Well 126 days later and man what a difference! Dont get me wrong there's still shitty days where I still have to take the approach of quitting moment to moment, but it's much better than before. The pull from nic is just not as strong.

One thing I really think has helped me so far is that I actually believe that I can quit. I really want to do this and I really believe I can continue doing this. Other past attempts I was always unsure if I could, I didn't believe I could do it. But now I know I can, and will!

I have to give credit to this site, I really appreciate having all these people that are going through the exact same shit as me. It helps me to know that yes, having craves 4 months, or even 4 years after quitting is perfectly normal and that you will get through them.
Congrats on 126. Enjoy today and do tomorrow, tomorrow. Brother, 286 here, I have had some killer dip dreams lately. I wake up and I feel as though I actually started back. Just prepare for when you have those if you haven't already, that it isn't real although it feels that way. Proud to be quit with you today.

RIP My Brother!

Hello all, I've known about this site for a while now. Been on it a lot the past few days. I made the decision to quit Saturday. I've "tried" before, but I never had the right mindset. I'm quitting for good. I hate being a slave to this shit and never going back. I'm on day 4 and I'm just taking it moment to moment for now. It's not as difficult as I remember, but I keep telling myself to stay on alert. Not much fog, the suck really hasn't been all that bad, but I'm prepared. I've been chewing gum (just normal orbit) and eating mints. Those lifesaver wint-o-green things. I keep putting little reminders on my phone too for the next day to tell me things like "don't give in!". It sounds corny but it has been helping. Im glad I found a place where people will understand what I'm going through.
Head over to the April group and hop on roll. Posting your promise every day a cornerstone of this site. Get to know those quitting with you and swap digits; If you find yourself in a situation and you don't feel able to handle it on your own text/call. Being accountable to others in your group will help you as much as it'll help them!

Great decision, yes it is hard but each day will be better then the last. Quit forever but do it one day at a time.

Great job posting roll! The only thing that could make you regret that is to stop posting. Post roll, early, every damn day! Apply yourself to ktc. What you put in is what you will get in here. Engage in your group. Read, listen, learn. Get numbers, you will need them. It's gonna suck ass till it don't but I promise you whatever you go through its damn worth it! Damn proud of you! Quit on!
Tobacco is so addictive it took me a year after a massive heart attack, in which doctor confirmed caused from dipping to finally put a lid on the bitch! ODAAT EDD

Congratulations on your decision. Get ready to work and battle each day for your quit.
This site works if you post roll every day and invest in yourself and others.
See you around,
