Along with the others --- Tomorrow is day 1

[AppleJack]

Just remember a cave in isn't the end of it all. In that 3 and a third months you were that much closer to your HOF goal and you were that much better off for it. I know it must feel like total shit to let yourself fail but you also have to remember to look at the positives...how much money you saved, how happy you were to let your wife know she could kiss you and not get stained teeth up in her faith. Its a struggle but youre strong for making it as long as you did! Hang in there bud!

No.
Sorry.

We don't pat people on the ass and offer up a, "Way to go! You gave it a good try this time!". That's not how we do here and you need to wrap your head around that. There is no strength in making it "x" far and pissing it all away. None.

Real quitting is a one time deal. Own it and... Done. Anything less weakens this house and we can't afford that. We can't afford a wishy-washy attitude towards a cave. It benefits no one. Our response will be hardcore because the consequences of giving in to our addiction are equally hardcore.

Ball coddling bullshit.

Nate is a serial caver and has yet to prove that he respects anyone here or the site itself.

The fact that he's already putting off posting a new day 1 until tomorrow morning speaks volumes.

I won't be holding my breath.

I'm back. I'm ready for the shitstorm. I give up. Day 1 and a response to the 3 questions tomorrow. I let you guys down. I know what it takes for success and what it takes to fuck it all up. I know I let my August brothers down. I'm going to bed now, but will post first thing in the morning. This is the only thing that has ever worked for me and I walked away from it. No excuses. I did the deal for the better part of a year and threw it away.

I will be waiting, trust me.

Oh, I've been waiting. In fact, I heard the exact shit Nate just posted via text a few days ago. I'll believe it when I see it, and even then I'll be pretty damned skeptical.

This explanation better be epic.

You taste success and piss it away? You obviously have zero respect for yourself, your brothers, or this site. Damn, man...

A little over 3 weeks ago Nate shot a warning flare that he was in a bad place. If you read through the support he received in his intro and tips on how to strengthen his quit. On the same day, there was a longer string in Aug 14. Many have been asking for an update. Today Bass shared that Nate caved.

It's one thing to ask for help and to heed the counsel of your peers. It's another to toss out a whining help me plea and do nothing other than stuff your lip. I saw him post support in the new months a few times but nothing more.

If he comes back, he will need supporters. I will not be one of them. There are many people out there who care about their quit.

Sorry if I am over the top on this. Other than bobbugler who caved around 50 days, this is the only other one I can recall since from Aug 14 and it sucks.

I cannot understand how after nearly 300 days of freedom the thought of voluntarily slapping on chains to rejoin the cult of the nic bitch's slaves sounds even remotely appealing.

Ktc works because it is a team. It takes a while to get that. To understand it. To embrace it. But once you buy in to the team approach, success is a million times easier. We all lied to and cheated ourselves about this addiction for a long long time. But it is another thing to kick your fellow team of baseball or softball players in the balls and walk off the field. That is what caving on your team feels like if you quit Ktc style.

Nate this is a pretty harsh post, but if you gone back I hope you take it to heart. Pm me. I know how to quit. But you gotta promise me every day that you won't kick me in the balls.

Caving is easy. Any dickwad can cave. It takes a real man (or woman) to quit.

Damn I can tell there's a lot of brotherhood and trust that involved here! All I can say is nate got a lot of people here that give a shit about you! We are all human and no ones perfect! Here are alone please make the right choice quit! Better yet get your ass back in here where you belong! Man up take your frigging medicine its better than dying!

So, you're quit today. Good. You also used your tools and you are still quit today. Good.

Now, for a second of self-reflection, go back to your post where you communicate your plea for help. In that post you mention that you stopped posting religiously and have little interaction. Now that you've seen the outpouring of support to get you through that crisis, do you think it would be a good idea to change your level of roll posting and interaction? To me, it sounds like your quit foundation is not strong enough and needs some serious reinforcement. Don't build your quit house out of straw or sticks. Use bricks. Everyone who gave you support through that crisis and who posts roll in your quit group is a brick. I'm a brick too and you can use me to fortify your new house.

Concur. Nice job using your tools.

Stay positive my man. Don't forget what you have done and what you will do today. You are a winner and are kicking nicotine to the curb. That is all good. Life will always have ups and downs. Remember that dipping will not change that. The only thing it will do is make things worse. 1 problem + nicotine = 2 problems. Think about that. What you are doing is amazing. You are now dealing with life while not under the influence. It is a bit scary at times but you have to embrace it. Take a step back and realize the way you used to handle problems and life's challenges.... You ran to a can of weed. No more. Now you just deal with life head on. It is pretty great my friend!

Stay on this. Stay positive. Get active, post roll EDD. I am quit with you today.

You guys rock. I was a bit late texting back, but I am still quit today. I feel strengthened and also very humbled that I allowed myself to get so close to pissing it all away. The amount of support I received was immense. I am not going back and I need to return to the 'burn the boats' NAFAR stage as was mentioned. I was there before and then it went away when I got complacent.

This shit is very real. I am so proud to quit with you all.

Over to the new groups to pledge support.

Nate day 259

That's why brotherhood works, and why you did the right thing by coming here and asking for help. We are all addicts, and if I find myself in the same situation you were in, I pray I have the strength to come here and ask for help. I quit with you today Nate.

Kill names get ass later or something like that Nate. It is you that has the power Nate, always have. Dont loose your life to a dead plant in a plastic can.
