Closing out my Day 3 Quit. Hopefully I will be able to sleep some tonight. Have to be at work early tomorrow. Kind of excited to see what kind of day "Day 4" will be. Well, I'll be posting Roll first thing so however tomorrow turns out, it will turn out nic free. Peace

Getting through my Day 3 Quit and it sucks. I know how ridiculous that must sound. Water is wet, right? My addiction tells me that if I just have a dip everything will be great. And part of me believes it. A very significant part of me believes it. So, here I am, the Day 3 new kid on the block, giving anybody out there who might just have happened on to this post, my desert-island piece of advice: Go Post Roll Call. I posted Roll Call first thing this morning, making a promise to myself, to my July 2011 Quit Group Brothers, and to everyone on KTC, that today I will not use nic. I will punch, kick, slap, and crawl my way through the nest 60 seconds if I have to but I WIll NOT cave today. Posting Roll Call today is the reason my addiction has no power over me today. Today caving is not an option. It just isn't. Now, go post Roll Call. Peace

Great job Peace - keep going - we can do it bro

Greg-Thank you. It's such a roller coaster ride right now. I mean, it seems like every second is so different from the one before it. Yesterday I felt like crap. I hadn't slept the night before. The fog was really bad and I don't like not being "clear" in my head. Today, all of the "symptoms" are much better but the cravings are much, much worse. Honestly, I would much rather feel like shit and not be craving so badly. Today really is going to be a minute by minute day. But with all that being said, I will do whatever it takes to get through the next minute, because using nicotine isn't one of the options I have at my disposal. Today, I posted Roll Call and made a promise to you, and to all of my July 2011 Quit Brothers, and to every member of KTC, that today I will not use nic. Today I am not "trying to quit," today I posted Roll Call and today "I Am Quit." Peace

30-Thank you. I do look for your posts because I dipped for 30 years as well. I'm on Day 3 right now and part of me is just stunned. 2 days ago "Day 3" seemed like a million miles away. But it wasn't a million miles away, it was just 2 days away. And what's even better is that the Only day that matters, the only day that makes a difference, is just today. That's it. Nothing else. All I have to do is just get through today. Minute by minute if need be but today I posted Roll Call so today I am Quit. Today, caving is not an option. It just isn't. Thank you KTC and all you awesome Quitters! Peace
Keep it simple early on like you are doing. As you say minute by minute if need be.

You CAN do this, I like your mindset. Post your word and keep it.

STAY QUIT
Greg

It's 9:30 PM and it's my Day 2. Much rougher day than yesterday. Honestly, a lot of today just flat out sucked. The addiction keeps trying to crawl in to my head with all kinds of ridiculous excuses to go buy some Kodiak and be done with it. But I posted Roll Call this morning and so today using nicotine is not an option. It just isn't. Today I am Quit. Today I am just getting through moment to moment. Right now I am on this site because that is exactly where I need to be. This morning I posted Roll Call and today I am Quit. Peace
You are on the verge of tasting the victory and freedom that we have experienced. I am impressed with your quit. I quit with you.

Damn, it's all a bit strange right now but when your wallet, "which one is it? it's the one that says BAD MOTHERFUCKER on it, says Bad Motherfucker caving is not an option. It just isn't. Thanks MOA, that is one of my favorite scenes of all time. If it takes being a bad motherfucker today to stay Quit then that is excactlyt what I will be. Woke up and went straight to my computer and got my ass in here because I Posted Roll Call and today caving is not an option. It just isn't. TMP

You got the right attitude brudda. If the cravings get too bad try tearing open a tea bag and dip tea leaves. The physical pain (sleeplessness, night sweats, constipation, ANGER!!!, the fog, etc. should wain after about 3 days or so. Just remember that this shit is hard but your wallet says "BAD MOTHERFUCKER" on it! Im working all weekend if you need something shoot me an email.

It's 4 AM and I can't sleep. Bad fog. I already posted Roll Call. It was either that or go to the store and buy some Kodiak. But now since I have posted Roll Call going to the store to buy some dip is not an option today-today I am Quit. Posting Roll Call makes all the difference. TMP

Had dinner at my girlfriend's and now I'm back and I am planted here for the rest of the night. Amazing! All the triggers and moments that I have made it through today without dipping. The "fog" is strange. I am trying to post on some other member's threads but I don't really have anything to say. I just realize that there are others that are new here as well and I don't want to just be taking. I am still Quit today. TMP

Ready, I am up for it. Today, I am keeping my word and staying quit. Today, there is no retreat, no surrender. Today, caving is not an option, it just isn't. Thanks, Ready, I needed that! I've been on here for several hours now and that is what I needed. I'm heading to my girlfriend's place for dinner. When I get back I am going to immediately log on here and stay here until I crash. This is what I have to do to get through today. And today, caving is not an option, it just isn't. TMP
