Hey George, I have been sleep deprived for almost 14 days but i'm starting to catch up. find my sleep quality better than before. At least now I don't wake up in the middle of the night having to throw in a fattty. Sleep and the weird dreams have been sorta tough but not enough to go back to that lying c**t.

Still going strong. Thanks for the help and encouragement. Rough night sleeping last night. I had seen some others having same issue. Hopefully will sleep better tonight. Feels good to be quitting with my bros and gal.

Great job on deciding to quit George. I know it is a hard decision to give up something you have had your hole life and it will not be easy. This site and the group you are in are your family to and together we all will help you get through this quit so you don't have to go it alone. Keep on posting in here and helping others cause by helping others you help yourself. if I can help in any way let me know.

Asking for help was one of the most difficult parts of my quit as well. I have always felt that asking for help was a massive blow to my pride; something that has made my years as a poor college student all the more difficult. I will agree that asking this group of crazy fuckers for help is the best choice an addict could possibly make.

Glad to see your quit is still going strong. I quit with you today brother.

Once again, what a great bunch of guys and gals on this site. I am an engineer and a bit of a loner in the real world, so I always had this attitude that I can and will fix whatever need to be fixed by myself. Whether it's cars, plumbing, electronics, I've been good at fixing things that are broken. And asking for help felt like a sign of weakness to me.

I guess as we get older and ultimately fail more, one can only hope that we learn from our failures. I dipped for 30 years always thinking I could quit if I want. Like us all on KTC, we realize it's not anywhere near simple or easy. Like a few I've told, I tried to quit using Nicorrette about 5 years ago. God was that a mistake. Maybe the intention is good, but a more convenient and cleaner way to pump nicotine into my system didn't help me quit, it made me a bigger addict.

Going full on with no nicotine and the support of KTC is the only way to go. Got to post roll each and every day and I want to be accountable to my fellow quitters.

Also saw some new quitters in the group. So welcome and I look forward to the HOF with the Flying Fucks (Ducks).

Thank you all for the support. It's inspirational to feel the support and hope I can help my fellow quitters as well.
As soon as you started posting you became a valuable member of the site. You've already quoted on several intros. I would say your helping others more that you even know. Keep it up brother. Your got a great quit started. One day at a time and you can have back a lot of what the poison has stolen. Never again for any reason and you can keep it.

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.

Great decision to quit George! Great advice so far for you as well. Read everything here on KTC, and get the knowledge about the enemy: nicotine! Cold turkey is the only way we quit here; reducing levels of nic only prolongs the suffering, and after day 3 you should have all the poison out of your system. Now it is all mental... Read up and get the tools you need to stay quit. Also as it is Friday, make sure you have a plan for your first weekend of quit. Keep your phone charged and ready with some #s (PM me if you need another), and get on KTC if you are struggling. Live chat is a great tool for killing craves and time.

Welcome George. You have already been given some pretty good advice from some damned fine quitters, so I will not add much right now. Read all you can, reread it, post roll daily and get involved with other quitters in your group is what I would recommend doing right now. I sent you a PM with my telephone number on it...use it if you need to vent, rage or just shoot the shit about quitting or anything else. We are here to help, but the burden of letting others know you are struggling is on your shoulders. Congratulations on taking back your life. Wayne

Thank you all for the support. It's inspirational to feel the support and hope I can help my fellow quitters as well.

I've tried quitting by myself before, without any support and what miserable failures. Feel bad about yourself. Oh maybe a fresh dip will help. Then the cycle.

One word of advice to any prospective quitters. Don't try Nicorette! The nicotine gum just became a cleaner and more convenient way of pumping nicotine into my system. Totally backfired for me. Going to a movie with wife/girlfriend and can't dip? Just chew a piece of gum. I know for some drugs, a gradually weaning is better for the body. For my nicotine addiction, I think the cold turkey approach is better. Going into Day 3, I feel better physically than I expected. Mentally it's very challenging with the cravings and doing the chores that always seemed easier with a dip, but this site does really help.

Welcome to the party George. I always tell new quitters to remember you came to this site for a reason. YOU want to quit because YOU know that the nic bitch is ruining YOUR life. Post roll everyday, that is the promise you make to the ladies and gentleman that are busting their ass to uphold the promise they made to you. It's all about accountability here. Welcome to the club, please feel free to PM me anytime if you have questions or need to chat.

Welcome, sir. All of our stories are eerily similar. You can do this.

I'm similar age as you. Ruined my whole adult life with nicotine. 1150 days quit today. KTC is the path to the other side.

Reach out if you need anything.

It's great to see all of you guys seeking each other out and supporting each other already. There are guys that I call friends that I met my first days on this site. I have one challenge for all of you. Make sure you make the promise to post 100% of the time especially for the first 100 days. This place doesn't work right if you only post most days. Share cell#'s privately with each other and use them. Text each other on a regular basis to see how each other is doing and especially use the numbers when you feel a crave. Use the numbers to vent a bit. Any and all of you that need a number, PM me and I'll give you mine. I'm on day 95 and am 100% NAFAR brothers.

NAFAR. Learn what it means and live it.
It looks like a QUIT PARTY in here with all the newbies. I love it. Quit on guys.
