Hoping to Quit for Good

[MN_Engineer]

MNx, congrats on your 1 year quit. Great quit, thanks for paying it forward.

Seems like only yesterday you and I were talking about you quitting and not waiting. Great job brother!!! Keep up the quit!!

Congratulations on the trip around the sun! Badass

Keep being a BAQ. Proud to quit with you everyday.

Thank you for spending the last year saving yourself and others each day.

Hey everyone!! Thank you so much for the support and encouragement!! Richard - it does seem like yesterday you wrote in my intro something to the extent of "why wait until next week; start today!". My quit is a testament to this site and the process here at KTC. When I stop to think about it, I start to laugh at how simple it really is:

1.) Post early every single focking day. NO EXCEPTIONS.
2.) Keep your word for the next 24 hours.
3.) Exchange digits and use them daily!
4.) Let tomorrow take care of itself.

I am beyond blessed with the support from you all. Often times at the end of the day, I will go into August 16 and just look at the support post section and see the huge list of BAQ's quitting "with MNx". It makes me misty eyed to think how I have impacted these people (you all!) and how this accountability network has transformed (and most likely) saved my life.

Thank you all again for your support over the past year. I am proud to be quitting with each of you EVERY DAMN DAY!

So a mini reflection I wasn't planning on writing but wanted to share in the hopes that someone will find it helpful/inspiring.

Yesterday I was on day 309. And yesterday evening I was craving harder than I have since probably the mid 100's. I had posted yesterday morning so caving wasn't an option but man was that nic bitch trying every last trick in her hat. I texted a few guys and before I knew it I was getting tons of other texts from guys that went something to the extent of "Hey! *Insert BAQ name here* told me you were having a rough time. How can I support you?"

It was humbling and powerful and helpful all at the same time. The accountability/brotherhood network I have been creating since joining this site 310 days ago came through for me in a way that was perfectly overwhelming. I never doubt the support of my fellow brothers and sisters of quit; but seeing it come through in such a critical moment and in such a powerful way brought tears to my eyes and sent the nic bitch crying away with her tail between her legs.

If you are a new quitter reading this or maybe someone thinking about joining this site, KTC will work for you if you put forth the time and effort to use it as it is intended. I wanted to cave so hard yesterday. But I had posted roll yesterday morning and for those that know me on here, I will NEVER compromise the integrity of my word. But when moments like that sneak up, you NEED a support base that is 1000% percent solid. It seemed weird giving my digits out to such a variety of people but it's these guys that remind me of that promise and carry me through the tough times.

I don't pretend to be unaware that a fair amount of people on here look up to me and rely heavily on me. This knowledge is super humbling but know I am still human. I am (and will) be that rock solid support for people to lean on but I will also crave and have moments where I need to be the one doing the leaning. And that is ok. These moments of vulnerability strengthen the brotherhood and the accountability because it is a reminder that we all need each other and are in this fight together.

Final thought - a lot of people look to the HOF as the end goal. And while the HOF is a commendable milestone it is merely the beginning. If you are reading this with a couple hundred days under your belt and considering leaving KTC, I would strongly encourage you to reconsider. Posting roll every damn day, keeping your word and having that accountability network WORKS. If I had been off on my own away from KTC yesterday I don't know if I would have caved. But since I was still here and active, I have the privilege and opportunity to post a Day 310 today. And of that, I am incredibly proud.

MNX,
I am one of those quitters who has relied on you and your support. Your always there when I need a little boost or support in a hairy, edge-of-the-cliff moment. Although we have not yet met in person, I consider you a friend and a quitter who has been instrumental in KTC brotherhood. Congrats on your 300 days! I will see you at 365, 400, and beyond!!!!

That is what ktc is all about but it want work if people don't let it. Great job

MNX,
Man, you where one of the first to reach out to me. It was you who unknowingly convinced me it was safe to exchange digits. Those digits saved my life. You and the HEFF-a-Nator have been a pilar of strength for me and I can't thank you enough.

Congratulations you badass!

Great job, MNx!!!

I wanted to post something this past Saturday which was my Day 300 but my little one got baptized over the weekend and it was a focking whirlwind!

It's hard to pinpoint exactly why but 300 is an incredible milestone for me. Back when I would try to quit on my own, I only ever made it about 3 weeks. 300 days seemed like a gargantuan number when I posted my Day 1 and still seemed like a fantasy at the HOF. But focusing one day at a time makes the time fly! And as they say, time flies like an arrow and fruit flies like bananas. But I digress. Posting 300+ days now makes me feel like a quit god but then there are folks like WCG over in July 2010 posting a day 2,500 today. But if you are a new quitter reading this, there is no competition here; we are all addicts posting a promise EDD, stacking the +1's ODAAT.

I have been humbled with an incredible support network here and I know that has contributed to my continued success. Thank you all and I am proud to be quit with you all TODAY.
