Nebraskadad, hold your head high today, you have a quit going and you're a man of your word. It will build over time as will the trust from your wife. She'll also be very proud as you transform into a badass quitter.

Quick story you might relate to. 704 days ago a woman I had just started dating saw a can of Kodiak in my car. She was pretty disappointed and I knew that 26 years of dipping was enough. I also knew I only had one opportunity to do this the right way. So far I've kept my promise to myself and stayed quit one day at a time.

I know you can too. We all know this about you even though you might not know it yourself yet. Why? Because we've been exactly where you are.

We'll believe in you and carry your load until you're strong enough to believe in yourself.

BTW, I married that woman last July. She still asks about my quit and your wife will too.

I'm quit with you today, Pirate style.

I would rather lose to a cheater than win as a cheater.

Going to bed to sleep down the suck
And just like that, you made it to home base. Bed is safe. And before you ask, yes - insomnia is part of it. I hardly slept for over a week.

Welcome to the next day, every day is better than the last. Before you read another word, go post roll. First thing, every damn day, no compromise, period.
From the way things went yesterday, id say you've been through some shit. Not going to lie. Today probably isn't going to be much better. Ask yourself How bad do I want freedom. How bad do I want my life back. I can't answer for you, but I'll leave some room for you to fill in.

Today is very important. There is no doubt in my mind you can do this. You know what to expect. Post roll and keep your word. It is as simple as that. Everything will start improving quicker then you think. The first few seem like weeks but they are just another day. Glad to quit with you today...

The poison sucks. I hate it. I hated it this morning, I hated it at noon, I hated it at supper and I hate it tonight. I enjoy hating it so much I'm going to wake up tomorrow and start over hating it. I quit with anyone that wants to hate it with me.

Question??

How long does suck last?

Got pukey after supper, ok now
It lasts however long it lasts. Totally different for everyone. For most people, things start to turn around after a few days. Your episodes will become less frequent, and you will have developed tools to handle it better.

Two things that helped me were unsweetened cranberry juice and sugar free gum. The juice is great for killing craves (so sour) and it helps detox your system. Gum gives your mouth something to do. Just don't overdue it or you'll give yourself tmj. I also basically lived in the chatroom for the first few weeks.
Here is the deal - the SUCK is your foundation.....embrace it, love it, own it....man the fuck up....you got this....the nic will be physically out of your system in 72 hours....you are 1/3 the way there.....after that, its a fucking head game. Personally, for me, my brain didnt really re-wire until well past 200 days.....but the shit will be gone in 48 hours......you can do anything for 48 hours, can't you? just post roll everyday and be a mean mother fucker.....change your voice.....the bitch isnt your voice anymore....YOU ARE THE VOICE.....repeat after me and respond with....

NOW I AM THE VOICE!!!!!!!
Quit 04.02.2012 --- HOF 07.11.2012 --- 5 Years 04.02.2017

Now I am the Voice. I will LEAD, not follow. I will BELIEVE, not doubt. I will CREATE, not destroy. I am a Force for God. I am a Leader.

Defy the odds. Set a new standard. STEP UP!

24+2 and sucking like hell.
You know what 24+2 stands for?? Let me tell you what I believe it stands for.

26 hours of you taking you life back. 26 Hours of you telling the nic bitch no more! It tells me that for at least one day you haven't went down to the store and threw away your hard earned money on something that is killing you, causing you to lie, and taking you dignity. It stands for 26 hours of freedom. It stands for you having enough balls to say, enough is enough. If I was you I would go outside and shout to the world that you've had enough. F--k the nic bitch!!

Start getting your mind right. You don't need it and never did. It is a sick addiction that has done nothing for you, but take, take, take.

You are one day into making your life so much better than it was. Take a good look at yourself,, something that is making you feel like this can't be good for you.

I quit with you today! I say we wake up tomorrow and do the same.
Nothing I can possibly add, this is so well said. So I will just say I second this perfect reply. I quit with you today.

The product is worth the process.
