Well i decided today is the day i quit, and thags how i ended up here...dont have a computer at the moment so please excuse the lack of grammar or spelling - typing on a phone is a nightmare. Anyways, i'm finally ready to quit and might need a pair of crutches (webstite/members) to help me do so. After getting about half way through Randy's story i knew im not going back to that dirty poison weed. So hello everyone and ill post roll tomorrow since i can not count today as a full day without a pinch.

Welcome, quitter!! Excellent decision you've made. KTC is the best thing available for support. This site is tough to navigate fully on a phone, but it can be done. There are lots of tools. Read, read, read..... then get involved.
The most important thing you need to do is post roll every morning. You'll be in the Novemeber group, and the other folks there will be your brothers/sisters in this fight. Get to know them. Swap some contact info and build some accountability. Go here:

Hey 1.99 -- you need to post roll, commit to the folks on this site and then the flood gates of support will open. But in the end this fight will come down to 1 thing - do YOU want it bad enough.

$1.99 - I like it.
Rad has you pointed in the right direction. Here's a synopsis (http://forum.killthecan.org/index.php?showtopic=7140) of who/what/when/where/why for KTC. I hope that you read it and shout if you have any questions.
I'm quit with you today and proud that you have made the decision to take your life back.

Cbird said it right bro. POST UP A DAY ONE TODAY!! Make a promise to yourself, us, your familey, everyone in the world that you will not use today. You can keep your word for a day right? Full day, half day, wtf,,,,,,,,, lets do this!!!
Lets get this quit under way my friend. Your going to love your decision. Each day you don't put the poison in your pie hole the better your life will be.
My worst day without the poison is better than my best day with it.
One day at a time and you get a lot of what the poison has stolen back. Never again for any reason and you can keep it.

$1.99.... Never is not an option, but now sounds like a pretty fucking smart idea.
You are making THE best decision of your life. Single/Married/Divorced, Kids/NoKids, Job/NoJob, Girls/Guys, it doesn;t matter... You CHOOSE today to stop something that is killing you every time you put in a pile of poison in your mouth... And it is that simple... Every day, CHOOSE to post Roll, CHOOSE to stay quit, CHOOSE to save yourself.
We are ALL here for you and want to see you succeed! Welcome aboard, and hang on tight... you are in for a bumpy (but oh so worthy) ride...

Glad to see that you posted roll my friend. Welcome to the first day of a long life of freedom!!! If you need anything at all feel free to pm me or any other bad ass quitter on this site.

Never is definitely not an option, what I had in mind is - now is the day this bullshit stops. I must say I did not read anywhere on this forum that I could not use a nicotine patch, I got a really bad craving got into a fight with the wife and figured i'll throw this thing on see if it helps. Is that considered caving? If so I guess I fucked up already...but i'd rather do that then put that poison in my mouth.
-
On to the proper intro...
No kids, just a wife. Recently married, and the wife is already trying to kill me with nagging. Past few weeks have been hell, she has found every way possible to push my buttons. With that said, I still want to quit now, not tomorrow, not another year from now, which brings me to another point - been a user of poison about 5-6 years. I had a drinking problem too, but one day I just had enough of it and stopped, I know a lot of people would have not called it a problem but to me it was excessive (the frequency of drinking not the amount consumed) so I cut it right out of my life after reading a book about drinking by the author Allen Carr. My main hobby is working on cars other than that, its work and daily life activities, used to involve dipping and drinking but I think it's time to cut that shit out. So once again "hello" and thank you for explaining how to post on a phone.
-
One dollar,, very glad to have you but if the patch is still on its not welcome here. We quit here. We jump all the way in the quit pool. We don't just dangle our feet and sit on the edge.
You want freedom,, you gotta take it. The poison comes in many forms, patch included.
Don't be fooled into thinking one form of the poison is better than another. Nicotine is what your addicted to...
Pull that patch off and let's really quit bro!!!

A nocotine patch is definantly a cave. THROW that shit away, BURN it, FLUSH it, whatever it takes to get rid of it. All that patch will do for you is keep you in a constant state of withdrawl and keep you in the fog and the suck even longer. PM me if you need anything.

The patch is off 'bang head' . I'm glad I found out it was not an option, as a matter of fact i'll go grab the rest of them and toss them in the trash. So when I post roll tomorrow I must say: Onedollar99cents - Day 1? I'm trying to catch up on all the info within KTC, it may require a bit of time for me to catch up and figure out the rules, but for starters I've decided to make a deck of cards with all of the cancer pics from KTC. I'll keep those in my wallet so I could have a harsh reminder if the thought of buying another can ever crosses my mind - which will happen.

Nope. Today is still day one. Day 1 is the day you quit. Now your quit bro. Slave no more.. Its going to be rough for a couple minutes give or take, but you can and will do this.

Now you are talkin! Welcome aboard man. No pain - no gain. Rip that patch pff and get ready. Nicotine is a formidable opponent, but if you post roll daily first thing and if you are a man of your word - you will do this.
If you lack integrity, this isn't a site for you. The people that succeed here keep their word to themselves an d each other. I think you'll fit on nicely.
Welcome aboard. If you need anything. - let me know!

The rules are easy.
1. No nic in any form.
2. Post roll every day like it is your job.
3. Honor your word.
4. Don't go in the other room with GMANN alone.....
You Can Do This!!!

Of course it's hard to stay quit, but I bet it's a lot harder to stay alive when you get cancer. Thanks for the encouragement, and i'll post day 2 tomorrow.

Thank you, I will keep my word. The accountability idea is what really brought me here, I can stay true to myself but with nicotine it obviously has not worked otherwise I would not be here. I want to quit for myself but it does help knowing I'm not the only one going through this. :D

We are all in this together, take it one day at a time, post roll everyday and repeat. Good to be quit wit u.

PM'd you my number one. I expect a call or a text. I'm tryna build a network here with some people to help ensure my sobriety from the black dog shit. I don't wanna go back there, but I'm a forgetter and I need folks around who remember the truth when I don't. Help me out with that. Together we can be quit. Peace.

We are all just $5 and a bad decision away from disaster. That's why we are all here. Even the vets are not immune to this problem. Thus trade numbers and holding one another accountable. Give this guy your number and as many others as you can. If you are worried I've spent a huge amount of time with this guy texting over that last two days. He is a quitter! Glad to be quit with you.
-
$1.99 - I've been reading what's going on so far. First, congratulations on deciding to quit. There are many things in your life that happen to you in which you may not have much control. But, your quit is one thing that you have absolute control over! You decide how this is going to go. Not me, not anyone else on this site. This quit is for you.
Having said that, we all know and understand what getting off nic does to us. We know that it feels like. Trust me on this, your wife is not nagging you. I will bet my ass she is fully supportive of you. This is going to suck for a while - get used to it. Embrace it and, love your wife, she is dealing with your withdrawal too, don't forget that. I know it will be tempting to be short with others. Just remember my words here - bring that shit to us, not your family. We can deal with it.
This frustration feeling will pass as you get that shit out of your system. We are right behind you supporting you. Your wife - I'm sure - is supporting you.
This my friend is all part of the fog. Some call it the suck. That seems appropriate. Embrace it. Own it and don't ever forget it. You are about to find out what quitting is worth. Once you bust through, your life will be better than it was with nic.
We have all been there. My advice - the fog is like a kick in the balls. You just have to deal with it until it goes away. It always does go away.
Congratulations $1.99 on quitting dip. Throwing the patch away was the second best thing to do. Experiencing the fog, or the suck as part of a cold-turkey quit is something that only the toughest badasses can do. We have all done it. You are about to experience it. Once you come out on the other side, you will be part of a group of guys who took control over something as serious as nic and beat that bitch. That makes you one tough bastard. Glad to have you on my team.
You are taking your life back one day at a time. That is impressive.
-
I really appreciate all of your replies. Have to do the whole phone thing all over again. The computer is fucking up but i figured out how to post roll properly. 'boob'
The fog is not really that big of an issue for me. Ive been living through fog close to a year. What i mean by this, i only dipped when i got back from work, where as before it used to be close to a can a day. I just could not quit completely, after a few days i would go ape shit and give in. I did a few weeks here and there on my own, but it was mainly due to a surgery of the throat and some other bullshit that kept me away from the nic. Somehow i just could not pull it together, and i know exactly why, i would always forget the reasons why i was quitting. I would forget about rotten gums, loose teeth and pains in the throat due to acid reflux. But KTC and the support group is a good way to keep a reminder in my head. Day 2 and one day at a time is how it will be.
-
Today i feel a bit hungover but i cant tell you how great it is to walk outside and be anle to smell the grass, trees, even dog dhit may be...for the first time in years. So damn glad im quit with you all, glad i found this place, and glad the nic bitch is no longer in control of every decission i make.

Congrats sounds like a great Sunday!

Got a bit hammered today and chewed on some hooch, found an empty can of grizzly and took a smell from it, the fuck? It smells like cigarettes!!! Holly shit i almost barfed all over the place. How come i never noticed that before? I guess i was so used to that nasty death smell that it did not bother me. Im so glad to be here, the craves are a walk in the park even after a few beers, and the support circle i have is so badass!!! ODAAT!!!
Btw tossed that shit and also rounded up some old spit bottles, they were all dried out and smelled like a hookers ass.

Your rocken this quit bro. Proud of you. Got to get onto you a little though. Take it for what it is.
Keep that filthy disgusting poison as far away from you as possible. Don't give in to your addict brain telling you to smell it. Yes it stinks,, it's the smell of slavery and death. Me and you smelled that poison for umpteen years. We are done!!!! We don't smell, taste or look with desire.
Be careful drinking. Drinking has ruined quits. Look how close you had the poison to your pie hole. Don't think for one second you are in the clear brother. Your got a great quit going, but your addict brain probes. It looks for the perfect time.
Since I've been here i've see to many failures. Guys with a lot more days then you. Quit with you bro.

How do guys handle a few drinks? I've avoided having even 1 beer in the last 12 days incase it becomes a trigger. I don't drink much so 1-2 for me would be 3-4 for a more normal guy. But eventually I might just want a beer or will go on vacation where alcohol is all around. Thoughts? How are guys successful with this? Or will it be easier a month or two more into it than I am now?

How do guys handle a few drinks? I've avoided having even 1 beer in the last 12 days incase it becomes a trigger. I don't drink much so 1-2 for me would be 3-4 for a more normal guy. But eventually I might just want a beer or will go on vacation where alcohol is all around. Thoughts? How are guys successful with this? Or will it be easier a month or two more into it than I am now?
I don't think there is a profound answer. My answer would be to many is to many. Not trying to be smart. You actually answered that yourself. No your limits and then drink less than what you even THINK they are. It comes down to how important this quit is to you. glad to be quit with both of you.

Talking with this brother every day is helping to save my life. I just wanted to acknowledge that and let you know you are one hell of a quitter. Shoulder to shoulder man. Lets keep doing this thing.
Peace.
Thats right shoulder to shoulder! I changed my mind about coffee, i need to stay awake, ill deal with acid reflux later. 'crackup'
Both of you quitters are bad asses.
;)
Dig it! Using the site as it is intended!
:D
Got a bit hammered today and chewed on some hooch, found an empty can of grizzly and took a smell from it, the fuck? It smells like cigarettes!!! Holly shit i almost barfed all over the place. How come i never noticed that before? I guess i was so used to that nasty death smell that it did not bother me. Im so glad to be here, the craves are a walk in the park even after a few beers, and the support circle i have is so badass!!! ODAAT!!!
Btw tossed that shit and also rounded up some old spit bottles, they were all dried out and smelled like a hookers ass.
Your rocken this quit bro. Proud of you. Got to get onto you a little though. Take it for what it is.
Keep that filthy disgusting poison as far away from you as possible. Don't give in to your addict brain telling you to smell it. Yes it stinks,, it's the smell of slavery and death. Me and you smelled that poison for umpteen years. We are done!!!! We don't smell, taste or look with desire.

Thanks Srans, I think you're right of course. Makes sense. Now to figure out what my limits are when I'm ready.

Better get posting in Feb 2014 Monty. Get that Day 1 posted and start making good on your promise again to yourself and the rest of your brothers here who have been with you all the way. Get humble and answer the questions, get in constant contact with brothers here and be vigilant about your commitment to your quit. You know how to reach me anytime and I expect a call or a text BEFORE you decide to stuff that black dog shit in your face again.
Peace.

The price of re-admission is truthfully answering the three questions that have been proferred to all who have caved and attempted a comeback. You need to answer all three and post the responses in your old group and in Feb. '14, your new group. Be honest in your answers and try to learn something about yourself.
(1) What happened to make you cave?
(2) Why did it happen?
(3) What are you gonna do differently in this quit, to avoid the same thing from happening again?

$1.99, Your attitude seems great. You feel like shit. Good, that feeling will do you well at this stage but won't last forever. You expect to be shit on. Good, that will probably happen. There are those here that have been itching for a target for their nic rage. It will also pass. You said that "I've thrown away everything I've worked for". I think that overlooks one major thing. You've worked to break some of the triggers. You've re-trained your brain to recognize that it can survive without nicotine. You've created connections that will (if you allow it) last for a lifetime. You were once a member of the Sky Divers. You may have shifted to another group but I think it's safe to speak for the rest of the group here when I say, You are a Sky Diver for life (as long as you are posting roll). That doesn't mean that you post roll with us anymore, but I would be disappointed if you don't post support with us on a regular basis if not every day. I mean, you have my phone number and you can always call or text any time. I would expect EVERY member of our group to feel the same way. Take your lumps, give serious thought to the questions and answer them when you have truly given them the thought they deserve, and post roll every damn day. There is a mindset that is created when you don't give yourself the freedom to miss a day. It creates a mindset of "never let your guard down" and you could have used that recently. Posting every day will help you get into that frame of mind. I want you to cross your HOF date as a 100% poster. I will post roll for you any day you need help. Ask around, I do that for about 15 different people in our group and I'll do that for you in your new group (just remind me so I don't accidentally post in Nov 13.
I said on our wall that I'm pissed at you and I am but I'm also damn proud of you. You didn't make excuses, you simply stated the facts. You came back to us and explained what happened so that everyone here can learn from your mistake. You posted day 1 because you know it's the right thing to do and you aren't sulking and going back to the tit that you sucked on for so many years. I am more proud of that than anything else and today, I quit with you. Now, continue to get your head out of your ass..... drink (but NEVER get drunk) with those that you can't trust to protect your quit..... and post roll every damn day.

Thank you guys for the encouraging words, i'm sticking a knife in this nic bitch for good. Just been lurking around KTC and reading some things. I'm going to Maui next week with my wife and the last thing I want to do is take breaks to sip down some poison out of a can, or even think about it. I realize that i screwed up my quit at the wrong time, but in a way it was a good lesson learned - don't repeat your mistakes, and learn from other peoples mistakes. Having a few foggy moments here and there, and the sleeping pattern has been fucked up but that has gone on for quite sometime so not sure what is causing it. Once again thank you all for the support, and i'm sticking to my Sky Diver group even though i've moved my HOF date i feel attached to that group of badasses, and can't wait to read some of those HOF speeches.

Last time I've posted here was around 2013, I gave this nic bitch 8 more years of my life. How I wish I would have gotten this thing back then, but here I am again. It's been an hour without the nic bitch and I'm already feeling the fog, mood went to shit but it's time. I was planning on posting and starting my nig free journey last Monday, but wouldn't you know it, one more can, one more can, one more can turned into another week. Had so much I wanted to unload in here but fog came on quickly, fuck this nic bitch, I want my life back.

@Onedollar99cents (https://ktcforum.org/index.php?action=profile;u=7503) glad you are back but we need to clarify a few things. Today is day 1 as KTC doesn't have a day 0. Second, you need to answer the 3 questions in your new group as well as your old group:
1. what happened
2. why did it happen
3. what are you going to do differently this time?
Also, every quitter is only allowed 1 introduction so please don't create another one.
Suggest you focus on quitting one day at a time and make connections with fellow quitters. We are never cured and will always be an addict. Suggest you treat your addiction a little more serious this time.

@Onedollar99cents (https://ktcforum.org/index.php?action=profile;u=7503) ,
Now that this is altogether, make sure that you go back and read through your entire intro. See the support that you have thrown away twice. See the clues that you were given. Recognize that you can't do the same things you did back then. If you want to be quit, just do it. Don't try, just don't put that shit back in your mouth. There is really no explanation in here about your last cave and I haven't seen your current response to your plan this time. If you can man up, make a promise , and keep your word for 24 hours, then you will get a ton of support here. If you keep failing, you must realize that your failures are your own personal choice. Do you really want to choose to fail? I think it sounds like you want to quit but sometimes life is just too hard. Yes it is, life happens. Life will shit on you. Quitters stay quit no matter what, because they want to be quit and they gave their promise
Are you a quitter?
Or are you a dreamer?
Only you know the answer, but I'm the days and months and years ahead, all here will be able to see the true you. What do you want us to see? I want to see a quitter renewed. Make it happen!

Those are words spoken from experience, and anyone can read through my history and see what I have been through. And anyone can then see what I have remained quit through. It sucks when the dog dies, when the wife leaves you, when you get fired, and a million other worse things. Are any of them a good reason to start chewing again? Hell No but they are all great excuses to choose failure, to choose to lose, to choose slavery over freedom. I dont like excuses, I like quitting. How about y'all?

Personally don’t think he really wanted to quit, he only liked the sound of being a quitter. I hope he decides to face reality before his 9 lives run out.

How bad is an addicts life? When you stand around at a friends funeral using tobacco when it was tobacco that killed your friend. I was one of them and made my change 428 days ago. Some people just will never change.

@Onedollar99cents (https://ktcforum.org/index.php?action=profile;u=7503) I guess we will see you back in another 8 years for another self-loathing post whining about how you wish you were quit.
Well, those of us here make it happen. We make a promise and keep our word. There is no magic here. Just a simple formula to freedom for those willing and able to embrace the process.

There are two types of people here. The ones that get it done and the ones that don’t. Proudly, today, I got it done. I’m gonna give it hell again when tmrw gets here.

I am continually surprised by the enormity of wishy-washy and fear and laziness and weakness and apathy and ignorance and excuses and blah blah blah…
I’ve seen pretty much all of it in 8+ years here and I shouldn’t be surprised but… I am.
This intro is just so freaking textbook, boys and girls. All bark and no bite… zero substance… no balls… no drive… no effort put forth and zero fucks given.
Don’t be this guy.
I mean, really, don’t be this guy.
Take a moment and make an extreme effort to step outside yourself and take a good hard look at you in this moment and as best as you can, take a look at future you. When your soul is tied to the little can and your schedule is run by the little can and your money is wasted so the little can’s claws can sink in deeper and your thoughts are steered by the need for the little can and the joy of every activity you do is tainted by the little can and you lie for the little can so you can keep the little can your secret and your “love” for the little can clouds the reality of just how deep a hell the little can is plunging you into…
Fuck. That.
THAT is not life.
THAT is not freedom.
It’s time to KILL the little can.
Freedom is waiting.
