Bro... Couldn't be more proud of you! I rode your ass pretty hard when you joined and set yourself a quit date a few weeks after the fact.

Didn't think you'd get there.

And now... Here we are. 365 days of quit. Glad as hell you proved me wrong! Well done dude... Well done!
Congrats on 1 year! Truly bad ass!

I'm wide awake. 3:31 am. Alone in the living room. Tears in my eyes. Postn roll. And not believing where I am today. I dipped for 35 freakn years !!! I gave up on beating this addiction. The shame and embarrassment, I had just given in to it. The loss of dignity and pride ?!?! Finally figured I'd be like my Dad and be a nic addict until they put my coffin clothes on me. Thank you Stacy Clark, Musicluva, for posting on FB that you were 5 years Quit and sharing KTC with me. If you look at my join date, it's around 2 years before my Quit date. Took this dumb ass that long to post a Day 1. Taking my mother in law home to South Dakota last summer, seeing her toes becoming black from lack of circulation, and her denying that smoking had anything to do with it, pushed me off my own denial cliff and got me to realize the truth. I was dying just like her. And that I wanted desperately to live.

Here I am. Now I stand on my own 2 feet a FREE MAN with so many Quit bother and sister friends that its just simply amazing. It's totally unreal. But it actually is real. Wow. Thank you to each and everyone of you that I've walked with on this journey. Simply too many now at this point to mention. I just simply don't have the words to describe what this day means to me. But as you all well know, I didn't get here on my own, I'm here in this place because of you. And like Doc says, it's a debt I can't repay. :-)
Congrats brother! You repay that debt every day, just by being here and being you. Quitting strong with you today G!

Quote from: mayo
Hello fellow addicts and quitters. This is Day 1 of my quit. I am a biologist living in West Texas. I had been quit for 7 years. Over a year ago I put a dip in. Just one. Just for old times sake. Just because the outside environment and work called for a simple single dip, and that would be it. Now, daily for over a year. All. Over. Again.

Before the 7 yrs of my successful quit, I had been dipping for well over a decade. High School, peers, and baseball. That kid grew into a man, and was still dipping. Full-blown addict.

My first quit was terribly hard. Physically and mentally; as I had basically grown up, had developed into an adult with nicotine and dipping hardwired into my brain and body.

I now need to do it all over again. I now will do it all over again. A bit pissed at myself for having to start over. I am also understanding.

I will find out if this quit differs from my first quit.

Anyways, another and now defunct (I believe) website and forum helped me way back then. It is my hope that the same type forum and community will be just as helpful.

I choose not to be a slave.

Thank you for having me, brothers and sisters.

Let us all live free.

So, here. I. go....

Nice intro, Mayo. You probably should start your own though and track your quit there, as opposed to adding it on to G-Dubs.

I believe you just go to intros and hit the "new topic" button.

Quit on...
I seen it all now! Man! Maybe someone should check Gdub's IP to make sure......
Bahaha. I think our west Texas biologist may be smoking nic free ciga-weed. Lol
Countin' it down now...can I say 2..1..Liftoffffffffffffffffff!!!!! OK,,, not yet but soon!!!!!
It is fricken amazing to think about it! I'm still ODAAT though. My money was on you brother the whole way! Proud to quit another day with you GW.
