Wow,what a night. A six hour white knuckle drive at 30-40mph on the interstate. Had to get to Detroit from Chi last night. Sometimes I hate the arctic.

Teg, you drove within a mile of my house last night as you cruised past St. Joseph, MI. Glad you made it, glad you made it without caving - driving (particularly in stressful conditions) is one HELL of a trigger for me! Congrats dude!

Seems it's getting better, I can actually go a few hours without thinking about it. But then it haunts me like a stalker closing in. I won't let it though. NO, I will not.

'archer' Teg, the nicotine is now GONE from your system, so the physical cravings are no more....it's all mental now. Keep yourself OUT OF YOUR HEAD, it's a dangerous place.

Stay with it, buddy! PM me if you need a telephone number/email, etc.

nice job Teg,

stay in the moment, you can do anything for a minute. Stay little, guard your quit, protect it like its your life........most likely it is.

"CLOSE THE DOOR. In my opinion, it?s the single most important step in your final quit. There is one moment, THE moment, when you finally let go and surrender to the quit. After that moment, no temptation will be great enough, no lie persuasive enough to make you commit suicide by using tobacco."

Sleep will get better, Teg. Just don't stuff any of the crap in your lip. You're on your way . . . no turning back now. Why would you want to anyway?

Also, just for a short-term fix, you could ask one of your quit bros to post for you. Nothing wrong with that. The important thing is that you make the promise to quit everyday!

Would love to post in the group, but with the cutting and pasting, alt a and all, I'm getting confused on my iPad. Don't have all those functions. At a trade show now, will post to the group when I get back to a real computer.
Hey Teg, posting with the iPad is tricky but can be done - first, hit "quote" on the most recent role posting. Go to the second box down where the post is and touch screen anywhere in that box. When the cursor is visible touch the cursor exactly - you'll see the bar come up (select, select all, etc) hit select all - then another bar will come up - hit "cut" - then go up to the first box and touch in the box, then touch again, on the second touch a bar will come up - hit 'paste'. Now you're done. Just go to the end of the quitters and post up!

Welcome! I'm proud to quit with you!
