Thanks everyone. I'm having a very tough time and didn't predict this would happen at day 30 or 33. I wish to God tobacco was good for you and dipping had health benes. I have to get my mind in the right place here, keep plugging at it, and hope that it will someday get better.
First off, take the HOPE out of it because it WILL get better.

Second, your pretty sly with two pretty big intros. Had to do some searching as I was almost positive you're original intro was something about you losing a "friend".

I found it and dude...you chewed for 22 years...that's 8,030 days.

You have been quit for 33 days. The ratio of good to bad is still very fucked up. You can't beat, or even get comfortably away from an EIGHT THOUSAND day routine, in 33 days.

I know you want to. I did as well, but it's just not a reasonable expectation.

"do you think there is a point a person crosses when using tobacco where it becomes next to impossible to remain quit?"

FUCK NO. That is bullshit talk right there and you need to get that shit the fuck out your head.

You're funking, HARD! I get it. We have all been there. Part of me wants to tear you a new asshole, but I don't think that will do much good today.

You're down and filled with doubt. Fuck, you're wishing dip was somehow GOOD for you. Your shit is jacked UP.

You just have to grind it out my friend. You fucked yourself up for over 8,000 days. You have a lot of unraveling to do. We all did. 33 days is not enough time.

In the grand scheme, this is just a tiny snapshot of suck in your life. Things WILL get better. They have done so for ALL of us. You are not special or cursed. They will for you too.

Hang tough bro. We are here for you.

I'm starting to think that quitting may be vertually impossible. I know this sounds weak and pathetic but do you think there is a point a person crosses when using tobacco where it becomes next to impossible to remain quit? I'm saying this because I don't know how much longer I can take this.....day 33 and it seems to be getting harder not better. The craves are becoming more pronounced, I'm irritable most of the time, and my overall productivity is lapsing. I don't want to be irritable, impatient, and short all the time to my wife and daughter. I know chewing causes cancer and could kill me and that's the main reason but shit man the stress and pain is getting worse.

I'm trying like hell to remain quit and not let myself, my family, and you all down. Trying like hell.
What the heck are you saying brother? Look at this site, look at all of the quitters that are on this site, and you do think it can be done? I think the better part is you dont want to do it?

You have done it once a day for 33 days, now you don't think you can do it anymore? You made a promise to me and a bunch of others that you would not have nic today, keep that promise.

Dont let her win, dont be another cave, who will come back here as a re-tread. Grab your nuts and suck it up and quit. Quit for you, for your family for everyone. Man it has not been easy, but I am so committed to this, I am not going to lose. You dont have permission to cave
Come on stc. You got this man... I told you I had this happen to me around day 30. Im on day 49 and feel so much better. The nic bitch is trying real hard this time because she knows she's going to lose you for good. Don't you give in stc. Man up and lets take this to the house.
That's right, forgot about that srans. I'll take your word for it man. I'm holding on.
Little story. I have a friend,, He quit with me same day and everything. I advised him I was using ktc and maybe he should. He said he would be fine. He's back to dipping and i'm not. I can see that he's wishing he would have stuck it out, I see it on his face everytime I talk to him. FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION MY FRIEND!!!! I don't know about you, but I wanted my life back and I know you do to,,, or you wouldn't be on day 33......
STC hey brother I know you are having some problems with this quit. I personally have made a few posts in your threads already,so why stop now. Right to your question then "do you think there is a point a person crosses when using tobacco where it becomes impossible to remain quit"? The obvious answer is No.You make a choice everyday to remain quit,the more days you can string together being quit the farther you should be from ever wanting to cave or use Nicotine again.This shit isn't easy,if it was there wouldn't be a site like KTC because everyone would stay quit.Nothing worth having or doing is ever easy.I'm not cured,hell I only have 60 days under my belt but I would put my 60 up against anyone's time that It is all a fucking mental game now.The physical part is done, it has been done.Stay strong brother,keep kicking that bitch right square in the face.QLF today.

Yeah, the craves are so bad lately. It's like out of nowhere the ex-Bitch (or was it the other way around?) is whispering evil cave thoughts into my head. It's probably stress. My wife had a biopsy and we had to wait all week to find out if she had cancer or not......thank God it was benign. That coped with work stress, family issues, etc. BUT I did NOT cave.

I was so fucking addicted for years like nothing you could imagine. If I was Native American, my nickname would be "One with bump in lip"!

Christ, this sucks so fucking bad man.
as I have said before....the spite cave and anxiety cave are the most dangerous

if you were a native american, your name would be "badass mother fucking quitter!!!!"
Fuck an A dude! They should add a "like" button to posts!

Yeah, the craves are so bad lately. It's like out of nowhere the ex-Bitch (or was it the other way around?) is whispering evil cave thoughts into my head. It's probably stress. My wife had a biopsy and we had to wait all week to find out if she had cancer or not......thank God it was benign. That coped with work stress, family issues, etc. BUT I did NOT cave.

I was so fucking addicted for years like nothing you could imagine. If I was Native American, my nickname would be "One with bump in lip"!

Christ, this sucks so fucking bad man.
