I work in the oilfield and most of my coworkers use tobacco so the temptation is always present so this is going to be a serious challenge and I need your support!

ok big red... you got buddys what dip and you prolly wont be avoidin um eether. they think your crazy for quittin cuz they cant do it. and so they will try to under mine your quit. one a those guys is gonna offer a dip and you need a plan. here's dromes plan for you... take the can with a big smile. open the can. turn the can 180 dagrees so the contents spill out on the ground. piss on the contents. (some times you cant do that so just mash it in to the ground with your shoes). put lid back on can. hand back to buddy. repete till they get the messige. once they get that messige try bummin a dip. repete the same steps. soon they wont let you touch there dip.
i bet you cood make the same kind a thing work for you.
^^^^ This method works. I dumped my brother-in-law's can when he tried the bullshit "you know you want one" several times after a few beers. I just kinda hung my head like I couldn't stand the withdrawal anymore, and reached out for his can. He was grinning ear to ear until I flung his shit in the fire we were standing around. Was he pissed? Yep. Did he get over it? Yep. Did he harrass me anymore? Nope, and that was 2 years ago. I never had to go to phase 2 of Syndrome's plan.

I'm a firefighter with a volunteer department, and tobacco is rampant in that crowd. I'm around it all the time, so I understand your situation. Temptation doesn't mean diddly squat if you're committed to your quit and prepared for the traps. Be prepared. Your coworkers will go through stages:

1. Laughing at you because they think you can't quit.
2. Harrassing you because they're jealous.
3. Mad because you're succeeding and they're still using.
4. Respectful because you are an iron-willed badass. This one takes a while.
The 4 stage analysis of being around users is spot on. Ultimately they are jealous of your committment and resolve. Take pride in your quit and you will be successful.

Bottom line here
1. we don't "try to quit" here, we QUIT, we declare it each day and that's it, nicotine is off the table

2. post roll daily,YOU ARE IN THE MAY GROUP. Posting roll that is a promise to yourself and your group that you will not use, this is necessary accountability. An addict without accountability is a USER

3. reach out for support, get in the live chat, try to meet a few quitters in your group,

Prepare for several days of "suck". You can do this man. You already took an enourmous step......you signed up here.

I quit with you today.
what IG2H says......lets do this
Welcome to the May Quitters. Clean Fuel is right, we don't try here, we do. Glad to have you in the group and look forward to posting roll with you every morning. Let me know if you have any questions. I quit with you today!
That is fricking awesome Matthew is on day 9 and he is one bad ass quitter, follow his lead! I remember my day 9, I was raging like a sob! Make those close connections with other quitters of your group they can turn into some awesome friendships. And most important keep you quit!!
