Ok so I'm new here and new to quitting. I'm on day 2 of being without my Grizzly bear and I knew this would be tough but didn't think this tough. I have eatin more sunflower seeds then I thought was humanly possible. I was real close to giving in today but instead I bought a can of Smokey Mountain. I dipped 2 cans a day for the last 10 years and my body is just lost without it. Tell me it gets easier and quality of life gets better.
It gets easier and life gets better. But you are gonna need to suck it up a bit first, because the next few days to a week are gonna kick your ass.
Now that the honest truth is out there, you know waht to expect from The Suck. So, what can we expect from you? Solid quit is the right answer. As a fireman and EMT I take it you don't give up on a patient/victim when things get tough, do you? Well, that same approach is what you need to apply here.
Yes, things are going to be tough, but you will get all the support you need from brothers and sisters here - and then some. For you to be successful in the quit, you need to be honset with yourself and us, know that once you post your word that you are quit for the day, we will hold you to it. Also, be active in the quit...read everything you can, post often and then read even more.
Welcome to the suck...stay a while.
