Don't confuse your path with your destination. Just because it's stormy now doesn't mean that you aren't headed for sunshine. Quit for YOU!! EDD!! | |

Not sure why day 8 was harder than day 1 or 2 but it was. It was a long ass day but I'm still standing. If it wasn't for this site and the people on it, I would have caved by now...I know it. |

Sounds familiar to me. If you read some of the intros of other quitters on the site, you will eventually find pieces of your own story all over. It's amazing how this danged addiction has so many tricks. Keep it up Gooch you're building a good quit! |

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! | |

Worst night of sleep I've had in years. Lots of vivid dreams about chewing and other crap as well. Got on this site in middle of the night and was reading articles posted about cancer and now I'm just kinda depressed. Thinking how that could already be me but it hasn't shown up yet. Shitty day so far. But I posted roll and promise not to cave today. |

Embrace the fact that your going to feel shitty until you don't. You can endure anything as long as you know it is temporary, this shit is temporary. I promise, keep grinding. The sleep, headaches, depression, fear, shame, regret etc are all normal your on the right track, just keep putting one foot in front of the other- you got this. sM |

"CLOSE THE DOOR. In my opinion, it’s the single most important step in your final quit. There is one moment, THE moment, when you finally let go and surrender to the quit. After that moment, no temptation will be great enough, no lie persuasive enough to make you commit suicide by using tobacco." | |

That is frustrating but remember to keep in mind that this quit is about you first. The poor bastard that caved refused to take ahold of their addition. You have a understanding of how your addiction affects you and you are doing what it takes to stay quit. Keep that in mind and keep being a badass. ODAAT |

So "Movember" is coming up and I've never participated with growing a stache in order to raise awareness of men's health issues. But this year I'm going to. Although I'm only doing it to raise awareness of the nasty effects of chewing tobacco. Any time someone asks why I'm growing that fur on my upper lip, I'm going to tell them why and why it was so fucken stupid of me to do for over 20 years. This is my pledge to the group. Anyone who wants to join me, I would love it! Hope all is well with my Jan group. Keep up the good fight! |
