Great choice. Read this http://www.killthecan.org/facts/jennykern.asp (http://www.killthecan.org/facts/jennykern.asp)

You can't change the past, but you can change your future one day at a time. Embrace the suck...it is the feeling of recovery. The suck is a privilege all quitters get the opportunity to endure. It comes once. Laugh at it...love it...embrace it.

When the Nic Bitch finally takes an addict out, there is no warning or explanation. Just one day you go to the doctor and get life-changing news. What is harder to deal with...a crave or disfiguring surgery and a slow death that tortures those who love you every bit as much as you?

You're right...you need to do this. The good news is that you can do this!!! Welcome brother.

You can stay quit today!
This is exactly what you need to do when the crave comes...get on this site, read stuff, post what you are going through and whatever else you have to do to keep away from the cancer can.

It will get better, I can promise you that, but all we need to focus on is today and keeping our promise to stay quit. If you get pissed, come on here and let it out...we all know exactly what it's like.

PM me if you need anything, I am glad to be quit with you today!

yep, those triggers are everywhere. I went online to get some training on a banjo tune. The guy teaching it, stops grabs a can and spits. I had to turn it off and do something else. I wasn't looking for it, wasn't even thinking about it but Nic just had to make a presence.....

Glad that I am quit. I just make sure everyday that no matter what, I stay quit for the day and no matter how inviting, the answer will be, "Not for Me".

Day one was a bitch this way harder than I ever thought it would be didn't sleep at all last night had very weird dreams. Woke up this morning feeling better don't have as bad a headache and body seems to be releasing the poison. I can't believe I was so stupid to put this crap into my body. I wasn't a addict I was a junky. This shit should be outlawed I wish I would have never started a feel terrible for all the cousin in my family who followed my path because I was the oldest and they all looked up to me and almost everyone of them chew what a roll model I was.

Blaze a new path of quit, I started my own, now my wife just posted 93, my dip buddy at work is 5 weeks clean.

That fog shit will pass, we all went thru it a couple things that will help is 1- exercise 2- tons of water 3- sex (with your wife/girlfriend, yourself or your horse)

You got this, one day at a time, post roll everyday, give your word you won't use the nicbitch that day. If you need anything, pm me or jump on quit chat

Glad to be quit with you,
Bruce317

It is all downhill from here. If you can do Day 1, you can do Day 2, Day 100 and Day 1000, because they are infinitely easier. However, you only need to worry about Day 2.

You are a beast. Most dippers don't have the balls to fight through the first 24 hours. I didn't believe I EVEN COULD for 21 years. You've shown us, and more importantly, yourself, that you can do this. We are here with you.

I quit with your bad ass today. PM me if you need a number or anything.
