I agree with bigduke, it wasn't the first few days for me, it was the 2-3 week mark. That was the real bitch. I was a real asshole and craved pretty hard during that time. Don't get over excited that things are going better than expected. Keep your wits about you. You never know when the bitch is gunna sneak up on you. And when she does, and she will, it won't be pretty. |

Like I said. The good days come and go. If you are having a good one enjoy it. You will find more balance as you get deeper into your quit. Eventually all the days will be good ones, but you have some bills to pay first. Good job using the tools of the site. Keep fighting..... it is worth it. |

Ditto for me. The first three days weren't so bad. I had a battle around 2 weeks in and another one around 60 days. You never know when it'll hit, but it will eventually. Be ready for it!! I've quit before for 8 months and then lost it. That was before I found this site and will not happen again!! It helps to keep busy. Get neck-deep in some other favorite activity (call that girlfriend over?) to keep your mind off the shit. My opinions on what will make it work: 1. Read all you can on this site: stories, HOFs...everything. 2. Post roll regularly so folks will know when you need help and pester the shit out of you if you're late. We'll be looking for you. 3. Get some numbers to call/text in the tough times. 4. Always be ready for that sneak attack. 5. Realize that YOU are in a battle, even when you're having easy times. 6. Decide that YOU are going to win that battle - we'll help each other. |

I'm a previous quitter (I shouldn't say that, i'm not worthy of the title). I had a relapse about a month ago. I couldn't believe it. My mind came up with a resolution that I would chew and it would be a one time thing, and like having a drink it would be fine. All of the hard work I put into quitting was gone. Out the fucking door. So here's to starting over. Its gonna be a rough few days, but i've done it before and I know its possible. The hundreds of testimonials are my inspiration. So here's a little information about myself. I'm a web developer located in Cincinnati, this region seems to be the dip capital of the world. My triggers include driving, and coding. I throw in a pouch or drool all over myself when I do either of these. Its sad, I know. Truth be told, i'm tired of being controlled by this drug and i'm tired from hiding it from people that find it disgusting. Most of you will most likely find me in the chat, hearing from you guys keeps my guard up and motivates me to keep moving forward in a dip-free life. |

Well.....sounds like you learned your lesson about the "one dip" thing! I did that many times before finding this site. We are all addicts to Nic. There is no such thing as "one last dip". one dip turns into one can turns into I'll quit next week. Just keep that in mind when you find the addict talking in your head again telling you its ok cuz you can handle one pinch!!! Proud to be quit with you today! |

What is different this time? Why did you cave? |
|
In the end I Surrender, I and I alone accept that I have and always will have a Nicotene ADDICTION. It is my choice to quit, but I can't do it alone. I get to go down this path one time, I want to do it right. I recognize that my word, my integrety to you is on the line and is only as good as my actions. Caving is not an option in this plan-Eafman 7/11 I am not cured. I will quit one day at a time. I will continue to do what works. Posting roll everyday. To do otherwise would be foolish on my part. You can do this-Ready 12/11 To overcome your addiction you must comprehend what it means to fail-Razd 3/12 Theres a lot of people that come here, especially vets, that WANT to be reminded that they are addicts.-Tarpon 6/12 Just as a building starts with architectural drawings. Your daily quit begins with a promise.-Scowick 2/13 Here and now, focused on today, minute by minute, whatever it takes, I promise to all my bros and myself not to become a negative stat and stay quit!-krok 1/15 I want everyone to be quit. Even the assholes.-Probe1957 1/18 Try walkin' your talk or get the fuck out of my way-A Perfect Circle (TalkTalk) | |

Honestly, I don't know why I caved. I was out doing some fishing and was offered some chew. I guess my mind convinced itself that if I did it one time, it would be alright. The symptoms were back, like I never even got rid of them. What is different this time, is I need to stick around these forums and take in some of the logic versus my own thought process. I am an addict, and the things running through my head aren't necessarily right. |

Thank you. Noticed your a marathon runner that dips. We are in the same boat on that one. At one point in my life I was doing triathlons and dipping while on the bike. Ultimate hypocracy. Also Kiawah is a beautiful island, we venture there every summer. I enjoyed your speech. |

I'm here with you too man. I relapsed too, and am starting all over again today. We both know how shitty the next week is going to be, but we just have to stick through it. "light at the end of the tunnel" kind of deal |
