Hando, congratulations on posting! It is hard at first to figure it out but everyone on this site now has your back. You have thousands of supporters now. You are like the Taylor Swift of quit (haha.).

Seriously, doesn't it feel different? You just posted your word to thousands of us in your shoes. Today is in the books, so you don't have to worry about today any more. Tomorrow repeat. Really honored to be on this team with you. You've got a bad ass group backing you up.

We are all a text away. You are making the best decisions of your life.

All nic is out of the picture. Thanks for the dental tip!
There are two kingdoms and they are at war with one another; the kingdom of darkness and the kingdom of light. Unfortunately, we are born into the kingdom of darkness and Satan is the king. Satan is very crafty. He says, "You don't have to serve me, just serve yourself." But in the end, we receive darkness, death, and destruction. On the other hand, there's the kingdom of light and the King is Jesus. He came to earth and died on a cross, was buried, and rose from the dead to forgive us of our sins. If we will turn from our selfish ways, receive His forgiveness, and surrender our lives to Him as our King, He gives us light, life, and love. We live in this little bubble called life (70-80 years) and when it pops, whichever king we served is where we will spend all eternity.

Wow, over 50% of those who have posted on your page are on my phone. I know these guys by name, and exchange texts regularly with them every week. Heck, I've even met one of them in person and I plan on meeting more. It all starts with posting roll and you did that, so kudos to you brother. Never did I think that quitting nicotine would bring me a legion of friends dedicated to making sure I save my own life every day. I don't know about you, but I don't have any other friends like that in my life where that is their sole mission. Keep doing what you're doing...and above all post roll. Don't let your new friends down.

This. I'm not sure I've got a bunch of wisdom to add you've got all the badasses out backing you here. If you need another number PM me. Your story is like a lot of us. Replace army with oilfield & mine isnt so far off. It might not feel so different yet from the other times of quitting but it will. This'll be a real quit. Not a pause, break, or slowdown. All you have to do is post roll & keep your promise. Sounds easy. May not always be. But for the guys here posting in your intro that are a hundred or hundreds of days in, they d all made it work. You got this too.

Keep gettin through it, day by day, hour by hour, crave by crave. Learn all you can about nicotine addiction and how others' quits go- read, read, read! It'll carry you through to know what you might face and that others have beat everything the addiction throws your way. Keep going, you're building momentum!
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!

Keep taking those big breaths brother. You can do this.
You also have a great group forming to help in those times when it seems there is no oxygen to breath in.
We have all done it.... So can you. ODAAT.
PM if you ever need any help.
Just an old sinner, wanting to show another, where he can get a free meal. The Cross
And a 38 year addict, wanting to show another, where he can get a free Quit. KTC
Not what I should be..or could be....but better than what I used to be.

Rawls,

I see that you and I are both the same kind of 'gambler'. If you could pray for me, I would greatly appreciate it brother. Specifically for a softened heart toward my wife and kids. Two days in a row and we've had some pretty bad arguments - stupid stuff, but it just triggers something in me. I'm ok for a while as we argue, but then she just keeps picking and picking and I can't help it but fire back...

Here's the hardest part. Since the start of the quit, my strength/faith in Christ has grown cynical, as if to say that He can't do anything to help me. In fact, I don't even want to pray about it. The quit is making me irrational/unreasonable. This used to happen some mornings at home on weekends when I couldn't get a fix. Now that i'm 4 days in, i'm really unreasonable.

i'm making it...
