Well done on the comma!
There are no circumstances in which using nicotine will improve the outcome.

Day 445

I have been fighting the complacency bug for a while now so I came back to where it all started to get centered. It always does me some good to reread and remember the struggles and victories(I wish I had posted in here daily). I guess I am just rambling but my point is this- write an introduction and update it often. It will help you more than you can imagine.

Congrats on 1 year Patrick.

Thank you for inspiring me to push forward and start posting roll. Without you and people like you on this site we all would fail.


Enjoy your day and your continued quit.



I quit with you brother!

RIP My Brother!

Patrick, proud as hell to call you my brother in quit this past year. You may not know this but you have played a crucial part in my own quit and the quit of many Misfits and others at KTC. Proud to quit with you today!

Quote from: PatrickG
My quit is a lot different at one year than I thought it would be. I told myself I would quit like hell for one year, give it all I had and ride out in a blaze of glory.
I did it! I have gone 365 days at 100%, something I am very proud of. Somewhere in the mid 200s I realized that there was no need in leaving at one year. As a matter of fact now that I am here it seems pretty stupid to set arbitrary finish lines.
All I know is I will be here tomorrow morning posting 366. I couldn't have gotten here without the help of many bad ass quitters on this site. Thanks for everything guys and gals.
Congrats on your 1 year quit Patrick!

Patrick,
Welcome to the site. We're lucky to have access to such a supportive group. I'm a new quitter myself and am a little bit ahead of you on the quit (19 days). Things are getting better day by day. Hang in there and if you need any support send me a pm.

Kize
Nice job reaching out Kize! Although, Patrick has been quit for over 200 days, but still, way to reach out when a brother needs help!
Classic...... Just a CLASSIC!

GOD I love this place. Just reeks of quit.

Way to get more involved. Duck

You were not created to enjoy tobacco.
You were however created to enjoy his creation....Girls, football, bbq, cold ones, hunting, ducks ect ect......
I quit with you today Patrick.

Rawls 287
You got that right Rawls! The quit is strong around here.

Pab- I cant wait to watch the Tide roll in Dallas Saturday night.

Kize-man thanks for the support. I don't care if I'm on day 217 or 17 it always feels good to have someone in your corner. PM is in your inbox.

I still use the fake while I am at work, but like candoit said I need to make sure I have some with me at all times just in case.

The cravings don't come on very often but at times can still be pretty intense. Yesterday I took off work to take my son to the doctor and didn't have any fake with me. I stopped at walmart to get some smokey mtn. but they were out. My eyes immediately went to the skoal rack. I have to admit that I was tempted for a second or two but I doubled back and found a bag of seeds and rolled on.

I don't know if it gets easier or the cravings become less intense but I do know that I wouldn't trade the last 217 days for anything.
