Title: Back again
Post by: dabucs28 on June 13, 2021, 08:17:15 PM
Hey all,

I am returning after a long time away. I was quit and active here in 2013 and 2014, then I fell back to the can.

My goal is to quit again and my start date is Fathers Day. Because I need to quit, doing it for myself but for my 2 boys as well.

When I quit last time I was living in New Jersey. The cost of dip there made it a little easier. Since then I have lived in Orlando, Fl, New Orleans, LA and now Birmingham, AL. All my moves have been for the better in my profession which came more money. Cheaper dip and more money equaled doing 2 to 2.5 cans a day. Spending $23 a roll at least twice a week is very costly not to mention poor health. I am ready and preparing mentally. My wife and kids don’t know and I want to see how long it take for them to notice that I don’t consistently need a bottle or spit cup by my side ALL THE TIME. I am currently at Disney for my kids senior trip for HS and damn it’s an inconvenience to hide the fact that I am dipping, at the parks in line and making sure I spit it out at the last chance before getting on the coasters. Damn nearly ran out too but a quick run to the gas station so I don’t have anxiety.

Well wish me luck. I will check back daily.

There is so much wrong with this all I frankly don't even know where to begin.

You didn't quit; you merely stopped.

Your goal should be to keep nicotine out of your pie hole, quit lying to yourself and start NOW. Selecting a date to quit in the future is addict speak all the way. It's freaking easy to quit tomorrow, right? Tomorrow comes and you tell yourself you will get around to the next day. This is exactly why it's 2021 and you (hopefully) will be posting a Day 1 vs 6-7 years. Also, our children can be great motivating factors but you MUST quit for yourself first and foremost.

Probably not like the anxiety that will happen if you have to tell your wife you have oral cancer or when they have to cut have your face off but keeping buying those cans and see I guess.

We never wish anyone here luck. Because luck has no place when it comes to being QUIT. We give our words and honor our promises each and every day. There is no luck in the equation. The question becomes, do you have what it takes to be a part of the brotherhood here and accept the accountability that comes with it??

Here is the link to your freedom - September 2021 (https://ktcforum.org/index.php?topic=17074.495#lastPost)

I suggest you post up tonight @dabucs28 (https://ktcforum.org/index.php?action=profile;u=3731). You never know what that next dip will be the one that tips the scale......

You were in the July 2011 quit class and your last post was for your day 5 on April 21, 2011.  I think it's awesome that got 2 years of freedom from your short time here, especially since you didn't post roll at all during that time.  It sucks that you left this site and caved.  Why did you cave?

This site has always been for folks who want to quit every day.

Everything changes, not sure if you have changed for the better.
You don't like it here?
It was better before when you caved?
You think we are the problem?
Fuck off and let us know when you want to quit, not try to quit.
Everyone you have heard from will likely still be here; and still be quit!

@dabucs28 (https://ktcforum.org/index.php?action=profile;u=3731) is going to quit on Father's day!  That is NEXT Sunday.  This site worked so well for him before that he is going to roll the dice and dip another week.  I'm not sure who the asshole is...

Funny thing is that I hope to see him on roll but most likely he won't be there.  Nobody who plans to QUIT in the future never does so until something scares them into it.

I wouldn’t waste my time here. Here doesn’t really want to quit.
