3 weeks solo is bad ass, glad to see you join us and make it easier with folks who are going through the same thing.

Hopefully I did it right....just posted roll to celebrate 3 weeks nicotine free

Way to go, it looks right! Quitting is very difficult and nicotine will try to trick you back into her arms in many many cunning ways. The way to beat that is by engaging your quit by posting roll everyday. Roll is our promise to remain nicotine free for that one single day. make your promise tomorrow morning when you wake up and assuming you're a man who honors his word, you'll have 22 days of freedom to celebrate.

Damn proud to be quit with you today! Now own your quit, it's yours! You have all the tools you need, utilize them!

I've been at this by myself since 4/27. 2 can a week addict since I was 14 (31 year addiction). The last time I tried to quit was 10 years ago and it was a dismal failure. 4 or 5 months on nicotine gum got me nowhere except backinto the can. When I started thinking about quitting again I read everything I could about about quitting so I could plan. I knew cold turkey had to be the only way out. So far it has gone well - the craves haven't been too bad after the first 3 or 4 days. My main problem is sleep....I'm exhausted at the end of the day but am wide awake after 5 hours sleep no matter how hard I push myself all day. Craves have been a little more "nagging" the last couple days, which brought me here. I was worried that I've been doing this long enough that the "new has worn off" and my mind (the addicted part) is trying to play games with me to entice me back into the can. I thought maybe reading about those brand new quitters....what a bitch it is to those first few days, would make me remember how hard fought these 2 plus weeks were. I never want to have to start that quit again. I didn't come here to write a book honestly. Was just saying hi.

Gonna need to do more than say Hi.....
Let's quit thinking about it and let's put our quit into action.
We do that here by not thinking but by learning all we can and by posting roll every morning.
Directions are on the main page.

Congrats on a great decision to quit.
Really hard to do it alone.
Just quit today. Then repeat just today.

Control now.... You can't control yesterday or tomorrow.

I quit with you today.

Like my brother rawls said, come on in, we're all waiting, 2 weeks is awesome by yourself! It's a whole lot easier with help, so whatcha waiting on? Just an addict trying to help another addict! Don't waste your 2 weeks! I quit with you today!

If you're serious about keeping Your day count moving forward, then this site can/will save Your life...you just gotta allow it.
Come on in, the water is fine.

Two weeks. Alone. You guys are sadists.

I posted Day 1 whimpering like a bitch on here.

I'm glad you're cold turkey. Go post up in August whatever day you're quit (day 1 would be the first day you quit all nicotine).

Welcome to the site . .
