Couple quick questions to ask have you set a "quit day" before? How'd that work for you. We both know the answers. Planning to quit doesn't work. Quitting is all that works.
Dump it.
Post roll.
Get involved with this site
Rinse and Repeat.
This. I think I made every New Year's Resolution for 5 years to be quit dippin' n spittin' and I tried and failed. This time I just thought one day 'I don't want this shit anymore' and I've been hella better.

Posting roll is amazing. I'm not only making a promise to myself but to others going through the exact same shit as me that I won't dip today. I think about it constantly but I remember that about 50 or so others are doing the same thing today in my HOF group that saw me post and would be soooo fuckin upset if I pussied out.

Quit. Don't look back. It sucks but it gets hella better.

Hey grizz, checked may, didn't see your post. If you are reading this....just post day 1. seriously it takes a million pounds off your chest. don't listen to naysayers, just do it. If you want pm me and we will exchange numbers. I am a few hours away from 30 days. dude i am telling you right now, these guys seem like barracuda's and they are, however when you post day 1.....they will be your barracuda's to help you with your quit. I am pulling for you, even if you post a month from now....just post. don't let your goal of setting a day, which you only have a few more hours, shame you into not posting. just do it. even if you don't pm me, we will talk. the water is nice over here....the koolaid is sweet with freedom. give me a yell.
Is that you John Wayne? Is this me?

Want vs Decision

So what happened to those that disappeared to never be heard from again? While we can't be sure of a cave, it is possible that they just didn't want this bad enough. For those of you who are left: How bad do you want to quit? Because your success is predicted with perfect accuracy from the true answer to that question. Most of my 33 years dipping I strongly "wanted" to quit. If quitting's a strong "want" in your life- you will fail. It may not be today, it may not be next week, you may make it to your HOF day and beyond, but eventually you will cave. For those of you in this category- no advice you receive is going to be effective over the long term until you decide to shut the door on nicotine. Until you make the decision that you will pursue a lifestyle of quit. Go look at the cancer pics, do some research on what big tobacco has done over the years to keep you as their Marionette....read about Tom and Jenny Kern. go over to whyquit.com and read some of the stories there. Do whatever it takes to get you to the point of closing the door on nicotine. While we can give advice on how to quit, we cannot close the door for you. That, dear reader, is up to you.

If you are truly sick of this stupid addiction, really sick of being the lackey of big tobacco, sick of worrying about cancer, sick of hiding your addiction from others, and you want this quit more than anything else..and you drink the KTC kool aid - you will succeed- guaranteed. The program is foolproof:

Post Roll
Honor your promise for today
Repeat

One last thing: Quitters find a way to quit. Caver's find a way to cave.

Be a quitter.
^ Truth.

You speak the gospel, sir.

Tomorrow is the big day!
Holy shit! We got us a quit day party! Woohoo! I haven't been to one in months.

Remember, show your sincerity with premium imported meats and only the freshest daisies for a quitter planning a quit day party. Oh the joy. I'd bring balls for him but all I have is my own. May be he could help me carry them or something.
5 to 1 odds he don't show tomorrow. Takers?

Had you quit on the 25th.. You would have probably started feeling a little bit better by today...
Dippy you look like some poor bastard who has gigantism of the balls. Gigantic quit balls.

Proud of you bro. Excellent quitting. Excellent support. You are protecting your quit. This is what matters.

Yeah...ol Grizz, he hasn't even been back to the site in the past 2-3 days. Take note all you other new and wanna-be quitters...

You might read this thread and come to the conclusion that the mean ol CoachDoc ran him off...after all, CoachDoc told him not to even bother coming back on Sunday...when CLEARLY this is a quitter that wanted to quit and needed our support, compassion and understanding....

Bullshit. I might have used to feel a little bad when I would throw down the gauntlet like I did here and then watch the "quitter" never come back. Guess what boys and girls? He was never a quitter. If he comes back and posts Sunday and makes it 2000 days (that's a little over 5 years) then I'll gladly eat my words and say "I was wrong"

Until then, the simple fact that he wasn't amn enough to quit right then and there...I ain't losing any sleep over it...
Come on Grizz....I WANT you to come prove me wrong...truly
Blah...Blah...Blah...You keep TALKIN....I'll keep QUITTIN

I'm not here to make friends, I'm here to support YOUR quit.

Better odds on Gmann actually getting the "change" operation. Think you got to go to Europe or St. Paul...one or the other to do it though.
Greetings from st Paul, bitches.

Grizz, if you're not going to quit today, at least don't "GUESS" about posting on Sunday. I'll be here posting roll and quitting tomorrow. That's 100% guaranteed.
