Thanks for the support everyone. I want to continue my quit. I never caved, I have enough integrity to not mess with people. That would not hurt anyone but myself. I made the choice to stay away from Facebook and the internet. I wasnt thinking I guess. I logged in the other day to write that post and to show my mom my support system for quitting. My mom quit ciggaretts and we are  trying to get through to my dad, a dipper for 30 years. I dont have an excuse for not posting, understood.
I would like to ask a scenario. What if Im on a camping trip without internet access. Should I post In advance, I will be out of town. I got family in the mountains and they dont have recpetion or a computer.

As always. thanks for the support and Ill try to get my head out of my ass.

You control your own actions in this world.

No more, no less.

If you decide to not to use the system knowing that you are expected to be here, that is your actions. Stop looking for your out. If you try to use the system and forces of god stop you, then you can be forgiven. But I would suggest telling us ahead of time if you see a problem arising.

The problem is that there are guys here posting from war zones. There are guys that post despite deaths, bad days, phenomenal days, floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, swollen anal glands, etc.

Surely, these trump your need to "unplug" from your support system. I guarantee when you used you never, ever found yourself without chew or a backup plan.

You can do this.

Don't let yourself be purposely or accidentally purged from here. Own your quit.
Amen. One thing I realized is that I am an addict. Having an addicted mind isn't all bad.

Because of my ninja dipping and this addiction, I learned how to be creative. I get a lot of kudos at work because I am one of the best brain-stormers and solutions provider to our company.

I think it is because I became an addict. If I didn't have money, I still found ways to get a dip. I had great hiding places. Excellent routes and systems to dip in peace and well, in public without family, friends or people even suspecting let alone knowing I dipped.

Don't sell yourself short. If you want to post roll every day you can do it. If you were on the mountain and needed a dip, what would you do? Come down the mt or have someone bring it up. Maybe make new friends that looked like fellow dippers?

I didn't have reception in Lake Powell twice. It is very important to build relationships here. Trade numbers and make friends. I had a support team that when they couldn't get online, I would post for them and they returned the same favor in kind.

You just have to make sure that you make the promise to battle today and it helps you fight the triggers because your friends count on you to fight with them.

Just to be frank. Superfly, you are fucked.

If you don't post roll, you either caved already and are acting like you didn't; (That is an integrity issue you should fix) or you will cave because you aren't focused or believe that you are an addict.

Get your head in the game! If you caved, come clean and post day 1. If you are lucky enough that you haven't caved, you need to realize that you are an addict and follow this program with exactness!

If you don't listen to the vets or think posting roll is a minor detail, you might as well drift off into the sunset of slavery to addiction.

We are here to support you but if you are a cocky kid that thinks you will get love, understanding, compassion or nice try points, go to church for that candy ass false love.

We QUIT period here. If you follow the program with exactness, you will win. If you think you can pick and chose or change the rules of the program, you are not quit for life.

Start posting roll. If you don't, I wont waste my time even acknowledging your weak as shit quit. Just go back and hump your can of tobacco if you love it so much.

Fuck tobacco and fuck all the candy ass quitters. Quit or don't, that's your choice but don't waste my support for real quitters if you are just faking it to feel like you are really trying. THERE IS NO TRY. YOU DO IT or YOU DON'T. Whatever you choose, you own it.


You may be right on most of this . But "you" should think about what you write here or anywhere. "Church, Candy ass false love". Christ is all, the begining and the end. EVERYTHING else falls short of his love. I appreciate your help, but, you are no saint my friend. 'winker'

Get to know those three questions superfly.  Start preparing your answers for your inevitable cave.  When it happens, I expect those three questions to be answered better than they ever have been answered before.

Fuck.  Not sure why your future cave is pissing me off so much right now.  Fuck man, you have the tools right fucking here.  Fuckin' use em.  Fuck.

Hopefully I'm wrong.  Stay Quit.  But I sure ain't liking the smell in here what-so-fucking-ever.............
I'm sticking with my earlier post superfly......your quit (hopefully you still are) still has a funny aroma to it.

Post Roll. That's the main deal here. You're here for a reason, may as well do it the way all these vet's are, your current game plan seems to be a recipe for a cave.

My .02 here- your "staying away from technology" also equals you staying away from accountability.

Don't believe me. Go read every cavers story on this site. The common thread in every story is they stopped posting roll, started to drift and didn't feel accountable to their brothers.

Post Roll every day or communicate with someone and have them post via text, email or call. Get as many number of your group as you can and use them frequently. Keep in touch with your quit brothers. Send them a PM, text or call every few days just to keep an open line of communication. Give them your email address. Make it IMPOSSIBLE for you to go a day without several people contacting you all day if you don't post roll.
You say you're staying away from technology but I bet you had a phone within arms reach most times of the day.

Terrible excuse to drop your accountability. Leaving yourself an out "just in case" someone pulls out a holiday cigar or something?

Don't play with fire. You need a phone number just give me a PM... I'll gladly accept a phone call or text message to post for you.

Ive never made it passed 90 days on my own. Lets put that number to rest.

Still quit, Day 22.
Let's get through day 22 first.

Then we'll worry about 23.

Plan to put it to rest? Sure thing.
But don't get ahead of yourself because there are a lot of days in between that are easy to look past.
If you look ahead to future matches, today's match will beat you. Day 91, 101, 201 etc. will be here soon enough.

Focus on winning only the match today. All your effort, thoughts, and will power should be to fight your battle today. After all, if you don't win your match today, your undefeated record is over.

Never, ever, ever use your brain power to prepare for future matches with the nic bitch. You are an addict and as such, your mind is programmed that forever quit is impossible.

You have to have the right strategy. (Forever is possible but your mind can't believe that) You only worry about today. If you wake tomorrow, repeat.

Its okay to look back and understand your journey. Post roll, keep your word and repeat. Stick to that and you will be able to fight the urges.

Stress about long term quit and your struggle with little nic will put you into danger. You quit only for today my friend.


Thanks guys. 'zombie'
