I'm done with Copenhagen

Day 13--You guys crack me up. Today has been so much better. I finally slept halfway decent last night which was welcomed. I finished up my midnight shifts yesterday morning so ill be on a halfway normal schedule for the next 3 weeks until my midnights roll back around. Cravings have been tolerable and the fog is thinning out.

Lots of my fellow Killers have been reaching out which kicks ass. Thanks for helping a brother out.

Oh and by the way, Im a pretty big dude so by default, Im a pretty good hugger. LOL :D

I am pretty new to this quitting stuff myself but I have a decent handle on telling when someone has the fortitude to really quit and when they are just going to post roll for a week, not get involved in the forum and just go away in 7 days.

Punkin has got some serious quit in him, heck, they have a pretty strong looking group.

Plus, with a name like Punkin...I just kind of wanna hug him.... :o

'getaroom'


haha I agree, though, Punkin is clearly a fine addition to KTC!

Stop acting like we don't hug...... :wub:

'Kiss' and we do this...

Day -12. I'm about to lose my freaking mind. It's the lack of sleep, the diet, no chew and life in general. These cravings are back with a vengeance. There's no way in hell that I'm gonna cave but I have killed 2 regular sized bags of seeds a shit ton of fireballs and a can of smokey mountain. I'm pulling a double tonight at work so I have some time to get some inspiration on here( I have a pretty laid back job). I hope this makes sense because my mind is all over the place. I won't cave. NAFAR

This is the kind of attitude that pulls you through! You will succeed. You are awesome.

I quit with you today Punkin!

Think of the kind of crazy that your sobriety is giving you as a new kind of high that is always changing being something new to look forward to. Its a new addiction that you are giving yourself and its the best one that you can have. Caving only takes it away. ruins that new high you are earning. Live on brother man. Proud to be quit with you.

Nice Punkin,
Listen to the warning W2W gave you don't reward yourself with lick of poison. You are the new and improved Punkin. By the time Nov 25th gets here your blood pathways should start to open back up getting oxygen rich blood to healing parts. The 25th text me I will post for you give your promise to someone. QLF Punkin

There's no way in hell that I'm gonna cave

This mindset is what I look for in quitters punkin. This is the mindset that myself, worktowin and every other quitter with days behind us developed. You have to in order to succeed. You've posted, made up your mind that it don't matter how bad things get. Your determination and drive will get you where you want to be.. Free and in a better place. These first 2, 3, 4 weeks are tough, but they are so worth it. There will be a day not to far away that you will look back on these days and think,,,,, It was so worth it!! I'm quit with you today my friend.

This addiction is a sneaky one. See, you "met your first goal." You have a date for your surgery, and so your mind is conditioned to reward itself with a nice shot of poison after attaining a big goal. The mind games at this stage in your quit are tough. But there is no way you'll give in, because your name is on the roll and you are a man of integrity. Today you've got this.

November 25 is going to be a great day for you. But 12 days ago you really started the "new punkin" phase of your life. Keep doing what you are doing odaat and reach out if I can help.

Paradise ahead... The road on day 12 is still full of potholes, twists, and turns. But there aren't any snakes - and it seems maybe just a little smoother. This is the best decision of your life.

Day 11 quit. Pretty much the same today. Mild cravings that were easy to handle. Today I got the call that Ive been waiting on. I got the dates for my surgery. It's a month later than what was expected but at least I was approved by my insurance. There wasn't much doubt since meet all the criteria. My surgery is scheduled for November 25th so if I don't post roll that day then that's my excuse, lol. The part that I'm most mad about is that I'll be missing the opening week of rifle season for deer here in West Virginia. Hell, I'll probably be laid up all season. I plan on bow hunting up until then though. Gotta fill them freezers! Thanks to all the folks that reach out. It's so encouraging and I'm doing my level best to do the same.

Congrats to you on making day 11!  all the best to you in surgery!

Hey Punkin! This shit is the toughest thing I have ever done.. and I haven't lived a plush fucking life. I quit with you man! Keep on keeping on!

It sure as hell is but if it was easy, everybody would do it. You have to be one badass mother to bust that bitch in the mouth. Stick and move dude. There's no such thing as a fair fight. Kick the nic bitch in the cooter then bust her in the mouth, lol. We got this man. I quit with you today
