Back again

[CoachDoc]

I'm on day 2.  Technically, day 5 but I screwed up on day 3...was a woos, "oh i can't do this" etc.  Had a half a piece of nicotine gum and an hour later a tiny chew. 
You know what?  It felt like shit.  my head spun.  I was woozy.  It didn't taste right.
I felt gross.

One thing I will say about doing this the CT way is I feel physically cleaner.    It seems like I have more energy.
Also, I have not flipped out on anyone.  I have been surprisingly calm.  A little short, yes.  Ready to blow a fucking gasket...yep.  But I haven't.  My bullshit meter is set to "notreallyputtingupwithanytoday" if that makes sense. 


I can't promise to quit forever or even next year.  Today though I can do this.

Technically? Bullshit! Technically, you fuckin caved! Not only gum but a dip...

You know what? until you realize what you are saying perpetuates your failures, you are doomed to technically keep repeating Day 1.

You have a quit plan written out? You have numbers? Before you answer yes, you better be sure...I want to see the plan posted....because YOU are gonna need it...and for brothers (and sisters) out there reading this, post up and let us know if he's reached out to get numbers from you...

Technically, this baby bird needs some feeding...or he gonna fall right outta the nest...and the big ol nasty nic cat is gonna eat him...over and over again...

And you have the nerve to post this on the intro of a new quitter?

You are at about day 4, very close to my date. I'm technically at 2. I've been off since Saturday. I slipped on Tuesday a tiny amount. I feel I am about off nicotine physically. One more day. The craves are better already. The fog is a tad better. We can do this.

There is no TINY amount...You just stick your toe in the can? BULLSHIT! This is a prime example of an addict justifying his behavior...and for you to say you slipped in the same paragraph as telling the new quitter that YOU can do this with her? I'll give you the same advice I gave a day or two ago...right now, you need to do less supporting of the quit of others and more focusing on your own...

Yeah, I'm a prick...but I WILL hold you accountable!

Okay minibeans. This is the place. My suggestion is embrace this. If you really are someone different, be that guy. Make the decision and stick to it. Focus on that goal.

Well, here I am again. I've tried about a thousand times to do this.
I have made it 60 or so days using NRTs in the past, this time I thought I would try sudden cessation. (Cold Turkey). Cold turkey sounds so horrid. Sudden cessation sounds better.

I've made it 24 hours with no nicotine and I haven't gone off the deep end. Yet.

I know I will feel better not chewing. I've chewed for almost 30 years. I'm 43 and in pretty good shape. I run..a lot...like 25 to 30 miles a week most weeks. I've done 6 marathons.

I want to quit chewing for a few reasons. Here they are.
1. I want to rest better at night.
2. I am tired of dealing with a the mini crisis that come up every day as to when I get my next chew.
3. Better breath and appearance.
4. Not under the thumb of a chemical.


This can either be really hard and the worst thing ever or it can really not be that hard at all. I decided this time it was going to be easy.

Bean, from reading your post I can tell your ready. The question now, how bad do you want this?

This will be one of the both simplest and most difficult things you ever do, if you want it, post your promise, keep your word, repeat. You will slay this beast.

Check out the welcome center up to the left. Post your roll. Commence the freedom.

I don't care what you call it.

Just fucking do it.

We can help you if you choose to utilize us.

We live by the simple rules, but they are not easy.

Post roll.
Stay quit.
repeat.

Get some numbers from your brothers and do a lot of reading. Thousands of quitters have proceeded you here, and have left their footprints for you to follow. Hell, most of us will stand beside you and tell you what to do to stay quit.

The secret to Quitting is controlling your actions. You are the only person that can put nicotine in your system. You are the only on that can keep it out. You control that. It does not control you.

Wish for easy...expect hell.

Go to the Welcome Center (link upper left). Read #4. Read it again. Read it real slow.

Read #3. Got to May 12 group and post Roll Call. This ye shall do as often as you think of LOOT. Actually, you'll do it everyday.

Welcome to the site.
