Long time lurker!!

[srans]

I'm not sure of much this morning

Let me tell you what you should be sure of today my friend. For over 48 hours you haven't went down to the corner store and spent your hard earned money on a can of poison. A filthy disgusting can of poison that you loved more than yourself, family and friends.

You can be sure that for the first time in years your brain is healing and getting the proper amount of oxygen that it requires to be healthy and function properly. You can be sure that your blood pressure is dropping and will continue to drop as you heart begins to recover and work normally.

You can be sure that you will win this battle today because you made a promise to yourself, family, friends and us not to use today. You can be sure that each day you add a +1 you will begin to gain control of this addiction and take back what belongs to you. Keep it up bro,, your winning!!! Glad to be quit with you.

You are getting this full immersion into the program. Cornerstone is roll, odaat, accountability brotherhood success. These are just not words they are the formula. Keep drinking the kool-aid brother. Day 3 is a mini milestone the withdrawal process is decreasing and now its a mental game now is the time you need to sprout your 3 rd ball. Keep close to the site

[worktowin]

Day 3 is in the books! Keep fighting Kelly - you are really inspiring a lot of us with how you are fighting this battle. Your days of lurking have prepared you well with strategy, as you are using the resources on here to the fullest.

Keep reaching out if we can help, but know that we are all cheering you on today. And, while it seems hard to believe right now, better days really are ahead. Freedom is yours, brother...

By the way - you are correct, this site does rock. But day 3 is here because if you. Because you are a man of integrity and if your word. And because you want to live and not be chained to an addiction. This site is a guide, but you get the credit and the reward.

Update:

Because of how this site rocks and the members are the baddest mofo's in all the Land, Day 3 is upon me.

I'm not sure of much this morning; except today I say no to the bitch!!!!!

[Mike from AB]

Welcome RS  all the best to you. Wow you're really working this site  thread to fight through the first couple days, way to go bro! As you're finding out this is hard, maybe harder than you thought, it was for me, but I see you've got more support than you probably thought you'd find too, which is the awesome part of this site! As always, PM away if you want another number.

Update: Quit Log Day 2.

What a bitch today was.

Today really knocked my dick in the dirt. I can't even describe how hard it was to resist the can. I have made it this far because ya'll are some badass mofo's!!!!!!

I read a lot of stories today and learned even more bout this poison and the addiction.
I find myself wanting to look forward but I know that is a trap and that I just need worry bout today.

I will.be signed up on roll call early tmrw morning cause I work and I am signing up cause my life depends on it!!

Roughshod78 Day2!! Jan2014

Dude. The beginning sucks. No doubt about it. But if it didn't get better I would been outta here long ago. But it does get better. I PROMISE.

Grind, scratch, claw, fight, rage, slam your balls in a door. Whatever it fucking takes. You are re-wiring you're brain. It's not an easy thing to do.

But remember this...

You are re-wiring it back to the way it is supposed to be. The way you came into this world. You didn't come into this world suckling on nicotine. Somewhere along the way you fucked your shit up, we all did.

What a shame it would be if you were taken early from this earth beacause you gave up and lost the fight to a posionous plant.

Some d bag who smokes like a chimney, said to me when I first quit, "dude, you could get hit by a bus tomorrow and die. Why torture yourself"?

At first I was like "Damn, hes right". Then I was like wait a minute here, they teach you to look both ways before you cross the street in elementary school, and how many people do I know who have been killed by getting hit by a bus???? That's right ZERO. How many do I know who have been killed by cancer from nicotine addiction? Too many to count, some that should still be here today to see the man I've become and to meet their grandchildren.

I know this sucks and I know you will probably sleep very little tonight, but just remember you are fighting the good fight and doing the right thing. Quitting this shit it the most important thing you will ever do in your life. It will probably be the hardest too.

Time to make a fucking stand bro. Time to reach deep and find some strength you might not even know you have. You don't have to do it alone though. We are here to help. Lean on ie when you are weak, yell at us when you are raging, call me a fucking asshole once a day if you wish.

Whatever you do...Don't give up.

Roughshod78 Day2!! Jan2014

Brother... That mindset is what it takes. I like what I am seeing from you. You are a fighter! ODAAT!

But know this... Huge victory today! You won today. You won yesterday. That tells me you can wake up tomorrow and win tomorrow. You battled like a badass and that is what it takes. Hand to hand combat is required at this stage of the game! You can do this!

I will see you tomorrow at roll brother! I will be quitting with you tomorrow! Looking forward to it!

Thanks for the help men!! Doing much better( this 10 seconds.)

I'll be leaving workin an hour and heading to another baseball game.
Being around the kids helps with motivation!!  'archer'

I usually pick a HOF speech to read. Then track down that person's intro and read that. So many wonderful quit stories on this site. We all quit the same. One day at a time. Great job on day 2 bro.

Hey Roughshod,

Great job man your doing it! Like KC said, live in the forums as much as you can right now. HOF speeches seem so far removed from how you feel right now, but track down their Intro thread and start at the first post. We all pushed through the suck like you are now and came out the other side.

Keep it up, you got this!

Can somebody throw up some links to some kick ass motivation. I'm stuck in the mire of the suck!! 'bang head'

Go to google images and search "oral cancer", "lip cancer", and "tongue cancer".

Scared me to freaking death!!!

Find anything you can about nicotine and addiction. Began arming yourself with knowledge. The information is not hard to find. The pictures are great motivation also. There is a lot of information on this site. Start digging around. Fighting this enemy becomes easier when you learn it. Hof speeches and other intros will also help. Read my hof speech in my signature line.

It will suck until it don't and then it won't (sM). You got this kelly. Break it down if you have to. One second at a time.

Have you read the Kern's story? Where his daughters wrote letters to him after he died? If not... read it.

"I know you're tired, I know you're hurtin' ... I wish I could say something that's classy and inspirational ... but it wouldn't be our style. Pain heals, chicks dig scars ... glory lasts forever."

Ok, now for real, the SUCK IS YOUR MOTIVATION. That awful feeling is you winning. It is miserable so that you can store it in your memory banks and never want to live through it again.
IT is you rewiring your brain to work the way it is supposed to, without nicotine.
Embrace the suck.
