Yea... yea.... I know..... I know.... I sounded like a pussy, hell I was a pussy.... I was a slave of a man. Not anymore!!!! I am "one of the brothers", yea....

Actually I just read it again and came to the realization that, nic had me acting like a pussy, kTC has me acting like a free man. Thank you KTC, Fuck You nice bitch.
You are one of the brothers, but I am also glad to say you are also a leader in my group! And thank you for that! We all come here in a fucked up position, but not all take a role as a leader. You did. And I for one am grateful because you have been paramount to my quit. Both when I caved and came back and still today! In the words of Erussell.... You are a BADASS!!!

Definitely a good intro to read. I forgot you were a Baby patch kid. Thanks for the memories. Just to funny.

The poison sucks. I hate it. I hated it this morning, I hated it at noon, I hated it at supper and I hate it tonight. I enjoy hating it so much I'm going to wake up tomorrow and start over hating it. I quit with anyone that wants to hate it with me.

I want to remember today. Today was a kick in the balls at work, seriously it was a challenging day. Yet the Nic bitch never had a real opportunity. Sure I crave, I crave everyday, but I make a decision everyday (500 times some days) that she can kiss my ass, her days in my life are gone , that's my choice. My resolve is so steady due to each of you.

The beauty I wanted to record today is that with the day being so relentless, one would assume I would have craved more today, yet I craved less. As the day got busier I kept forgetting about the poison. Knowing that everyday is not and will not be like this, it was nice and worth recording and a cool reminder that "better days are on the way". In chat today some bad asses told me to prepare for the 70's. Although I may dread, I do not fear for I have each of you!
Don't dread it man... welcome it! I've realized something recently. Some people may go "duh"... it took me awhile I guess :)

I've been living my quit wondering when the hole in my life (aka... no more dip) will start to heal over. Screw that.

I've been looking at it wrong. I have no hole in my life. I'm not "missing" anything, neither are you. We have been released from bondage bro. We broke that chain. We should no more miss the dip than a cancer survivor misses the tumor taken out of them. Screw that.

We are free.

I've been hearing about the dreaded 70's funk. I'm at 72 right now. Frankly... I don't care. Bring it. I'm not being cocky or complacent... I'm being confident. All my tools are in place - I talk to my brothers AND badass sisters everyday in chat or by text - I post roll 100% - I live on this site. I AM QUIT. Some days suck and I have to slog through but, so what? You have to do that with other shit too and it doesn't own you... neither do the craves I squash on a regular basis. My choice... QUIT. Dlee said something either in his intro or in someone else's... I can't remember right now, but it was, "Quitting is fun you pussies"! I freakin' loved that so much I laughed out loud! That was profound for me. Life is choices... I choose to stop worrying so much about a crave, or a dip dream, or a trigger. I have a new freedom to enjoy. Dip don't own me.

Screw that.

Quit on Er!
Now that was a bowl of applejacks for breakfast right there!!! AJ your right and I'm going to follow that advice Bro. Now I will have no fear and no dread, that truly will b freedom, thanks AJ!
I read it earlier. Good stuff aj.
A kick in da ballz? Erussell - 59 days ago you had a patch on. And you got on this site and told everyone about it! I gotta tell you, I'm still cracking up about that one. You have made such tremendous progress in the past 8.5 weeks... Keep kicking the nic bitch in the face! And I will keep laughing about the patch rash!!!
Yea I laugh about that too, awhile back you reminded me how I would react if I read that in an intro today, LMFAO I would go viral ha ha ha. I feel that i have came a long way and I apreciate you noticing WTW, yet the credit is largely due to this site, the support is.... Well what can I say! I apreciate you guys!

Bless you and the work you do on this site. You have come a long way and helped many people along your path, the true meaning of a Good Samaritan.

Hey brother!

Thank you so much for te inspiration for this Ode.  Brotherhood is indeed one of the most important aspects of a successful quit.  Damn proud to be quit with you.  Stay strong, stay quit.  Keep it real!!

Ode to Brotherhood

I never joined a frat, but this I know,
Their bond is strong, as brotherhoods go!
When seen together either day or night,
These brothers stick together, prepared for a fight.
There is no relation, their not bound by blood,
But wherever they are, they'll show their brothers some love.
And here on KTC, we have a brotherhood too!
We stand with each other; our quit to get through.
In fact I say there's no stronger bond to see.
Than that of our brothers keeping each other nic free.
We do it by txt, posting roll, and through chat.
Our battle is for life, and we're never turning back!
But unlike the frat, there are sisters among us.
We love 'em like family, even if they do fuss!
We battle the nic, like a well practiced team.
And look closely at that word, there's no "I" to be seen.
Truth be told, we know we can't win them all,
But that's not gonna stop us from answering the call.
So ERUSSELL you're right, this topic was ideal!
Shout out to you my brother, thanks for keeping it real!
That was great. I liked it a lot. Good job iizphilister.
Thank you for taking the time to write that. It is bad ass brother. Totally bad ass. Very inspiring.
I would rather lose to a cheater than win as a cheater.
