Great decision Mtav, I'd venture to say that the majority of quitters on here started there quit on a whim. The great thing about this site is you don't have to worry about quitting for the rest of your life, just one day at a time for and with the guys that are battling the same things you are. Everyday gets you farther away from day 1!

Quitting on a whim actually helps to avoid that mental separation process. You just kick it to the curb and focus on the quit, and that is it. You've made the first step. You are here. Now post roll everyday, be accountable for your quit and support others in their quit. The more supportive you are to others, the stronger your web will be and the more accountable you become. You can do this!

Mtav,
I did what you just did 142 days ago--Freedom is awesome!

Post roll first! do it now!

Do this every day and sit back and watch the transformation occur. Stick close to this site and the support it offers.

I am on day 17, and yes it can, will, and must be done!! I quit on a whim, really didn't think about it much. I got in the car one morning for my usual commute to work and about half way to work I just said "What the F@#%! am I doing?" That was the last one for me. I hadn't even been to this site yet. I realized after the first 8 hours that I was going to need some help. These brothers here will help.
Right now, you are on Day one. Post roll in the December group. Say to me, and all the brothers (and sisters) here that TODAY I am quit. Then live your promise, just for today. When you wake up tomorrow, do the same thing. But do not worry about tomorrow until you wake up.

I just had my last dip, enough is enough. A bit about me, male 32 started dipping when I was 15. Tried to quit once with the nicotine gum. No support group. I lasted 48 hours I think.

Been browsing the site for an hour and really like what I see here. I think this support will be great. With only one half-ass attempt at quitting I have to admit I am scared. I want to quit, it has gone on too long. Part of me wonders if I have the strength for the next few weeks. I think I need to just learn to take it day by day, hour by hour if I have too. Deep down I know cold turkey is the way to go. I don't have much of a plan in place and decided to just quit tonight, that has me worried. Can someone just quit on a whim like this?

I need to figure out the roll call part still. I am on night schedule so I will not be posting my first roll call until later today after I wake up.
