Gratz on the hundo!
Some of my fondest and clearest memories are peeing in places that aren't bathrooms.

Day one and that little fucking voice in the back of my head is telling me "your not addicted like these guys." Â….I'm licking my lower lip about every 5 seconds, so why does my mind wander to "your not an addict"?
oh yea, that's addict talk courtesy of your old friend nicotine. She's pretty pissed off at you because you haven't given her any sustenance in the last 24 hours. Maybe you don't have headaches, or physical symptoms, but you definitely have the subconscious psychological shit.

We've all been there and done that. Many of are still doing that cuz even when the nicotine is out of your system, your addiction to her will always remain. Never again for any reason can you let her win. Ever. Welcome to KTC, your new lifeline to make sure YOU win one day, one battle at a time.

OK so some interesting thoughts. I'm reading some of the bio's of the other people on the site and I start thinking... I was never a tin a day or even a tin every two days... maybe I don't ... WTF! Day one and that little fucking voice in the back of my head is telling me "your not addicted like these guys." I know I'm an addict, I act exactly like an addict, I'm licking my lower lip about every 5 seconds, so why does my mind wander to "your not an addict"?
She is whispering in your ear. Filling you with self doubt. She doesn't want to let you go and she won't. She is tricking you.

You are in the right place bro.

We all quit with you

My guess is because you don't want to be one, none does, yet here we are.
I was a two tin/week guy because I was a stealth dipper, threw tins out when 2/3 gone because it would get dry. I'm still an addict. It's kind of like pregnant, you can't be just a little pregnant.
You're doing the right thing! It may suck, but it's righteous medicine for you and your body.
I'm a quitter and proud, you should be too!
You're not not saying 'you're not an addict', that's the nicotine bitch lying to you!

Welcome to the best ride of your life.....Nicotine Free.........It will be a bitch for the first few days as the suck really sets in and the bitch tries to sweet talk you into coming back for her. Don't give her the satisfaction and stomp on her guts instead. Welcome to the asylum and remember its one day at a time and only one day. That motto is the only way to survive this. Quit with you today............

Nice intro. You seem like you are in the exact right place mentally too.

The only thing I want to stress to you is that you should post roll every damn day when you first get up. That way you remove the possibility of falling for the nic bitch for your entire day. It's all about honoring your word to your quit brothers/sisters.

I quit with you brother.

This is a great self evaluation. Admitting and objectively seeing addiction is a huge step.

The day I admitted I was addicted to nicotine was the day I controlled nicotine instead of nicotine controlling me. It does not make quitting easy, it just meant I call the shots.

Well done sir!
