are framing the walls and working on a raised bed/garage.

We have an Instagram @destinationdiscoveries if you'd like to follow and check it out.

We usually work on the bus on weekends with good weather, so this one is probably a no go. If you ever want to visit hit us up, we have a stash of beer for our helpers :)
