It's like breaking up with a BAD ex gifriend. Yes, after the breakup, she will tempt you... try to get you to come back... oh, the sex was good, wasn't it?... then come back!

The decision is how you handle it. Do you wallow in the temptation? Think constantly about how nice it would be to go back to her? Think, every night, whether or not you are going to give in and call her?.... and constantly torture yourself with these thoughts?

Or do you stand firm and make this a CLEAN break. Yes, you miss the companionship... but you KNOW that along with this comes ALL of the bad shit that came with it... the slavery, the guilt, the health issues, etc. Nicotine is BAD NEWS, do not let it tempt you. It is not good companionship, it is actually evil companionship that steals your health, your money, your time, your self esteem, etc.

And refuse to allow yourself to wallow in nostalgia for it. Instead, turn your back to it, and RUN.

One of the evil tricks nicotine plays on your mind when you leave it behind is to tell you that you are a loser. Then your expectations for yourself are low, and why shouldn't a loser like you start to dip again, since you are a loser anyway.

Don't believe that lie. Nicotine will tell you all kinds of lies to get you to bring it back into your life.

Every day you stay quit you are a winner. Ignore all of that negative self-talk you are having with yourself. This is your new life.

You got this. You are probably at the worst of the craves and mind games. By the end of your work week you should be finding solid solutions for combatting them which will begin to diminish the hold the Nic bitch has over you. She is now about out of your system. From here on out, it is truly a mental battle.

Welcome Rem and nice job posting roll today. Keep up the pushups and water, both should help a ton in the beginning. Get to know the quitters in your group and get engaged with the site. There is a ton of information and motivation to help you get your mind right for the battle. If you need anything, don't be afraid to reach out. We'll get through it together, one day at a time (ODAAT).

Intro 4 days after the flush
« on: November 02, 2015, 12:15:00 PM »
Flushed on Thursday night Oct 29 after 30+ years of chew/dip/snus/death. I gave myself the weekend to get through the worst of it, but being back at work today makes it feel like I'm at day 1. I just stopped writing to do some pushups  get a bottle of water because no matter what it feels like right now, FREEDOM feels better.

The last time I tried to quit about 6 years ago, I didn't handle it well and ended up getting a divorce, so I was pretty scared of trying to quit again. Since then I've been facing my inner demons, all the shit from my life that's tripped me up, shut me down, and given me some kind of excuse to be a dumbass.

It's MY fault that I'm here - I made the choice to do those things, and made the choice to be addicted to nicotine. Sure, other people have played a part in all my shit, but the bottom line is that how I act, what I choose, is up to ME and me ALONE.

Today I quit nicotine in every form again. Today I choose my own path. Today I am FREE for the 4th day in a row. My body and mind ache and twitch, my patience is thin, but this will pass, and I'll feel better than I ever have soon enough. I've put up with horrific pain  endured worse for longer - this ain't nothin' I can't take, and I only have to take it for the rest of today, because tomorrow doesn't exist for me yet.

FREEDOM!
