QUOTE (Ready @ Mar 15, 2012, 7:51 pm)
Ready - Day 1,505

I post roll every day giving my word of Honor that I will not use nicotine in any way, shape or form. I use the tools provided by those in the trenches next to me, knowing that they will not let me down. You have no idea how many quitters I would have to go through to cave. It would be impossible for me to cave. I would not dishonor them or myself by not giving them the respect they have earned to protect me from myself if the need arose.

This is what this site is.

Or you could join the site, quit, be involved, get bored of your freedom, get complacent, think you have things under control, ignore the things that kept you quit and...

Blah Blah Blah, I left the site I caved.

Character means something.



Just a reminder on what this site is about, its not mine but it is very accurate.

Yeah this is not too constructive.

It would be good for all to remember that it takes tremendous balls to come back to this site after a cave. In fact, I would venture to guess many don't merely to avoid the huge shit storm it causes.

So before we start calling the offender names such as"prick", or "arrogant" or require the caver to wear a fucking scarlet letter until they reach a certain number of days in the new quit we carefully consider how to use this situation for the greatest good.

Having the caver share why he chose to cave and what he is going to do differently is fair. Requesting this information with name calling and vitriol does nothing but turn the next caver away from the site that it is meant to help.

There is right now, a caver who is reading this, who is considering whether they come back to the site and own their fuck up and fight the nic whore. The reception they see another caver receive will weigh heavily on the decision he makes to step up, admit his wrong and quit that one thing that will kill him. He knows he can't do it alone, but he also does not want to have an asterisk next to his name if he comes back.

Don't shut that door.

i hope this makes sense.
I'm with you Irish. Constructive is, well, constructive. This strikes me as a learning opportunity.

I've seen many come back here with a measure of humility, admit their failures and shortcomings and then get blasted. It's disappointing to hear about someone caving but it's also a good reminder of the power of this addiction. A good reminder of how narrow a margin there is between 1000 days quit and a Day 1.

Pull your head out of your ass shamrock. That is failure. That is not what we are about. You don't make excuses here. You fight. And when things get tough you use the tools of this site.

There is no reason to ever consume nicotine.

I call them like I see them!

If someone with 38 days quit can possibly help someone else try to refuse to cave by stating the facts about someone I know nothing about but was suposed to have made the same promise we all make everyday yet he didnt live up to what he stated he would do. Like it or not this guys is a lying bitch!

I really am not the type of person to get on someone for having tried and failed since well I'm not an arrogant ass nor do I think quiting is easy!

I feel bad for this guy but the bottom line is he failed and if we don't ask him what he planned on changing or show him that not only did he let himself, his group, his family, and everyone else that has read his thread he WILL FAIL AGAIN!


I am a positive person not a negative person but this site is about being positive but also accountability and this statement is concerning his accountability, now should he get back onto the quit trail with the rest of us I will be one of the first to say welcome aboard!!!

I hope he has a good plan and does quit not to hear from me but for himself.

Let me start off by questioning your manhood you sorry little bitch. April 2012, that was for you.

Now, more to the point, and I don't mean to cuddle your nuts here, but listen at me.

It was day suck hell, don't remember which, early in my quit. My head was spinning, I was sweating, I was mad as hell, and suffering from a tremendous amount of anal seepage due to what I NOW KNOW was an overdose of sorbitol in the sugar free mints I was cramming in my face in order to satiate the craves.

I was at my wit's end man, I was staring at my keys thinking about how easy it would be to get a can. I looked over at my wife who was sitting next to me and said, "I'm about to go get a can, this is ridiculous." She said "Yeah, you probably should, I mean, you may be one of those people that really needs help with this, don't go cold turkey, or maybe now is not the time to quit."

Now before anyone says anything bad about my dear wife, and I don't know why I'm putting this on this site for you assholes, but I have some anger/mood issues. I'm not trying to sound like a bad ass, I despise it. It can have me low enough to want to kill myself and higher than probably most of you cum bubbles can ever imagine, sometimes in the same day, sometimes in the same fucking meal. Luckily, there's pills for these things now, but guess what happens when you rip nicotine out of the equation cold turkey, pills or not? Things get fucking dicey my friends, that's all I can say about that.

All of this bullshit to say, before I went to the store, I got on KTC and I somehow landed on your little story about the gerbil. I laughed until I literally cried and did that weird thing where you cough really hard because you laughed all your oxygen out. And my asshole fell out because it was all lubricated from the seepage. So here I am, completely depleted of oxygen and I have a pink sock swinging from my ass cheeks, and instead of grabbing my keys to go to the store, I go get my phone and I call my dad. I read the story to him aloud. His asshole fell out, raw dog. Then he died. No I'm just fucking with you. He's fine.

But look man, I don't know what made you leave the site. But I want you to know that your contributions prior to this bullshit made a difference. What contributions will you make now? And how long before you vanish again? Because I don't want to get invested in you if you're going to poof on us.

In an extremely selfish way, I'm glad to have you back. I hate how you've returned. I never would have thought a bitch like me would have more quit days than a bitch like you.

I know this shouldn't make a difference but it does to me. You were quit, a bad assed quitter at that and caved. Was the cave a single dip or was it a week, a month or longer??

Having 1 dip is a cave(or a single cigar in Vegas like our most recent casualty)... having 1 dip and another and forgetting everything you had here for an extended period of time is quite another thing in my mind.

If you had an extended cave, I truly want to know the mindset you were in that made it ok. I NEED this to ensure my plan covers that point in my journey.

So....The question is, when you had that very first cave moment, I am sure you had feelings of guilt but what the fuck made you have another? It is unfathomable to me to "unlearn" this.
In my mere 232 days here I've heard many say "you can't have just one". The reason is that as soon as you do you are hooked again. All this for nothing. In my short time here I've seen many folks talk about how they caved and the vast majority said they felt they were ok to just have one. So I would venture to guess that his answer would be that his arrogance made him feel as if having one would be insignificant, yet that one turned into another, and another, then a can, etc. This is why we post roll and preferably post roll early in the day. This way, if you do it every day, and are truly a man of your word, you will never have to worry about what happens if you tried "just one" because you never would do it since that door would be closed that day. Period.

Quote from: SWJ
When I read some of the things I wrote here, I want to throw up.  So before I get to the official introduction, let me get some things out on the table...

1.  This site has helped me more than anything else I've ever tried in my Quit.
2.  I rocked it while I was here.
3.  I didn't stay.
4.  I caved.
5.  I own my douchery and my weakness.
6.  I'm back and more determined this time.

Here, while we're talking about my idiocy, are some of the awesome things I wrote in my initial introduction -

"...I Will Always Be Stronger Than Any Vice.  And I Will Never Cave..."

I wasn't.  And I did.

"...If I ever decided to cave, I just wouldn't show up here anymore...

I did.  And I didn't.

"...And I Am Not Weak..."

Alone, at least, I am.

"...I am a member of KTC April 2009, And I Am A Quitter...

I was.  And now I am a Quitter again.  For the second time.

Now, I know I'm not the only one who has ever caved, but I was absolutely sure that my inherent awesomeness would overcome any cravings and it did, for a while.  After some time though, I got even more cocky than I usually am, and I stopped coming here.  Stopped logging in.  Stopped conversing with my fellow Quitters.

I thought I could continue my Quit on my own.  And I was wrong.

So, here I am.  Back again. 

For the 2nd time, which I never thought would happen to me.

Quitting sucked, but not as much as caving, so here's what I'm going to do:

I'm going to go to the June 2012 group and log in my Day #1.

Then I'm going to go to the April 2009 group and apologize.

Then I'm going to lean on the people I should have been leaning on all along.
C'mon man!!!! 'Crazy'

Did the HOF mean anything to you?
Did going thru all the bullshit mean nothing to you?

You might want to tell your old group what happened........
Do you know how many folks have read your posts to pass craves or been helped by your quit advice? Unfuckinbelievable.
Before the return...he was gone for well over a year, if I remember right.

I was also told it would be a funny read, but I just couldn't dig getting into the original intro from someone who was so, so far gone from the site.

Well, back now.

As a newbie quitter here in June 2012, I don't really give a shit about your funny posts etc.  I will choose to take your word at face value and look forward to quiting every day with you.  What I would like to see though is a real introduction from you that describes when you stopped coming to KTC, when you started dipping again, and the journey back to here today.  I am not interested in excuses, but I think it would help me and others see what can happen if you don't remain vigilant.  There is some redemptive value in showing what not to do.  Own your cave and quit.

I say post whatever you want SWJ. Humor helps a lot of people.

I get no satisfaction watching a man fall, but tomorrow is a new day.

There are some days I am reminded that my 285 days doesn't mean a damn thing.

One day at a time...one moment at a time
