That's what's happening in my head.
I'm a 26 year addict. At one point, two cans a day. I'm done. I tried the patch, the gum, and the lozenges, and made some slimy snake oil salesmen wealthy through it all. Time for the cold hard turkey. It's time to be a new man.
Welcome. I gave up a 28 year cope habit 131 days ago myself....had tried it all...can say with absolute certainty....this site will work.
Post Roll in the August group and introduce yourself. Posting roll is very serious..you are looking me and everyone else in the eye and giving us your word that you will not under any circumstances dip TODAY. Get in the habit of posting first thing in the morning...takes the pressure off because Nic is no longer an option for that day.
Read everything, get involved, get a plan which includes some phone numbers to call prior to caving and asking permission. This will work.
Like your name but don't blow up at your family...they didn't do this, you did. If you need to blow up....this site is fair game....especially fun to pick on 40 and our resident homosexual...Jpine.
PM me and i wll give you my number....brace yourself, strap in tight...first 3 days suck...no gettin around it.....but when you get thru them, you will begin taking the control back from the nic bitch whose ass you have kissed for 26 years.
Now...lets do this....
Where is that Roll Call deal? You'll have to forgive my internet ignorance, as I'm not much of a community person, online or otherwise.
And about my name, well, I'm not holding Mrs. Diesel or the critters accountable for my stupidity. I happen to be a diesel truck and equipment wrench, and the Atomic part is playing on my signature line, and the environment where I exercise my profession.
I got to this point because I was a triple secret dipping ninja-sith, and having been busted for the third time telling my wife the same lie. "No honey, I'm not dipping anymore." For her, dipping wasn't the issue, I had done it since age 12 and was doing it when we got married. I decided to quit, then caved. Three times. The lie is what put the stress on our marriage, and upon seeking some help, I was directed here. I will probably vent on y'all and practice all my Marine Corps words I haven't used in a while if that's okay.
I do fit the stereotype. Redneck, hillbilly Southern White trash man with a wad in his lip, and I'll rip the seeds off of anyone accusing me of being something else. :D
I will be here everyday, with the possible exception of the weekends, as my home computer is having a stroke right now, and I'm trying to avoid having one while paying to have it fixed.
