Falc - I am sorry to hear about some lack of support but as you know, this is YOUR problem and YOUR addiction. In the end it is up to you to make this fight...and I know you will and you will win!!!

I understand the no digits thing...if I was you I would do exactly the same thing...but log on to KTC anytime night or day if you need support!

And I 100% agree with you about posting first thing in the morning.

You are doing absolutely fantastic, and I am proud to quit with you today!

4TheWin I think the autocorrect has it right with anus!! NO I will not be putting any more anus in my mouth.

Thanks for checking in -- rough few days at work. Part of my job is training so this week has been full of classes for me. Used to be the time I looked for the nic hit to keep me rolling and "on" for the all day classes. Stuck with a few extra cups of strong coffee these past days to keep me going.

2 days of classes down -- 1 more to go. I bought a can of Coke today for the afternoon - -usually do not touch the stuff but the sugar and caffeine gave me the hit I needed to plow through. Another check box in things I can do nic free -- I am proud to have that list grow.

Stay strong my December brother!!
Proud to be quitting with you Falcon! You reached out to me when I first did my Intro and it was much appreciated! If you need anything, just PM me and my digits are yours!
Thanks guys! We have all been kicking the Nic Bitch's ass -- lets keep it up!

I appreciate you both for the support. I have to do this without digits (right now) -- not getting the happy helpful support on the homefront. More of "told you not to do that crap" and my own fault for ninja snussing and not making it as obvious as to how much I was using. The postings here and in the group pages have been a tremendous help to me.

Most helpful is my daily pledge to you both and ALL of my December Brothers -- that simple act every moring has been the KEY in me making 33 days so far. Anytime I have a craving or start to allow the addict part of my brain start talking I remind myself of the daily promise I made to myself and all of you. That REALLY REALLY puts things into perspective and give me the strength to stay Nic free.

Thanks for all of your postings! Stay Strong!

Proud to quit with BOTH of you and ALL of the Decemberists today.

Awesome work Falc!!! You are just killing this quit. Way to go girl!!!

Work stresses can definitely bring the craves....so I hope you have some digits handy if things get too out of hand...I assume you saw deamond's almost cave story today...that was scarey...so let me know if you want my digits.

Also, some bad stuff about IowaFF...

I have been stressing at work a bit too....so hang in there and proud to quit with you today and see you on roll nice and early tomorrow!

Best, Tim

How are you doing Falcon? Hopefully you are rocking it so well that adding to your intro no longer appeals...but if you write it we are inetrested! Quit on and to h*'ll with snus ... You know that autocorrect to anus, right...don't need to put anus in your mouth ever again!!!

Thanks 4TheWin - yeah my palms were really sweaty as well making the move to toss those Snus tins. I knew this group would push me to do the right thing so I was shared being totally open and honest. I knew what I had to do but my addict brain made 101 excuses why I should do the wrong thing. That's why this group works - No BS - no excuses - helps get it done.

I am trying to pay that kindness and support forward to other members.

Proud to have you in my quit group - and proud to quit with you today!

Hi Falcon: Your intro is a great read! My palms were sweating until you tossed the last of your snus cans...that was downright terrifying...

But it is amazing to see how far you have progressed in just these first few weeks. You are doing awesome and now you are even out helping newer members (like me) and offering support in our quit.

I feel lucky to have you in my quit group and am proud to quit with you today. It is a GREAT day to quit and keep fighting falcon!

OK Tough few days at work -- think I saw every minute click by on the clock today.

My brain still has the foggy feeling and I have to shake myself now and then to get my head back in the game. The people that sit near me are really curious since I have been popping up and down like a pogo stick lately. I walk around my 3x3 foot cube and stretch during long ass conference calls to keep my mind from drifting away.

I do have to keep lists as I have been forgetting things and not as "on the ball" as usual. Despite all of this I am determined to beat this and not let it beat me. I remind myself how far I have come and how much better I feel now as compared to last week, and so much better than the week before that.

I can not say thank you enough for this site. I have been reading posts / information and other stories and that is really making the difference.

Biggest is posting roll with my December Brothers and Sisters -- I will not let myself or them down. That simple act is so powerful and is making the difference this time.
Keep doing exactly what you are doing. Better days are ahead. Remember, you were an active addict for a long time... it is going to take some time to heal. But you will heal.

I'm quit with you today, sir.
Falcon,

You keep doing what you're doing, but also remember just how bad the first few days were. A long-time quitter once said, "never forget day one. The day you forget day one, you lose." Don't lose. You've got too much invested to go backwards from here! Quit with you today.
keep it up.
Great seeing you actively supporting others here and knowing the power of posting roll daily.
quit hard!
Thanks all for your support!!
