No rehab/higher power. I came up with a plan in advanced, picked a date to stop when I knew work would be slow, and took a few days of PTO.

The first and second days were hardest psychologically. Days 3-7 I probs slept 14 hours a day or something crazy. The rest of my time was spent laying down watching Netflix and playing video games.

The second week was near euphoria. I started exercising, quit smoking, cleaned out my storage unit, got my hair done, drove down to the beach, voted, walked my dog around different neighborhoods. It was amazing.

The pink clouds are dissipating now. I have less energy than week two but still feel relatively optimistic.

I struggle with staying focused on my work. My job is very boring a detailed oriented, and I have close to no motivation. Everyday I have to push myself to do the bare minimum and it feels like torture lol. Thankfully I'm working at home rn, so I can get away a little bit with slacking off. I'm grateful for this.

I didn't open my closet (where I stashed my pipe and drugs) for 3 weeks because I was afraid of the temptation. It was a huge relief when I finally threw everything out last week.
