I'm lucky to have some badasses in my month!! (sept) hoping today is better than yesterday-day by day right! Didnt have many friends yesterday-snapping on fiancé, some friends- sure they know I was just raging and whatnot but it honestly drove me close if it weren't for some advice I've received from the vets, who knows?? I feel yesterday is my first real victory over this slut. Quit with you Sept!!

Today starts day 3, I can do this! Spending the morning with my children then heading to work. It is going to be a good day,got my mint snuff,(which I need to get more of),and I have my water and gum.
outstanding job on 3 days. After today the hardest part is over, chemical addiction. After today it's all a mind game and that's why you need to keep your focus. Keep up the good work.
Never forget the past or you will be doomed to relive your mistakes.

mthomas speaks the truth...

also- brisk exercise is your friend. get out and walk, bike, lift weights... it will help... eat sunflower seeds, whatever it takes... you got this. No way is a weed stronger than you.

Holler if you need anything..

Thanks everyone for the positive support,today by far was the worst so far,I have almost reached my wits end, but by reading what I have so far I feel like just being here will be what I need.
Do you have numbers to call? You need to protect your quit now. No point in turning back, keep going and fight. The level of craves comes and goes. Sometime you might just need to text or talk through a crave.

If you want mine, pm me.

Mthomas is wise....

Focus on one day. Today. Anyone can quit for a day. Especially since you promised a bunch of people going though the same shit that you would quit today. It might be tough and it might not be. It might even be easy. It's only one day after all.

The concept and process to quit is pretty simple.

I have seen some failed attempts here on KTC and there are two major reasons for a cave.

1st - Some quitters think that the program is too simple to take seriously. It is like they expect some multifaceted actions and requirements to be effective. Here you quit each and every day. Never think long term about your quit. You have to trick your addicted mind. Addicted minds will never buy into the concept of being quit for good. So you quit each day you wake and never worry about tomorrow's cravings or challenges. Only worry about being quit and fighting today!

Post Roll and promise that you never miss a day posting. Get to know your group and exchange numbers and texts. We all need to support and get support at times. So be involved with your quit and share victories and bare burdens with your group.

2nd - Some quitters fail because even though they feel the need to quit, they still glamorize and entertain tobacco. You will need to stay close to this site and get educated on what a crock of shit the tobacco industry is. You need to hate every fiber of that industry. Hate it so much that the thought of going back to that vice, the cravings that you feel will piss you off to where you can say, "Not today!" When cravings come, don't entertain them. Dismiss the nic bitch. If you can't - immediately text and call for backup. Don't make the battle worse by dancing with the devil. Punch the devil in the mouth and don't mince words. YOU HATE IT AND WANT NOTHING TO DO WITH IT!!!!

Congrats on your decision to quit baudy!

These first days are intense, as you no doubt are finding out. Remember how tough they are and know that you never have to go through them again. You failed at your first quit attempt... I failed at hundreds of them...until I found this site. If you follow the program you will quit and remain that way for as long as you follow it:

1. Post Roll- This is your promise to all of us that you will not use nicotine just for TODAY. Today is the only day you can quit in.

2. Honor that promise

3. Repeat.

The days are going to get better real soon ~30yr Addict- 480 days quit.
