Quote from: Grady
Man it's day #4 and I pray that all that shit is out of my body. Wow, you talk about not only the mind games but physically the poison wasn't leaving without a fight. I feel pretty darn good this morning. Thank God for Jakes. That after dinner time and first thing in the morning time, is the SOB.

I say to all my fellow addicts, thank you. It's going to be a great day, free from that shit.
Take a step out your door today and take a good look around. You'll see everything differently. Take a look at the world without nicotine desensitizing your feelings and blurring your vision. After a year of quit i still look around in disbelief. I feel different, see different, act different. There is nothing about us the poison doesn't affect. Suck in that dignity and feel that freedom!

You have a lot of repairs that will take place. You have a new Grady to build. The old Grady is screwed up pretty bad. The new Grady will take some time to build, but he's worth it.

There is a door you need to get to. Sharpen those tools, settle in and make your way to the door. I can't tell you how far the door is or how long it will take to get there, but I can tell you it's worth every step. We're here to help you make it, and make it you will. Failure is not an option!!
Grady,
Adding to what srans is saying....
There is a brave new world out there without nicotine. Now that you are done with dip, it's time to start replacing the nic bitch with other more valuable things in your life. You will suddenly realize that you have all sorts of free time. And the ability and desire to start spending that time on the things in your life that really matter. I can honestly say my marriage got better, my work environment got better, and my enjoyment of my hobbies got better. Why? Well I don't have to think about increasing my cancer risk because I don't have a dip in. And if I don't have a dip in, then I'm not jones'in for the time when I would put one in. So, the vicious cycle of dip...do I dip?...should I dip?...what if I dip?...well, I kinda want a dip...oh hell I'll just have one dip...is all bullshit and gone. Enjoy building your new life brother. It is nothing short of life saving. I quit with you today.

Funny how I remember srans telling me to do the same thing a little while back... I took his advice and I suggest you take it as well.

Get outside and look around. Soak it in. This is a big day in your life! Go for a walk and remember this day. You are free today. Free from the slavery brought on by the nic B. And that my friend is priceless!

The poison sucks. I hate it. I hated it this morning, I hated it at noon, I hated it at supper and I hate it tonight. I enjoy hating it so much I'm going to wake up tomorrow and start over hating it. I quit with anyone that wants to hate it with me.

Sam  srans, thanks for the words of advice. Day #3 and I'm alive, kickin and QUIT! srans, trust me when I say I know quite a bit about addiction (never enough though) I'm a recovering alky so that knowledge that I've gained from the AA program, is really helping me through this bullshit addiction. The serenity prayer helps.
Today is a new day and I'm nic free!
Don't forget to make that promise today my friend. Take caving completely off the table. Quit with you today.
You've got this Grady! You can do it and it will get better. Feed on your hatred of the ugly lying nic whore. Breath deep and relax, then rage at the bitch.
Good to meet you in chat.
Quit on, bro.

Quit with you today Grady! You can do this - no excuses!
^^^^^^......it does/will get better incrementally and ODAAT! You hang tough through this, read what srans wrote above...that shitty feeling is the poison leaving your body, it is healing in progress. Get to the welcome center and read. Read how the bitch tricks your mind into feeling good, giving you the perception that everything is better with a packed lip. IT IS A LIE and right now she is trying to yell it in your ear. This is you taking back your freedom and she is pissed so you get pissed right back! Pissed that you fell into this trap, pissed that big tobacco peddles this shit to you to our children and knows it is selling death, and pissed that your addiction is trying to keep you. Screw that, fight the Bitch!

Trust me 22 they're not funny and they're NOT going to get better. Quit on. Get pissed off at nic, stay pissed off and hold on because it's a fuck of a ride!
Everything will get better my friend. Yea, for a minute or two it will suck, but it's worth every second. Breathe in that dignity you've gained back this day. Suck in that freedom your taking back.

Began sharpening your tools. Knowledge on nicotine/addiction will go a long ways. You'll be surprised at how much a little knowledge will help. There is a vast amount of knowledge on this site. Start reading and replacing the lies with the truth. Knowledge is power.

Water, water and water. Flush the poison out. 72 hours and then it becomes mental. You got this man. One day at a time. If you have to take it one minute/second at a time. Time feels as though it slows down for a little while but in time you will kick yourself right in the a@@ for ever putting the poison in your pie hole. Quit with you today.
