today will be my last day using dip. i've already read so many great inspirational posts and so much positive feedback and i'm looking forward to joining the community. the welfare bear is not going to control my actions anymore!
How about making the last dip that was in your lip the last one. Flush the can and be done now. This site is amazing and the peeps here are ruthless. Dump it now and be quit NOW. Don't wait for tonight. Check out the Welcome Center and learn how to Post Roll. It is your contract to yourself that your quit.
That's right don't even wait another hour, quit now! That's the best way to start.
just dumped it. literally flushed it down the toilet cuz that's where that shit belongs. thank you! i'm very excited and very scared.
No fear Bv. Mind over matter. 72 hours of withdrawl sucks, and sucks hard. Drink gallons of water, go for a run, pushups and situps by the dozens. Exhaust your body and your mind will get tired, too. You can do this, one day at a time.
We don't quit forever. We quit 5 minutes at a time if we have to. Or an hour at a time. Or i'm going to quit for this 6 hour drive. Or just til I lay my head down. Give yourself a short term goal and NAIL it. You can do this. Don't worry about tomorrow. Worry about quitting until you fall asleep (I suggest Nyquil or similar for tonight).
Exchange numbers with people in your group via PM. Your June '14 group (very good posting roll by the way, perfect) is your sounding board for roll and everything else. Post a message stating that you'd like to swap cell numbers to text people with. When you hit a bad crave, send a message. Just tallk about the weather, or baseball, or cooking, or women, or whatever. Build relationships with people that are going through the exact same thing you are going through.
Read. Read the welcome center link up top. Read other people's introductions. Read the sticky posts at the top of the introductions. Read the links in my signature. Read the words of wisdom. Spend time in Live Chat (link in upper right corner). This is all knowledge that you let sink in. Knowledge is more than power in this case my friend. It is the very tool that allows you to win every battle in this war. It's the gun, rifle, tank, mortar, and bomb all in one.
I'm quit with you today.
