Aw man.

Love on your friends and family today quitters. Life is precious.
Life is just too short, my prayers go out to all of his loved ones, today my thoughts will be with you.

For those of you not aware, we in July 2013 knew him as WarE2013.
Forever quit.

Prayers to all.
Way to young.  Prayers for family.
With a daughter on the way....wow, just wow

KTC family... This brother committed suicide.

That... Is never the answer. There is help. For everything.

Asking for help costs nothing. Don't let it get to this point.
My thoughts are with his families; the one in Little Rock and the one in July 2013. There are some damn good people in the July group - some of my best contacts are in that group. I know you guys must be taking this hard, and I wish you peace.

Godspeed WarE.
OMG.  We can never truly know another person's struggles.  

Thoughts and prayers for this family.

Day 99-  Well some people on here dont like me cuz i dont count days.  Well, i just did what works for me and that was posting roll everyday as +1.  It made me focus on today and not worry about long term goals.  I couldn't bare to think of being without nicotine for a 100 days.  But staying in the trenches and focusing on one day at a time, kept me sane through the fog.  I will write a HOF speech in due time.  I gotta put some thought into that.  One thing i will say, if your early on in your quit, log into the chat room every night.  That got me through the first 30 days.  And i dont know if anything else would have.  Listening to other quitters was a source of energy.  It will feed you.  SO, to the newbie, man up and face it one day at a time, to the old timer that helped me, thank you.
Congrats war.   Great accomplishment!!  Keep adding them +1.   Proud of you bro.

Day 40 something.  I know i quit April 3 but in all honesty i dont know what day im on.  I have been busy.  I have really been trying not to focus on the number so much, and just keep doing the same thing everyday.  Sometimes I go hours and dont think about nicotine.  Now, if i could just break this addiction i have to the fake herbal shit, i would be saving some money.  I mean, really, 3 cans of fake shit everyday.  Thats outrageous.  But its helping me stay quit.  So whatever.  I will work on that at day 100.  later

WarE
Congrats WarE... I'm with ya on that herbal stuff, except i'm only a can a day on that.

July quitters!
Ware, this place wouldn't be the same without you.  Hang in there.  My husband quit at the same time as I did and does a can or more of herbal a day at Day 136.  I rarely need it.  We are all different and whatever keeps you quit on nicotine is perfect for you.  It gets better, so hang in there.  I love your kick ass attitude.  Use it on the nic bitch.

Congrats on 40 something days. 40+ days is a great accomplishment. as far as the fake stuff goes, use it as much as you have to in order to keep dip outta your face. I used the fake for about 25-30 days and when I realized I didn't get anything out of it I just quit it. My mind knew that it wasn't the real thing. In time your's will as well and you will be able to put it down with no issues at all. If you need anything feel free to pm me. I will quit with you any day.

Great to hear from you war.   I put the fake away in the 40s also.   It was real easy.  I started chewing gum and toothpicks.  Just stay quit brother...  Glad to be quit with u.

Well day 30 was hard.  I had several craves throughout the day.  Fought them off.  I am taking a 5 hour road trip tomorrow, its gonna be hard.  Gonna do it like last time, lots of drink and gum and rest stops.  Anyway, glad i hit 30, i am approaching the longest period without nicotine that I have ever had since 1996.  I went 53 days once about a year ago.  This time gotta be different.  Gotta be.
Congrats on the 30.  A month is huge.  Don't worry about the longest period, just focus on today. Tackle tomorrow, tomorrow.  This time is different because you are a man of your word.  Make your promise, keep your promise, repeat first thing in the morning.  When your mind accepts the fact that caving is not an option, it gets much easier.
War, its going to be different,,,  you know why??  Because your going to continue to post roll everyday and keep your word.   I had a little battle around 30 war,,  nothing to it though.  Keep doing what your doing.  There is no going back,  day 30, 40, 50, whatever the effin number.

I've just now started really getting the number thing I think.  I'm on 76,, WHAT EVER!!
What matters is  Me and you posted roll today.  NO NIC FOR ME AND YOU TODAY,,,,  THAT'S WHAT THE HELL MATTERS.  Glad to be quit with you.

Just drives my point,  I had to edit the post because I'm on day 78, WHATEVER!!!
We all walk the same tight rope every morning.

Some of us just have a little further to fall.

Not only can you do this, but you are doing this.  Don't look ahead and concentrate on today.

don't worry about getting to day 54 till 53 is over man, focus on day 31 now. That was something I had a hard time with. I'm not saying that you shouldn't know this is "the" quit, I'm just saying worry about today before you get too far ahead of yourself. Damn nice job on 30 days, keep up the good work!

Day 21-3 Weeks.

Wow, day 5 was still the worse so far.  The last 4 or 5 days have not been that bad.  I have had the occasional crave, but it usually passes in a few minutes.  Still using that smokey mountain stuff like its going out of style (3 cans a day), but whatever it takes right?  I used 5 cans a day the first week. 

Everything is tolerable right now.  I am grateful that it is going better now.   However, i am very cautious because i have made it this far before (not on this site) and gone back.  Gotta burn the boat this time. 

Keep on keeping on.
Glad to have you in the July group - you stepped up with that worksheet for our group (at least manning it day to day - i'm pretty sure) and for that I am grateful and i'm sure the others are too they are just still lost in their fog - so THANK YOU from all of us.

I'm only a day behind you I think - day 12 was my worst.  I too use smokey mountain and wellbutrin (not sure how well it works but i'm not willing to stop it to see).  Sometimes it feels like i'm on auto-pilot right now almost like it's only the momentum thats keeping me going at times.

I'll keep you going if you keep me going.  See you tomorrow morning at roll call!

Thanks again!

I hit double digits today (10 Days).  Drove 5 hours in a car by myself, hit two massive traffic jams, sat in traffic for hours and almost lost my mind.  I used the hell outta that fake shit.  It was hard but I got through it.  Now Its 1:30 am and all the "chatters" have turned in for the night.  So I decided to post this, so I could come back to it someday and remember.  Remember the SUCK.  Days 1-3 were fucking miserable.  4 wasnt that bad.  5 was the worst day I have had yet.  6,7,8,9 were bad but not unbearable.  10 was a fucking monster too.  Many ups and many downs so far.  Mostly downs, but a few spots where I found i wasnt craving or thinking about dip.  I'm a repeat stopper.  I stopped once for a year back in 1995, 30 days in 2012 and 53 days in 2012.  I need this time to be different.  It feels different.  I feel better knowing I got some people i can talk to.  I dont feel like i am going at this alone.  I think if i would have had this site on my 53 day excurstion i would still be quit, but fuck it, cant dwell on that shit.  Gotta move on.  I am quit today.  10 Days.  Thats the 4th longest amount of time I have been without a dip in over 25 years.  Nothing to write home about just yet, but I feel it growing, my quit.  I feel it getting stronger.
Way to go my man. The first weekend that came up when I quit I drove 4 hours each way to see my girl at her place. It was hell. I went through like 1/2 the tin of Smokey Mountain each way. 10 days quit is great. It's farther than a lot of people ever get and its something that you should be very proud of so yes its something to write home about. But just know that ultimately the day count is insignificant. All we've got is today. Yesterday is in the past and tomorrow never comes. We are all a split second from a shitty decision and posting another day one.

That's great you've been having good day. I think I only had like one or two total in my first month. But I'm glad I stuck with it as today is leaps and bounds better than day 1 or 70 or even yesterday. Use those stops as experience. And as you get to the day that you lost it originally be wary and even more vigilant in your quit. If staying on chat longer or texting your quit brothers/sisters more is required than do it.

Feel free to PM should you ever need anything. I'd be more than glad to help.

Exactly my man, one day at a time. I was also a repeat stopper, kept a quit strong for a month or 2 and then the drive to quit would slowly fade and I would find a reason why I could have just one dip.

Use this intro thread as a place to keep your thoughts and something to look back on when you are having a difficult day dealing with the craves. Put all that pain and anger into some posts here and you will be able to see exactly what you were going through and why it is never worth it to cave and have to go through all this stuff again.
Ware, Fuck the past. 'Finger'    Today is real.  'boob'   You keep quitting TODAY and your daze will stack up before you know it.  shocker
Take it from me. It gets alot better, I promise. This is my first and last quit after 30 yrs. 24/7 1-2 cans per day. If I can do this, 'Crazy'   then I know that YOU CAN too!!  'bang head'
Quit on!!
 Ware  your brain is rewiring...  Your almost through it.  Things will be changing for the better in no time.  You hang in there and i will hang in there with you.  I quit with you today....

Congrats. I hit a pretty hard wall on days 9 and 10 myself. This place is awesome. Having people to talk to or just vent to really helps. You will get great support here but remember to also give support as someone had pointed out to me. Post roll and make that promise to yourself everyday that you will stay quit. Don't just come back to this thread someday, but more often. I've found it helps me to come back to my intro thread every day and usually post something. Stay strong and STAY QUIT!!!

"I am quit today." That's all that matters. That's what you didn't appreciate when you hit the pause button. Post roll for today. Welcome.

On a completely separate note - I remember getting pissed when vets chimed in on the initial stages of my quit. What do they know about where I am today? I'd rather relate to quitters in the fire.

Alright, ummm…all those past attempts only strengthened you for this - your final quit. You will never chew tobacco again.

Hey fellow newbies, come hang out in the chat room.  It  really does help to talk with folks.  I know there are several July folks who are quitters, so come on.  I want to Hear how fucking miserable you are and I will tell you how miserable I am and then we can continue to quit together.   'bang head'
War,

Make sure you get plenty of phone numbers from your group.  While everyone can't make it to the chat room, most can play phone tag with text messages.  From one July (2012) quitter to another, let me know if you want another number.

I'm changing my name to success5002 after 100 days.
Here's a better idea and NDY was leading to it.

We do not try, we do not attempt, we just do.

So go ahead, change that name now to Success and you can keep putting up +1 one day at a time. That is all we ask, hell that is all I do.

This time will be different if you fully commit to this.  Anybody can do anything if they FULLY commit to it.  This is also not an attempt.  This is the real deal.  Post roll everyday and honor your word and I guarantee that this time will be different.

Read all of this : http://forum.killthecan.org/index.php?showforum=13 (http://forum.killthecan.org/index.php?showforum=13)

With particular attention paid to http://forum.killthecan.org/index.php?showtopic=50 (http://forum.killthecan.org/index.php?showtopic=50) and http://forum.killthecan.org/index.php?showtopic=120 (http://forum.killthecan.org/index.php?showtopic=120).

I would also suggest watching this video about how to post roll:
http://www.killthecan.org/roll/ (http://www.killthecan.org/roll/)

Looks like you are in July 2013: http://forum.killthecan.org/index.php?showtopic=7913 (http://forum.killthecan.org/index.php?showtopic=7913)
Go post Day 1 if you haven't already:

Remember, POST ROLL EVERYDAY.
