Title: fatlip08 Intro.
Post by: Fatlip08 on December 07, 2015, 06:37:00 PM
Been dipping for fuckin ever...

Started around age 11. Have been a slave to the shit for as long as I can remember.

Been lurking on this site for a few months and kinda following along with how things work.
Today I am highly motivated but very apprehensive about the rest of the week.

I get that your apprehensive about quiting but there really is never going to be a better time to quit then right now. There's never going to be a day that will make it easier or more convenient. Just take the plunge! Easier said than done i know but you need to do this for you. So YOU get it in your head that your ready to be free and let's do this together, man. You quit one day at a time. Every day will be easier then the day before.

Flush that tin and ride the apprehension to freedom.  It will suck then fog whenever you get around to it... the sooner you start the sooner life is better. You know the drill, go to March 2016 say hi, post roll. Repeat in the morning. Drink lots of water, exercise, read even more of this site... and come here to bitch about your apprehension while quit!

Your motivated, time for lurking is past, time to quit is now.

------ 'boob' nice roll post! Glad to quit with you!

Think I fuck ed the roll up but from what I have read it looks like most of us newbies do.

First now that your quit don't worry about the week, we quit one day at a time. (Minute by minute of you have to.). As far as reading; words of wisdom. HOF speeches. Pick out some intros and read them from start to finish (the longer the better). Have you checked out chat? Just remember all of us no matter how long we've been quit were where you are at one time.

Hey great work brother, the only way to mess up roll is to not be on it!

Everyone is motivated differently but here are some hard ones:

So I am getting my ass kicked.

I got fake snuff, gum, seeds, an a few fireballs..
I'm starting to settle into just how much this is gonna suck.

I suppose it will be good motivation to stay away from nicotine..

I won't lie, when I did "the suck" it was awful. I posted a day 94 today - that is almost 14 weeks. My mouth still doesn't feel right. This whole experience has taught me that chewing really screwed me up.

The good news is that things will get better when you stick with it. B)B

Buck up buttercup. You've ravished your body and mind with one of the most addictive substances you can ingest for far too long. If the first few days didn't suck it'd be way too easy to go back. Remember how badly this sucks so you never want to go through it again. Don't dwell on how badly it sucks though. Dwell on the freedom you gain each time you win the battle. Now take the fight to nicotine instead of letting nicotine taking the fight to you.

Thought I would take a minute to wrap up my first day without nic.

Lots of ups and downs, doubt, and some fear.
This forum and site is too cool, I would never have been able to make it without you fucks on here keeping me straight.

I worked last night and will again tonite. I will sign roll when I wake up to try to keep my morning with a new commitment to my quit group.

Hope I can sleep today.

sleep and pooping will return I promise. if you haven't hit the non pooping stage, you will.

I'm here along with everyone else to support you through this.

I hit day 122 today. Didn't think I would make it past day 1. I couldn't have without this site and the determination to do so.

Man, there are DAYS I couldn't tell you if I pissed, shit, ate, or fucked. Those days of fog are your body resetting the neuropathways. Minute to minute, hour to hour, day to day. You can do this...fight like your full of road rage!!

Keep going. Don't you give up. You are going to be out of sorts for a bit.
Do whatever you have to do. You got this.

This is sage. The fog will fuck you up in ways that you never imagined. I went through a lot of anxiety and depression, had difficulty forming coherent thoughts, and a general feeling of dizziness/imbalance. I have had a run of pretty good days lately, but at 46 days I'm still early into my quit and I fully expect some of that to return and hit me again. That's just what I get for letting myself be an addict for my whole adult life.

Just know that whatever you start feeling as time goes on is all part of the process, and if you soldier on through it, you will come out clean on the other side. Nicotine withdrawal can last quite some time and feel like it's going to kill you, but I promise it won't. Cancer, however, will. Keep strong in your quit and keep coming back here as you need reassurance.

The first few days are awful - stick with it and you will get past these cravings. Do whatever you can to keep that crap out of your mouth.

I quit with you today!

You can take EVERYTHING nicotine has to throw at you. You are stronger than a poisonous weed in a can. Nicotine withdrawal never killed anybody. It sucks at first, but you let nicotine rape your mind for years. It doesn't heal overnight. Turn the tables before you start slipping down that slope. Get some digits. Start communicating with your March bros.

Don't let nicotine win. It isn't worth it.

Lots of help and support here fatlip. Like King said, get active in your group. Post this stuff in there. It helps to run this stuff through with your brothers and discuss it, ad nauseum if needed!. Support from the vets is awesome. Support coupled with ACCOUNTABILITY from your March brothers is the "money shot".

Proud to be quit with you. It will get better hang in there!
