Hey Substation,
As Romeo said, You’ve already gotten some great advice here. I jumped at 8mgs 27 days ago, and like others, tapering could never have been a realistic option for ME.
But what really caught my attention here was the fact that I cannot stand coffee anymore either. I drank that stuff from the time I woke, right up until about 3 or 4 in the afternoon, right along with smoking up to two packs a day.
Now I can’t drink coffee, at all. One pack of smokes is lasting me 3 days and I have this 24 hour a day overwhelming urge to eat steak. I’ve always been more of a fish, chicken, salad kinda guy, but now I guess my body wants STEAK and I’m already thinking about my next meal before I’m finished with what I’m eating right now.
Stay tough Substation! I’m a big ole’ sissy and made it through with the help of all these guys here, Romeo, Brian etc. There were many, many days during the first 10-14 that I’d have to excuse myself from my office or my sofa to go find someplace to hide and cry like a baby for 10-15 minutes, collect myself, and carry on.
I’m approaching the 30 day mark now and even got a full night’s sleep last night for the first time without any help.
I’ll be here rootin’ for ya too!

P.S. a couple days ago I walked through my kitchen and my partner was making himself a glass of Tang, I caught a whif of it and thought I was going to hurl right there on the spot.
