6.5 days no vape. My other half is being an asshole today. She says I’m an asshole and being needling, I say she’s an asshole and being needling. We haven’t spoken for two hours and watched a football match in complete silence. Now I’ve gone to bed. At 4.30pm.

She asked me how long am I going to use these nicotine gums for. This was after another discussion that went south, so didn’t sit well and seemed like a criticism or goading. I didn’t take too well to the question and now we are in this predicament. I won’t go into what was said to me, but honestly, I really feel like smoking.

I have headache and backache and now I’m truly miserable :confounded:

Don’t do it. Someone else can’t ruin your day anymore. You’ve got to choose that for yourself. I vote bedtime at 4:30 for you.
Hang tough.

As you know of course, smoking or vaping now would just give you a reason to -and make you- feel even more shitty. Instead you’re going to show yourself you’re better than that and feel good about it. At least something going right today. Thanks for sharing. That’s how it’s done. :people_hugging: :heart: :people_hugging:

Well, I’ve been apologised to. And finally I got to speak without being cut down. I’m finding this one so hard to do and everything feels stressful. I’ll live.

It’s so hard. I have a very active brain. Nothing slows it down much. My other half is running me an epsom salt bath now for my back.

I cried as well. I don’t do crying.

I’m sorry friend. That is a lot to be dealing with and I know how badly you want to just smoke / vape to feel some relief. It won’t help. You are coming up to the 1 week milestone…this is impressive. Go to bed at 4:30… Hell I slept so much in my early days. Let your mind and body rest. :pray:t4::hugs:

Oh just sae the update. Glad you two are talking it out. Hope that bath helps

It’s fine, I was half joking. I appreciate someone who challenges me normally.

I like me a hard headed woman; passive and walk overs do nothing for me. But fuck, I think I have a very opinionated and anti people pleasing one. She’s super kind and lovely, just do not cross her. I guess it helps her eloquence that she’s in the public speaking sphere and has that lovely received pronunciation redolent of home counties and the Queen and every thing quintessential English. I’m the bit of gruff rough… Grumpy and introverted and I tend to implode or explode.

I don’t know, sounds familiar…

Since I quit all substances I do. Quite a lot. You should try, it’s quite liberating :smiling_face_with_tear: :face_holding_back_tears:
