Well, here I go ...

[Vguy]

Welcome Dan! 52 days ago, I was where you are. I wanted to add to all the good advice in here by telling you to READ, READ, READ this site. Read the links, read the introductions, go back to a group quit page from three years ago and read. What you'll find are a ton of people very much like you who are or have been going through the same things you are going through. That alone got my through the tough times early on.
Once you get your first few days under your belt, post roll as a supporter in another group or in the next month's quit. Giving back and helping newbies makes your quit stronger and is the currency you use to pay for your time here.

Head's up....weekends suck at first...lots of free time and lots of triggers. Realize it, plan for it, share what you're feeling with your wife so she can see how she can help you, and EMBRACE THE SUCK till you don't have to anymore.

You have too much to live for to kill yourself slowly with the nic bitch. Give the nic bitch my favorite wave... 'Finger'

Day 3 -

Had a long night... Had trouble sleeping.
Woke up early with my 16 month old son and played on the living room floor. It's been a great morning. Going to keep myself very busy today. I'm so happy that I am putting this crap behind me for good... It's the only thing I've ever lied to people about, hid from people, or been deceitful about... I was a closet chewer... Now I am a quitter 3 days strong.
I hope everyone is having a good day.
Have a great Easter!

Good morning Dan, sleep will get back to normal, actually better than before. Beautiful family you have. I know you will defeat this ,you have every reason in the world to right there in your picture! Embrace the suck it's gonna suck a while! You a big boy, suck it up and get it done! Damn proud to be quit with you my friend! ODAAT! EDD!

Your body is healing from years of poisoning, and I want you to embrace this SUCK, because you will never have to feel this bad again because you are now quit.

You gave yourself the best Easter gift ever, quit in a basket fulla fake grass!

Day two:
I bought Bac Off Wintergreen Extra last night, Definitely helped with my ride into work. Also have been munching on some sun flower seeds.
Just in such a mixed emotion mood right now, IÂ’m angry, happy, mad, and sad all at the same time.
I know I will beat this. Luckily I stay busy at work so there is less time to sit and let my wheels turn. I think my daily cardio will help relieve a lot of the anxiety. IÂ’m really looking forward to that.
Just going to keep on chugging along.

Nice to see this today. You're doing all the right things. It's a grind at first... A tooth and nail fight some days. Hang on brother! When it starts to get better it gets waaaay better. As much as possible, immerse yourself in this site. There's info and inspiration on every page. Even the colossal screw ups teach us something! Rock n roll, man...

You can/will beat this ODAAT. There is no other way as we are Nicotine addicts. You're an addict, I'm an addict.
It's all in our minds. So you gotta re-wire daily. We dipped for ourselves, we have to be Quit for Ourselves. There is no other way. For me it meant getting really crazy into this site...and it works. Today is day 1044 of posting roll every damn day my feet hit the floor. I dipped for 10950 days my feet hit the floor. My life is different now. It has meaning and I can feel/think/live better because of what I have done with the Tools and Brotherhood of KTC. I would probably be dead if I had not quit when I did. For me, my quit is a matter of life or death. I choose Life EDD with You and every other quitter who knows the truth.
Cheers. If I can, You can, We can/do this ODAAT and NAFAR.

Great decision. Do you have some numbers from other quitters yet? It may sound strange, but being able to text a fellow quitter can help offset a crave, or just plain help. PM me if you want my number, and enjoy this holiday weekend without nicotine.

Welcome. You came to the right place. Listen to AJ. He is a real quitter.

I started listening to him 488 days ago...now Im quit like fuck

Joequit,

I think I posted in my quit group correctly (after attempting unsuccessfully the first two times). I just think this whole idea of this site is awesome.
So in my quit group, when I do roll call each day, do I just do the same thing I did earlier cut, paste, enter my name and how many days -- or do I write after I do roll call about how my quit is coming a long?

I've never been so amped up about kicking this crap!

Just post first thing in the morning, as early as you can or whenever you get up, after you shower shit  do whatever you normally do. I post as soon as I get up so I don't forget! Yes, just do the same as you did each time, but change the day. YOu can write in here (your introduction) anytime you want and whatever you want. Its kind of like your personally diary. And it inspires others who are going through the same thing. Any other questions please ask. And try to get numbers from people in your quit group so you can text or call them if you feel like you are about to cave. Support group is here - use it if you need it!
