Title: I quit you
Post by: Kris MB on November 18, 2016, 11:42:00 PM
I need you like water
Like breath, like rain
I need you like mercy
From heaven's gate
There's a freedom in your arms
That carries me through
I need youuuuuu

This is what my heart is saying to Copenhagen long cut wintergreen right this very moment. For 11 years I've always had it in my cheek to keep me calm and sedated. I started dipping to quit smoking, and man was it an easy transition. And then I realized that dip was about as powerful as a crack cocaine addiction. Nothing could get between me and my vice.. my happiness, my anchor. Yea maybe it's unattractive, maybe it's changed the way my face looks or the way I smile. But I love it. But today is the day I tell Copenhagen something I've been keeping from her for awhile now.. it's over. We can't be together anymore. It's not you baby I promise it's not. You've always been there for me. I just think we're headed down different paths. You see I'm only 30, but I feel 60.. I just want to be healthy you know. This is my body we're talking about Copenhagen don't be so selfish. I'm sure in a few months you will have forgotten about me anyway. Don't try to act like that's not true. I will miss the good times we had.. the places we've gone together.. the long road trips, the late nights.. I'll never forget those times.. but anyway Copenhagen. This is taking a little longer than I had planned.. and I don't wanna make it anymore painful than it needs to be for either of us, so... goodbye sweetheart, goodbye.. forever....

Dip is like heroin or crack cocaine. Unfortunately it is legal in every state. :P

You can do this! Keep posting roll every morning and keep your promise. Connect with other quitters here to build a web of accountability.

Its an Addicts poem.....
Copenhagen... Has a plan and poem for you.

Wait lets go slow.
Dont trust those you dont know.
Im Your happiness, your anchor.
I'm also a lie..... And I hope You die.

Be careful following your heart...
Find and Follow the Truth.
Plenty here in these halls.

The HEART is deceitful above all things
and beyond cure.
Who can understand it?

Post Roll Kris
I Quit with you today.

You are in our February quit group...welcome to the club! The "cost of admission" is posting the roll early every single day. It may sound weird, but I can recommend enough getting some phone numbers from people in your quit group. It's important to have a lifeline if you find yourself in a tough spot. We are all going through recovery from the same addiction. This truly is life or death and you are correct, smokeless is as addictive as narcotics.

Post roll, get involved, and play an active role in holding your fellow quitters accountable. The accountability is what makes things work here on KTC. Look at some of the vets who show support to our quit group....people with years of quitting under their belt. The system willl work, jump in with both feet. I'm heading down this road with you! Welcome!

Don't glamorize it too much, I developed a hate for the chains of nicotine that continue to motivate me. You are stronger then that addiction, remember that. Acknowledge it and post roll every day, keep your promise. If I can do it after more then 20 years so can you.

Wow Kris, that intro was pure addict bullshit, but you also posted your daily promise and that is the key to success! Congrats on that! it's dangerous to romanticize our addiction and its hard to tell why you are quitting. It's a sad thing, but nicotine will never forget us, but though KTC you can keep winning each day.

Kris, I have a sense that your post is facetious, and it better be. I quoted a particular line from your post that is especially addict-speak. It IS nicotine's fault. Your "girlfriend" was slowly but actively killing you. Your "girlfriend" was hogging you from the rest of your friends and family because you couldn't wait to ditch them in favor of spending more time with her.

You have to learn to hate nicotine with every drop of your being. It's not easy to do this at first because nicotine has its talons so deeply entrenched in your brain right now. Post roll, keep your promise and tell nicotine 'Finger'. I have done so and it feels fantastic to take my life back.
