"The poison sucks. I hate it. I hated it this morning, I hated it at noon, I hated it at supper and I hate it tonight. I enjoy hating it so much I'm going to wake up tomorrow and start over hating it. I quit with anyone that wants to hate it with me." - Srans

I don't own a gun and i've never been to Alaska but if I ever end up there I will kill one of those mother fuckers. Gun or no gun. Ill rain blows upon his face and drop kick him in the dick if he stands up." - Diesel2112

Day 200 - 1/30/14
Today I hit the 2nd floor. However, today is just another day. I drank the kool aide, share the kool aide and chime in when I feel it is necessary. Do I always have sage advice no, do I filter my language-fuck no, get used to it or move along.

However, you decide to quit, just commit to it and stick to your guns. I believe in the methods established by those who blazed the quit trail before me. If you don't then at least believe in your quit.

I don't always agree with everything that is said or done here. However, I also believe that those who give advice care. Being former Military I did not always agree with the orders I was given, but I listened to superiors or those who knew better than me. In that life mistakes caused loss of life, well guess what, that happens when quitting a deadly addiction too.

I never pictured that I would be sitting here today at day 200, that is not because I didn't want this day to happen but because I did want it to happen. The vets told be shit like "ODAT", "NAFAR", "1+1=2", "focus on today"...I took that advice, bought in although then it was a guide I didn't fully understand. Yet, today I sit at 200, say yeah it does get better, and numbers don't matter. That is when I feel that I am starting to "get it". I look for that in people too, get it or don't that is all your choice.

>P<

Hey Brother! Congratulations on making it to the second floor. You my friend are a bad ass quitter. For as long as I've known you, you have never complained once, never whined once and never, that I've seen put another quitter down. I've been quit 100 days more than you and I've been looking up to you since you've come here and posted a day one.

Proud of you Brother! Congrats and enjoy your day

Pinched you jumped in and started drinking the Kool-aide day 1, and it is no surprise to me to see you at 2nd floor. You are one bad ass quit machine, and I will quit with you every day of the week; twice on Sundays. Well done!
I could quit all by myself if I was stranded on an island without any nicotine...

It was a pleasure to meet both Brett and Corey last night, these guys completely get quitting. Funny how many addict behaviors and experiences we all shared without knowing it. Ended up staying out way past my bedtime, given the weather the mrs. wasn't happy. But it was sooo worth it.
Congrats again to you both on you milestones yesterday. Enjoy and be proud of them, you earned them.

What a great time- Thanks Pinched for reaching out when you came to town again! I can't stress enough how great it is to meet fellow quitters in person, and have that face-to-face accountability and connection going forward. It was a double blessing that these are two upright and on-the-ball men who also enjoy having some laughs. Can't be beat!
Took my freedom back October 23, 2013.

Here's an article that taught me a lot and made me hate the addiction: Nicotine Addiction 101-- newer quitters check it out-- and vets do it too, to breathe new life into your quit!

24 Quitters I have met: Ihatecope, >Pinched<, T-Cell, grizzlyhasclaws, Canvasback, BaseballPlayer, Cbird65, ERDVM, BradleyGuy, Ted, Zeno, AppleJack, Bronc, Knockout, MookieBlaylock, Rdad, 2mch2lv4, MN_Ben, Natro, Lippizaner, Amquash, ChristopherJ, GDubya, Mogul. Each one was a real honor and continues to fortify my resolve to stay QUIT!
