Thank you all so much for the encouragment. Just for future reference I am a female lol. I know that isn't seen very much. I am reading up in the welcoming center now bought some sunflower seeds and threw my can in the trash. I'm gonna do this!
There are a lot of badass girl quitters here. Let's get your name on roll and you can be one too! Welcome. You are in the best place to really quit once and for all. You can do this!

I have to young kids and i try to use them for motivation but i still can not seem to overcome this.
This isn't at all uncommon. Most of us had really legitimate reasons to quit that you would think would be sufficient motivation. Ultimately, quitting requires the most important reason to quit. You must quit for yourself!!! For me I tried to quit for my wife when we got married. Then for each milestone in our marriage and our daughters life. Then for the grandkids. It wasn't until I wanted it for me more than anything else that I started succeeding. After 1300+ days I still decide every day that I want to live life nicotine free. Posting your promise publicly is a powerful tool, use it!

If I can overcome this, anybody can. You gotta be in it to win it though. Get your ass on roll and QUIT. Tell the nic bitch to take a hike. Toss her to the curb. Get in live chat (upper right) and get some support. It can be done. I did it 646 days ago and am free from the chains.

Welcome! Head on over to the welcome center read up on posting roll. Then head over to March 16 and post roll. Throw all your shit away. Drink lots of water, exercise a lot! Use gum, candy, fake, or seeds to keep dip out of your mouth. Come here and rage at us we can take it. Do not take it out on your family. You can do this. You just have to WANT TO!

Being an addict is easy. Quitting is hard. Only the toughest among us can quit. Are you bad ass, sir? Are you a man of your word? When you shake my hand, can I know that you will honor your promise?

The program here is really simple. There are quit groups, and when you quit you make damn sure you have no nicotine of any sort anywhere, and then you post your name on that list. For that calendar day, you stay quit. It is your promise to yourself, but more importantly your team on this site - others fighting the same battle as you - that you will stay nicotine free for that day and that day only.

The next day you wake up...before you do snything, I mean first thing here dude, you post your word again. Same promise- one day only. Repeat.

Team mentality dude. Did you play football? Imagine being the star player on your team with 5 minutes left and deciding you wanted to go get a cheeseburger, so you call for a time out, get your team in a huddle, and tell them to fuck off then you throw your jersey on the ground like a douchebag and walk to your little pussy scooter and go get a burger. Are you that guy? If your word is good, you aren't. If you can't keep your word, if you aren't willing to put your name on that list, you are that dude.

I'll watch for your name to pop up on the list.

Hello scratch! Go to welcome center. Learn to post roll! Read on here how you are an addict. Read how quitting makes you anxious and angry, read why you need to post roll! Once you do your part we'll be here for you every day. One day at a time is how we do it here and we quit for ourselves! I quit with you today!

I need some help with this
« on: December 05, 2015, 02:49:00 AM »
Hello everyone,

I have been trying to quit for a few months now but i always fall short and cave in. I want to quit so badly but everytime i realize that i do not have any dip i start getting mad and anxious. I have to young kids and i try to use them for motivation but i still can not seem to overcome this. I have gotten to my breaking point and feel like this loosing battle is never going to end. I really need some advice. Thank you all in advanced.
