Abuse of the introduction thread.  You are a bad, bad boy DDD.  You sir, have committed an affront upon this website not yet seen!

'bang head' I think quitting was easier alone come to think of it

I doubt it.

So do I. Just stumbled on this from November '10. Read it DDD.

*******************************
Ok I have to say and it may not be my place since I am only day 5 quitter, but I have been sitting here reading all this shit, and here is the low down from my point of view.

I am on day 5 of my quit and I can tell you that if I offered the support and time that everybody on this board gave somebody when they are going threw the shit bad and reach the point of caving and that person takes and asks for help, and everybody drops what there doing to help get them threw it, and that person eventually caved, I would be pissed, I would give them hell, I would expect to have answers to the question of what happend, what are you going to do to make sure it doesn't happen again, and in the end when they have taken there lumps I would still support them though there quit journey again.

Now that being said I can tell you why I said that, because I almost learned it the hard way on day 3 of my quit, Sunday I was so close to caving that I am ashamed to say that went out wasted money and bought a can, but I can proudly say thanks to this board, these people and espcially to D45MURF, RWM, and SHOW I can proudly say that can was never opened till I dumped it smile.gif. I know that if I was to cave I would expect these people to give me hell for it, they invested time on Sunday to save from hell again.

I am not the kind of person that is to ask for help, but on Sunday I found out where the true help is, I txted friends and faimly told them I was in it bad and needed help no responce from any of them. I told this board and txted those 3 guys on the way to the store to buy my I give up can and they responded, (and to be honest I was surprised by it that perfect stangers who dont know me gave there digits and responded when I asked for help saying I can't make it on my own, I wasn't expecting a responce at all, thanks your all my heros) we txted the board posted and got me threw it. I have found out that the only ones that can and will offer you any meaniful support is right here the people that are addicts right there with you.

I owe my life my jaw and my face to these people and if, you want or need my support and if you want somebody that will be there when your going threw the shit bad, PM me and I will give you my digits, but I will tell you this that if you cave and I have given you my support that you will get hell and have to prove yourself to me all over again, but after all that I will still be there to hold you up when you cant stand on your own though it all.

well I have rambled on about this and how important you all and this site is to me and how this has turned out to be my best support network I have ever had. Hopefully this all makes some sort of sence, because I am in my fog in a bad way and in my head it sound like it did. Thanks everybody for the help

1. There's about a billion Catholics who would disagree with you on that one, Michael. ;)

Just because there are a billion people believing something, doesn't make it right.
There are a multitude of Catholics who believe molesting young boys is perfectly ok...are they right?

I would still not jump off the Grand Canyon if there were a billion people doing it before me. It would soften the landing, but still be a bitch of a bad time.

I am saved by God's grace and I am quit through His strength, courage, and power.

Technically, I think a billion people would pretty much fill the grand canyon if they jumped in before you, so you'd probably be ok to just walk across. Just saying.
“Upon the plains of hesitation bleach the bones of countless millions, who when on the dawn of victory paused to rest, and there resting died.”
Your quit must be defended against complacency and a false sense of control over your addiction. There is no such thing as "just one." Stay quit.

Whoa...according to this guy, it'd take 44 trillion people to fill it up!
