Quote from: icandoitforever
Yesterday I hit 40 days clean. It's funny - I got congratulations from the Badass Samurai (who are the most badass quitters I know), but it was in the middle of one of the worst, foggiest, craviest days I've had. I felt pretty good throughout my thirties, and then BAM. Last night I could barely think straight, could hardly interact with my friends, and I felt like utter hell.

All that said, I was excited to wake up in the morning and post roll. I get excited to post roll - and I enjoy doing it. It's a great victory. I KNOW today I'm not going to have nicotine. Even if I have an awful crave - I'll worry about that tomorrow. And, guess what - that's exactly what happened yesterday.

Quitting each day is so simple and so easy - and your body and mind heal a little each day. You feel less like and idiot for HAVING dipped, and more like a legend for all the days before this that you've quit, and the fact that you've chosen to say FU to Nic today.

Even when she comes back with a vengeance (like last night), that makes me feel good - I wouldn't say I enjoyed last night, but it felt damned good to "say no" and wake up clean this morning.
That's the kind of attitude it take to succeed at this. Well done!

Thanks for the support guys. One month feel so great! I can't believe how much money and "I've got to get out of here to stuff my mouth full of cancerous weed residue" moments I've saved in the last month.

Still go up and down, but the ups are steadily rising. So, so, so worth it. As I type this - I'm actually craving but man, I would never go back!
For what it's worth, I crave every day but it's so much easier to say 'Finger' nic! I'm so much happier and for once i can say I'm damn proud of myself for the 202 days clean, because I didn't think I could ever say that!

Yes to this. Day 6 and the last couple have definitely felt like living in the 3rd person. Thanks for posting, needed this today.
Glad it helped a little bit, King Nothing! The good new is . . . I now only feel like that about 1/3 of my days. (I'm on day 30). Actually, the last two days were really bad in the "third party" sense. Today, though, I've felt great. It's amazing how much it continues to improve each week.

Stay strong - it REALLY does get better. Even though it feels like you've been stuck in this week forever . . .. it's only been a week. A month from now, you'll look back and realize that things are SO much better than they EVER were when you dipped.

Proud to quit with you!

Accessing your personality = rewiring your brain. That's gonna take a while. Earlier in my quit, hell somedays I would have to stop and say, damn did I just say that. Hey but it gets much better, 176 days later I still have my days, addict mind - hell with this I'm going to get a tin! Ktc mind- myself and brothers and sisters will get through this together! Damn proud to be quit with you today my friend!
Thanks Pab! I totally get what you mean with the "did I just say that?" part. I swear I was having a conversation last night and my mouth felt like it was sitting across the table from me.

Congrats on 176, and proud to quit with you today!

I've just been reading a lot of intro threads - came across a post where someone was "afraid" during their first day. Afraid of being nervous, of craves, of missing dip.

Well DAMN - that is one crazy-assed needy weed. I mean seriously - I would dump any girl that needed me so bad she couldn't go a single day without me. Why do dippers worship that nic bitch so much?

I absolutely hate here. I'll kill her every damned day.

I've been pretty blah today. Not really bad - mostly just not myself, not as easy and lighthearted. A little snappy. Got into a little argument with my best friend. Can't really seem to "access my personality" if that makes sense. Anyway - best part of the day has been reading these forums. I know it gets better, and honestly I don't really mind it being bad right now. SO interesting learning about the quit and really deep diving into this addiction.

See you on roll tomorrow!

So what you going to do with this chance?
I absolutely love KTC. Man - I GET IT. I feel so good about being quit. I honestly feel so happy just being on this forum and reading about all you fuckers.

Makes me excited to be quit. I haven't ever felt this way - not really - in all my stoppages before. Commitment to myself and something bigger - this community. I love the way this feels.

Thanks guys - even those busting my ass (or especially you guys).

In the end I Surrender, I and I alone accept that I have and always will have a Nicotene ADDICTION. It is my choice to quit, but I can't do it alone. I get to go down this path one time, I want to do it right. I recognize that my word, my integrety to you is on the line and is only as good as my actions. Caving is not an option in this plan-Eafman 7/11

I am not cured. I will quit one day at a time. I will continue to do what works. Posting roll everyday. To do otherwise would be foolish on my part. You can do this-Ready 12/11

To overcome your addiction you must comprehend what it means to fail-Razd 3/12

Theres a lot of people that come here, especially vets, that WANT to be reminded that they are addicts.-Tarpon 6/12

Just as a building starts with architectural drawings. Your daily quit begins with a promise.-Scowick 2/13

Here and now, focused on today, minute by minute, whatever it takes, I promise to all my bros and myself not to become a negative stat and stay quit!-krok 1/15

I want everyone to be quit. Even the assholes.-Probe1957 1/18

Ignoring history or erasing history fixes nothing and leads you inevitably down the same path.-69franx 04/30/2021
