Is he quit?
5 posts, all in his intro. No post in Sept 14. Guess he's not ready.
He's probably still chewing nicotine gum and brooding over terse exclusionary responses. Hopefully he comes around. We will see.

Hey sugar. AJ is right...you can't be active in other parts of this site if you are using gum. But you are more than welcome to post in your intro. And your intro only. You can read all you want.

If the doc doc put you on a plan...fine, tell us what the plan is and tell us when Day 1 is. Then follow your program and post your Day 1 when you are supposed to. But...we both know you'll think.of a million reasons why Day 1 ain't such a good Day 1 don't we?

Listen...we typically promote cold turkey. Why prolong the inevitable? You are going to go through he'll at some point right? All you are doing is allowing the anxiety to build. You are here for a reason. Take advantage of your positive mojo...go flush your shit..and post Day 1 in Sept 14.

Or follow your program. No skin off LOOTs teeth either way. Welcome to the site. Drink the Kool aide. We know clean. We can help you be clean. We would just prefer you get started today. Ball is in your court snowflake.

You've got this, HTG. Gotta quit it all bro, but you can.

And yes, it totally sucks. lol. But after a few days, the "fog" (as most of us have come to call it) lifts a little and gets better. I'm on day 11. I feel worlds better than I ever did when I was dipping. And I could kill a can in 2 good dips. Often. So I feel your pain.

This is sort of the "Marine Corps" of quitting, I've heard it said. I believe it. It's hard a first, but I swear you'll be better for it.

Now that's what I'm talking about!

I'm sorry, but ya'll know how irritable you get when you quit.

Seeing that first response just sent chills down my spine. I spill my heart out and i get nothing but a terse exclusionary response.

I understand ya'lls philosophy and i"ll take it to heart. Thank you for your support.
Sometimes you need some cold water in the face to see the reality of it.

You jump in... We're all here for you.
Well, it’s one louder, isn’t it? It’s not ten.

claws, thank you for being civil. I appreciate that.

I understand where youre coming from totally. thank you.

I'm sure i could go without the gum, so I'll try that out. I think if i can go without 3 tins a day....i can go without the minimal nicotine in gum.
There is no try. Only do. We all did it. You can do it. You are no more of an addict than tHevrest of us. Flush that shitbandbget started.

We don't support addiction here...

We support Quit.

Why not join us? Now. Weaning only prolongs the pain of withdrawal and at some point you have to give it up entirely anyway to classify yourself as "quit".

Do it now. It's a great time to be real about it.

We'll give you all the support you need once you quit. We don't try and hope and maybe around here. We just quit all forms of nicotine.

I was seriously considering it.

Until dude up there decided to be the world's largest Johnson about it.

I'm truly sorry for going about things as prescribed by my MD. But, nah, you know best brother.

'Finger'

Maybe Ill come back again when I'm done with the gum. But, hey, I dont know why I would when this is what ya'll consider a supportive community.
Oh jeez. Your right. We know jack shit about anything. Fuck this site.
Your MD is prescribing nicotine to fix a nicotine addiction. Think about that for a minute.
