I deserved all that and more. Sorry, but I wasn't intending to come off as an asshole, but I am (an asshole). I am an addict. I never denied that fact. Maybe I am just being stubborn, but I want to have as much control as possible. That may be foolhardy, but I'm trying.
So have you taken control and flushed your can? Have you posted roll? Thats how this works. We quit. We quit every fucking day. Take control if you have a set. Quit being a fucking slave.

I wouldn't bet a nickel on your quit. Flush your shit and prove me wrong.
Challenge accepted. The dip I was saving for the last time is now in a dumpster. I also posted roll. Thanks for telling me what I needed to hear, because I was really thinking about flaking.
You admit your an addict, but you still want to have as much control as possible. I hate to tell you, but you haven't been in control for a long time. If you couldn't be in control then, what makes you think you can be in control now?

I didn't see you in roll call either. You accepted basshaug's challenge, so post up and let's get this moving. Get in with the Titan's before we lock that door up. I can't speak for the next group, but I know there are some hard motherfuckers in October that will ride your ass when it needs it. And if the difference between you caving and staying quit is my intervention, then I don't give a damn whether you ask for advice or not. I do give a damn about your quit
DirtyH, I consider his post in October as a day 1 roll.

Now dustin, if you want to take this accountability thing to the next level, I'm PMing you my number. I'll check in on you to make sure you are holding up your end of the bargain by posting roll each day, and I invite you to hold me accountable each day as well, I'll never be cured from this addiction, and neither will you. All I can do is quit each and every day.
Dustin - great to hear. I hope the tin is sprinkled in the dumpster and not just tossed in. My pathetic ass would've had no problem dumpster diving for a tin. It's tough love in here, but we are ALL addicts and have ALL been in your shoes and frankly the tough love is usually what we need to hear. I came in like a pussy in my intro whining about a sore and wanting to see my daughter do ballet. I was rightly called on it and I thanked the guys who called me on it. I am now QUIT and will not dip today.

That's how this works - I'll quit with you today and if/when tomorrow comes I'll wake up and post roll and do the same thing.
Thanks guys. I'm still hangin' on.
I'll say this Dustin, your 180 totally surprised me. So here's my way of thinking about your quit. Clearly being "in control" is big for you. What gives you more control dipping or quitting? By my way of thinking when you are dipping your nicotine addiction is in control, when you are quitting, although it sucks, you are in control. The advice you get on this site...And truthfully why else use this site if you don't want advice, support, and accountabiity...is to help you take back "control"
Now that you have committed and posted in October (believe I saw a day 2), it's grueling at first but focus on making it to the next hour, then to the afternoon. Mini wins throughout the day and suddenly you wake up posting a day 3. I don't regret any second on my 82 days of quit however I do concern myself with posting an 83 in the morning.
