Totally agree with Canless2014. Dude he's not even in your group and he was looking out for you. I would get on your spread sheet and find a brother above you and under you. Exchange numbers and text each other if not on roll by say 9am. That's how we pay it forward... So find someone your responsible for. You got a great quit going. Respect totally the 3 weeks. I quit with you today and ODAAT. |

Not a bad idea from Rawls, I had never heard that before. As far as checking in, I do it for selfish reasons haha. For me, engaging with new quitters is the best way to protect my own quit. Sometimes I think about the money, time & health I gave away to nicotine / tobacco and it can get depressing. Years we can't get back. So if I can ever help a brother or sister follow through on his or her quit, I feel like it's sort of sticking it to big tobacco again and again. Hopefully we'll get to a point where we have more people quitting tobacco than those starting it ... and it's the home stretch from there. That's my philosophy anyhow.. quit on ! |

"Post roll. Post more if you want to. That's the beauty of the place: We ask you post roll. We ask you to be honest. That's all. No more. No less. Be there for your brothers and ask for help when you need it." - Wastepanel 10/6/14 "What would you do to save your own life? If you were fighting cancer today would you suffer through Chemo, surgeries, try new a therapy? change your diet, go to church? What intolerable hell would you endure to simply live. When you have thought long and hard about that, think on this. Why not apply that attitude to your quit. Suffer through the temporary discomfort of withdrawal to achieve your freedom from a slow painful demise via nicotine. Your in the ring already- fight like you mean it." - Skoal Monster 10/8/14 "Others can take away 99% of the shit in your life - the bank can take your house, truck, retirement, bitch ass ex-wife can take away your kids, cancer can take your loved ones but NO ONE can ever take your quit but YOU - rkymtnman" How Long Will I Be Quit?

I'm feeling good with the quit. Wife and kids didn't know I was dipping which makes me feel like crap that 1) I was doing it 2) I was hiding it and 3) putting my life, health, and relationship in jeopardy for that crap. Wish I would have stayed strong 4 years ago and resisted the offer. I surely never thought caving in and saying yes would lead to 4 years of poisoning myself. When you quit did you experience soreness in your throat? |

Ahh thanks. Wow 100 days to heal....guess that makes sense given the number of days spent damaging the mouth and throat. Your words and reading other people's intros help big time with controlling the anxiety over possible health issues... Google searches surely don't help anxiety but def help with the quit. Thanks again for the input! |

Wooly Congrats on the quit, you're doing g great! I hear you on the anxiety bud. I had it so bad that for the first time in my life I was having panic attacks after looking at Google and/or cancer pics on ktc. I had convinced myself I had it. Every little sore in my mouth or sore/tight throat literally had me in tears. It was awful! Good news is it gets much better!! Folks on here suggested that I go to the dentist if I was that concerned. I was terrified but after quitting it was the best decision I've made. Totally puts.the mind at ease. Keep up the good work and glad to quit with ya!!!!! |

Thank you for your post, definitely helps when you know others have had the same experience. Google has done the same to me... Looked at tons of pics and read lots of things that had me worried. |

34 days no Kodiak is a blessing indeed but anxiety and fear can be debilitating. How normal is it to fell tightness in the neck, typically left side? Is this part of detoxing the body or possibly not related. It's not like a sore throat/esophagus, seems to be outside either node or muscle related. Of course everything on Google has to mention cancer which is obviously cause for concern. Weird thing about it up until I quit I never noticed it. Not an option for me but I'm Not going to lie, I have wondered if I just put a dip in maybe it will go away I do have an annual exam scheduled for next Tuesday. Im still trying to figure out this site. Is roll call just for posting roll or isit for comments as well? |
