Second day to post roll. The cigs are history. Nicotine is gone for good! I QUIT!

Way to go Doc! Now you're all in.

Shoot me a PM if you need anything. I quit w/ you!

Good job. Post roll with pledge not to use nicotine each morning and then just honor your word. If you do that and make some friends here you cannot fail.

I'm 25 days into the rest of my life without nicotine. I finally figured out my power in my quit. It is to hate the nic bitch. I never thought of her that way until I came to KTC but I thought she was my friend, constant companion, helper, seductress. I thought I enjoyed being with her and being controlled by her. She was an evil whore that just wanted to kill me, take my money, lower my self-esteem and make my family take a back seat.
Now that I realize I hate that bitch...she will never touch me again.
I will eat every sunflower seed on the planet if that is what it takes!
Nic free forever....I quit!

Doc, Derk is right. That is badass. I fueled my quit by hating the bitch. Still hate her, but have found myself lately laughing at her and how foolish she is. Not to take away from her masters degree in trickery, but when the light is switched on and you really see her for what she is, I just laugh. I think you have turned that light on. Quit on brother.

The last few days have been tuff. Not sure why but I'm about to go crazy switching from seeds to gum to mints to jerky to Smokey Mtn. Sores on my tongue and nothing seems to help calm me. Haven't even thought about chewing but would like to go a couple hours without having to put 6 different things in my mouth.

Great job. Keep doing what your doing. It took me about 3 to 4 weeks to begin getting over all the issues your having trouble with. I say again, BEGIN! Its part of it my friend. You add up the days you used you would probably need a calculator. You've only been quit a month.

It will get better quicker then you think. It just feels like time slows down for a while. When your having those shaky moments slow down. Take deep breaths. Remember that millions of people go through life and do it without the poison. We weren't meant to walk around led by a can.

Your building a new you. The new you is going to be one bad dude. He will handle this life, problems, stress and everything else you can throw at him without the poison. Trust me, your going to like the new you, all this is worth it.

One day at a time and you can have back a lot of what the poison has stolen. Never again for any reason and you can keep it.

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.

Thanks srans. You rock 'oh yeah'
I know everything you said is true and I am true to the quit, but it helps me rationalize everything to here you say it.
I have been lashing out at the kids last few days...little shits probably deserve it. But, as I am lashing, I here myself and think that I'm being a little over the top. Need to get a hold on that part of my life. Not their fault I used the nic bitch. (Is their fault they back talk though)
Anyway, srans, you said exactly what I needed to hear. How long were you a slave to the b?

Answer; 25 +. Way to long. Let me make a list of all the good things it did for me in those years. Here we go;





I'm sorry, i got nothing!
The emotional roller coaster is rough. I know we can't take time off being fathers and husbands but sometimes it's best to take a back seat when your able. Remember the wife and kids did not do this to you. Think about every situation and handle with care. You're wife and kids will like the new you, but while it's in the early phases take it easy. Realize your not able to handle everything like you were weeks ago. You'll be back and better than ever, but it will take time. Quit with you.

Thought I'd give a little update. Been quit 32 days and doing pretty well. Haven't even considered caving. I hate the nic bitch with a passion!
I think I'm doing pretty well considering I used for 36+ years but I don't want to get cocky or complacent. I know that the knowledge I have found on this site as well as the brotherhood has made my quit stronger.
I'm kinda concerned about my use of the crutches. I'm more gross now than I was when I used. I know that Smokey Mtn and seeds aren't as bad as nic in anyway but I am not gaining on the oral fixation thing.
I have found it hard to get involved at times in the site though. Don't really feel worthy to give anyone advice yet. I read a lot and sympathize with the newbies. Once in a while I feel compelled to throw my two cents in.
I find it amazing how much of a bond quitting this addiction can give us. For instance, srans has given me some good ol' "attaboy" advice and it made me feel that I really knew him. Then I saw that he was going through a hard time and my heart bled for him. This place is amazing!
Guess what I'm trying to say is "THANKS".

BTW the other day I was in the quick stop that I always purchased my nic at and was stocking up on seeds and Smokey mtn and discussing how my quit was going with the gal behind the counter when a stranger walked up and asked how long I'd been quit. He was quit 2 years. It was like an instant bond.
QLF!

Great job. 32 days means your winning. Your right where you should be my friend. I started questioning my use of crutches right about the same time you are. Chunked the fake around day 40 and i think i used it one more time in the 70's. YOUR in control my friend. Here's a thought; use the fake if you need to. Here's another thought; Don't use it if you don't need to.

As more time passes you will understand more and more. When you first quit you have to trust what others are telling you. As time passes you begin to see and feel the truths. The poison screwed us up my friend. Welcome back to the real world. You still have some hurdles, but your eyes are opening.

As the days go by you will be amazed at the world you uncover.

The only ones that understand this addiction are the ones with it. One day at a time and you can have back a lot of what the poison has stolen. Proud to be quit with you.
