Sorry to bring me to the front (April has some good quitters and they deserve their space) but I want to YELL how much I hate tobacco companies. I had my head buried in the sand for a long time but finally I am waking up. Thanks to all that is holy that I found this site! I Just watched a show on Phillip Morris and how they are exploiting third world countries (Indonesia specifically) because they are  losing customers in the US and Europe. Advertising to the poor and uneducated kids to make a dollar cuz they are losing customers here.  You greedy MOTHERFUCKERS! You know you are selling death! Well, there are 20,000 of us here at KTC telling you to eat our shit you greedy FUCKS! How can anyone with a soul work for you fucking lying dickweeds!?  We can quit you, you Fucking Dicks! You will rot in hell!  I swear to all my brothers and sisters here, and everyone else I love that you PUKES will never get another dime from me! Find a better way to make a living you lying assholes! If there is an afterlife, (I believe there is) YOU ARE ALL SCREWED!
What was the show you watched? Do you have a link? I'd kinda like to watch that.
Don't know how to copy link over on my kindle. It's by Vanguard films and its called sex,lies  cigarettes. It's 45 min long.
Nice Video Rdad. It helps keep the anger going and remain quit. Thanks for posting!

My thoughts exactly. I won't give them another cent, and I hope there is a special place in hell for the big-shots at UST.

rdad, you know I'm a fan. Each time someone writes "badass quitter" you can consider yourself in that club. You're all business and you take this shit seriously; because of such you have earned the respect among vets and newbies alike, including myself. Congrats on 40 days brother; each one of those days of hard work is a reason to stay quit. QLF and get #41.

This is so dead on. I was putting this shit in my mouth for almost 30 years knowing it was bad for me...but not really knowing. I didn't really want to know how bad it was. I have done the reading and looked at the pics. Now I know. It's like a light bulb goes off when realize what you are really doing and it will give your quit more strength.

Fuck him.  Find a new person to help.

He pussies out...fuck him too and find someone else.

Some people will roll in and out like the tide, no matter what others do in an attempt to help them.   You did your best.  They did not leave because of you.  They left because it was too hard and they were too weak.

Don't take it personally.

Quit on...
Perfect!

Quote from: rdad
I have been thinking a lot today about this journey we are on and wanted to get it down so I don't forget these feelings. Some ups and downs lately (but mostly ups) Getting longer and longer glimpses of what life can be like without nicotine. For me this quit has become my main job. It is the most important thing in my life right now because it (my quit) is new and fragile. I am trying to add layers of armour (thanks Sir Derek) each day. Working out, eating healthy,drinking less. I need to get physically stronger. Being a quitter is tiring.

So I have been feeling pretty good lately and I thought I might,possibly,perhaps have enough energy to reach out to a "newer newbie" than me. Texted support, how you doing, call for any reason...... since Christmas, nothing, gone. SADNESS.

If you are still quit come back and post. If you caved come back and quit. To anyone struggling, the two main things that are helping me are this site and studying.

You have to know your enemy to kill it. Please read to understand everything about nicotine, what it does to our brains. A little understanding can take away a lot of the fear you are feeling about saying goodbye to this poison. I could write all night about what I have learned, but if you REALLY want this you make the effort. This is on you. No-one can do it for you. Help-yes. Support- yes. Babysit you- NO. These last 40 days have been the hardest,yet most rewarding days for me that I can remember.

I'm getting pretty old and I wish I had done this a long time ago. Do not waste one more second as a slave. Take your life back. There are literally thousands of quitters here that want the same for me and you. Someday I will meet them and thank them for helping me find my way home.

There.....I feel a lot better.

Some people come to play quit. Some people come and act quit. You came to just plain quit! Great job! You still have no idea how much better things get. Stay the course, never again for any reason.

HoF Speech


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.
