What is wrong with you all? I didn't come in here attacking you. Never claimed to not be an addict. Nor did I claim that this would be an easy road. All I've said is that it suddenly became easy. I realize that it's only been a day, but if I can make that, then I don't foresee having issues.
I get that most people need to just drop it, but that wasn't the way for me. However, the results are the same. Here I am...Nicotine free.
Please, drop the hostilities. I'd love to post roll and be a part of this, but not if I have to be an ass about it.
There's a mindset to quitting that's detrimental... thinking you got it handled. Thinking that because one day was easy, you don't forsee having issues. I'm not trying to be an ass... I'm trying to help you buckle in with the right focus. Your addiction handled you for years... one good day and you think you have it under control? Stop and listen to what we're saying. It's not an attack... it's education and experience.

Join your quit group... get into the groove of KTC. You'll soon understand where we're coming from. You need to be here... we want you to be here.
No ones trying to run you off. I'm gonna guess you will eventually run yourself off because of all of these harsh words. Do me a favor if you leave and cave, come back long enough to say: sorry you guy's were right. Because what we do here may not make sense to you but I will say there's engineers, doctors, rocket scientist here, might want to stick around a little while and find out why this works, either way good luck, sounds like you're definitely going to need it. Attitude is almost everything in quitting!
No luck from me. I didn't become a quitter because I am lucky, I became a quitter because I post roll daily and promise other addicts that I am nicotine free for a day. And it won't be luck tomorrow if I make the wise decision to sign roll, it will be the fact I haven't put dog shit in my mouth for over 2 years because of this method.

Just remember, you came here seeking advice, and when it isn't what you want to hear, you take your ball and go home. Not my problem - I have seen someone like you easily 50 times in the last 2 years.

You sign roll, you get support of thousands of quitters. You don't sign roll, you're on your own, no worries for me, I'll still be quit as fuck.
What are you afraid of Texas? I know you feel like you are losing a freind but youre not. That bitch doesnt do anything except enslave you and fuck up your mind. I wish you could just be in any of these longtime quitters shoes for just one minute and you would see how awesome being free from that shit is. Cmon man. You can do this!!!!!

You have arrived at the wrong place if you are looking for sympathy. Accountability is what you receive here. Throw the crap away. Whatever you have. Post roll. Once you start posting roll you will see a significant change for the good. I will not be your friend on here. I will however be a brother. It will be up to you to decide which you had rather have.

I know Pab, but at the end of the day you and the rest of us can only help so much. Seen it a hundred times, and will continue to see it. One can only quit when truly ready. I don't get wound up over this anymore, just move to the next potential quitter.

This whole thread is a textbook example of how to lose:

1. Don't quit... but slooooowly cut back.
2. Vigorously fight any advice or help offered, get offended and butthurt.
3. Don't post roll.
4. Proclaim on day one that this fight has been a snap so far.

Here's how to win:

1. Brotherhood (reaching out for help, accepting help, offering help, building relationships) +
2. Accountability (post roll each day as soon as your eyeballs open) =
3. Success

The plan here works. No other plan that I know of works. We all have a choice... Texas has lined out a very clear path to solitary failure. KTC has laid out a plan of winning together. Don't be like Tex.

Haven't touched tobacco since that day, and I have zero desire to.
Sometimes ppl just need encouragement, and all but one of you failed at that. I won't be posting roll, yet I will make it.

Texas, what you can't see right now is that the guys here and simply fighting through the addict b.s. and getting right to the heart of the matter. You don't see it yet because you're still in the white-knuckle drag out fog part of your quit. Not one of the guys that has posted on here has derided you for no reason. In fact, here's the stats. The guys you feel are crushing you have a total of 5,891 days quit between them and an AVERAGE of 982 days quit. Do you really think that all of them are just in here to give you a keyboard cow boy ride? 'finger point'

Each one of us has been where you are right now. We've each stared down the decision to quit and peed ourselves a little. The difference is the guys that didn't back down, didn't flinch are still here. They didn't get there by only using when they REALLY had to. They quit. They quit and never looked back. You will never regret this process once you pass through the turbulent waters of the first few weeks/months of your quit. You will be a better man and you'll be damn proud that every single day, you win the battle.

If you don't like the way guys are saying things, so be it, but don't lose the message for the delivery. You aren't the first addict to walk through here and you won't be the last. By my estimation, nobody ever succeeded here until they admitted they were an addict. As with any other kind of addict, we can NOT use in moderation. None. You can do this Texas, don't let your nic addict brain get in the way.

Haven't touched tobacco since that day, and I have zero desire to.
Sometimes ppl just need encouragement, and all but one of you failed at that. I won't be posting roll, yet I will make it.
For what it's worth, it's possible to quit without KTC or posting roll, but do you really want that? I've been quit for only 9 days, but I will politely question:

Why you would want to be here if you aren't going to assimilate and post roll? What's the value of this site to you if you aren't posting roll? Do you have a good reason for not posting roll? What makes not posting roll a better way of quitting than posting roll?

I want to quit chewing at all costs. I'm all ears to other ways of quitting if you can explain to me why they are better and get me to agree. For now, I'm going to offer this unsolicited opinion, so bear with me.

My opinion of KTC is that a lot of people have quit using the method it prescribes, that people like me are depending on others to post roll every day so that I know they will be there by my side fighting this awful addiction, making the same pledge, being dependable and people we can count on when times are the worst. This is for our lives here, both yours and mine and everyone else's here. We are fighting for our lives with people that have screen names. I didn't go to elementary school with them. I need them to prove to me they are dependable so I can use them as support.

I would really like to depend on you as a quit brother, but since I don't know you, how am I to know you'll be someone I can count on when the going gets tough for me unless I see you are proving to me that you are dependable by posting roll early and every day? Maybe you don't really give a crap about whether I can count on you, I don't know. I hope you care.

I quit with you today and here's to hoping that you'll drink the kool-aid because I'd love to have you as a quit brother. I will say, if you're not going to post roll everyday, I will pull for you and be on your side, but I need dependable people in my corner right now and I think a lot of other people need that same commitment every day from their support system to stay quit.

Dude. Posting roll is the promise that makes this work. Do not listen to the voice of the nic bitch as she struggles to maintain control of your brain.
We support one another hear. The fee for that support is a simple roll post. Look around there are guys with years quit who stay because this place helps them keep their quit strong.
Proud to quit with you today. Post roll with enthusiasm and hate nic.

Why are you coming back then?

Our attitude and methodology won't change... I think you're a smart enough guy to have figured that out. If you're so hell bent on doing it alone...

Why are you coming back?

You don't get to whine, bitch, rage, curse, call out, judge, or anything until you POST ROLL!

Then, as long as you do it religiously... you can do whatever the hell you want.

But... until you pay the price of our admission...

GTFO

I came back to simply thank the person who actually helped me. Then, pride wouldn't let me leave without telling you fuckers that I'm still quit.
With that, I'm out.
