The way I see it your on day 4. There is some quitting going on here.

Here is what you need to do. Buy you a ticket and jump on the next plain out to the Himalayas. There is a mountain there called Mount Everest. You've heard of this right?

Climb that mountain brother. All the way to to the top!! You might need a couple oxygen tanks, the air is quite thin up there I hear. I've personally never made this journey, but this is not about me. When you get to the top breathe in that freedom friend. Take a good look at the world without nicotine running through your blood, desensitizing your feelings and blurring your vision. You are now nicotine free. Freedom,, feel it, taste it and smell it.

Now,,, I understand that Mount Everest may be a little out of the question. If you can't make the trip just walk outside your front door,, it will do. The point is start noticing life without the poison. We weren't meant to be lead around by a can of dirt. Never again for any reason. I'm quit with you today.

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.

Read and re-read what Diesel said and point your head in the direction of that way of thinking. Post roll every morning, no nic for any reason, repeat.

"Then I fell off the wagon. I'm not totally sure how or why. I just did it cause I wanted to I guess."

Breaking free of addiction is all about exerting free will. Choosing to not cave in to your addiction is hardly different than choosing not to drink a cup of antifreeze, except that your addicted brain loves nicotine and will do its f'n damndest to try and rationalize "just one chew". Be on the lookout for the head games, and make the choice to win.

PS Eat all the damn chocolate you want and definitely pat yourself on the back. This shit is simple, but it sure isn't easy. [/QUOTE]
The energy I felt from the verbal bitch slap diesel gave was invigorating. A reminder that anything short of fanatic devotion to the quit will keep you quit. I'm looking on the forum today and seeing a lot of what I was doing (bemoaning my predicament) being met with less than a bitch slap. Then someone slapped. IT was great. That's what we all need from time to time.

Yesterday no matter where I looked in town I was not able to find the fake stuff. Any kind whatsoever. I knew they sold it in the smoke shop but wanted to avoid going there. Finally with diesels words ringing in my ears went into the poison factory and left with nothing but mint leaves in a can. I felt powerful. It was a risky move, borderline stupid. Maybe just stupid. but I took it and was rewarded not with fake chew but with the knowledge of knowing how much will power I have and how to control this bad boy. Once again. Thanks diesel.

I want to be free from addiction.
Welcome Pat! This place will help save your life if you will let it.
First, the bad news. You will always be an addict. That means you will not be able to be a casual user of nicotine. Ever. I assume that is what you want, to be quit forever right? The good news is you don't have to be a slave to your addict thoughts and behaviors. You can be quit if you follow the way it is done here and put in the effort. It does take effort, there is no magic pill to defeating your addiction. Read everything you can in the Welcome Center. PM me if I can help.
You can do this!
That is what I want. I feel most ashamed about having ever started this bullshit because now I know I have live with it forever. It kills me inside. and now that day two is in full effect I want to pull the very teeth I am trying to save out and throw them at people who don't understand. I have a splitting head ache and know that it won't go away for a long time. I'm starting to let it out on you guys here. Is there a specific place for screaming at people on this forum?
Quit worrying so damn much about being an "addict" and feeling sorry for yourself for starting in the first place.

I'm a nic addict. Big fucking deal. I'm about 10,000 other things too. I don't sign my name then throw a #addict after it.

All that shit doesn't matter right now. The past is the past. You can't do shit to change it so stop focusing on it. Focus on TODAY. FUCK tomorrow and FUCK yesterday.

Post roll. Promise to quit for the day, then wake up the next day and do it again. Sounds easy, but of course its not, but it does GET easier. I promise you that. You just gotta plant your feet in the ground, decide you really want this, and get the ball rolling.

Time to take a stand. Grow some balls and get your freedom back.

You want a place to scream at people? Come at me right here bro. I gotta tell ya, I'm kind of getting this pussy ass, "woe is me, this is too hard, I was just born and addict" vibe coming from you.

Hope I'm wrong.
Diesel,

I have little bitch tendencies, you're right. The admitting of the full scale of my problem is new for me so I am just trying to work through it. Sobriety is an old concept I am re-discovering. I'm an academic, we talk about shit to an irritating degree. I know because I started to cut down trees and build fences for a living and wanted to punch myself in the face for over thinking it.

In the end I will climb mountains and cross deserts to stay quit. Don't mistake my emotional ramblings to be a sign of my immanent failure. I will wrap a noose around this nic-bitches neck and string it up for all to see and watch the crows pull out its eyes and tongue as it pleads for me to use over and over again. The part of me that bitched the most was the part that wouldn't quit and stay quit. Fuck that bulshit.

It's a pleasure to be quit with you today. Thanks for the slap.
Sounds good. Now post roll and walk the walk.

Lift that head up. Smile,,,, your doing it bro. One day at a time and you can have back a lot of what the poison has stolen.

What your feeling is one of the important parts of quitting Funk. Remember how shitty you feel, embrace the suckage, then point your anger and frustration right back where it belongs.....at that poison in the can. Your feeling like this because you are a slave to cancer causing, highly addictive substance that is slowly taking your money, your time and your health.

However you are here, posting roll and getting your quit legs under you one day at a time. Hang in there, we've all been through it and I promise it gets better. You will never, ever regret a day spent quit and you never have to go through the suck again if keep going.

Proud to quit with you today!
Thanks man. Proud to be quite here today. And look forward to tomorrow. Made it through the fair with three little girls that my wife and had to chase around all day with out any nicotine. Dip triggers all over the place and I did not succumb. I feel like patting myself on the back. Now I'm going to eat some chocolate.

Pat, you are an addict and you have never quit before; rather, you took a break... God bless you that you are wise enough after a few years of slavery to want to break free! You need to read alot of the info that KTC has to offer. The WELCOME CENTER tab at the top left of your screen is the best place to start. We are a nicotine free group here so dump your tins and pitch your patches, gum, lozenges, e-pipes, etc. and quit using nicotine right now! I want you to educate yourself before you end up being a slave for a couple of decades... PM me if you need anything.
Pat like B-loMatt said you never quit before. I had dozens of pauses over 4 decades, even one that lasted 3 years. Recognizing that you are an addict is the most important thing for you to recognize. Not only that but you always will be a addict. You can never have just one and you can never let your guard down. Read all you can and stay close the site getting to know your quit brothers and sisters. The brotherhood will save your life.
That is the thing that i have come to realize about myself in the last couple weeks. I am an addict. Pure and simple despite the intricacies. It's in my personality and my brain make up. My brother has been falling hard and fast down the meth road and combining that with all the Russel Brand interviews that I have been watching I see that i just want to be addicted to something. For me it is bigger than just nicotine, though that is the most prevalent of my fixes. I used to smoke weed daily. I go back and forth between using energy drinks daily. I go through phases where I can't take enough vitamin supplements to save my life and end up feeling like shit. I even flirt with prescription pills from time to time. Never getting helplessly hooked on any of them but wanting to. Thus becoming helpless. I am trying to come to terms with what seems to be the fact: once you are an addict you are never not an addict, you just stop using.

Pat, you are an addict and you have never quit before; rather, you took a break... God bless you that you are wise enough after a few years of slavery to want to break free! You need to read alot of the info that KTC has to offer. The WELCOME CENTER tab at the top left of your screen is the best place to start. We are a nicotine free group here so dump your tins and pitch your patches, gum, lozenges, e-pipes, etc. and quit using nicotine right now! I want you to educate yourself before you end up being a slave for a couple of decades... PM me if you need anything.
Pat like B-loMatt said you never quit before. I had dozens of pauses over 4 decades, even one that lasted 3 years. Recognizing that you are an addict is the most important thing for you to recognize. Not only that but you always will be a addict. You can never have just one and you can never let your guard down. Read all you can and stay close the site getting to know your quit brothers and sisters. The brotherhood will save your life.
