[Loppy]

alright guys, Im 15 yes its sad being that young and already addicted. I really need some support... I quit smoking after a year and I was happy, my doctor already could tell I smoked cause my lungs were getting all clogged up with nasty tar. Im a husky boy from oklahoma and I had dipped recently but it just got worse once I kicked one habit, another, just as deadly one began. I need some emtional support not getting sappy on you guys just need some support. My parents knew I smoked after i told my pops straight out when he asked. I now have started spitting two cans a week! ): I need some help... Some guidance.

That's about when I started you better quit now buddy because once your hooked 20 years goes quick and 1000's of dollars waisted on killing yourself. Get off th shit, stay stong

jake the emotional support you want and need along with a good ass kicking from time to time, is in the quit groups. If you want to quit, you need to introduce your self in the introduce forum and then post day one with your promise you will be quit for that day. Have you spent any time looking around and reading? you need to. do it, today, I can help you but you gotta want this. email me if you have any questions or comments.

My little brother. Started when I was 15, just like you now. I'm 45 now, 30 years of a waste of money, and damage to my body.... I sure wish I could talk to me back then, like we can you, right now.

To hell with tobacco. Join us man, I'm 3 days into my quit and its going great. Its hard yes, but nothing you cant do. If I can, you can. Come join our unit and fight with us. Its a war, and every day is a battle. I'll fight with ya. Fight with us now.

Is this the appropiate place where we can start a conversation with all members about Spring triggers? I ask because I am 444 days quit and for the past few days I find that as I get back outside doing some spring cleaning and what not that I am more frequently thinking about dipping. It's never serious thought like you want to run to the store or anything, but to be honest the only time in the past 6 to 8 months that I have even thought about nicotine is in the morning when I post roll. Other than that, the thought is usually very far off in my memory banks. I don't know what it is though, perhaps its facing situations a year or so down the road where you have memories of abusing nicotine, or perhaps its boredom in my day to day life. Loot warned about a funk around 400-450 days; I like to think that he just planted a seed in my brain, but still even knowing that, these cravings are here. Anyone care to share some of their bigger triggers, or any long time veterans wish to share a story about how they were faced at some point after their quit that they experienced something similar? Sorry if this all seems like a ramble, its just been that kind of th epast few days. Stay strong everyone and thanks for making KTC what it is, you have all helped to save my life!

Yes... this is the perfect place to talk about this kind of stuff. And even though you've been quit for over a year now, this is the first time you've dealt with spring as a "quitter". Yes, last spring you were quit, but your quit was very new and fresh in your mind. This time around, you're comfortable in your quit so it's different.

This blog post, while written about fall, will give you some insight into what I'm referring to:
http://blog.killthecan.org/2009/10/fall ... -triggers/

Bottom line... you've done the right thing by identifying it. That's the first step. There's NOTHING more dangerous to a quit that complacency and comfort.

Quit today.

afraid of caving again. 38 yr of slavery
And I can't fail again.
