Hey gentlemen,
I appreciate your words of encouragement and am feeling good now on day 9. Day 1 was a bitch and left me in tears twice, but since then its improved everyday, and "the fog" if it has hit, has not been too bad yet. Feeling strong and feel good about my April quit group.

Nice work posting roll, LDP. Your story seems eerily familiar with mine, only I wished I would have curb stomped that bitch in college. I'm proud of your commitment thus far and I quit with you today! PM me if you want contact information. We can do this. We will do this. ODAAT.

Hey buddy.... I noticed you logged in today at 3:46. How you doing? What you thinking. You got some studs in your corner ready to help release those chains....
Life with nicotine is not cool... It steals away your potential.
Engage Maverick!

You've got some good advice there from some Bad Ass Quitters there LDP. You and I have the same quit date, and we'll get where we're going one day at a time, and together with our quit group. Hit me up if you want to trade numbers for support.

Congrats LD on being quit. Now stay that way. The best advice I can give is to pour everything you've got into being quit for these first few months. Make it a way of life. Use KTC to your benefit.

Glad you're here man. Quitting is hard, extremely hard, especially so when you're in college and surrounded by alcohol and dip. Not sure if you drink or not, but if you do be extremely careful that when you do, you're not allowing yourself any access to a tin. Those near breakdown moments you're having, we've all had them and all learned to ignore them. Take this thing seriously, post roll every day, get digits, reach out when you're struggling, and having a near breakdown won't be an option.
Wise men speak because they have something to say; fools because they have to say something.

Welcome LDP. First and foremost that 100 day thing doesn't mean a damn thing, period. You get that 100 day goal out of your head, it's a milestone, nothing more, nothing less. You quit every minute, every hour, every 24 hours and tomorrow you do it again.

Second, you don't HOPE for nothing. Addicts don't hope, we QUIT. Luck and hope will get you no where fighting this addiction. Shear gut wrenching desire and the understanding what it means to be an addict, will get you to every milestone, One Day At a Time, ODAAT.
Glad you found us. Never again for any reason.

100 days is not the end of the road, just a landmark on the horizon. I would say it's just a start.......

Take it one day at a time.

24 Hours In
« on: January 12, 2015, 08:56:00 PM »
Hello All!
I found KTC a couple months back, but I was not serious about quitting. Now I am.

I drove back to college yesterday to start the spring semester of my junior year. I decided while driving back that this semester would be different. I would no longer be a slave to the can. I used to have what I believed to be promise. I used to have confidence in myself. Now I am not so sure. At the end of these first 100 days, I want to be able to believe in myself once again.

Twice now in the last 24 hours I have been on the edge of breaking down and going to buy another can, but I opened up KTC and found the courage to hold on. I'm 24 hours in and 1/100th of the way home. I hope to grow more confident each day and hope I can keep coming here when I'm lost.
Best,
LDP
