We post roll every day around here. Where were you Saturday? You need to read up some Words of Wisdom and HOF speeches on the main page to really grasp the fact you need to be here because you are an addict. Why try to do something this monumental by yourself? You don't have to be a slave to the can. You have to remember we are all just like you, except we keep coming back here every day to promise our brethren that we will not use nicotine today.
Can you do that too? Once you make the commitment that you are quit, you will embrace ever phase of your quit. Just know that you are not alone with the thoughts that race through your brain. We all have the same addict thoughts and temptations. Once you think you have got this licked, you will be blindsided by the nicbitch. She preys on new triers and stoppers. Only a man who draws the line in the sand can fend her off. You draw a line with a promise to yourself and the people in the trenches with you that you will not use nicotine for the day. It is that simple. Your word is everything around here.
Once you give your promise, you are liberated to take on the day knowing that nicotine is not an option for you today because you gave your word. Hope you wake up Sunday and read this and reconsider what it's going to take to tackle your addiction. Remember, you did this to yourself and it's not going to be easy to get your life back, but I'm willing to stand here with you and help see you through your trials.
