Sonsabitches!

So as I was leaving the driveway to hit the streets for a nice lunchtime run I look down and I see a busted up can of Skoal Cherry on the road. The lid was a few inches from the can and I can see chew inside the body of the can. I thought that was pretty awesome. So I went out on my run and decided that the only course of action that I can take it to make sure that I disperse this shit by kicking it around the road.

I know that I am capable of doing some pretty weak shit in order to get a nic fix. I am pretty sure that I am not going to go out and lick the fucking road though; but to be safe I knocked that shit all over the place...

I QUIT TODAY.

Wow- today is suck. Having a hard time distracting my thoughts from the shit. I am fidgity; I am going to go out for a run at lunch time; running has always been my moment of Zen- the time where I am "in the present". I really need that mental dump right now.

This fucking conference call is killing me! It was supposed to be an hour and here I am 1 hour and 50 minutes later with no end in sight!

Stay Quit!
Exercising always takes the edge for me as well. Keep it up bro! Nobody needs Nic...

habit is what keeps you going.

I woke up feeling more determined than I felt yesterday. I had a major craving on my drive into work so a grabbed an Atomic Fireball. It helped get me through it. Once I got to work I logged into KTC, Posted Roll, and came to my thread. I never really believed much in outside support so I was really amazed by my reaction reading the posts made to me from fellow quitters.

You guys are awesome! Thank you for quitting with me today. I quit with all of you quitters today.

Dougie I saw you posted that you plan to be on this site a lot in a fellow quitters thread, first awesome advice, second bad ass decision that will fortify your quit. I quit with you.

This is my official QUIT thread. I plan on posting daily thoughts and whatever other random shit drops out of my head.

I am also going to keep this link here

http://classic.caringbridge.org/mn/tomkern/

I pictured my family going through this pain when I was reading it; I will read it everyday. I will read it every time that selfish self-destructive voice comes on telling me all of my wonderful lies that I love to tell myself.

I am pretty sure that I didnt do a work related thing at all today! I guess there is always tomorrow for that shit; today I quit.
Yeah bro. If you ever get an urge to dip read that story. I quit with you today.

Quit Day 05/29/2013-

I figured today would be one of the hardest days. It is. I am also away from home which makes caving easier since I wont have to make up some lame ass excuse to go out for something. I am not going to give in today though, I am going to enjoy my sunflower seeds, jolly ranchers, and spearmint gum.
I smell something.
I just finished reading Tom and Jenny's story; I am positive that I wont be caving today. All I could think of was my wife, my daughter, and my sons having to go through the same thing. One day at time.
Hmmmm. Keep reading. I suggest starting with the Welcome Center then posting roll if you are serious.
I posted roll- naturally I did it wrong! GO ME!
Ya got your Day 3 posted Dougie...way to go. Keep on reading and use this site to your advantage....

Shouldn't your Day be Day 6 though? When was yer quit date?
Sharksy is one ciphering mo-fo. Yep, if the last time you had ANY form of nicotine in your body was 5.29.13, then yea, welcome to day 6. FYI, everyone is different as to what is the "hardest" day(s). I had 24 or so very hard hours that added up to one day, but they were spread over about two months. Most of the time I dealt with the situation by texting obscenities to quit brothers, or posting psychotic rants in my quit group. Fake dip and frequent masturbation helped, also.

The good news is that you will never have to go through a day like this again, unless you choose to cave. Congrats on day 6 brother. keep the faith.
When I looked at the calendar on MS Outlook; to see what the date was Saturday I looked at the bottom which would actually be the last weekend of June. So my Actual QUIT day is June 1st!

Guess I am feeling a little foggy right now!

Thanks All!
That is awesome!!! Congrats...and don't worry, you'll regain the ability to read calendars before you know it.
