Welcome Greg to the hardest thing you ever did in your life....getting it back!

Read and re-read what bean told you until it sinks in real deep.
YOU can BE QUIT, I promise you that!
If a dumbass hillbilly like me can do it, then I know that YOU CAN TOO!!!
Proud to be quit with YOU!! 'zombie'

After 31 years I am going for it and quitting. Up until now I have had an
excuse but my jaw bone is fading away and I'm scared shitless. I have no idea
how I will make it past this first week. I stumbled on this website and to me
is a last chance to free myself of the dip shit mentallity! So if you can show me
the ropes and put up with the profanity that is soon to come. 'bang head'

Thanks Greg
Klark is right...post roll and keep your word. We all have your back now.

As for "how you are going to make it through the first week?" You are going to do it just like everyone here is doing it...one day at a time. (Early on, it was one minute/hour at a time.) Post roll then read all you can. Stay glued to this website. Water, excersize, seeds, fake stuff, cussing, ranting, raving...do anything you have to do to stay nic free. Fight like your life depends on it...because it does!

Look all of the quitters in the "Quit Groups"...not just your group, but click on a few more. That is proof that YOU CAN DO THIS!!! 31 years is a long time, but that number doesn't really matter. You're an addict. Addicts lie, cheat, hide and do just about anything to get their fix. But we're addicts too...and we're staying quit...YOU CAN TOO.

It is as simple as posting your promise. Don't think about "quitting forever." That is too hard, too overwhelming. So don't do it...don't even say you are quitting forever. You are just quitting for today. And anyone, even weak pussies, can go one day without dip. That's all any of us are doing...just quitting for today.

You can't change the past, can't know the future...so don't worry about them. All you need to focus on is right now, today, this five minutes. YOU CAN DO THIS. Also, embrace the suck. It is going to get way worse before it gets better. But train yourself to see that as your body healing. It is the suck, but it is also a wonderful feeling to know that you are getting better with each passing moment. And when it really gets bad, get on this site and just ask for help. Explaining what you are going through will help you see it for what it is...the nicotine mind fuck. You will start to laugh at yourself for all the different ways the Nic Bitch will try to make you rationalize "just one more." If you post roll, and your word is worth anything, you'll keep your promise and defeat the Nic Bitch one day at a time.
One day at a time sounds good.
Nothing wrong with a little profanity Greg. You have come to the right place for help so you can vent as much as you need too. Main thing is stay quit while doing so and don't ever pick up that can of worm shit again. Just take it one day at a time and you will be fine. We are here for ya and will quit with you everyday. 'Cheers'
Welcome Greg! You have made a wise choice my friend! I was exactly where you are at just 6 days ago. Drink lots of water was the most useful advice I got. Everytime I craved, I would just start chugging water! I look forward to quitting with you!
Caving is NOT an option!

Greg, welcome to the best decision you have ever made. You need to only worry about today, post your word and honor it. Stay close to the site, reach out when you need help. It's not going to be easy but the results are incredible.
A promise not kept is the road to exile.

If quitting is cool, consider me Myles Davis.

Unless you bring value onto my 1/2 acre, I don't want to hear it.
