Sorry to hear about your cave. You would think 150+ days quit is a good base.

I know for myself I would really like to know the details of the cave. How it happened, why it happened. Was there a specific trigger ?

I think it would very helpful and educational for me, and other noobs, to arm ourselves with more useful information to help avoid the cave.
I don't think there was a any one specific trigger. I think for me alot played into my cave. The weather getting nicer , coaching baseball, which is something I have either played or coached my whole life and always until this year involved snuff. I quit posting and for me that does not work.. No matter how many days it has been I need to post. That probably does not apply to everyone but it does to me. I need the accountability. 150+ days, I thought I was in the clear, I wasn't and now I am dealing with the guilt of letting my brothers and sisters on this site down and my family and myself. Rough day.. but no one to blame but my dumb ass. I hoped this helps a little. PM me if and i will give you cell phone number so we can text if you need it. I know i do.

Understood. Baseball, coaching, start of good weather would be huge triggers....and first time you have faced all 3 together. Major hurdle.

Thank you for sharing.
It is like watching groundhog day. :angry:

Addiction if for life. Freedom is self-imposed.

So what's the plan mac? You going to use the tools here this time? You gonna reach out when shit hits the fan? Tell me. Tell me how the hell you will get through it this time. What have you learned.
The plan is to use this site and my brothers on here everyway i can. Right now I can't honestly tell you how I will get through it this time but I have learned that posting every day is huge for me.
Posting everyday...posting everyday...posting everyday...posting everyday...POSTING EVERYGODDAMNDAY

Lets start w/ that one, maybe exchange more numbers and make yourself more reachable to your quit brothers. So, 'friend' them on facebook, exchange e-mails ect...

You can do this buddy, show us you're committed this time

I am not on facebook but please PM me and I will share cell phone with any and all.

The only thing you should be focused on is today, tell people how you will get through today. Then use that plan everyday. The first step is earning some credibility back by posting roll today and honoring it. Repeat tomorrow.
A promise not kept is the road to exile.

If quitting is cool, consider me Myles Davis.

Unless you bring value onto my 1/2 acre, I don't want to hear it.

How is this time going to be different from last time?
Made it 150+ days this last time, and then don't know what happened. How will it be different than last time, right now I can't fully answer that question. I do know that I found out that I have to post every day, every day from 1 to 10,000. Not posting is not an option for me . I must be held accountable.

Good Morning July 2012,

My name is Buddy Mac and I recently made the Hall of Fame with the February 2012 group. I caved yesterday. Those words I never thought i would say but it happened. I don't know how or why but it did. I feel like shit because I didn't even want it. But one thing I know now is this site and always posting is what I have to do.. I stopped posting at around day 140 and the nic bitch got me. Gentlemen, I will be posting day 1 with your group and am asking that you guys accept me into your group as I start all over today with DAY 1. Please feel free to text me at xxx-xxx-xxxx. Hope you all will accept me.

Quit for 82 days earlier this year and caved. I am on day 7 of this quit and I want it to be my last quit. My name is Buddy Macmillan , I am 35 years old and have dipped for the last 20 years.
This will be your last quit. Read everything on this site mutiple times---lean on this support for your quit. Educate yourself about the rough patches. Have an anti cave plan. Seriously--write it down!

You got this--post your promise every morning and you win.
