Winter Green here, day 107!  I hate to steal the spotlight from our newest, well deserved HOF'ers in March, but I feel I should lay this out for anyone going through anything similar. 
100 days was the goal, we build up so much anticipation, reach 100 days then BAM. It has came and gone like a cheap whore in a soup kitchen.  Then we ask ourselves, "what now?"  My personal experience was like this, the build up to 100 was awesome and exciting, then 101, but I quickly got bored of my quit, whats that called, the "idontgiveafucks"?  Yeah that lasted from 102-106.  I realize that this is when I am most vulnerable.  My job is to make sure that if I start to drag my ass, then I need to re evaluate my quit, reach out and get my ass on KTC and talk about it. The funks will come and go, we know this. The question is, what are we going to do about it?  Always post roll EDD, keep your guard up, stay active, stay involved and stay dedicated.  I will not use nicotine today, in any form because I am quit, because Ive posted roll and I am a man of my word, because I care, because why the hell would I ever want to be a slave to a cancerous tranquilizer again? Fuck nicotine!

You nailed it...just a milepost, not a destination. Quit everyday ODAAT!
Quit everyday. I'm right there with you. I've been in a little funk also since hof.

Posts like this remind me that I'm not alone. None of us are.

Me and you are the same day. 107. Let's keep it that way.
Yep this is a great post. Never think that you don't need to post or you have to start weening yourself from the bottle. If you feel invincible in your quit, POST ROLL! If you feel vulnerable - POST ROLL. If you don't give a shit - POST ROLL.

The big mistake is not understanding that there isn't a cure to addiction. You can only treat it. Like a diabetic: They have to keep there blood sugar levels in line.

Posting roll regardless if you are up, down or don't care is the treatment to stay quit. Once you accept to post roll every damn day you wake, then recovery can begin.
Its as easy as not putting a dip in.

Holy crap dude, this is an amazing post. Complacency is not an option and if it becomes a notion, then like you said, "re-evaluate" your quit. Love that statement. It's almost like thinking of your quit as a business, the moment you feel the return on your investment is dwindling, you need to take charge and make it profitable.

Never let up. 110% EDD.

Thank you everyone,  100 was the goal wasnt it. It is like a mirage, some people see the checkered flag at 100, but when they get here they hopefully see clearer. It is just a milestone, one of many that I intend on reaching.  I was running, now Im on the train with a bunch of bad ass quitters like all of you.  I understand how to quit like fuck every day, every hour or every minute even. I promise everyone on this site, not only my Bad Ass March crew, but EVERYONE, that I will post roll EDD and I will quit like a fuckin beast ODAAT.  Thanks for everyones support,  and I look forward to seeing each and everyone of you on roll tomorrow
