That's been my mantra for the past 18 years. First, it was with the smoking thing and now dip has become my killer of choice. To top it all off, the tobacco companies come out with "snus" and really turn my world upside down. I have lied to my wife, my family and most of all to myself. I am here because I want to be here. I am here because there is a longing inside of me that is ready to quit this horrible addiction! After 18 years of being a slave, it is time to be free. But I am scared and addicted. I know it will be the hardest thing I have ever faced in my life and that is what scares me the most. So tomorrow morning when I come back on this site, roll call will be my first objective. No more, its done and each day will be a new day to enjoy knowing that I don't have to be chained to something that has held such a grip on my life for so long.

If you want to see a success story, then jump on board and help a brother out. I am going to need all the help this site can give me. Now its time to let my wife know that the lies about my nicotine addiction stop now. No more hiding in the dark. Its time to live in the light until the day I die................

Read from the very first post.

I succeeded today because I gave my word and kept it. I have been succeeding for one thousand three hundred and thirty eight days in a row. I will do the same tomorrow.

Nicotine doesn't give two shits about your strategery, and that's just a fact. Only strategy that works is promise not to use nicotine first thing every morning, keep that promise all day, rinse, repeat. - teamgreen

Post roll, use this site to bitch and complain about your fogginess, whatever it takes to keep the NIC bitch out of your body. Take this one day at a time. Quit for today. I quit with you today.
Your mind is a lying, cheating, stealing whore. Your body is a saint. Now, who are YOU going to listen to?

Tenn Tex,

Just worry about one day at a time. Post Roll everyday and reach out to the fine support around here. Man up and work through the pain and discomfort. I am on day 157 and it was a tough road, but I made it just by focusing on one day, one hour and one minute at a time. Now life is good and I am free.

Sure it will be hard, but I promise you that it will be one of the most rewarding acomplishments in your life.

The FIRST KEY---ONE DAY--ONE PROMISE at a time. The SECOND KEY----Lean on your brothers here--we got your back. The THIRD KEY---No caving!!!!

Post roll today and let's get this show on the road!

PM me if you need anything!

So far, so good! Told my wife about my addiction. Stopped calling it a bad habit. Feeling very detached from reality right now. Just trying to push past having any nicotine in my body. Then the real test comes. I really like the taking it one day at a time. Helps to take small steps.

The day I admitted I was addicted to nicotine was the day I controlled nicotine instead of nicotine controlling me. It does not make quitting easy, it just means you call the shots. You have turned a corner friend.

You are so right. In the past when i quit, there was always this calm in the back of my mind. Because I knew that I could always cave in and go down to the store and be saved. This time is different, this time I am seeing it for what it is, an addiction. Just going to take this thing one day at a time. Only thing so far has been the mouth pain. That might have alot to do with all the seeds I am devouring.

Today will be the true test.....At work sitting in front of a computer for 10-12 hours. Boredom has always been my biggest enemy. I know I can do this, just have to be strong.
