Thanks everyone for the support, its been about 24hrs since I have had a chew and the cravings have been horendous. But I Will get through it.
Nice brother! Today is my 8th day and because of your hard work, I'm promising you personally that I stand in solidarity and will not use tobacco of any kind for you. If you can do the same for us, I also promise it starts getting easier tomorrow and you'll never have to go through day 1 or day 2 again.

Pheasant - As I've told others who are in the suck like you, embrace it. Clutch it. Cling to it. Love it. Eat it. Taste it. Feel it. Let it mesmerize you. This is the battle you are waging my friend. Slavery vs. Freedom. Nic vs. No Nic. You made the choice to be free. Nic is pissed and will let you know. But, as you know by now, it will get easier. Take it day by day. Stay strong. Reach out the vets and your quit brothers and sisters if you need to. Just stay quit. For today. Tomorrow? F*** that. That is tomorrow. JT

Pheasant,
Be strong and hang in there. I am on day 5 and today was the first morning I woke up and did not crave a dip. It will still be a long road but I have decided that with the money I am saving on chew I am going to buy myself a new upland gun. Just a goal and a little extra to keep me on track. Since your name would suggest you hunt ditch chickens, maybe it would give you a little extra incentive to stay off the crap also.
By the way love coming back to SD to chase those roosters.

Nice work, Pheasant. Glad to be quit with you today. As the cravings come--which they will--stay tuned to this site and remember that you aren't the only one out there fighting this battle. Think about today and take this one day at a time. Much simpler that way.

good to be quit with you, p!

stay active on this site for the next 3 days (minimum). the first three days are the worst, but after that the physical battle is over. granted, the mental warfare can be just as bad, but the first three days have earned the name "the suck" for a good reason. read as much as you can here. get onto chat and meet some folks (upper right corner). post in october and get to know your quit brothers and sisters. get to know the vets. the more people you know, the more accountable you are and the more people you'll let down by caving. (and the more people that will be there for you in times of need!)

if you're here and you're serious about quitting for reals, you ain't going to cave. you've got to take control of this quit thang and own it. take it one day at a time... just keep your promise for 24 hours by any means necessary.

then do it again the next morning.

Stay quit... it is life or death and that is the undeniable truth.

Welcome Pheasant -

Click on the "Welcome Center" at the top of the page and read about posting roll and then head over to the October Quit Group and post up. That's your group. You will get a ton of support and help over there.

By posting roll you are giving your word you will not have any nicotine today. It will get better...

You can do this
