Fought through it. Seemed the urge lasted literally hours today. I am feeling better now and stronger to fight. This was my most serious test yet and I beat it. CONFIDENCE.

Thank you guys so much for your words (cannot stress that enough).

I am ready to be tested further.
Fucking awesome.

Very proud of you man.

I'll give ya another hint that helps:

If you're struggling, I guarantee somebody in your group is as well. Post that right up in your group and you'll be surprised how many people respond in all sorts of creative, takes your mind off the crave ways.

Good job.

The sign of a good quitter is when he says "Thank you. May I have another." after biting his lip raw with craves.

thank you guys soooooooooooo much
right now i am fighting that urge so hard

the urge to break up the day, to be satisfied, knowing that the next dip is going to be so fucking euphoric it'll knock me on my ass and i'll be in complete bliss for the next hour

i need to write to convince myself that because of the shit i just said.. nicotine is so powerful

i will not be it's slave

i have a fellow brother i'm about to text with right now to get me through this

this site is my life line
That next dip will not be euphoric.

It will be fucking horrible.

Trust me. I've been there.

If you have kids, it's like giving into a 3 year old throwing a fit at the store because you won't buy him a new toy. Sure, he'll shut up for now but he's going to be louder next time and knows that you will bend. Fucking do this, and be in control.

That "next dip" will feel shitty, so you'll throw in another and another. It's just not worth it.
The only thing nicotine does is releave the symptoms resulting in refraining from its use. "Euphoria" is only the sessation of withdrawal. It then starts all over again and she has you by the balls once more. Kick the bitch in the face. She is a liar.

Soon this will all pass. You can do this. One day at a time.

I am 41 hours post dip.  1 hour past my previous longest quitting attempt!
I am in this, one day at a time.  I will not dip for 13 more hours.  Will worry about tomorrow when it gets here.
Just keep repeating the same steps that have made you successful these last 40 hours.

Quitting is like a high wire act. You've got to walk on this skinny little rope. When you first started 40 hours ago, you were 4 inches off the ground. Now you're 10 feet off the ground and shit will hurt if you fall.

We'll help you balance, but it's up to you to ask for help. Make some friends. It really helps the time pass, and makes it easier to ask for help. I've met some cool ass people here that have saved my ass many times. Just yesterday, I talked to a brother for an hour and it lifted a great weight from my shoulders. Words can't express the power of this site.

Think of all the things that led you back to the can those previous attempts, and don't do that. As humans, we learn from our mistakes. Repeating them is just stupid.

Get through today. You can do it. I'm very proud of you.
yes great job Scotdot

and good to see your name on that roll. So remember to honor that pledge for the day. Work on it hour by hour, get on the site here and read, go exercise, hop into chat and curse us all out. Do anything to keep the crap out of your body

Day 3 - getting close to the end of the major suck - so bear down, you CAN do this.

I quit with you today

You got balls Scott?

Embrace this battle friend. When you're left standing on the other side of this fight looking down at the heathen liar nic bitch, you'll be steel. You are worth more. Remember that. You are fighting because you know you are worth more. You no longer are controlled by a chemical. You are free my friend. With each step you place on this Earth sense that you are free. Say it out loud "I QUIT". Let the fucking world know that you are back and you take no shit from anyone.

Something that has helped me is quit watching that f'ing clock! It is the enemy of all that is good in my world. Go outside, watch tv, work on the truck, do yard work, do anything besides watch that f'ing clock. At night I would turn it upside down so I couldn't see it. All I needed to know was my alarm wasn't going off so fuck it.

I quit with you today, good job.

I am at 26 and a half hours. This is the second longest quit attempt I've ever done. Sounds lame but the rest would all end before 24 hours was up.

I guess this isn't a quit attempt, this is my quit success today. One day at a time, forever.

I'm fighting back a hard urge right now. Watching the clock. Foggy headed. I keep picturing how amazing it would feel to just pop in a dip right now.

But instead, I got on here and posted. Reading your replies have helped. This three minutes should be up sometime soon.

STAYING STRONG!

EDIT| I have passed this point:

24 Hours - Anxieties peak in intensity and within two weeks should return to near pre-cessation levels.

Going on 17 hours dip free. I have passed these quit tobacco time table marks:

8 hours - Remaining nicotine in your bloodstream will have fallen to 6.25% of normal peak daily levels, a 93.25% reduction.

12 hours - Your blood oxygen level will have increased to normal and carbon monoxide levels will have dropped to normal.

Booyahhh!

I have posted roll for today with my quit group. For today, no nicotine will enter my body. That is within my reach and I will conquer it!
Right on Scott.

Take each victory for what it is: a victory!

There is NO reason - NONE - to put that shit in your face again.

You can do this.

If you need anything, you shoot me a PM. Anything. Advice, a phone number, clean hooker - anything. I live in Maine, btw, and I guess we have a nice lot of clean hookers. Whodathunkit?

Mid-afternoon Jonesin' hard. Chewing some gum. Day 23. Thought these f'in urges would dial down by now. Less frequent, but just as strong. All between my ears.....

The Nic is a nasty bitch.
