You can always come back here Robbie. The requirements are just 1) possible tongue-lashing from those of us who didn't cave, and 2) answer the three questions about what happened, why it happened, and most importantly - WHAT is your plan to avoid it happening again (ie, what will you do differently next time that same situation happens).

PS - The nic bitch had a deep hold on ALL of us, not just you. I dipped for almost 30 years, starting at age 15. Your quit isn't harder than anybody else's, thats just another lie she's telling you. Yes quitting is hard, but its very much doable. Thousands of us do it everyday.

If you're gonna quit, then lets do it. Commit to it, every single day for that day.

You've been around long enough to know...

One intro per individual.

Go with your original, warts and all, so that your previous stoppage and failure is a motivation all its own.
Well, it’s one louder, isn’t it? It’s not ten.

Logged in tonight and read comments by guys I went through 1k+ days with made me cry. I feel horrible how I let may 2013 down and everyone else who spent the time to help me.

My now 5yr old son asked me to quit tomorrow. The fucking nic bitch has a deep hold on me... Not sure if I will be allowed back either. Fucking fog is going to be thick...

You were a loyal poster and brother. I remember the day you caved like it was yesterday. I'm not going to say that I understand, because there is no excuse for caving, but brother I could read the pain in your words that day. I'm glad you've got a smart kid. You owe him, and yourself, this quit. You've got my number. Text me.

Welcome back brother. One day at a time....
You can always come back, but be ready to bare your soul and answer hard questions. The formula is easy, especially after 1000 days, what the fuck happened?
Some of my fondest and clearest memories are peeing in places that aren't bathrooms.

I wish i knew how to tag a thread for quick reference. This is one to look at when you think the bitch is whipped. 1040. WHAT THE FUCK. That is so far down the line, only a bullshit excuse fits. Guess what, look back at my posts...I'm going through a serious rough patch with my wife that may very well end in divorce soon. Yet, I came on here, vented, and was hammered with support. THATS THE KTC way, thus i could post 75 days today. Not this doucher.

HOLY SHIT.
I am not the most active poster on this site but I do take the support seriously.
Every day I try to read another success story in the introductions.
What happens today I read for 45 minutes only to find this at the end.
A 1040 day CAVE of all things.
What the fuck dude grow a pair.
QUIT ON!!!!!!!!!

Hey guys robbie here for one last Feel Good Friday with the May2013 class

I am proud as hell to quit with everyone of you. You all helped me through some really tough days. The early fog, the attempts time after time for the nic bitch to creep back in. I overcame triggers and stayed strong with all of your help. Unfortunately I will not make it past day 1040 (no comma anymore), I write this to you with Skoal straight in my lip. My wife surprised me with a special lunch today by leaving me and not letting me see my 3 year old son and my old dog that only has a short time left. I no longer want to stay strong and stay quit. I am sorry for letting all my May bothers down.

Peace and strength to you all, you will always be in my thoughts.

Keep on Keepin on, on a not so feel good friday

robbie signing off on day 1040 :(
This is what weakness looks like.

Pathetic.

Don't be this fool.
That Skoal make your wife come back, buy your dog more time, or change the shit storm that just fell on you in any way? Was it the cure all you thought it would be?

Don't thank us and then spit in our face by giving up with a lip full of shit.

You didn't learn a god damn thing here and everyone's efforts (including mine) were completely wasted on you.
I have a 10th of the quit going that robbie had and yes that was a long list of problems hitting all at once - it sounds awful and it is sad that anyone would have to go through shit like that. Adding the cave to that list doesn't make any sense to me at all. What on earth does nicotine do to help with any of those problems? :blink:
