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.

Worktowin - you are approaching an impressive milestone! 1 solid year of quit is coming your way!!!

365 days. Very, very impressive. I know that you have taken many of those days to not only quit, but also to help other quitters quit.

So, here is to you at 362 days. Not only are you laying out the standard and the example, you are a big help on this site.

Keep leading. Thanks for the help you gave me. Enjoy your holiday and your milestone. Congrats in a huge way.

Interesting day yesterday.

Around noon I get a call on my cell from someone I had supported on this site like crazy. A serial caver. He told, that again, he caved. Those of you that know me at all know that I don't like failure and that I support winners. I think this dude is the only person I've supported that has failed and not returned successfully, and it was driving me crazy. Until yesterday.

Because as I sat there and listened to his nonsense about stress, anxiety, and how he just didn't know why he went and bought that cigar and smoked it... I thought back to several of you that have shared your own stories of stress, money problems, job problems, marriage problems, anxiety... But you all kept your word.

Quitting is hard, but you can so anything one day at a time. If you are a man or woman of your word. If you have no integrity, this site isn't for you. And neither is the endless support of those of us on this site. The long and short of this rant is.... You need help, it's here for the asking. But if you wanna be shackled by nicotine, buzz off. We've  got better things to do.
Sorry W2W. It can become frustrating to see those that you have supported, fail. But please dont forget, that is their failure and not yours. A while back I realized that almost every newbie I had offered support to failed and disappeared. I had a habit of picking people up on day 1 or 2 and well, you know how that goes sometimes. I quit supporting for a while but that was wrong and shortsighted.

Thanks for all you do for this community. Please do not stop or slow down. You have helped many people and continue to be a strong presence in our group, at the same time support many groups around the site.

I could not agree more with your last line. You want to use nicotine that is your business, you want to quit? Well that is our business. You can't save them all W2W. People have to really want it bad. We know this quitting all too well. It is not for the faint of heart. Let's focus our attention on those that need it most. I don't know about you, but I am drawn to those new quitters that are crying out for help and who don't think it is possible. I suppose that is because that was me nearly one year ago.

Quit on.

Chin up brother, like Ryan said you have and continue to be a bad ass supporter on here. Cave affect each of us whether we like to admit it or not. You got this brother.

Stress sucks and this is one of the most stressful times for people, none the less I give you my word that I am quit, that is all I can control at this time.

There is no good reason for a cave, a cave is decision that person made to once again allow the nic bitch back into their life.......period. Like you said w2w many of us have our day to day struggles, life will continue to happen to us, but we can still keep our promise today. Quitters find a way to stay quit today!

I'll quit with you guys again today! QFQQ
We've seen people lose jobs, marriages, loved ones and just about anything else you can think of and remain quit. Any quitter needs proof i can throw some names your way. The excuses are for your own addicted brain if you cave.


Today I will remain quit with these fine gentlemen. Post roll and keep your word,, NO EXCUSE!!!!!
Fuck sticks...I think it is two words. NO RESOLVE...played a game...only thing is games usually end, with a quit there is no end...therefore they cant play, quit is not a game its a lifestyle. We can all take a lesson from this quitter about lifestyle changes he lives it daily. Proud to quit w you W2W
Complacency sucks, one moment of it is the difference between being a user and a quitter....OIB

It didn't mention you biggest accomplishment that of being a bad ass nicotine quitter though?
That is a bad ass accomplishment. Being published and getting in shape. Unreal! Multiple levels of inspiration there!
