Think about only today. Post roll. Read everything on this site. Repeat. The support here is unbelievable. I found the site just like you did. Stay close, embrace the suck and worry about tomorrow when it comes.

Forever is a bad target. Focus on today. I failed a million times trying to quit forever. I can quit today goddamn easy. Then I'll do it again tomorrow. Besides you'll die before forever gets here.

I don't see that you have posted roll.

This is our mission statement: index.php?showtopic=125

This is why we post roll: index.php?showtopic=120

This how we post roll: index.php?showtopic=50

This is where you post roll, March 2012: index.php?showtopic=5516

Glad you are here !! You have been given very solid advice already. I will re-state the fact you need to dump your can in the toilet and flush it. Then wash the can out so there are not flakes.

Then go around the house and find all your stashes and dump those too. Make sure you get to the March group and post your word. When you have that done get in your car and go to the store and get the following.

1. Water - PLENTY of it
2. Sunflower seeds
3. Gum
4. Hard Candy

When you get back home give your keys to your wife, kids, next door neighbor, whatever and plan on being inside. Get settled in around your computer and begin reading in this order.

1. The welcome center page... All of it
2. The Words of Wisdom page... All of it
3. The HOF speeches.... All of them
4. Pick a class ahead of you ( I would recommend Feb 09) and read it from the very first post.


That should get you through the weekend. Keep your mind busy and stay close to the site.

AWESOME decison !!!

Greg

There are no tricks or shortcuts. You just nut up and choose the be free. Don't think about tomorrow, next week or next year. We'll deal with them when they get here. You just post your promise that no matter what the fuck happens today, you will not put that goddam dirt in your lip. Then fight like hell to keep your promise. (I recommend staying on this site and reading all you can).

Embrace the suck...that is the feeling of recovery. Remember, you GET to go through it because you chose to quit. Other folks who didn't make the choice until it was too late have to die.

What are you prepared to do when the urges come? Plan now. Read the Kern Family story. His wife's posts may have saved my life as much as anything else. Come up with a plan now...while you can think.

You took the first step. We're with you for the rest. Congrats on a great choice!

Put on your hardhat and try not to lick the windows. It will be a rough weekend, but if you spend as much of that time here and in chat you will make it though.

One day at a Time!!!

Hello everyone! For some strange reason, I looked up how to stop dipping while I had a dip in my mouth. I came across this site and started reading some threads. All of the sudden, I spit my dip out and threw my can in the trash. I went to the bathroom down from my office and brushed my teeth 15 minutes ago. So I am brand new to this.

I really want to be done with this forever. The posts on this site are so powerful and sobering, I knew I wanted to be a part of it.

Can't wait to start marking my days from this afternoon and for the rest of my life.

Congrats on your decision...

now the first thing you have to do is go over and dig that can back out of the trash...

head to the toilet, dump the can in there and flush.

Next Learn these 3 steps:

1. Post Roll: index.php?showtopic=120 and http://www.killthecan.org/roll/
This is your promise to not use nicotine for Today

2. Honor that promise

3 Wake up tomorrow and repeat first thing in your day.

Once you have done this, head on over to March 2012: index.php?showtopic=5516st=0 and post roll.

Glad to be quit with you
