Hey all my name is Ryan and I live in Hawaii....obviously.

I've been going back and forth with trying to quit on my own and I'm really hoping this place can help me kill the can.

I want to quit because I know the dangers but I always thought that I could rise above it.
I see you have already posted roll - I quit with you today - (let's do in again in 24)

Ryan, great decision. I would advise you that for this to be sucessful you post your promise everyday and get rid of the words hope, try, might, etc. We don't use those words here, we quit today, nothing else.

Hit me up if you need some help with anything.

Unless you bring value onto my 1/2 acre, I don't want to hear it.

Ryan you won't regret quitting buT like Eric said it is a commitment and it isn't easy, in fact it's damn hard but the freedom is so worth it! I see you did get posted in your group
That's great. Remember no nicotine in any form enters your body. If you have any cans laying around flush them!! Check your inbox I'll be glad to share # to text support!

Ryan,

Consider this a warning and a welcome. You need to understand that you are an addict. You are addicted to nicotine. The only way you can win this battle is to come to the site, make a daily commitment to yourself and the community here by posting roll, and honor your word. Do this everyday, one day at a time. You will go through some intense fog during the first few days so be prepared and stay close to the site. You will need to be able to navigate the site and use all the tools provided here to help in your quit. You should know how to get to live chat when you cannot get in touch with someone supporting your quit. You will need to exchange contact info with as many people as possible, those both in your quit group and some veterans of the site as well. I say this to you from experiences still fresh in my head. I remember the fog, the quickening, and the suck. I will never forget those days. They branded me and made me a free man. A man strong and determined to not let my addiction steal away my life from me. Is your desire to quit this strong? I do not mix words and, if you choose to be quit, I will stand beside you everyday. PM me for contact info, if you can commit to the quit.
