That's awesome, keep it up! And thanks for your daily support of Project Mayhem!
Tremendous, good job. Enjoy those 30 days of freedom. You should now know and believe that you can stay quit. There will be ups and downs in your quit over the next 70 days and beyond. Keep building and improving your quit every chance you get. Increase your accountability to others, broaden it. Next up, changing that urge and longing to disgust. It is simple brain chemistry, that shit didn't do anything useful for you. It just helped your brain make those associations so you would keep using.
Good job!
Way to kick nics ass for 30 days. I know that feels good and just let it feel good until you need to buckle down again. The days are about to really start rolling for ya. Next thing you know it will be 50. Way to be brother.

You may not necessarily need the support, but others most definitely do. Be a shining beacon for others. Blaze the path for them to follow!!!

I know that this isnt that much of a big deal for everyone else but for me it is so back off

I went to the gas station for the first time today with money in my pocket and I had the ability to buy snuff if I wanted it. I did want it, but I didnt but any.

Before today, I havent had any money, so it was easy to not buy: today I had to see where I was.

I know I want snuff and will continue to want it, but with easy access to it, I can resist it!!!
Looks like a victory to me-- nice job! one more trigger defeated!
I think that's a pretty big deal ppolcyn! Nice job.
Congrats bro. I promise you, if you just stay focused on adding those +1's, it keeps getting easier and better. Proud to be quit with you. Awesome job !!!
Your right, for the typical person that isn't in their first few weeks of quitting one of the most addictive drugs known to man might not understand where your coming from.

On the other hand your 17, 000 + brothers and sisters here no exactly what your talking about and applaud. Proud of you.
Nice job, that is winning!
Nice victory! Your money is better spent elsewhere. Quit on!
One victory down. Keep adding those days and keep putting your boot on that "want." Every time that "want" pops up get really pissed at it and tell her to FO. I see those cans at the station and I want to burn down the entire station. Not really for full disclosure. :ph43r:
Nice win for sure, and I am with duathman here: eventually you will not want to buy a can you will want to pile them in the parking lot, spray 'em with $20 worth of unleaded, and light them somzabvitchz up! Keep +1ing it gets way better!

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.

I have been quite busy this past week. But I feel great and quit is still good. A few craves here and there but nothing major. Gonna rededicate my quit this week and try to be more active on here.
Good to hear you are doing good.
^^^ X2. Glad to read it, and glad you'll be coming back around more. Keep building the strength, accountability, and support!
Nice job! Keep that quit coming!
^^ what they said. its nice to recharge every once in a while.
The problem is not the problem.  The problem is your attitude about the problem.  Do you understand?

Draw Fire

If its too much trouble to post roll call, you could always fuck off.
