You're headed in the right direction bro. There's nothing like hitting day 13 or so and realizing that your whole life is ahead of you because you FINALLY had the balls to quit. Proud as hell to quit with you today.

Day #4 of what I'm sure is gonna be a long road! Day 2 has been definitely the worst so far. I'm not going back and I'm so glad I found a link to this site!
It's not so long my friend. One day at a time. If you have to, one second. There is no tomorrow, there is only today. It takes time to get that mindset, but once you do it will get easier. The addict in you will try to think about the future and how long and hard this road will be.

Take a good look at yourself today my friend. Breath in that dignity your taking back. Suck in that freedom you now have. Today you have posted, you're quit and that's all you have to worry about! Screw the poison!!!!

Day 4 means the poison is either completely out of your system, if not all the way out. Go outside and take a good look around. Look at the world without the poison blurring your vision and clouding your mind. Good job!

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.

Congrats on making a great choice, Lungb!!! Learn how and why we post roll. Then do it. Then, let's work on your attitude. Quitting is a privilege reserved to those who have the guts to do it. Yes, going through the fog sucks. But not compared to feeding tubes, jaw removal and death. So think of it this way...you GET to go through the fog because you made a great CHOICE to be free.

Welcome the withdrawals. It will get better. But focus on TODAY. Really take note of how bad the suck is, really experience it. It is the feeling of your recovery. Nobody gets free for the asking. You have to earn it. No exceptions. But look at the Quit Groups...not just your own, but all of those years, all of those months and all of those badasses were once right where you are right now. Pretty cool, huh?

YOU CAN DO THIS, BROTHER!!!

This ^^^^^^ is the mindset of quitter. Srans likes.

Your right my friend. It will get better with time. Each day you put between you and the poison the easier and better life will become. You just have to believe. Your mind only knows life with the poison right now. Guess what, being chained to the poison is not how life was intended.

If you haven't go to the welcome center and learn how and why we post roll. Let's take this quit to the next level. Post roll with us. We can always use one more quitter!
Post roll.....read....learn....get involved....

Day 3
« on: June 19, 2014, 08:33:00 AM »
I have been dipping for around 20 yr and I took my last one on Monday. I have "quit"in the past but obviously went right back. I have a wife and two kids that depend on me and I'm done putting stuff in my lip that has a cancer warning right on it.
These last 2 days have sucked bad, with yesterday being the worst. I haven't slept worth a damn either but its gotta get better with time. I've tried my best to not take it out on my family but I know that I've been an ass a couple of times. I know there are better days ahead and I'm gonna keep on keeping on no matter what!
