Day 1

[jake frawley]

caved again?

Been a week since he was last online. I'm guessing his fingers smell like shit right now and he is miserable! Wont be happy till he is dead or wakes up! Why is it that these guys insist on pushing the envelope till they are faced with irreparable damage? Hope he enjoyed his break from chew!

caved again?

Made it to day 3! Taking it odaat. Still riding out the suck. Been avoiding booze which is helping. If you're thinking about quitting and reading this, you can do it! Nicotine is a life vampire, that twisted bitch. I quit with my fellow sluts and my brothers in arms today. Thank you for all the inspiration.

Glad to see you still fighting. Protect your mind today! day 3 was the hardest of the withdrawal for me. You are almost free of the physical addiction to nicotine! Be proud you have made it to this point and keep pushing. It is possible! And you can do it!

we dont hope here... hope leaves the option to fail...we say we will here. Keep it up give us your word everyday. keep fighting min by min hour by hour.

Hope is not dope boys and girls.

Hope is what you have when you sit on Santas lap and tell him what you want for Christmas.

I like that you're back up and fighting , Erik. But simply replace hope with confidence or BALLS OF MOTHER FUCKING STEEL.

Hey brothers, made it through my first day. Looking down the barrel of day 2. Still heavy in the suck, but got some hope. I am going to kick the shit out of this addiction!

Atta boy!!!

Keep busy, keep moving.

The nic biatch loves a sitting target.

You got this shit, brah!!!!

I'm posted up and quit all day. Join me.

Hey brother,, glad your sticking around and giving this quit the attention it deserves. I wanted to hit your intro now that I have a little more time. You have to realize that you are worth all that you are about to face. Quitting is going to be one, if not the most difficult things you have faced. You are worth the insomnia. You are worth the withdraws. Ask yourself brother,, How much am I prepared to go through for this quit? If you haven't, read everything you can on nicotine (your enemy). Knowing your enemy is half the battle.

I never was able to quit before ktc because I didn't have the knowledge and the know how to quit. I failed because I was not mentally ready and able to quit. This sight will give you all that you need. You will have all the tools necessary for the quit.

The one thing we can't do for you is go through all the withdrawals and mental anguish you will face while quitting. You have to do all the work.

I can tell you that all the work is worth it and after time you will kick yourself dead in the but for dipping for umpteen years. Make this quit the most important thing in your life and all the real important things in your life will benefit. I quit with you today my friend.

Something got lost in translation about time but it really doesn't matter.  I caved.  I fucking suck at quitting that's why I'm here.  I know people are pissed and I respect that.  I deserve being called out.  You guys inspire me.

What happened: met a buddy for lunch and beers.  Afterwards I walked to 7-11 and bought 2 tins.  What people have said in here is right on.  I just pissed on my word, this place, all of you.

Why it happened: It happened because I chose to buy chew.  I had a choice.  I could have checked in here from my phone, but I didn't.  I could have reached out to someone.

What I am going to do differently: I am going to reach out to someone.  Bill was cool enough to PM me his number.  I'll use it.

Maybe you do have a tiny set of balls?

Stay away from beers for awhile, they are a proved quit killer, and if you feel like your gonna cave fucking come here.

Also your attitude fucking BLOWS. You sound so defeated, before you even begin.

Man the fuck up bro.

We can HELP you, but we can't fucking follow you around 24/7 making sure you don't buy a tin...or two.

It literally could be something that saves your life. Seriously, you could fucking be sitting in a hospital bed with half a god damn face and DIE.

Quit being a fucking PUSSY and MAN THE FUCK UP!!!!!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks, man I'll stay away from the beers for a bit.

So here's where I'm at right now. Can't fucking concentrate to save my life. I'm having a hard time typing this message. On my 3rd cup of coffee cuz I couldn't sleep for shit last night. I feel like punching someone in the face and/or taking a bat to a windshield.

But, I aint shoving that crap in my grill. So I got that going for me.

Take a good look in the mirror brother. You got to reeeaaaallly want it. You are worth the craves, you are worth the insomnia, you are worth not having a drink or two. This quit has to be the most important thing in your life or you won't make it!! Excuse time is over,,, lets do this. I quit with you,, don't let me down again. You let me down,,, you let yourself down.

I'd like to know a little more too Erik. How'd you start, why do you want to quit, what are your other triggers (you gotta start staying away from them or at least managing them)

You can do this. Quit on your terms, don't wait until it's too late. I quit with you today.

I started smoking when I was 14. Got turned onto chew when I was 18. I worked in a liquor store and had to step out to smoke. Inevitably as soon as I lit up, someone would walk in and I'd have to snub my smoke. A couple of guys bought chew all the time. I asked one of them one day if I could try one. It was Kodiak and it was instant love. No more stepping outside to smoke, I could nic up all day long behind the register.

Quit smoking when I was 30 but kept dipping. Been dipping a can a day of Kodiak for 20+ years. I want to quit because I am sick of putting crap into my mouth that is poisonous. I am tired of being a slave to nicotine. I am tired of hiding and lying. I'm tired of kids me asking me if I'm chewing because they can smell that crap on my breath when I kiss them goodnight. I'm tired of looking them in the eye and lying.

My triggers are just about everything around me. If I wasn't eating or sleeping, I was chewing. Beers seem to bring out some really intense cravings so I'm going to steer clear of them for a while. I'll let you know when others come up.

Went and bought $17 worth of candy and snacks at the 7-11. I did not buy any chew. I am now mowing down some mentos and beef jerky. Not a bad combo.

I feel insane, not the cool, kinda zany insane, more the scary, homicidal, shouldn't operate heavy machinery insane.

I smell a little bit of quit in here. I also shit my pants, but I definitely smell quit as well.

You WILL do this

I pass the following on because it helps me daily:

Triggers? LIFE is a trigger. (wrap yer head around that for awhile)

ODAAT (it works for thousands)

NAFAR (enuff is enuff, time to grow the fuck up)

1 problem + nicotine = 2 problems

See nictotine for the poison that it is.

To hell with caving. I wanna live.

Sounds like you are starting to get it. This is supposed to suck- embrace it and remember it so you dont travel back down the path. The insanity will pass- I found that writing in my thread helped me stay on track- I also spend a lot of time reading what others have gone through-

Lay off the coffee too. All that caffeine will fuck with you when you first quit.

Drink water by the gallons, fruit juices, chew gum, sun flower seeds, etc ....

You got this.

What you're going through is normal. Keep moving. Get small. Minute by minute if u have to.

Sprout some balls.
