I was 14 yrs old and grew up watching my mom and dad smoke. No different than most people that are reading this. I got curious one night and took a smoke out of my dads pack after he fell asleep watching the game, I snuck into my room lit it and took a hit! From that point I was in love with the feeling . I started smoking reg. then baseball season came around and I couldn't breath. Thats when i was introduced to mr Kodiak when i was 15.
I started slow like most everyone else... when i could as long as i didn't get caught. Then i go my liscence and it was on. It was easy to come by living in a small country town in rural brown county ohio. Forward 16 yrs........ I am almost 31, I have a wonderful wife and a six yr old son. He asks me " Daddy what is that stuff you are eating? " I say " Nothing just yucky stuff" He responds. " If its so yucky why do you keep eating it?" at this point what can i tell him. So i tell him " I was foolish as a kid and made a bad decision, now im hooked" . He looked me right in the eye and said, " Daddy you can always spit it out and never eat it again!"
At that moment I knew I needed to quit. I came across this website and everything fell into place. I am only on day 3 but already feel accomplished at what I have done. It feels good to smile again! If you are reading this thinking about if you should quit or not I urge you to atleast give it a shot. The guys here are awesome! This quit is mostly about me but my son is playing a big part in this. I WILL stay strong, I WILL stay quit!.
Thanks to Cmark and Wedgie for getting me going! Keep your heads up Throbbin September 2012!!!!!
