Welcome to the jungle.
Post Roll - Simple and effective. Make it your goal to never miss the honor and opportunity to do this every day you are wake. Be a 100% poster in your group.
Be a man of your word when you post roll, it is your promise that you are quit for that day. You are in a brotherhood so keep your promise and support your group in making sure they keep their word to you.
Get Numbers PM your number to people you want to be quit with. I will PM you my number. When it is a bad crave or tough day, you must text or call your support to get permission to cave. Never, ever cave without asking permission first.
Keep a journal The human mind can not remember pain. Use this intro to document victories and agonies. You can go back and recall experiences. It also helps your brothers get to know and understand you as well.
Never think long term for your quit The addicted mind can not think of being quit for ever. When you think about being quit long term, you will feel that it is impossible and weaken your resolve. Just worry about staying quit today. If tomorrow comes, post roll. Until then, put 100% of your quit energy into today.
You will have nic rages Overdo it on love and kindness to your wife and loved ones. Fake it if you must. They didn't make you an addict and they shouldn't suffer the wrath of the detox. Come here and vent. We have done it and we can handle it. We suffer and win together. Write down what pisses you off and vent here. You need to vent and this is the place to do it.
Laugh often Best therapy for me and my craves was laughing. Stay close to the site. If you read enough and chat enough...you will start to laugh. Many brothers said the most off the wall things and I would laugh. When I laughed I totally forgot about how hard it was to go through this.
This will be what if feels like at the start 'bangin' then you will see the lies of tobacco and then you will be doing this to your addiction 'tough'
I wish you resolve, determination and a relentless desire to quit. If you want luck, buy a lottery ticket and see where that gets you. You don't need luck. Just do this and get your real life back.
