Haven't posted in here forever. Today, 700 days ago, a different but similar me walked away from the chains of the cope fiend. What a rollercoaster the first 75 days were and truly didn't feel 100% adjusted till around 160-200. Now, life is sweet and the freedom is sweeter. I no longer reach for the can in my sock, or crave the myth after a meal or any other trigger. So, now I stay vigilant. Work with other quitters to strengthen mine. Like Candy said, positive selfishness. I like that term.

Quit on you freaking house of addicts!
Glad to have you keeping me accountable!
Congrats DBG! :)

Stick around and keep helping other folks. Seeing you hit 700 days is like quit fuel for me.

There are no circumstances in which using nicotine will improve the outcome.

My journey. The best part it is not over yet.

500 days ago my life revolved around a can of stanky, wet, plant leaves. Everything I did was planned around having enough and spotting the opportunities. Can in the sock so it doesn't stand out...can't wear shorts. Well fuck, when its 90 degrees that's a tough one to explain. Going to the beach...how do I put enough in a ziplock baggie to fit dry in my pocket? Clever, eh?

Now? NAFAR. Period. 500 is a cool number and I celebrate its arrival. As Candi said to me this AM...501 is even sweeter. That's how life is now. Things can be going swimmingly, suck rocks, or anywhere in between but tobacco is off the table and its plain as day to me that a problem plus the shit results in more that two problems...it results in my loss. I don't lose. I won't lose. Thank you KTC and it's fine residents.
Congrats and Rock on DBGone!
Half a comma! That is Badass. Congrats!
Congrats on reaching the 5th floor!
Sorry I missed this my friend. Congratulations and quit on sir!
Tobacco is so addictive it took me a year after a massive heart attack, in which doctor confirmed caused from dipping to finally put a lid on the bitch! ODAAT EDD

430 straight days of promising to my brothers and sisters in quit. 430 straight days of honoring that promise. Looking back at the outpouring of support from the bad assery krew gives me chills.

I'm not the first to say this...not sure if I would be quit without KTC but I KNOW I will be by posting roll and my promise.

I often spend my evenings still reading on this great site. The freedom of life without nic is something only us addicts can appreciate. You freshies; it not only can be done but is very simple. Accept the tough love. Vets are through the fog and can see the Siren for who she is. Follow the lead and beat this back every second every minute every hour every day.

You, my friends and colleagues of quit, gave me the strength to save my own life. Yesterday is gone today is promised and tomorrow taint here yet. I am quit. I will continue ODAAT.

Bad ass brother. 365 days of quitty goodness, be proud, I know I am. Nothing, feels as good as freedom. This freedom isnt free, costs a daily promise. Which I will gladly pay. Quit with you EDD!
Great milestone! soak it in, celebrate!
Share your thoughts at this point in quit for those behind you!
Proud to call you a brother and a friend! Congratulations, 1 year is huge!
Doing it backwards but doing it right! Thanks for inviting me into your quit web DBG! :)

The nice thing about 365 is that the 4th floor is so close. Then you'll start thinking about your HOF anniversary. It's a sweet spot but don't get complacent. B)B
One year Rocks.... Well done Sir!
