I've quit... and I hate it...

[Cook]

great job on the week! hey, relax the threats of physical violence are only there to exaggerate the resolve your quit brothers have in our commitment to provide you with whatever assistance you ask from us when you need support. the quit sucks from time to time and just know we are here for support.

[JPrzech]

One week down as of 1:30 this morning. I still miss it but not nearly as much as I thought I would. I'm with you, Turkey, making sure I'm around for my daughter is reason enough.

[JPrzech]

11X4.... how'd you know my middle name was Francis???

Oh yeah, by the way, 5 days and counting.

[Franpro]

JP:

As I am sure you are aware, the ass kicking was just a joke. By the way, I am 46 years old 5'10" 155lbs. Not many guys around this site who's ass I could kick. There are some big ugly mofos around this place. Only way I kick ass now a days is kicking the nick bitches ass on a daily bases - which by the way, she is pretty fucking tough!

Head over to the June '08 quit group and say hello to your quit class. 'nhl2'

[11X4]

Wow, thanks for the help. Some of you anyway. Call it a copout, call it what you want. I never said I might not make it on the drive to Boston. I'd never cave in Massachusetts, not with what those fuckers charge for a tin! I understand what you all are trying to accomplish, but threats of physical violence, whether real or sarcastic, that shit doesn't work with me. I'm here because I chose to be. I'm approaching 96 hours without a dip and is still sucks, but I'll deal with it. I'll let you know how it turns out. By the way, Hooch tastes a lot better with a little dash of Southern Comfort mixed in. Love that added flavor.

Relax Francis, the only person that takes your quit more serious than FranPro is hopefully you. That is just our "over the top" way of trying to make you aware that there is little we will stop at to help you help yourself stay quit.

Make sure you check out the Welcome Center of Killthecan.org (the underlined is a link) That will explain roll call. After you've read it, head on over to the June 08 quit group and join the other quitters that are on the same day as you.

Oh, and have I mentioned that there is little we will stop at to help you help yourself stay quit?

The drive will be worse if you cave on the way because I will be in Boston along with a few other NE quitters to kick your ass. I live 45 min north of Boston.

When you get off of 84 and on to the pike, look north and give a wave. If you yell hey 11x4, i might hear you.

Get yourself quit bro. This choice is yours and it is a choice you will have to make minute by minute at first. It can be done, we are all living proof of that.

BULLSHIT!!!

You are setting your self up to fail and you know it. Let me make my point:

...but I'm going to attempt to stick with it. - Attempt my ass, you WILL stick with it. You are 100% in control of your quit. Do not try, just DO it. No one ever put a dip in my mouth but me!

I'm on Day 4 right now. Scientifically speaking, the nicotine is out of my system, but psychologically it's not. Yep the mind is a bitch. Gum, seeds, tons of water will help!

I'm being a real sonovabitch at home, very much on edge. I'm using the Hooch for right now, until my Smoky Mountain order comes in. Be an SOB to us on the boards or in chat - your family did not make you dip! We are here to piss you off so you can take it out on us, not them.

I hope I can do this. I know I'll be better off for it. They say you need to want to quit. Well, I didn't want to, but I know I should. I have a 2 year old daughter and she deserves to have her father around and healthy. But I don't resent anyone for my quit - I never should've gotten here in the first place. It's my demon and I need to fight it myself. I hope I win.
Weak!!! More BS!!! None of wanted to quit - hell we all loved dipping, we are addicts! We just knew it was our time and we needed to grow up. You did it to your self but you don't need to quit alone.

The two hour drive I have to Boston tomorrow (I live in CT) will not be easy, but I hope that some straws, toothpicks, gum, and music will get me through it. I figure I've come this far, I don't want to start all over again.
The drive will be worse if you cave on the way because I will be in Boston along with a few other NE quitters to kick your ass. I live 45 min north of Boston.

Get an I can do attitude, stick to the site, get some phone numbers and you WILL make it. Ignor what we say and keep this attitude and you will fail. It is your choice!!!

FranPro ~ Day 553

man up Jeff...or face the wrath of Loot...you don't want that

i'm in the boston area and will kick that can out of your hand


btw, nicotine is actually in your system for up to 3+weeks. the body metabolizes nicotine in the first 24 hours into cotinine, which will stay in your system for a while. this is what they actually test for when you go for life insurance - why so many fail the test when they haven't smoked or dipped for a few days - you ain't clear yet....by i digress....

the psychological cravings are far worse than the physical...you're an addict, we all are and this is the worst thing to be addicted to so you better keep an attitude of "I will" not an "I hope". Be prepared to attack what triggers you with substitutes. I used to love the long car ride dip. I went to gum, beef jerky, seeds and toothpicks. I'm finally at being able to use nothing.

what's your word to you? you stepped in here..if you want to stay your word needs to be worth something. is it?

I've heard it many times on this site...don't be a sonovabitch at home, it's not their fault. You can be a sonovabitch here.

[Cook]

Jeff, great decision. And you're wrong man, you don't need to fight it yourself. We are all here to help you as long as you want to stay quit. The decision to quit can only be made by you but we are all here to walk together. know your triggers and how to avoid them, how to substitute and you can make it.

[visamoht]

Way to go Jeff. Day 5 for me. Keep going strong.
Stay quit

Welcome aboard Jeff! Congrats on 4 days! I am a newbie as well. 28 days for me. This site is great! Great advice on keeping the crap out of your mouth. Hang in there bro! It is hell but it does get easier. You are doing the right thing.
