Keep swing'n Matttt. You've given me a reason to smile every day for the past year, faithfully posting, never missing, like the sun coming up every morning. See you tomorrow for today+1.

One freaking year my quit brother... so badass.

Let's keep it going and make another trip around the sun together.
Be humble... grow everyday.

I fear I will always be chasing the vortex like a drug. None will be as special as my first hit.

My original intro thread can be found here:

Here's my first post at KTC, made January 5, 2018:

Hello all. 42 years old, have dipped for the better part of 28 years. For the last 20 years, it's been a can a day. Beautiful wife and two kids that have put up with me and my awful habit.

On January 2nd at 6 am, I "enjoyed" my last dip. I am now 76 hours nicotine free. I'm counting hours for now, and will soon switch to days. Excited for that moment.

I don't want jinx myself, but the last 3 days have been ok. A little moody, a little foggy, and simply can't sleep. But I can absolutely deal with these symptoms.

That's my story. Haven't figured out how to join a group, but will work on that. Good luck to everyone else on their quit.




I didn't know what the fuck was going on back then.  Just learning my way around the forums, figuring out my quit group, and learning to post roll.  Most importantly, I was 3 days nic free and just trying to make it to the next hour.  Back then, and for the first few weeks, I counted in hours.

Good news, friends..... day 366.  Just crossed the one year mark.  It can be done, and this website and group of quitters can help if you let them.  Stay focused and just make it to the next hour.
