Damn guys i don't know why but today's been the worst so far, I started work at 8 and if course half my co workers dip so I get to see that all day on top of that I'm tired as hell and usually when I'm tired I chew quite a bit more, I have my gum and two bags of seeds with me and I've been reading this site for about half hour now, only day two and I'm already being tested but I did promise no nicotine and I keep my promises

Welcome jack. Listen to these veterans on here they will not steer you wrong. They told me they first 3 days would suck and they did for sure. I am on day 5 and it is getting easier by the day. Just hang in there like a hair in a biscuit. We will get through this together as a june group.

Welcome, there are plenty of those who are quit for months and years. Then are guys like me, who are just days in. The guys that have been quit for a long while are always willing to help, sometimes they will be blunt and tell you how it is, but remember they truly care. Tough Love!

I am an 8-9 year addict and on Day 4, not even looking back or thinking twice about this decision. Let's make this HOF in June together!

Welcome back to the quit zone...
Quit: 2/23/13
HOF: 6/3/13
2nd Floor: 9/10/13
One Year 2/23/14
Two Years 2/23/15
1000 Days 11/19/15

Ron it is good to see you coming back but I certainly expect your participation. Drink deep and accept the help from others but also pay it forward. Those of us that quit back when you paused are now approaching that 1 year mark, it's been damn hard and a lot have fallen by the sidelines. I'm still posting daily, why? I still need that daily commitment and I know that I can't do it alone yet! I wish I could but I'm still susceptible to my addiction!

One of the mods want to combine this intro with his new one.
Well I'm very glad to see you doing so good after a year and I am fully committed to this quit and website, so I will be participating, I'm gonna post as early as I can and be active on this site to help with my quit I'm excited to be nic free but know it's not an easy road

Welcome. Were in the same quit group, im on day two. Im a 10 year addict, and i do think this site has value in regards to quitting. If you need anything send me a PM. Remember, one day at a time

Well I've already done an intro on here and I was one of those guys that thought they didn't need a site like this and figured I was better off on my own so, I went out and quit for about 45 days then gave into the nic bitch, then I learned a little support can go along way and I thought of this site and today I quit yet again but with people in the same position as me but anyway a little bit about me again my name is Ron I've chewed for probably around 30 years and 47 now so it's time to get on board and do this

Welcome to your quit! You can do this!
There are plenty of seniors on this site (I"m 51). I chewed for ~38 years, quit since feb 10. The freedom is worth it!
There ain't nothing wrong with young guys. We quit like fuck.
