Thanks to the wife I still don't have a can. I probably would have caved on the way to work this morning if she would have stopped. 'Crazy'
Brother, make it easier on yourself. Take caving off the table. You posted,, keep you're word. If i can make it 300 days then you can damn sure make it today. You have to dig deep. Quitting comes from deep. Determination, drive and your word. How bad do you really want it? Quit with you today.
Well done as you pushed through to a victory. Yes I said victory.

Does the QB of a football team win a game 7-0 when it is a pick 6 that was thrown by the other team (so a defense is what scored). Why yes it is.

So its the same when you are giving credit here to the wife, you are the center and the middle of this team. And you won today. So don't forget your teammates at home and here on the site.

Quitting with a strong bad ass today +1
quitting ALL day long with you. Im 6 hours into a 24 hour shift. PM Me if you need my number. i will be awake ALL NIGHT. We got your back tough guy. You bitch slapped the nic today. That goes for all PM me if you need.
Hoss, we've all been where you are now. And while you should thank your wife, take a little credit too. You didn't go out of your way to go get that can...
You can do this, we are all proof of that. Buckle up and ride it out. Get on the forum here or into live chat whenever you feel vulnerable. If you can't do that, make sure you have some phone numbers of quit brothers to text and call if necessary.
It will get better if you just nut up and hang in. Refuse to lose this battle cowboy, because it really is a matter of life or death.
Fish, eat, sleep. Repeat.

The poison sucks. I hate it. I hated it this morning, I hated it at noon, I hated it at supper and I hate it tonight. I enjoy hating it so much I'm going to wake up tomorrow and start over hating it. I quit with anyone that wants to hate it with me.

I don't get it. I love my wife but she is driving me crazy right now. Is it because I am resenting her for still smoking? I just feel so fucking pissed off right now. Even as I type his I am getting pissed. Wtf? I know I am naturally an asshole with chew. Had no idea I was this bad without it, wondering if it is even right to put my family through this.  'bang head'
Redneck, you should jump in chat and chat with the guys in there! I'm jumping in now. There are always a few to jump in there and vent with!
I think watching you go through chemo would be harder for your family... stay the course
I can only second this ^^^^^ bad ass's words.
I would rather lose to a cheater than win as a cheater.

"CLOSE THE DOOR. In my opinion, it?s the single most important step in your final quit. There is one moment, THE moment, when you finally let go and surrender to the quit. After that moment, no temptation will be great enough, no lie persuasive enough to make you commit suicide by using tobacco."

Great to have you here. Read as much as you can. I look at the cancer pictures on the KTC website too. You will do roll call in the morning. If you haven't already read the stories in the words of wisdom section. I didn't think I would like giving out my phone number to people I thought it would be strange but I really feel honored that some of the vets on here have reached out and are pulling for me. It is a great motivator. You are never alone in this place.

Well I see you've been checking us out for a week or so and finally jumped in. Welcome aboard. Your wife didn't get you addicted so don't take any of your quitting suck out on her. Have her read the Spousal support section so she has a bit of understanding of what to expect and then bring your anger, rage and fight home to us. We can take anything you can bring, I doubt you can do or say anything we haven't dealt with. Posting roll is your first responsibility, and that's how you begin each day! Not optional!!

Well I quit last night. Just decided not to stop an buy a can on the way home so the one I had in was it. Last night was rough especially right after supper. I wanted a dip so bad, but stayed strong. How did I ever let something get this kind of hold on me? I have already been a complete ass to my wife and probably more I haven't realized. I cant let this win. The biggest thing I am concerned about is if I start gaining weight. I have a historical problem with my weight, and have finally gotten it to a manageable level. Just don't want to loose that fight as well. I have never used a forum for something like this, but figure I have learned a lot about my truck on forums so why wont this work.

Thanks,
Jesse
It's a lot easier to lose weight than cancer.

Go read the Welcome Center, then get your name on roll. Then, come back here are rage on us (in the threads or in Live Chat). Don't take it out on the wife, it's not her fault your an addict that is going to go through hell over the next few days.
You are in the right place to quit. Listen to what these people tell you and you will succeed. These are people who know EXACTLY what you are feeling, thinking, and going thru. They have made it. So can you. Listen to them, ignore anything the addiction keeps whispering to you, like how hard quitting is.

It's a peice of cake. It's a decision, you make it, It's done. Once you make that 1 simple decision, which it looks like you have, post roll and we will show you how to deal with the consequences of your teriffic decision to Quit.

Everything you need to suceed:
