Really your pretty good at being here and strong enough to make three months.... Unless your were using gum or patches the whole time. Everyone new, lurking or posting, the substance we are fighting is nicotine. When you finally quit nicotine gum or patches, there will be symptoms that a cold turkey found the minute they quit smoking. Patches help break the habit but everyone has to get over the nicotine hump sooner or later. At three months you should Be rolling easy

Tree is killing me. Puts everything so it falls off then wants topper put on.

Multiple anything is good. Jc I used patch in past. You will feel it when not using it. I would not go gum after patch. Just patch till your ready to stand on own would be my advise but don't follow a two month patch program if you can just rip it off at earlier point. I like cold turkey best. So sooner is better. Get that crap out of your blood and get busy living.

15 me too for biit

Master gardener ought to be huckleberry here...she knows this more recent than us. By why under a month, cause these are the target which need most support. Not all, just most... And by giving jc a line or two, you help yourself everyday. You up for the task of checking in on jc for a couple weeks? Actually not going with jc as nickname till we know you better. Tell us your quit method and maybe alittle about yourself if you could??? I will say me and sgt probably had a similar quit like you have going ...I didn't struggle, I commented on what I felt, and had some events which I felt I could release, but not once did I really break down or go off the deep end. Just grabbed NOPE and went with it. When your ready, your ready and I was ready.

new personality but will settle for fixing the old one with some duct tape over my mouth in public....

I usually just call Nancy, she takes care of all that stuff without a problem...she is a supervisor of the major call center most of this stuff goes through.

4 silly is tough bird though and she geta all the guy attention that way too....pimp been busy with Wendy and all...

She was doing the older members I think. Plus she got some health stuff I don't recommend calling them out. Just saying hi or asking how they are doing is quite different. Lurkers disappear to easy. Or fail to easy. If we want to be helpful then a little more than responding to a question is needed to get a better success rate. Hey joe you ok. It's day 2! Means someone here is thinking of him. Someone put time into thinking of them and cares. If someone cares then I must be important enough to say I still here. The problem this group faced has been since the beginning we have more experience than newbies. Always heavy towards the easier part of quit. We have some since day one. Or like to repeat day one but hardly have more than three on week one at anytime. So quit buddies don't form as quicklly. I don't like name sponsor or mentor. Buddy should be reserved for those close to same time frame. Friend or like doc holiday said "I'll be your huckleberry " We get a name and then it falls into place. Silly not making rules. Organized help. Doesn't mean you can't check into thread or call huckleberry on everyone. Just like to see ever newbie get a huckleberry

We need a list, or roll call, or something, everyone under a month gets a follow up daily and check ins. I usually don't recognize the names for 1 week celebrating..But then some go missing....so we need a daily newbie roll call, not just the daily pledge. I never, not once pledged...just not my thing...but maybe when a newbie signs in, the first person to recognize they are here, or someone posts to their thread...they call sponser, or big brother/sister or guide...I don't know what name, but they volunterr to help for first month or till newbie gets a quit buddy,,,,,older buddy maybe...name thing will work itself out. Anyways we should see that sponser post daily caling the newbie to post how they are...example ginger posts "bakon day 2, how it hanging?" bakon, my friend I care deeply about, its your day two, how do you feel? did you meet nancy yet? she is on week 1 and might be good for you to follow a little. any problems?" now we don't have to all talk girlie and lovey feelie like the pimp. some sgt talk works on a lot of people, but got to feel that out. and call another sponser to step up if your match aint making it. some people just aren't meant to direct some personalities. but just a friendly check in can get us all to come take a look and maybe via some pm these admin yahoos can work out a detail or too instead of posting cats everywhere... you girls seem to be more thoughtful at this stuff, but I hate seeing two weeks in and we cant find someone.... bat dog meatloaf buritto joe we can jump in toooo but the pimp will probably beat us a lot. mr feelings and a six hour daily head start on that island (I know the queen of Scotland is there, but she has trouble just counting before noon) now I tried to crack wise some on this idea, but serious on the premise
