Today the train is heading back to the land of O H I O to pickup Oceanic815, but by judging his avatar it would be safe to say this is no buckeye fan. Oceanic815 is single with no kids 'Cheers' that has been a dipper for almost a decade.

Here is what he had to say, "I think that the hardest part and where KTC was helpful was that someone was doing it too and was aware that I wasn't supposed to be. Accountability on this site is actually rather striking for me, as for a long time friends, family and everyone else could not get me to do it, but having this site made a huge difference. Plus I think you have to be in the right place and some of the wisdom of other dippers who are tired and fed up with it controlling them helps move you along to the place where you can hear that advice. I think along with that the roll call makes you make your choice for the day and the rest is easy after you start doing it a few times. Along with that is the sense of support in people looking out for each other and knowing where to come in the case of an impending cave. I will be staying for the next 100 days for sure and hope that I can be better about posting earlier in the day despite a crazy work schedule."

Welcome aboard the train Oceanic815!!!

Welcome! Sounds like you're busy. I have a wife, kids and own a business in Michigan - great place to work, at least if you don't like money. So I get it, I'm busy too, I've got a wee bit of stress as well. So do most of the guys here - they all find time to post roll and many of them have MADE time to get and stay active here. I hope you do too. I bet you'd have a lot to offer. I'd like to challenge you to find the time to be an asset to your group. If not on roll - get some cell numbers and call or text a few of your fellow quitters. It might seem like it's helping them and it is. It won't take you too long to see that it helps you even more though.
Again, welcome
Your point is certainly well made and im certainly not the only one who is busy. i hear you loud and clear, I will make the time and appreciate all of you commenting and your words of advice...

Except for my wolverine friend..haha... Just kidding, he's on the short list of maize and blue supporters I give a pass to :)

It's ok you were a little late on the intro, some of us are aware you crashed on an island that tends to move around all by itself and you we a little "lost"...
I used to love watching that show. It got a little weird towards the end. But still a pretty damn good show. LOST.

Invest in your quit by investing in your quit group- best path for success is to take the time to make yourself successful. This site has all the tools you need but you have to use this site to it's full potential. Just like Mich 34 stated get involved, get plugged in, help others, doing these things will only strengthen your quit.

well I love the combination more than I thought I would.. when I first got here it was all the idiot redneck fans that stood out to me cause it was a new place and of course it wasn't better than east lansing.....

now that I've called it home for 5 years I have to say its like having two parents and I love both universities (but I still cheer for sparty over the buckeyes-hell it fed my family growing up and my dad is a 25 year employee at MSU)

either way, I've met some awesome fans down here and I couldn't ask for a cooler place to be living in my 20's... looking forward to the fall though-we will have some fun
you bet. cuz that ohio state unaverse is gonna put a nuther ass woopin on old blue and man your on the rite side. oooh yeah hokamania is runnin wild in a2 and they are gonna be lappin up his 9-4 and 10-3 days just like the old days. man i can evin cheer for sparty to give um the old beet down.
Yeah, old Urban go the payroll opened up REAL nice at OSU. Hopefully he can cut down on the 25 players arrested he had while at Florida.

No worries, Hokemania is pulling some top notch recruiting class the old fashion way. He don't wear a head set and he don't wear sleeves.

Bring on college Football!!!

Sounds to me like you got your head on straight and have a legit grasp of why you are here. That's more then I can say for some that have passed through. To go the distance you have to do this for you. Fear of cancer will not sustain you. But cancer obviously isn't your main motivator. You see it every day. You know it better then we do. Sounds like you are motivated by a need to not be controlled by an addiction. Great news! for the last week YOU have controlled it. You are taking back your life and we are here for you! Lean on us when ever you need too.
