Hello, all... My name is Roy
After 20 years addicted to nicotine, I am done being a slave. I started allowing nicotine to run my life about 20 years ago when I was in college and also in the Marine reserves, so it was everywhere around me. Grizzly LC Wintergreen has long been my poison of choice and it was easy to go through a can a day... sometimes more.
I have a great wife and kids that are supporting me, but this quit is not for them. It's for me.
More later...
Welcome Roy! Awesome that right off the bat you did two things right: 1.) Nailed roll call for the first time (some really struggle with the concept). 2.) Realize you MUST quit for you. The next week or so is going to suck, I won't lie ... but anything worth having is worth a fighting for, right? It's pretty damn simple here ... you Wake up, piss, post roll, and HONOR the promise you made to your brothers and yourself. Wake up repeat. Quit one day at a time. We live in the now as addicts, we don't worry about our quit tomorrow. Get to know your November brothers in quit ... get some digits ... weave some accountability. Tell every last person in your life that you've quit, and will not go back! Get something to satisfy the oral fixation ... that alone can cause some real issues with a quit.
Most of all ... know we are all here supporting your quit. Look around here, read all you can ... build your arsenal against nicotine. It's worth it ...
See you on roll tomorrow!
