The time has come for me to finally kick this habit. I have tried many of times in the past, oh boy do I have stories, but I have never used a "support group" before nor have I tried cold turkey. I have been reading this site a lot over the past few months and the stories are great to read. The one time I really thought I was "done" was one late night I had a dip in and it was the day Stuart Scott from ESPN died. They replayed his ESPY speech when he had cancer and was in tough shape. He called his girls on stage and gave them a kiss, man did that hit me..I actually got up from the couch in tears grabbed my can and flushed it down the toilet. Said I was done...Well 2 weeks later I bought another can...I was so ashamed of myself I can't even explain it...I signed up a few days ago to this site and within minutes I was PM'd by a moderator and he offered assistance! Now that's a community I want to be part of...My quit day is tomorrow and I will be up in the morning posting roll before hitting the field to hunt this great state of ND....I am ready and with the help of all you great folks I pray this is the time!
Troy-
Why not today? I am not trying to talk you into anything but planning to quit tomorrow never really works out well. Are you going to romance your addiction today...make sweet sweet love to your open tin?
The problem is that that tin does in fact not love you back, that tin contains an addictive little weed that causes addiction, cancer, tooth loss, gum disease, stomach ulcers, chemical dependency, and a host of other issues. You could choose to quit right now and be a day ahead of all of the people making a new year's resolution.
one day, 24 hours, 1,440 minutes, 86,400 seconds ahead of everyone else plus maybe one whole tin.
My advice quit right now, dump all remaining cans in the toilet and piss on them, then flush and repeat tomorrow when you find those rogue independent cans.
