Four days nic free is huge...Congrats. Now, you're just fighting the mental game. You versus the nic bitch? Nope. You AND US against the nic bitch. You can do this...and we're here to support you every fucking step of the way.

Don't think about tomorrow, next month, next year or forever. We'll worry about those when they get here. Just focus on right now...this five minutes...today. Anyone can quit for one day, right? Just post roll, keep your word, and repeat.

Read all you can on this site. You can do this, bro. Embrace the suck...that's your body healing.

Yes it does. Nicotine is evil is it not? Remember this moment. Never again for any reason. Never again.

You can do it.

Oh, by the way, I see you posted roll at 12:05 am. You gave us a full 23 hours and 55 min of quit today. Well done!

good to see the support. thanks all for taking the time to post on my "introduction."

i'll keep trying. everyday.
You posted roll. There is no "trying" today. You gave us all your word. If you're a man of your word, you won't be using nicotine today. It's just that simple. When you get a crave, just say "not today, I gave my word." Then get up tomorrow and post roll first thing.

If you worry about quitting for forever, it will only make things harder. The nic bitch goes on a rampage when you tell her y'all are done for good. Just tell her you're quit for today and focus minute by minute if you have to. Forever will work itself out if you post roll first thing every morning.

I read where you've been on this site for hours today. Good. I've never heard of anyone caving because they spent too much time here.

Good to be quit with you. Give a shout if there's anything we can do.

Just starting this process. 2 days in. Been dipping Copenhagen over a can-a-day for over 25 years.

I've tried to quit before, never with much success.

I have no idea how far I'll make it. Just want to make it to tomorrow.
Tried? Tried?

As Yoda once said..."Do or do not. There is no try."

You have to make up your mind, and commit completely to your quit. Leave no option on the table other than to quit. Get mad dog mean and gut it out.

Thus endeth the lesson.



ps - welcome aboard, and congrats on your decision to take back your life.

per-Welcome! I'm 13 days in. Honored to be Quit with you. My first few days I lived on this site. That's what it took to Quit so that's what I did. Post Roll Call and keep your word. It makes all the difference. Let me know if I can help. Today I posted Roll Call and today I am Quit. Peace

Tell you what...just make it till tonight. Go to bed...and then worry about tomorrow. There are times you will need to worry about th next 5 minutes...worry about them and then take what comes next. I dipped Cope, at least a can a day for more tahn 30 years. You can do this...I'm 800 days in today, but I still remember what you're going through now. YOU CAN do this. PM me if you need anything

you worry about making it until tomorrow, then when tomorrow becomes today, worry about tomorrow again...that's all you need to worry about!

you can do it, shout if you need anything, or just if you want to shout

Go to your group (August 2011) and post roll each morning. Start now with today as Day 2.
