New guy

[Stoner]

Didn't catch your intro when you first posted, but I read it this morning and had to at least leave a comment since I was a Redman nut myself. Hence the name. You can read my HOF speech (link below) if you want the rest of that story. It may hold some similarities for you. I'm wondering if you ain't an old southern boy too, cause the phrase "woop this shit" has been stuck in my vocabulary for years now.

One other comment, and you've probably heard it already: water works well to ease the ups  downs with your diet and side-effects. Drink a lot of water over the next few weeks to help flush your system.

Glad to be quit with you. PM me if I can help you any way or if you need another number.

23 years with RedMan. One of my issues is I'm self employed, in sort of a male only field of landscaping and supply. Tractors, loaders, mowers and dirt. You know, manly stuff, just like chew.

I never really had the accountability to anyone. I've known my wife since I was 14, we didn't get married until we were 27, but she knew my habits.

I would tell my kids I was chewing mulch. They thought it was wierd, but hey, dad sells mulch and he chews it, whatever. Not until my son(11) started to ask about the warnings did the quit become serious. My wife found him in bed last week sobbing, "I don't want dad to die".

This quit is for me, 100%. But hey everyone needs a little kick in the ass, right?

How can you bring a child into this world and potentially leave them for something so stupid.

BTW, I'm born and raised in NJ, college in NC, and live in SC now. Probably would have quit a long time ago if I still lived up North. Can't believe the prices up there. They make it too easy to kill yourself in the south.

I'm done with this shit.

Congratz to all the quitters today, myself included.

So. It's day 3 or 4 or whatever, it's another day. Today is weird though. I have a ton of energy. The fog is lifting and I'm all jacked up, ready for action. Not really sure if the NIC was keeping me down or if it's just too much caffienne, although I have not changed anything I do or eat, except the RedMan.

Anyone feel the same?

Congrats on the quit. I had that same kind of energy for a couple days during my first week also. I got a lot of shit done.

I read somewhere that when you are on nic, your body handles caffeine differently. I think the article said that on nic you need twice as much caffeine to get the same effect as someone not on nic. If you haven't changed anything except red man, then perhaps the same intake of caffeine is having a double effect on you and that explains why you are jacked up and ready for action. Good luck.

Way to go Stoner. Check out the HOF speeches and Words of Wisdom. That shit helped me a lot during the early days.

[Phil4]

Welcome, Stoner. Hang in there the next few days. They will suck, but you can do it. I did with the help of this crazy site. Muscle through the next few days one day at a time. Post roll for the day, consume no nic, repeat next day. I quit with you.

Welcome Stoner. Roll Call...every day. No questioning...just doing.

It won't be easy, but is damned sure worth it.

Signed roll call. Last chew was last night. My son started reading the RedMan wrappers and asked if it could kill me. I said, yup. I'm nothing if not honest.

Good part is I already know about being an addict, stopped drinking over 15 years ago, no problem. This is a different game. Chewed for over 20 years and I just turned 40. Look forward to the support as I woop this shit. No question about it, this time is for real. Thanks in advance for your support.

Stoner:

Congrats on your decision to quit and more importantly, to quit with all of us misfits here. I still consider myself a newbie here as today is just my 20th day but I will tell you that if you utilize the tools before you that you, too, will be on the road to being nic-free before long. Shout out if you need anything and again, welcome.
