Well I just decided it's time to quit. Spending $3.00 a day is getting old. I've tried to quit a few times just on my own but this is it. It needs to happen. I've never put any of this in writing so I'm hoping this will serve as a reminder that this is the day. Congrats to all that have quit. This is going to be tough but here goes nothing.
Very wise decision. Its just a shame that it take so many of us so long to decide to do so.

Secondly as the coach said there is not "hope" in the quit. There is only do.

1. do post roll
2. do post roll daily
3. do get numbers for support
4. do not give up and cave, ever, never fucking ever

Its gonna get tough, and everything will irritate or annoy you. Use the rage to fuel your quit.

Do not go gentle into that good night. Do not go down without a fight. Rage! Rage against the dying of the light.

Get mean, and get quit

First and foremost, Good on Ya for deciding to quit!

Second, you are right, this is going to be tough...but where you are wrong is in saying, "Here does nothing." WRONG...here goes EVERYTHING. You need to eat, sleep, breath, shit, fuck, piss, drink, think, dream QUIT.

You have to be committed to this...you have to want this more than anything else. Get the thought of "HOPING" out of your head. Hope isn't going to get this quit done. To quit is an action - it requires physical action - not just hoping it happens. Take this thing by the horns and make it yours

Blah...Blah...Blah...You keep TALKIN....I'll keep QUITTIN

I'm not here to make friends, I'm here to support YOUR quit.

Welcome huntnfish,

You are in the July quit group found here:

index.php?showtopic=4518

It is with these guys you will quit and build accountability by posting roll, which is your promise not to use any form of nicotine for that day. Making that promise is the first thing that you should do every day.

glad to be quit with you!

Huntnfish, I chewed for 13 years and during the last 8 years, I tried to quit hundreds of times and couldn't make it through a whole day once, until I found this site. Take roll seriously because that is your fuckin oath. When you sign roll, you are promising all of us and YOURSELF, that you are not chewing today. Don't let nic win my man, especially when you got this many people that wanna help you. Message me if you need any help. None of that pussy-ass givin in shit when you sign roll, you got this.

Roll out of bed everyday and post roll...get on here and read HOF speeches everytime you crave...go to chat and rave and cuss and yell everytime you want to kill someone...embrace the fog, remember it, and most important remember that you only want to have to go through it once!

Huntnfish, you are just a couple days behind me. I quit on Friday. You will be in the July quit group with me. I am not going to lie, but he last couple of days have been hell but every time I have had a craving, I got some seeds and have come to this site to read others stories. It has really helped me. Stay strong.

You made the right decision coming here dude! You can and WILL quit!

Make sure to post roll each day. It will help strengthen your resolve to stay quit, and we sure as hell understand what you're going to experience on this journey.

It will be worth it, and you'll be a better man for it too.

Let me know if I can help. We're all here for you brother.

Writing it down does help. Posting Roll every day helps more.
