Finally getting back on the road, hopefully heading home to see my wife and daughter. Made it 3 days with only jolly ranchers and txting with srans to keep me clean.

I have followed your quit from the beginning to now I must say you are doing what you need to do to keep quit. I am happy to see that you are drinking the koolaid and using all of your tools to keep the bitch at a distance including the most basic which are your legs to haul your ass out of the dragons gut when a crave happens. One addition to your tool kit might be a larger bag to keep your jerky seeds fake stuff in. Proud of you keep quit. Check your inbox for digits if you need them.

Great job last night cmv. You were craving, you texted me, fought through it and KABOOM!!!

That's how its done. That win will carry over. If you beat it last night then you can damn sure beat the next one. Give yourself a quitters pat on the back. Proud of u bro. One day at a time. You got this. As cleanfuel would say,,,,, KABOOM!!!
When you use your tools that's when you see how great this brotherhood really is! Good job! It feels good waking up today knowing that you did not cave when it was staring you in the face Doesn't it? That's bad ass!

The poison sucks. I hate it. I hated it this morning, I hated it at noon, I hated it at supper and I hate it tonight. I enjoy hating it so much I'm going to wake up tomorrow and start over hating it. I quit with anyone that wants to hate it with me.

OK having a rough day today, ran out of jerky chew and cant find it or the fake stuff. Trucks in the shop so i get the joy of down time.  I couldn't help but notice my brand behind the counter while walking around looking for substitute, practically had to run screaming from the store. Its unusual to see my brand, usually have to special order it from a little shop near my house. ugh...
Run and keep running. Running will help you forget about wanting that filthy disgusting poison. You said your brand. I beg to differ. Your brand is freedom long cut. You get that in quitville. That's where you are now brother. Screw the poison. Read my signature line. Memorize it. Quit with you cmv.
Like srans said...RUN! Down time sucks. Especially when youre away from home. Find something to keep yourself occupied as much as possible. Take a looooong walk if need be. You got my number. Use it if you need it.
I have found that 10 burpees every time I get the craving works well. If you don't know how to do a burpee google it.

Physical activity is a great distraction.

Be thankful for these rough days too bro. Each victory over one makes your quit that much stronger as you prove to yourself... Life is damn good without our nic fix! You've heard it, I'll say it again... Never Again, For Any Reason. Rock on bro...
Well, it’s one louder, isn’t it? It’s not ten.

My wife is totally understanding of my quit, our fighting was more my snarky attitude due to nic fits. Shes been great through this so far, she knows its not totally my fault but the withdrawls talking. Shes actually amazed I've made it this far with out tearing my codrivers head off.
You're running team? That poor S.O.B. .....at least you got a punching bag. 'crackup' Seriously though, good work on day 6. Quit with you.
Good job cmv. Don't look now but your doing it brother. Your determination will help pull you through this.

Day 7. This is what it's all about. 7 days you haven't went down to the store and spent your hard earned money on a can that does absolutely nothing good for you.
That seven days of freedom. Congrats on a week. Keep it up. Great things are around the corner. Quit with you...

Cmv, been watching your quit. Your doing great brother. Looks like you've been having some rough days. I was there, just like everyone that is posting in your intro.

Find something that takes the place of that can bro. Remember my toothpick idea,, i'm telling you, it works.

The wife and family will not really understand what your going through, which is a good thing. I talked to my wife at the beginning and explained to her I needed time. If your able, get your wife on the site to read this http://www.killthecan.org/community/spouse.asp, it might help. My wife was great when I began this journey. She learned to back off and give me space when I needed it.

Just around the corner is better days. You will not be sorry. Your driving without the poison will get better. I know it's hard, ALMOST unbearable. I had a rough days just like you. Driving is a very stressful (like you don't know,, right) job. Add that with overcoming this addiction and you have one of the worst combinations imaginable. The one thing that you can't see right now is that the poison added to the stress of driving. You won't believe how much easier your life is going to be once this addiction is in the back seat and not sitting up front with you. At 170 days my stress meter has taken a nose dive. I can't believe how much better my life is without the poison. It was one big lie that I believed for 25 freaking years. WTF!!

This is how you overcome. One minute at a time. One second at a time. It will get better. You need another # let me know. Quit with you bro,,,, YOU CAN AND WILL DO THIS!!!!
