Title: Day 1 Intro
Post by: p23 on June 17, 2012, 02:26:00 PM
Hello all,

This is Day 1 for me and I'm sitting here with what seems like an empty stomach, jitters and nervousness. The worst part of this feeling is that it is flat out sad that I have let it come to this.

17 year addict, from kodiak to cope. Being surrounded by dippers at work never really helped any, but I've finally came to the realization that I need to break these chains.

Cans, pouches and whatever else have been purged and it's time to get this rolling.

Thanks,

p23

You got a comment from cbird! Whatever he tells you, follow it with exactness. You can't fail if you follow his lead. I am 96 days quit and I wanted to quit but cbird, other vets and my group taught me how to control my addiction.

I wanted to respond because you said you were sad. It touched me because I was so sad when I quit. The realization that I was an addict was painful! How could I be an addict?

Stay quit. Stay close to kTC! I think you should use this intro as a journal of your quit. Write down your feelings, your triumphs and just you thoughts.

I was depressed but I realized that I was also having feelings of happiness! How could I be sad and happy? I was. I think quiting is painful, but controlling your addiction, keeping your word and feeling successful in quitting earns you freedom you haven't had since you where young.

It's a he'll of a ride. Embrace why you are sad and celebrate your victories in quitting...you too will feel sad and happy.

This is huge for your freedom. You are in hell. To get out, just keep walking. I am now 96 days quit. I no longer hump tobacco. I hate it, I declare war everyday I am awake. The burden of being quit is so light compared to allowing a can of tin rule me.

I want tobacco dead! I broke most of the ten commandments under its spell. It is a false god! You give your soul to it fo a buzz and risk cancer! What do you get back?

Nothing but sorrow. It is the biggest crock of shit snake oil.

Welcome to hell....just keep walking and you will feel a love and freedom in your life. The suck of this is worth it!

Check your pm, you have my number.

Thanks guys for both the private and public responses. The fiance has no clue how it feels. I tried to explain it to here but there is no way she could truly understand, but she fully supports this and I gave her the spousal support page so she can hear from someone else's point of view.

It's great to have a place to go where there are people who can relate first hand to the tough times in my near future. If I hit some shit spots I promise to chat/pm or do whatever I have to do to try and pass the time and move on to the next day.

thanks guys,

You will notice these guys are going to think you are a badass once the realize you are in it to win it. 1 day at a time. Someone might just ask you 1 day how you did. Just :) and show them how it is done.

Scodoggy is on it...

p23 you are the steel balled fucker. You are the real man. Those turds don't own their lives. You put your foot down and said "Fuck yeah...I'm worth more".

Eventually, you'll feel pity for them. After that will come superiority as you make your path. You aren't consciously putting poison into your body.

F UST.

p23.. Next few days are going to be a bitch! If you are here I'm sure you've tried to quit before.. Just do what the guys suggest.. day 14 here and truthfully it's so good it's scary! This morning I went to the Cracker Barrel for breakfast.. I needed more syrup.. They were slammed so I got up to go get it myself.. while I was gone the bus boy dumped an entire plate full of brand new-freshly buttered-ready to eat-CB-Pecan Pancakes!!! ( i guess he thought I was done)... Guess what.. I didn't even get mad.. not even a little.. I just said O well.. I swear dipping or not usually that would have ended differently! Quitter = Winner

Day 653 of owning my quit you intro post digging motherfucker.

I don't do the dear diary/livejournal that many others do as I spend most of my time in chat. But I will say that I do remember that day 4 was by far the toughest day I ever had. KTC, live chat and the vets helped me build a solid quit foundation.

Seagull was my first reply and is still my quit mentor to this day.

Dear Diary:

Miss Piggy was being a bitch today. She was too tired and didn't want me to pork her.
So I took care of it myself and she walked in on me.

She saw me looking at playpig online and now is treating me like I am some kind of freak? Maybe I am, I have a thing for pigs. What can I say.

She's balling saying, "I don't even know who you are anymore" I would feel bad but she looks so freaking hot right now. All I can think about is a porking that pig!

Hilarious coming from someone who obviously didn't care about their own quit. Cry somewhere else baby boy.

Meant to resurrect this in a positive light, sorry P.

Dear Diary,
There once was a day that I was kind and gentle, then I realized that nice frogs finish last. So I stand here today one quit Mother Frog, with an attitude and a tendency to say what I think.

P.S. Diary or others that read the diary if you don't like what I have to say, shut your damned ears.
