Remember kids: "baaaaa" means "no".

Please note that "Honey, would you take the trash out please? Thank you." means "I want you to do dirty shit to me later so we need to decide on a safe word now."

It's all in the interpretation.

"CLOSE THE DOOR. In my opinion, it?s the single most important step in your final quit. There is one moment, THE moment, when you finally let go and surrender to the quit. After that moment, no temptation will be great enough, no lie persuasive enough to make you commit suicide by using tobacco."

Find a nice isolated turnoff on a country road. Roll up the windows. Turn the radio up on some headbanger music, and rip a vocalchord shouting at that nic-daemon to leave you alone, Hanko.

It's completely senseless, but it makes me smile afterward - and you're at what, Day 6. 7 or so? Silliness feels pretty good around that time.

In fact, let me be frank, you're struggling partly because some of your feelings are coming back that nic made you forget about. It's like you've been sitting on your hand, and now it tingles like crazy - but only after the blood starts returning.

Your feelings are more intense, jumbled up. You might just THINK you want a chew. What you really want might be ... well, you're married ... you're no longer sucking saltpeter ... certain interests start to re-awaken. Redirect.
I think what my fellow quit-whore is saying is to take that lovely woman by the hand, lay her down by the fire, and hit that LIKE A CAVEMAN. A good romp with the old lady will do wonders for your quit. Seriously.

Be careful of the situtions you put yourself in early in your quit. The C stores are a bad idea. Pay at the pump, get your drinks at the grocery store. Trust me there will be days in your future when you can walk throught the checkout lines and just shake your head in disgust, For me that was somewhere around day 250ish. Until then stay away from temptation, build your toolbox.

STAY QUIT

Good ninereasons, keep it up! Right now I'm fighting urges right and left, literally! Every party store, gas station, and smoke shop I pass is like a magnet pulling me in.
Suck it up Hanko. Pay at the pump and don't go into those other stores. It will soon start to get better. Last week, when I was around the 15 day mark I was in the PX in Balad and the checkout was ringed in Nicotine. I didn't even pay attention to it, and didn't even realize it was there until after I had already left.

Come on Hanko, let's do this together! Turn that magnet around and it will repel from those gas stations!
My quit told me if I ever leave, it will kill me.

Nicotine owned me for 24 years. I resumed control on Feb. 1, 2011.

Good advice fellas... Hell yeah!!! 73 hours grizz free! So in a hour I should'nt have any more cravings, I can't wait! I wish... But I am doing much better. I feel more like a quiter with each hour of the day.

Nice job hanko,

your through the fire, bring on the head games. You should feel like a quitter because you ARE A QUITTER. The hardest part is deciding to quit, all you gotta do now is stay that way. Stick to your guns, you got this.

I do feel better! Day 2 coming to a end, cannot say I dont want a chew. I believe its you guys that gave the push I needed to get this far. Today I did kick some nic ass! thats for sure.
attaboy Hank!

The good thing about having the desire there is that it can't sneak up on you--you're less likely to stumble and fall while walking slowly and paying full attention to your footing. Just endure the first few days man, you're winning
