I used some form of tobacco for about 35 years until I decided to quit on Labor Day weekend in 2015. After 3 or 4 days without nicotine my mouth and jaw went numb and I started searching the internet to figure out why. The internet led me here and I've learned to quit and stay quit by simply posting my promise and keeping that promise, every damn day. There were a lot of great quitters before me who helped me a lot and still help me today. My advice is to be active here and build a support chain that you can rely on. 8)

OK, here we go, I've been using some form of tobacco for about 35 years. In the early days I was a "social" user. A cigarette or two at a happy hour or a few dips on a camping/fishing trip, that sort of thing. I'm a white collar worker and I didn't want anyone to know I used tobacco so I'd use after work or on weekends by myself. There are only a few close friends who even know I still messed with this stuff. Certainly not family members.
Anyway, things got worse about nine years ago. My office was closed and I started working from home where I could use tobacco all day long without anyone knowing about it. Recently the preferred tobacco has been Copenhagen long cut as for some reason Copenhagen snuff started to make me gag. I stopped smoking cigarettes in 2008 as I had developed this odd involuntary need to catch my breath every now and then. That reflex has gone away, thank God.
I've known for a while now that I need to stop. The hygienist at my dentist's office has mentioned my receding gums the last few visits. The cost of this stuff keeps going up and up as well, with more taxes on the way apparently. It was 75 cents a can for chew when I first started and now it is over 4 dollars. I may have been able to retire a few years ago had I never started down this awful path.
I've quit tobacco before and in the past I was fine after 3 days. This time however I must have been more addicted to the nicotine than I knew. After 2 or 3 days without chew my tongue and lower lip started feeling numb. That is when I found this website. I had no idea how many issues folks have with recovery from this addiction. I have a lot of brain fog and cold sweats out of the blue.
But I can't wait until day 7 because I am going to beat this addiction this time... B)B

25 year user here. White as white collar gets. Ninja as ninja gets. Fog like I can't even describe. I tried to quit every day. And then I found KTC. I have posted roll every day since I joined this great website. Haven't missed a day.
Next week I will hit 1000 days. Like you, I felt lost and hopeless. Today I am free. You can do this. If I can, you can.
Welcome aboard. If you'd like my number or any help, just send me a pm. You can't imagine how good life is gonna be. I promise.

Stranger you got this! Now that you've found KTC it's time to read as much as you can here and begin making your daily promise. We do it one day at a time here. Like Worktowin, you can contact me anytime.

Thanks guys! I'm feeling really good about this quit. I think I might be able to free myself from this curse this time. I'm still a little foggy but I have no desire to run out for another tin right how. Baby steps....

Putting your name on a list sounds pretty lame. Right? I remember thinking the same thing. Dude it works. Join us.
You will never regret quitting. Have you EVER heard anyone say... God I wish I still smoked/dipped?

Get your name in this group. You'll probably fuck it up the first time. Someone will fix it. You'll figure it out in time fighting an enemy as a team is so much more effective than fighting alone. The other December bad asses are at the same place u are. You all win.
Dude you can do this. And you'll never go through this bs again.

This, this, and more of this brother. Quit is better than not. End of story. You will be thankful for this site. This site will provide you with the tools to do this thing. All you have to do is DO IT.

Thanks all, I seem to be doing a little better tonight. The headache isn't as bad right now and I can feel my tongue again at the moment. Mentally I still feel foggy, but I am hoping that lifts as I bet I will be better at my job than I have been in ages once I finish withdrawal from nicotine. I know that the long haul will be tough but I am determined to beat this crap!
-
Hey!
Glad to have you on the site! What the others have said has been the absolute truth. I know it might seem unfathomable now, but the following is true:
- The fog will lift, and your mental clarity will be better than it has in years.
- Your numb tongue, cheeks, and gums will clear up.
- You'll realize you can enjoy everything you used to enjoy while dipping. In fact, you'll enjoy it more because you won't be worried about how you can get your next chew in.
Just keep toughing it out! You'll get to where you want to be!
-
Don't stop, quit on!

OMG I am into day 7 at this point. I had to catch myself from driving over to the convenience store to buy a can of Copenhagen long cut. This is so hard but I am glad I am still clean. :D

Great job.
Here's a little trick I've been using to get through the tough spots. Dip a cotton ball. You mentioned the price, and some of the fake stuff is more expensive than dip. After a minute or two, cotton feels like long cut.

I'm closing in on my last full week without chew since I can't even remember. :D

You are kicking ass Stranger. Cotton balls, chewing gum (regular, no nicotine), seeds... Lots of ways to ease the oral desire without giving in. 7 days is badass! The first 7 days are as bad as it gets... do whatever it takes to stay quit the next minute, the next hour, the next day. It will get better, you will heal, freedom is wonderful.
To get there, you have a weekend right now. To get through that, use the tools here at KTC. You have live chat, your quit group, hopefully digits to text or call fellow quitters, lots of good stuff to read (I'm on day 119 and still reading), the emergency topic on the quit group page, your December Groupme. Use the tools.
Many recommend avoiding alcohol on this weekend in a quit. You know your strength and your triggers. Be aware.
Own your quit. Keep on the +1s and it gets better.

Thanks Nomore!
I've bought loads of sugarless gum and sunflower seeds. I planned this quit to coincide with football season. I am watching every football game that is on TV to take my mind off that crap that used to control my life.... :P
-
Oh, and I've already saved myself about $25-$30 from what I would normally be spending on dip this week. I hope everyone reading this will see the POINTLESSNESS of spending that much a week on a product that will only kill or maim you. I am an older guy and late to the party, this quit has been tough and I should have done it years ago...
-
I'm an addict and I admit it. I am sitting here ticking away the minutes until I am at DAY 8 OF NO TOBACCO. The headaches are lessening and the fog might be lifting. I have no idea if I did anything at work this week. But I know I MADE AN EFFORT to free myself from this curse. Baby steps still....

It is almost 6 AM where I am at and I just realized that this thread is not about me. It is really a thread for everyone in the world who wants to quit tobacco. I am just about at day 8 myself and I think EVERYONE out there can quit this too! PLEASE TRY if you are reading this now.
I will keep posting in the daily promise thread - I vow to not stop. ^_^

And sorry to get "preachy" but the more days I am off chew the more I want to help others. B)B

Just don't get overbearing about it. I view the quitting thing like I view my faith in Christ. Live it, and let others see how happy you are. Smack 'em with it, and they'll fight back.

Helping others on this site will make your quit 100x stronger. The people on this site want to wuit - we have a common goal.
You are both killing it. Glad you are here.

Stranger,
I have enjoyed reading your posts as they have inspired me in the early days of my quit. Keep it up brother, your daily victories are inspiring to other people who are newbies like myself, or people just lurking out there that are thinking about quitting.
I quit with you today.

I love your user name here nomorecope - no more Copenhagen was EXACTLY what I needed in my life. My brain still expects to see a can of Copenhagen long cut sitting on the top shelf of my fridge when I open the door....
We can beat this together my friend. I'm so glad I found this website before I went nuts and caved again. Day 8 and the promise is keeping me on track for Day 9. I can't wait to post here tomorrow morning. B)B
-
Update: On purpose I drove to a distant supermarket today and went right by 4 convenience stores where I used to purchase chew. It was awesome. My next test will be actually buying something other than chew in a convenience store. I think I might attempt that at day 14 or so. Not sure.
-
Keep up your quit stranger. Nice job. Pretty soon before you know it you'll be at day 27. It is still difficult for me at day 27, but nowhere near like it was the first 10 days.
Proud to be quit with u today and tonight

Thanks JB! I am proud to be at day 8 and looking forward to getting to day 28, 48, 88, 10,008. :D
I'm so glad to have folks here keeping me honest. I vow to post every day.

I want to REALLY QUIT. Not quit like I did for a week or two in the past.
Screw you Copenhagen... 'Finger'

Good Lord - I saw a post here talking about the "time distortion" when one is quitting chew.
This is REAL.
It seems like I have been posting here since August but it has really only been since September 10th. That is only 3 days and in my mind I feel like I have been a member of this site for more than a month.
The nicotine wants me to invite it back - but I will not allow that. Stay quit my brothers and sisters - DAY 8.

OK this is really cool.
I have touched base with my last friend who dips and he is cool with my quit.
I am not sure why this should even matter to me as I am into DAY 8, but for some reason it makes me feel freer and more confident in my quit. I can't wait for day nine....

Dude thats really awesome! I'm holding off telling one of my best friends that dips because he's the type of dude that would throw me the tin and give me that grin like dude you know you want to lol. i stay quit with you bro
-
Thanks guys, you all keep me strong.
I will DO THIS and post here every day. I started messing with tobacco in the late SEVENTIES! If I can do this after that long you can too. B)B
-
My day 10 of NO TOBACCO is about to begin. I've been watching NFL games all day long in a fog. I am healing and I am starting to feel it I think. I've survived 2 weekends. This is really awesome.
We can all do this. If I can you can. Throw out that can...
-
White collar as well, I work in retail and would dip at work from time to time. I was so ashamed by it that I'd hide it from my employees. None of them knew and I couldn't bear the thought of them finding out, but I kept doing it. Guess you could define that as addiction. Glad to see you on here and look forward roll call every day!! Good Luck

I hid from everyone - I was GREAT AT HIDING. Hiding and buying chew or cigarettes is all I have been doing for at least a decade or two. NO MORE. I am posting here every day as I rid myself of this awful addiction. Day 10 is tomorrow and I can't wait until Day 11.
-
Double digit days of being quit is so close that I can't believe it. This is a battle between myself and my brain. The nicotine has been gone for 6 days at least. I WILL DO THIS. I vow to post on the quit thread tomorrow.
-
I really want to thank everyone who has helped me with this quit. :D
My brain has not been functioning and I bet there have been some posts supporting me that I have not responded to. It is not because I am ignoring you, it is because I have been in a complete no nicotine fog since I've joined this site. LOL.
When I am free of this shit I know I will be a better poster.

You don't need to respond. Just post roll and quit and you will never owe another apology on this site. We can all live with everything else, just don't quit posting roll.
Mogul. enjoying reading about your quit. I quit with ya today.

Stranger,
So great to see you getting to double digits brother. It's been great observing your journey. I'm only on day 5, but I just want to warn you about getting overconfident. She will hit you hard soon! Stay hard and strong brother.
We quit together.
December quit group needs us to stay quit.

Day 10 is rolling along and I am still quit.
I just trimmed down my left thumb nail. You know, that nail you purposely grow a little longer so it will easily cut through the wrapping of a can of Copenhagen long cut.
I can't believe I forgot about that until just now. LOL

That's another thing I won't miss - catching my thumb nail on something and tearing it. OUCH! :P

Greetings all from day 11.
I spent last night tossing and turning and probably only got an hour of sleep. I don't remember that happening since the early days of my quit. I'm not sure if this is that "last visit from the nicotine bitch" or my system just could not handle the anxiety of last nights Eagles game. I'm hoping the latter.
I got up, made some coffee and started work. This seems to be my most productive day since I started my quit. I think the fog is on the run.
Oddly though my pinch fingers still seem to smell a little bit like Cope. Does it just take a while for the fingertips to get clean? My other thought is that I am picking that odor up from my keyboard and mouse. Or maybe both? Of course maybe it is just in my head. :P
-
My guess is your keyboard, it took months before every little bit of dried up bit of Skoal was out of my desk drawer. I won't smell your fingers but probably could find someone who will.
11 days is BAD ASS by the way!

Haha! I forgot about that, I know exactly what your mean. It seems like it was years ago that I used to do that. This time warp concept is real, it was only 6 days ago that I was opening my last can, seems like forever. Crazy.
Keep on keepin' on stranger,
We quit with you.
-
To be honest I panicked a little when I realized I still had the thumb nail. I thought perhaps my subconscious had decided I'm not going to stay quit.
The thumb nail is gone. I'm staying quit.
Stay strong - I quit with you all today.
-
I was thinking same thing earlier today boy it fucking feels like forever since I quit even tho today is day 6!. The nicotine withdrawals are gone but I have the worst neck pain EVER! It's excruciating

I was thinking same thing earlier today boy it fucking feels like forever since I quit even tho today is day 6!. The nicotine withdrawals are gone but I have the worst neck pain EVER! It's excruciating
Focus on day 7 my brother. It does seem to get better with each day.
On Day 12. It does get better with each day. I don't seem to have the major cravings anymore, just a few here and there that go away fairly quickly. I'm still finding myself sitting there thinking that I should be doing something (with the Nic Bitch), but I kicked that NIC BITCH out nearly 2 weeks ago...never to return. I stay quit with all of you!!!

On day 11 I still have some mouth numbness. The good news is it is not nearly as bad as day 4 or 5 when I felt like every glass of water was going to spill right down my chest. I've been drinking 2 cups of black coffee in the morning and drinking about 2 liters of water every day after that. I've chewed about 3 or 4 packs of sugarless gum just to keep my mouth busy. I've been trying to get in a little light exercise every day as well. I suck at exercise almost as bad as I used to suck at quitting dip. :P
The fog now actually lifts every now and then but there are still moments where I find myself staring at the walls without knowing what I was just doing. BRING ON DAY 12!
I quit with you all.

The three of you have saved way over $125 so far. You'll be stacking Benjamins damn fast at this rate. Pretty sweet that you are saving money, saving your life, and getting a lot of time back too. Yep, there is done pain. But there is a fuckton of gain. December Rox.

I wish there was a finish line. I've used nicotine for 35 years on and off. Every time I thought I had quit I kept going back. And going back and back for years at a time. I thought I could sneak it in every now and then. I thought I could just hide away and "ninja" it. There is nothing left to do but admit I am a fucking addict.
I think the only way is to post roll every day and leave myself this message in a bottle so that future me understands why he shouldn't cave again someday.
I quit with you all peeps.

Fuck - I just read that part again. How much money did I spend over my life to be drinking water like a fucking baby.
FUCK YOU COPENHAGEN!!! 'Finger'

Believe it or not I do not use much profanity in day to day life. I usually avoid it. I think I just use it here to emphasize parts of my quit. The money I've spent in my lifetime to give myself a dead mouth just brought that one out. cowboy

I've been using a lot of profanity I just can't help it right now this shit is pissing me off! I went to the doctor after work because my neck felt like it was going to break off my shoulders. He told me to take alieve and also proscribed me Ativan to help with the quit? After I got the prescription and read the side effects online I threw that shit out. I don't need that crap. Idiot fucking Doctor

I've been using a lot of profanity I just can't help it right now this shit is pissing me off! I went to the doctor after work because my neck felt like it was going to break off my shoulders.

Idiot fucking Doctor
I'm not sure what that drug is. I'm not attempting to replace the nicotine with anything but cold turkey. I think that is the way to go. I'm just going to post roll here everyday and make you bastards hold me to it... B)B
I used to smoke a cig when I was quitting chew and have a chew when I was quitting cigs. How screwed up is that? I never admitted to myself that the real culprit was the nicotine - and that I am an addict. I was just flipping back and forth between two bitches and a few weeks off here and there.
The good news is that I don't in any way feel like I am going to end up on my back at the emergency room. The nicotine bitch is not as strong as she thinks she is. LOL

Ativan, I've had that before.
About a year ago, I tried to quit on my own, made it about 7 days. I broke down after a jiu jitsu tournament, I was so exhausted and I felt I "deserved" a dip, you know, just this one time.
Well, I finished that can the next day and then I decided to quit again, before the nic bitch got too strong. About 2 days into that stop, I was driving on the interstate and I was having symptoms of shortness of breath, chest tightness, nausea, sweating etc.
The symptoms were getting so serious, I started thinking that I was having a heart attack. I pulled over and called 911, EMTs arrived and took me to ER.
By the time I arrived at the ER, I was honestly feeling like it was game over. I thought I was dying. I was almost convulsing.
Well, they hooked me up to an IV, and administered Ativan.
It chilled me out, quickly.
I was relaxed in about 5 minutes.
It's usually prescribed for people with anxiety disorders, which, as I described above, can present itself while battling withdrawals.
So, I'd say avoid it if you don't absolutely need it, but if you're experiencing serious anxiety and constant worry, it might be something to consider.
I'm not a doctor, I'm just relaying my experience with it. It did help me during one of the scariest moments in my life, but I haven't taken anything else since and am now doing fine.
Quit on brother, we're quit together.

Damn dude that's intense I tossed it in the trash I'm good just suffering the expected withdrawals from quitting cold turkey. I quit with you man and happy to quit with such an awesome group. Have a good night see you at roll

Good lord nomorecope, I thank the God that you are not going through that again. We will beat this here on good old KTC.

I am NOT out of the woods at all and this quit still sucks major balls. Copenhagen long cut can blow me. I am placing this post here to remind myself how much day 11-12 actually sucked even though I know at the moment it was better than a few days a go. My mouth and lip are still a bit numb. I was in a cold sweat and got an hour of sleep last night. It is almost 12:30 tonight and I am still awake. I am praying I can sleep tonight.
I feel better than I did when I decided to quit but this is in nowhere near pleasant. Don't forget to read this you dick future self. Dipping Copenhagen or smoking cigs again will completely waste this entire quit - and you will need to go through it all again. And worse you will really piss off your December quit brothers on this web site. Don't FUCK UP!
-
That last one was just for me to read later.
I quit with you all folks. B)B

I have faith you in stranger you've been doing great! Get some rest you deserve it. See you at roll

Update: On purpose I drove to a distant supermarket today and went right by 4 convenience stores where I used to purchase chew. It was awesome. My next test will be actually buying something other than chew in a convenience store. I think I might attempt that at day 14 or so. Not sure.
a slightly longer drive is NOTHING if it means keeping your word, AND staying free! Nice job brother...one day at a time adds up. And trust me....it is well worth the effort now.
-
I want us all to make it RTistic - I know we can do it. Everyone swimming in to shore is how I picture it. And guns a blazing shooting those Nic Bitches. A December nicotine massacre. LOL
I am getting goofy now - I need some sleep and less fog. Will post in roll with you and everyone else in December tomorrow my friend.
I quit with you.

Yes Zam, I am still learning how to cope with being free of nicotine. I've been locked in for decades. At that time I was thinking in miles but you are right, I need to remove this regardless of where the nicotine is. B)B

She can beat down a individual but she can't take down an army. KTC we fight together! Good night

Good post.
Convenience stores still concern me. I've only stepped inside about 5 in the past 2.5 years. Guess what... There really isn't a need to go inside anymore! I don't waste 1.50 a day on a bottle of water that I take 3 sis of and pour out. No need for packs of gum to mask the taste of wintergreen flavored dog shit in my mouth any more.
You won't believe all of the great freedoms you are earning for yourself. It is sweet not being a slave.

I was thinking same thing earlier today boy it fucking feels like forever since I quit even tho today is day 6!. The nicotine withdrawals are gone but I have the worst neck pain EVER! It's excruciating

Day 12 and I'm still quit.
I had a massive wave of crave hit late this morning like a ton of bricks. I got the sweats, the shaky hands, the foggy brain, and I just wanted to curl up into a ball. I spent an hour pacing the house, taking deep breaths, and drinking my water. OMG it is only 3:30 pm and I am already into my 3rd liter of water! I've been pissing like a racehorse all day. LOL
I'm happy to report that the crave has left and I'm feeling good again.
Stay strong folks. I quit with you all.

We've been there with you and it sucks . If it happens again, go to dresser open drawer ,place your balls inside and slam at least 3 times. This is guaranteed to make you forget about dipping! Quit on my friend!

Good Job Stranger, you're making us proud.
I guess I have a few more rough ones to look forward to, if this is still happening to you on day 12.
You keep fighting through each one, keep it up! Stronger every day.
We're quit, together.

Nomorecope, I'm hoping today's incident was just a blip on the radar. If anything it was a good reminder of why I will never spend cash to put something in my mouth that tastes bad and tries to force me to spend more cash.
Day 13 is tomorrow. That is almost 2 weeks. I don't think I have been this far into a quit in AGES.
You and my other December friends are kick ass quitters. I quit with you! B)B
-
And yes, I've added an avatar to my account. I've posted on several forums over the years and I find that picking an avatar is always hard to do. You want it to match your personality but you don't want folks focusing on it so much that they don't read the shit you type.
As this forum is going to save my life the choice really took me a while.
I went with a thief running away. It might be me running away from all of those people I have lied to by being a ninja dipper. It might be the nicotine running away with a lot of my money because it has finally been defeated. It might also be any of my December peeps running away because they have caved.
I am rooting for the nicotine running away.
Just an idea - I can't wait to post roll tomorrow.
I quit with you all!

This time you have quit.

Day 13 is passing me by. I only had a minor episode of the sweats so far today and it did not last more than a few minutes. It was in the morning again and I'm not sure what the hell triggers it, but at least it wasn't anything like yesterday.
I needed to get some cash for the weekend so I went to the free ATM at the convenience store. I gulped a little bit as I pulled open the door, but there is no damn way I'm going through the rest of my life being scared to death to walk into a convenience store. In my mind I kept thinking "remember your pledge". I got my cash and suddenly it seemed like I was collecting my winnings. I got their money this week and they did not get mine.
Fuck you Copenhagen dealers! 'Finger'
I stay quit with all of you.

Coming up on 2 weeks of freedom dude. 2 solid bad ass weeks of keeping your word to yourself and your team, and of WINNING. Look back at your early posts... You've come a long way. No one ever regrets quitting. No one.

Thanks man - I just got done reading this entire thread again. I'm reading it from start to finish every day so I never forget the suck. My brothers and sisters here help me a lot, but reading my own words here really strike home.
I can't wait to post roll tomorrow. :D

In my mind I kept thinking "remember your pledge". I got my cash and suddenly it seemed like I was collecting my winnings. I got their money this week and they did not get mine.
Fuck you Copenhagen dealers! 'Finger'
I stay quit with all of you.
Coming up on 2 weeks of freedom dude. 2 solid bad ass weeks of keeping your word to yourself and your team, and of WINNING. Look back at your early posts... You've come a long way. No one ever regrets quitting. No one.
Thanks man - I just got done reading this entire thread again. I'm reading it from start to finish every day so I never forget the suck. My brothers and sisters here help me a lot, but reading my own words here really strike home.
I can't wait to post roll tomorrow. :D
Sweats, shits, dizzy, constipation, foggy it's all better than cancer! Quit on!

Day 13 is passing me by. I only had a minor episode of the sweats so far today and it did not last more than a few minutes. It was in the morning again and I'm not sure what the hell triggers it, but at least it wasn't anything like yesterday.

Wait, I never said I had constipation. The bowels are working better than they did before I quit. Is this something else I will have to look forward to as well? :blink:
If so BRING IT ON. I've quit, I will post roll tomorrow, and I quit with you all!

Almost to day 14. There have been a lot of new quitters showing up today and frankly I don't know who is going to stay quit and who is going to disappear. Some of the introduction threads look a bit shaky but then again I think mine might have been a bit shaky too. I am addicted to nicotine just like everyone else here. We would all be in the same boat, except there is no boat - nicotine just throws us out in the ocean to drown.
I want anyone reading this thread to feel my resolve now. If it pumps you up for another tobacco free day tomorrow so much the better.
Let's face it, quitting dip is hard BY DESIGN. The companies that make dip need you to be hooked. The governments who tax it need you to be hooked. The only loser is YOU!
I will to be here tomorrow to post my vow on roll. Will you join me?
I look forward to seeing your names with mine.

Day 14 has been super calm. I had a moment or two of the sweats but other than that it was a great day. I would have been on the forum more today but I was catching up on all the work I blew off when I was in the fog. LOL.
I'm quit and I can't wait to post roll tomorrow. Join me there.
I quit with you all!

Yeah bro! Small victories, hour by hour, day by day.
Great job Stranger, I'll see you posting roll tomorrow. Let's make it a nic free weekend.
We are brothers in quit.

Thanks my brother!
I have college football to watch all day tomorrow and then I will be going to the Eagles/Dallas game on Sunday. I have plenty of stuff to do without nicotine. B)B
Not dipping is really freeing up my day. I don't have to wait that 30 minutes to get my nicotine fix before I can leave the house. I don't have to make sure I have a tin around so I can put that dip in after a meal or just before I want to take a dump. I'm finding I have so much more time in my day to day life to do more of the stuff that I really want to do.
I had that crap in my mouth for hours a day. I'd suck every last drop of nicotine out of it before I would spit it out. That's just crazy! I always knew it too - that is the awful part.
I'm quit and I will post roll tomorrow.

Day 15 and I had my first dip dream. I don't recall dreaming about putting a dip in my mouth ever before.
Anyway I woke up and I'm quit. I can't wait to post roll again tomorrow with the rest of my December peeps.

Dip dreams suck. But they also remind you that you are winning.
It ducks that you wake up terrified of failure and sweaty. It is super awesome to snap out of it and feel victorious.
-
Your are just about through anther weekend of quit!
Yes, you will see turmoil in your quit group now and then. Learn from it without getting swept up in it. The posting you do here and on your fellow Decembros intros builds on accountability and brotherhood. That is how quit works.
You all have some rough days ahead -- but as you are seeing it gets better. Keep eachother strong, spread the accountability and brotherhood, and QLF!
-
Stranger, you're doing it right. You're getting involved with your group and the community, posting roll meticulously, and reviewing your quit regularly. Damn proud to be quit alongside you, and I hope the rewards of quitting are becoming more and more evident as the days add up.
-
I'm almost done day 16. Today was a big step. My brother and I hosted a tailgate party before today's Eagles/Dallas game. One of our guests brought cigars and offered them around. I declined, but I went farther than that, I told everyone that I have an addiction to nicotine and that I've removed it from my life. It got a little quiet at that moment but everyone was cool with it. I told them I didn't want to be a buzz kill, the stuff just isn't for me anymore.
It would have been a perfect day, except my football team sucked as bad as they ever have today. :P

Yeah, in my dream I suddenly realized that I had to get the dip out of my mouth immediately, and that I would then have to face KTC and start at day 1 again on roll. When I woke up it was like "did that just happen? WTF". Then I just laughed because I know I am still quit. :D

Brother you can do this!

Hiya Stranger... You haven't updated your intro lately. Let's hear from a quitter who gets it how it is going!

Hi W2W - I am doing well tonight. I haven't updated my introduction thread as nothing really significant has happened to me lately as far as my quit goes. I'm at day 22, I get an occasional bit of fog but generally that is it.
I am at a friend's house tonight. We are driving up to the Meadowlands tomorrow to watch our Eagles play the Jets. I brought my laptop along so that I can post roll with my December brothers in the morning. I know I could just text it in but I like making sure it gets done. B)B

Hell yes something significant has happened you're on 22 day's of freedom!

Day 24 is coming to a close. Today was off and on fog pretty much all day long. I was hoping to get more work done at my job today but I really had trouble focusing. That Eagles victory I was at yesterday probably contributed to that. LOL
I've been reading some of the quit group threads that are ahead of my group to try to get an idea of what to expect down the road. At 24 days you'd think that most of the water is already under the bridge but apparently I still have some rough days ahead of me. I shouldn't be too surprised as I know I've quit in the past by myself for lengthy periods of time and I always ended up right back using nicotine again. I've concluded that quitting alone sucks. Maybe some people can do this but I think I need folks to lean on.
There was a pretty intense argument the other day about posting roll and the policing of roll in the November 15 thread. At issue was a member missing roll by accident and how zealous folks were about calling him out on it. I can see both sides of this. No one wants to be a jerk but you are a jerk if you don't speak up while someone caves.
I think this is where having digits and other folks having your digits comes into play. If I have the digits, when I see that someone in my group is not on roll late in the day I send them a text, just a quick "how are you doing, you aren't on roll" message. I've had a 100% success rate with this so far. I want this to work the other way around too. If I'm not on roll I'd hope my phone starts buzzing as the day moves along. I think that is the way it should work. Yeah might be a little scary giving out your phone number to a stranger but it might also save your life someday. It also might save that stranger's life. :D

Outstanding! Often a quiet reminder is enough. Yes some quitters will get in your face early -- but they are trying to cut through suck, fog, and addict mindsets to get to where you are. Roll EDD is a big deal down the line as quitters who do not post like a Chicago voter (early often) will drift away later and be away from support when nicotine strikes.
In August, we put up a lunchtime list of who was not on roll to aid the reminders. It helps if you know who is working night shift or in a different time zone so you aren't buzzing people while they sleep. Perhaps one of the Disciples could ease into this.

It all seems so straight forward to me. If I am not here to be held accountable and hold "like minded" brothers accountable in return then why am I here?

Keep up your quit stranger. Nice job. Pretty soon before you know it you'll be at day 27. It is still difficult for me at day 27, but nowhere near like it was the first 10 days.
Proud to be quit with u today and tonight
Man JB, you were spot on here. I'm at day 27 now and for whatever reason it has been tough again today. I felt like I was back at day 4 for a while. :P
I think the key is to stay on guard and not get complacent. I spent some time reading some cave posts tonight. I try to project myself into that member's shoes and think about how I would deal with whatever situation the member was facing at the time. I'm hoping this is a good strategy. I will be quit for a full four weeks on Saturday and I'm pretty psyched to get into month two.

Ups and downs, but mostly ups now.
Remember, you poisoned you brain for a long time. Recovery isn't overnight. But it does happen over time. Quit with you today. Can't wait to post tomorrow!

Keep up the support for your fellow quitters. I found that really helped me when I felt weak. If I could help another quitter, it made me feel good, and in turn helped get rid of that blah feeling you're going through right now. You're doing awesome Stranger. I'll quit with you any damn day. Today is a day so I'll quit with you today!

Planning never worked for me either.
For example, this year I had planned to quit in late July/early August as I was scheduled to get some dental work done. I even went out and bought a bunch of gum thinking that I'd use it once my quit began. That planned quit never happened. For whatever reason when the time came I didn't quit. I'm sure I gave myself a million reasons to buy another can of Copenhagen long cut, and I probably told myself I would quit for real on New Year's Eve or on my birthday next year.
By Friday September 4th, the day before I quit, the only plan I had was to go out and purchase 2 more cans of Copenhagen long cut for the long Labor day weekend. That day happened to be a crazy day at work and I never got around to buying those extra cans. I ran out of chew later that night - I used every last grain of that shit. I probably would have bought more but I had a few drinks and I didn't want to risk a DUI on Labor Day weekend just running out for a few more cans.
I woke up Saturday September 5th with no dip in the house and I put my foot down - I decided to just gut it out without dip for the next three days to see what would happen. It was more awful than I expected and I found this site and joined a few days later - I am thankful for that. :D
I guess the point is that this did not start for me until the chew was gone and I had decided not to use nicotine anymore. I'm glad I didn't wait until my birthday or some other random date in the future. I should be about 150 days quit by my birthday next year and that will be a great birthday present.
Day 31 is almost over. I am happy that I have made it this far and thanks so much to everyone who has been supporting me! :D
I posted the above on some non-quitter's introduction thread and I just wanted to move it over here as I like this post and I don't want to lose it. The dental work was a crown on one of my rear molars. It was two visits and both times I needed two shots of Novocain to get through the drilling. Even though I had "planned" to quit around that time after both visits I remember putting a dip in my mouth as soon as I got home. With the Novocain I could hardly spit correctly. That was a pretty screwed up time for me and might have actually led to me finally ditching the can. Or maybe it was just one of the final straws - I know I had to DECIDE FOR MYSELF that I was really going to quit.
Stay quit my friends.

Hey stranger, 1 month, that's badass my friend! After day 2 I remember the addict mind telling me, damn this shits way to hard ,is it really worth all this bullshit? Look you dipped 38 year's you don't have cancer, what's the odds of you getting it now? The olé addict brain never gives up, it's kinda like the little evil voice telling you one more drink not gonna bother you before you have to drive home. We make our own choices , don't drive at all or don't drink before we drive but you're a grown ass man no one's gonna tell you what to do. So if you hear that little addict voice telling you , one dip would be so good and no one has to ever know. Step on the bitches neck and let her know who's in charge! Learn to smile at hard times, it works. This is your quit, own it and control it Odaat!

Thanks man.
As I start into week 6 of being quit, I realize every day that this is a new reality. Me without Copenhagen long cut in my mouth.
5 weeks ago I didn't think that was possible. It really is possible and anyone reading this can make it happen. You just need to decide to do it.
I went to a party tonight. A few folks were smoking cigarettes and it didn't really affect me at all. Someone offered me some weed and I turned that down. I'm in this for the long haul folks. I think we should all make a plan for that. Day 100 will be here at some point. What happens after that?
Day 101. I hope everyone is ready for day 101 as it might be as important as day 1.
-
Day 101 is like most others. We aren't cured yet. Our quit is still a roller coaster. But life is better. The important thing is to realize we are addicts. That brotherhood and accountability will help us quit another day, ODAAT, EDD.
Like you, I have 35 years of dipping wired into my brain... that will take quite a few +1s to rewire. I used to wake dip, now I wake post. Life is better, I have a "extra" $50 a week, and I am free. I'll post everyday to keep that.

Wow let's ask ourselves this, how has my life changed since I quit nic? If that don't fire you up and get you to smiling, check your pulse! We will always be addicts but as long as we post and keep our word, Never user's again! 101 is better than 100 because it's another +1! Quit on my brother's and sisters!

Hey stranger, just spreading some Disciple / quit love on your intro thread.
Proud to be quit with you!
Thanks man.
As I start into week 6 of being quit, I realize every day that this is a new reality. Me without Copenhagen long cut in my mouth.
5 weeks ago I didn't think that was possible. It really is possible and anyone reading this can make it happen. You just need to decide to do it.
I went to a party tonight. A few folks were smoking cigarettes and it didn't really affect me at all. Someone offered me some weed and I turned that down. I'm in this for the long haul folks. I think we should all make a plan for that. Day 100 will be here at some point. What happens after that?
Day 101. I hope everyone is ready for day 101 as it might be as important as day 1.
Wow let's ask ourselves this, how has my life changed since I quit nic? If that don't fire you up and get you to smiling, check your pulse! We will always be addicts but as long as we post and keep our word, Never user's again! 101 is better than 100 because it's another +1! Quit on my brother's and sisters!

Thanks Pab Nomore1959.
I'm about to complete 37 days here without nicotine. I'm already a third of the way to the HOF, and I am keeping track of the pre-HOF groups and January.
This is a challenge. Had I not gotten support here I probably would have caved weeks ago. My advice to others is to build a network here. I think Fowlmouth in January said that it is like a spider building a web of support. I like that analogy. B)B

You're doing great! You're learning that staying involved helping others also helps you. The mental part sucks but nothing you can't handle. Remember my brother I'm one pm away if you need me! ODAAT! EDD! Quit on!
-
If you need me feel free to PM for anything 999! Quit on. Lets win together.
-
999 = bababa
Thats 3 times BA!
Totally respect your fight....
You helping others...will always help you.
Your battle is won today.
Stay away from yesterday and tomorrow.
That is where she is waiting on you.
Dont ever go there.
I quit with you now...
Now is where we will remain successful.

55 Days!
I'm not a military guy, but several of the men in my group are. I remember, around this point, them talking about how they were tired of the battle. It seemed like there was day after day of fighting the craves - sometimes almost to the point of exhaustion. Sleep was jacked, mouth hurt, anger and rage were consuming, and I just remember all of us were tired. It was a tough place.
Stranger, I promise you... Brighter days are just ahead. And then even brighter days... And then brighter! You are mastering the art of quitting, and you are about to reap the rewards. Trust me... While this is much more of a marathon than a sprint, you are at the cusp of some great days.
I'm honored to quit with you today, sir.

I'm wrapping up day 62. My quit is going well although I still have some mouth issues and some occasional fog. These issues are slowly improving so I am not really worried about them at this point in time. Life is SO MUCH BETTER than it was on September 4th.
I reread my introduction thread again tonight. There is at least one person from my quit group who replied here who has caved, another that I am pretty sure caved, and a third who didn't want to post roll with my group and then showed up a few weeks ago on our roll to tell me that I was "disdainful and egotistic".
I thought about these people tonight and I hope they are all doing well. People here will leave the community. It doesn't mean that they are bad people, it just means that nicotine was too strong for them to resist, or that they didn't understand or agree with this website's message. Everyone is different. If you buy into being held accountable you will be here every morning ready to go.
I'm still here and I have quit for today. I vow to be here tomorrow.

You are bad ass.
The cavers are part of your quit. They are reminders that you are a winner and a glimpse of a life you have left behind... A life of deceit and shame.
The people who have left or are thinking of leaving are part of your quit. Because they have one foot back in bed with nicotine. And they are also telling you that this isn't a priority for them- brotherhood isn't as important as their addiction. Screw them.
The ones that post with you and text... Are obviously part of your quit. Salt of the earth. These will be lifelong relationships. Everyone wins.
Proud to quit with you today sir.

Good reflection Stranger, keep leading the way!
-
Congratulations on 69 days of freedom!!! Hope you, um, celebrate appropriately!
-
Nice work Brother. Like the reflections. Thanks for your efforts, they do not go unnoticed.
-
You're doing awesome my friend! Building up quiet a quit stable. Staying active and proving your accountability is huge! Keep doing what you're doing it's not going unnoticed! Damn proud to be quit with you today my friend! Quit on!
-
Thanks my friends. 69 + 1 day = 70 and that is 10 weeks. That's not the HOF but to me it feels like a bit of a milestone. I think the last time I stopped using nicotine I may have made it 1 week. This means that I've already had 10 times more success quitting here than I did trying to quit by myself. I'm proud to quit with all of you today.
I vow to be on roll tomorrow. B)B

It gets even better Stranger. 1 month til HOF, and I promise it gets even better after that. You're one hell of a leader in December. Keep it up, it'll pay dividends in your quit.

I'm finishing day 81. I'm taking vacation from work this week and normally I would have fingered through 3 cans by now. I guess my message today is "don't let a vacation cause you to cave to the can". I can't believe how much less stress I have in my life today. I'm not planning for that "dip time" anymore. I'm not adjusting my schedule around a plant. If this is freedom I want more!
I quit with you all today.

That whole planning and executing dip time is precisely the reason we're quit Stranger. That was slavery and we were oblivious to it. Now I get to spend a whole Thanksgiving with my family and won't be sneaking off to lip while they enjoy the company.

Exactly King! I never really was sneaking around to lip during the holidays... mine oddity was a bit different, I just wanted to get the fuck home or get people the F out of our house during holidays so I could crawl into my pathetic little corner, alone, and use.
essentially its the same thing: sneaking around to chew or being a dick so we could go home early so I could chew None of that nonsense for me this year.
Nic free thanksgiving for me, first one since the late 1980's!
Hope you all enjoy it like I will! Qut on Bitches!

Day 92 is wrapping up. I wish everyone in my December 2015 group would post roll everyday. I really wish they would and I do try to get everyone on roll each and every day. Roll keeps me honest. Even after 92 days I know that I can fail and that I am only one mistake away from disaster. Someone in March 2016 posted a Day 1 today after 4 years of being quit. I am not arrogant enough to think that my quit is really stable yet. I vow to be here tomorrow.

I feel the same in my group. Some still have to be reminded, I don't get it, doesn't compute.
You can only control yourself. THEY have to want it more than we want it FOR them.
Some of them will never "get it". Makes us frustrated and sad.
I am proud to quit with you today.

Why not post roll every damn day? All I can say if people don't there sitting there self up for disaster. We all know why we're here because we're addicts and creatures of habit, use the addiction to your advantage, become addicted to posting! Great job Stranger! Damn proud to be quit with you!

Thanks folks! Quitting with all of you is an honor. I know that I can't post for others - I just want people to care about this as much as I do. Maybe it is because I was a slave for so long that I really appreciate the freedom I have now. When I quit on Labor Day weekend I didn't know that this place existed. Tonight I can't imagine not being here again tomorrow.
Oh, and who besides me thought that the Eagles might beat the Patriots today? Miracles do happen. :D

You are doing great. Here is the great news... The only people who cave after HOF are the nimrods that stop posting every day. You are no nimrod. Will there be tough points ahead? Yes. Are they anything like what you've seen so far? No no no. There is a greatness ahead for you sir... A freedom. You are going to love the next chapter in this book.

be there for a brother. Quit with you today!!!!

You give more here than you take
I'm not sure that I do. Reading the roll calls and introduction threads is like taking a deep breath of quit everyday. This place pumps me up every morning. I give back because I want to contribute to someone else breathing in all of that quit.

Last double digit day.....
Tomorrow on day 100 I will crack open an IPA brewed by my quit twin JGlav. That bottle has been sitting in my fridge for a few days now. It has a sweet KTC logo on it too - it says "December Disciples ODAAT". I am going to put the empty bottle on my mantle after I consume it as a reminder that I need to keep up that ODAAT thing. I vow not to let my brothers down.
I am humbled by the support that I have received from joining this website. It has truly been life changing. Thanks to everyone who has taken time to help me here. B)B

Some people have that swagger and you know right away they are gonna do well here and I was right about you! Congratulations my friend and thanks for the support!
Nice going bro! Keep spreading that quit wisdom around like you do, it is infectious!

Nice work Stranger! Keep up the good quit!

You've earned it Dave. Keep doing what you're doing and taking it ODAAT. Proud as hell to put my name in support of yours every day.

Strngrdngr!!
Congrats on your 100 days!
Enjoy your HOF celebration and continue helping others. Many have benefitted from your help.
I'm proud to quit with you today.
Congrats Stranger!!!!!!You have become the a great leader in here and you are the model example of what a quitter should look like. Proud to quit with you brother.
Congratulations on the Hall! The quit does on.
What a fantastic day! Dude today you can walk around with your head held high like you are ten feet tall. Only the strongest and toughest can do what you have done. And you've done it the right way.

Thanks so much everyone for the support! It's strange how far away 100 days seems until you actually get there. Having all of you with me for the journey made it much easier.
At the moment I'm enjoying a wonderful IPA that JGlav sent me. Thanks my brother! B)B
I can't wait to post roll again tomorrow!

I will be posting my Day 140 tomorrow. I'm not really sure where all the time went since I started my quit back on Labor Day weekend. Back then the days went by in slow motion and it seemed like the fog was going to last forever. This site was my daily life preserver.
Things are quite different now. The fog is all but gone and I had a clean dental appointment a few days ago. They didn't even give me shit about my receding gums this time. :D
What I didn't expect was the life changes. I find myself actually looking for new challenges at work when before I would have just skated by. I actually listen to my friends and family when we talk and I'm interested in what they have to tell me. It's made me think that the fog that has lifted was more than just the fog of my physical nicotine addiction - if that makes sense.
I'm really thankful for the connections that I have made here. It makes a huge difference knowing that there are folks who care about you, even if they are complete strangers. This place works and only a fool would throw away something that works. I was a fool before I got here; I'm not going to be a fool again.
I've said it before and I always mean it. I can't wait to post roll tomorrow. :)

Great post Stranger. I experienced the same positive changes at various points in my quit which was completely unexpected. It is amazing how much better our lives can be without nicotine! Like you, I consider posting roll a privilege, and KTC a blessing. And protecting my quit one of the most important things in my life.

Honored to post in this thread with 2 very bad bad asses.
It keeps getting better too. What seemed so hopeless... Seems so obvious... Once you buy into Ktc and the plan here. Great post stranger.

Day 160 for me - obviously I am cured... - um, NOT! :D
I think some here get to a point where they believe they are cured and that posting roll on a website is just a silly waste of time or worse - a reminder to somehow start using nicotine again. DANGER - that is the addict mind trying to talk you out of your commitment.
I try to read this thread from start to finish every now and then just to prevent that mindset. I went through hell to get to day 160. I am not going to go through that hell again. Hold me accountable KTC! I can't wait to post roll here in the morning! :)

Day 189. And I haven't posted on my intro thread in a few months.
Thanks for the birthday wishes everyone! Much love to you all for that! :)
I really appreciate all of the support that I have gotten for my quit from this site. That includes all of the support that I get here every morning on my cell phone. :)
Posting roll every day keeps me quit, so I will keep posting roll. It is simple! Stay quit and post roll every day. The formula is here for us all. Just do it!

What I didn't expect was the life changes. I find myself actually looking for new challenges at work when before I would have just skated by. I actually listen to my friends and family when we talk and I'm interested in what they have to tell me. It's made me think that the fog that has lifted was more than just the fog of my physical nicotine addiction - if that makes sense.
This is why I'm here. Thank you sir.

Still all thumbs with this sight. I have no idea. Never used a forum before this. Computer tech, no problem. Fish a bullet from my butt. Sure, why not. Post on a forum. Might as well give me all thumbs. Anyways. Happy 200 days!

You can quit! If I can you can. I am a nicotine addict and I vow to not use nicotine today and to be here tomorrow to make my promise again.
I am done being a slave to a plant in a can! I am done paying for my own death!
I quit with you today! B)B

I'm really here by accident. I quit before I found this web site, but finding this web site is definitely the reason why I posted a day 200 the other day. Quitting by myself never worked.
For the new folks - yes there will be noise and drama but at the end of the day all that matters is that you stayed quit TODAY. Tomorrow will sort itself out tomorrow. I quit with you all today and I can't wait to wake up and post again tomorrow! :)

Day 24 is coming to a close. Today was off and on fog pretty much all day long. I was hoping to get more work done at my job today but I really had trouble focusing. That Eagles victory I was at yesterday probably contributed to that. LOL
I've been reading some of the quit group threads that are ahead of my group to try to get an idea of what to expect down the road. At 24 days you'd think that most of the water is already under the bridge but apparently I still have some rough days ahead of me. I shouldn't be too surprised as I know I've quit in the past by myself for lengthy periods of time and I always ended up right back using nicotine again. I've concluded that quitting alone sucks. Maybe some people can do this but I think I need folks to lean on.
There was a pretty intense argument the other day about posting roll and the policing of roll in the November 15 thread. At issue was a member missing roll by accident and how zealous folks were about calling him out on it. I can see both sides of this. No one wants to be a jerk but you are a jerk if you don't speak up while someone caves.
I think this is where having digits and other folks having your digits comes into play. If I have the digits, when I see that someone in my group is not on roll late in the day I send them a text, just a quick "how are you doing, you aren't on roll" message. I've had a 100% success rate with this so far. I want this to work the other way around too. If I'm not on roll I'd hope my phone starts buzzing as the day moves along. I think that is the way it should work. Yeah might be a little scary giving out your phone number to a stranger but it might also save your life someday. It also might save that stranger's life. :D
Day 248 - I thought I would shamelessly quote myself from day 24 as this one was pure gold. ;)
At day 248 sometimes it feels like we are asking "who's still here?". This is why we all need to build a web of support - all of the people in my web are still here. We may not chat every day but we do touch base every now and then. The path to success is to quit with as many people who will check on you as possible. Help someone else stay quit and it will help you stay quit. If someone in your web goes missing tap their thread and see where they are - and if they want to tap out make a few new threads. Protect your quit.
I can't wait to post roll tomorrow. :)

Exactly right stranger! It takes just a minute to make your daily promise. Literally a few seconds. It also takes a few seconds to stop at the local 7-11. He decisions we make seal our fate.

Day 24 is coming to a close. Today was off and on fog pretty much all day long. I was hoping to get more work done at my job today but I really had trouble focusing. That Eagles victory I was at yesterday probably contributed to that. LOL
I've been reading some of the quit group threads that are ahead of my group to try to get an idea of what to expect down the road. At 24 days you'd think that most of the water is already under the bridge but apparently I still have some rough days ahead of me. I shouldn't be too surprised as I know I've quit in the past by myself for lengthy periods of time and I always ended up right back using nicotine again. I've concluded that quitting alone sucks. Maybe some people can do this but I think I need folks to lean on.
There was a pretty intense argument the other day about posting roll and the policing of roll in the November 15 thread. At issue was a member missing roll by accident and how zealous folks were about calling him out on it. I can see both sides of this. No one wants to be a jerk but you are a jerk if you don't speak up while someone caves.
I think this is where having digits and other folks having your digits comes into play. If I have the digits, when I see that someone in my group is not on roll late in the day I send them a text, just a quick "how are you doing, you aren't on roll" message. I've had a 100% success rate with this so far. I want this to work the other way around too. If I'm not on roll I'd hope my phone starts buzzing as the day moves along. I think that is the way it should work. Yeah might be a little scary giving out your phone number to a stranger but it might also save your life someday. It also might save that stranger's life. :D
Day 248 - I thought I would shamelessly quote myself from day 24 as this one was pure gold. ;)
At day 248 sometimes it feels like we are asking "who's still here?". This is why we all need to build a web of support - all of the people in my web are still here. We may not chat every day but we do touch base every now and then. The path to success is to quit with as many people who will check on you as possible. Help someone else stay quit and it will help you stay quit. If someone in your web goes missing tap their thread and see where they are - and if they want to tap out make a few new threads. Protect your quit.
I can't wait to post roll tomorrow. :)
Exactly right stranger! It takes just a minute to make your daily promise. Literally a few seconds. It also takes a few seconds to stop at the local 7-11. He decisions we make seal our fate.
Stranger , I have watched you grow in ktc, you my friend are a badass quitter and very helpful and say the right things at the right time! Damn proud to be quit with you!
You are wise beyond all 50 of those years Stranger. Every new quitter would give themselves a pretty good jump start by reading this intro start to finish. You are a bedrock of this place, and you have shown many a new quitter (including those approximately 2 months ahead of you) how to get this done. Hats off to you Stranger.

So two nights ago I had a dip dream. In the dream I willingly put tobacco in my lip and then wondered how on earth I would explain myself here the next day. I woke up and knew right away that I never caved but it still rattled me. My brain is still wired for nicotine even after 300 days. I think actively quitting is the only way to succeed. I'm so glad that I have so many friends here to keep me accountable. I quit with you all today and I can't wait to post roll again tomorrow! :)

My day 10 of NO TOBACCO is about to begin. I've been watching NFL games all day long in a fog. I am healing and I am starting to feel it I think. I've survived 2 weekends. This is really awesome.
We can all do this. If I can you can. Throw out that can...
Quoted for the noobs here. Do whatever you need to do to stay quit. I was a mess at day 10 and I was just trying to figure out how to make it to day 11. If you are new to quitting know that you can certainly do it. I quit even though nicotine controlled my life for way too many years. Push through those tough days. Make connections here so that you aren't pushing though those days by yourself. Even if you read this post 10 years after I've posted it - quitting takes the same effort.
I quit with you all today! :)

It does get better from here. See you tomorrow my friend.

Mike nailed it - congrats on posting up another +1. And more importantly, thank you for being a 100% roll poster...which, to me, is the most badass thing you can do. No matter your number of days quit - if you post roll every day like your life depends on it, then you my friend are one BAMF quitter.

There are 9 other BAQs in my quit group who are 100% on roll. :)
I do feel like my life depends on getting here every day. The promise means another day of freedom. If I don't promise God knows what I will do. The dip dreams that I have every now and them suggest that my brain would be happy to start chewing again.
I will fight off those demons and be back tomorrow.

Hang in there brother, we all struggle from time to time! I try to beat the nic bitch every morning before she gets started. I get my phone and start posting roll because if my names on there I will not let my brothers are myself down and you my friend I know I can count on to do the same! Quit ODAAT! That's what we do

I'm 25 days from one year of freedom. I really don't know if I have been this far before. I don't think I really care about my number as long as I get here every day to quit. I got back into Group Me tonight to hang with my quit brothers. :)
If I can do it you can do it. If you are new to quitting and reading this just remember that we all had a day one. We all had to fight through it. Sometimes by the minute or second. Quitting is worth it. :)

A word about quit meets. If you ever get the opportunity to meet another quitter from this web site in person DO IT!
This weekend I attended the 9th annual Pennsylvania get together and it was an awesome event. I met quitters from all walks of life, younger than me and older than me and a wide range of quit days. Linking an actual face and voice to an avatar makes a big difference. We are all real humans here, beating the same addiction EDD. Meeting someone else in person will strengthen your quit big time!
Much thanks to my friend Boelker62 and his wife Erin for hosting the event this year! :)

I had hoped to attend but work and life got in the way. And seeing some videos on the Facebook site made me all the more disappointed for missing it. Anyhow, you're absolutely right Stranger. I've found that personal meet ups elevate and reinvigorate my quit like nothing else. It makes it so personal and real. Like the guy who responded before me - after meeting him in person...f'get about it. Quit bliss. I can only imagine how it felt being with 30+ quitters at one time. Hope to see you there next year.

I've got two more solo quit meets that I am scheduling after this last one. When I joined this site the last thing I thought is that I would be meeting other members. When I joined I really didn't think that I was even going to share my digits. Someone else sent me digits first. Something clicked and told me that I needed to respond. Man, doing that really saved me. I had a vet member here actually calling me on the phone early on. Then I helped another who was having a bad day with a simple phone call. It got real for me quickly.
My best advice for quitting here is to step out of your quit group and also step out of your comfort zone. You can simply post a number every day but if you aren't interacting with the community you are missing a lot. There are so many folks here who can help you stay quit and if you are struggling they just need to know.
I quit with you all today and I can't wait to post roll tomorrow! :)

Well said Stranger! I stayed in my little quit group for too long. I didn't recognize what I was missing out on by not getting to know as many folks put there as I could. Glad that I share a group with a BAQ like you!!! See ya on roll tomorrow

Awesome dude, just awesome!
You are doing this the right way.
I had hoped to attend but work and life got in the way. And seeing some videos on the Facebook site made me all the more disappointed for missing it. Anyhow, you're absolutely right Stranger. I've found that personal meet ups elevate and reinvigorate my quit like nothing else. It makes it so personal and real. Like the guy who responded before me - after meeting him in person...f'get about it. Quit bliss. I can only imagine how it felt being with 30+ quitters at one time. Hope to see you there next year.
It was great to be able to see the video and be able to put your face to the name brother! Glad you were able to go and glad to hear it made your quit that much stronger. Maybe one of these days I'll get to attend.
Proud to be quit with ya
I've got two more solo quit meets that I am scheduling after this last one. When I joined this site the last thing I thought is that I would be meeting other members. When I joined I really didn't think that I was even going to share my digits. Someone else sent me digits first. Something clicked and told me that I needed to respond. Man, doing that really saved me. I had a vet member here actually calling me on the phone early on. Then I helped another who was having a bad day with a simple phone call. It got real for me quickly.
My best advice for quitting here is to step out of your quit group and also step out of your comfort zone. You can simply post a number every day but if you aren't interacting with the community you are missing a lot. There are so many folks here who can help you stay quit and if you are struggling they just need to know.
I quit with you all today and I can't wait to post roll tomorrow! :)
Well said Stranger! I stayed in my little quit group for too long. I didn't recognize what I was missing out on by not getting to know as many folks put there as I could. Glad that I share a group with a BAQ like you!!! See ya on roll tomorrow
Theres several quitters I would like to meet and you are definitely one!

Thanks everyone! I did have that beer (ok I actually had a few...). I spent a lot of time reflecting on my quit today and I realized that Labor Day is now my favorite holiday. I wish they would rename it Freedom Day! :)
When I got to this site on my day 6, I was just determined to get to day 7. It turned out that focusing on getting to the next day was the correct attitude. It helped a lot that I was just so sick and tired of putting that poison in my mouth. I really was ready to quit when I got here. The fog and mind games were brutal, but this site helped me so much during that time that I dove in and tried to give back. Man, giving back has helped my quit tenfold! I really look forward to posting every morning, even on those days when I don't feel like getting out of bed. ;)
I quit with you all today and I can't wait to post roll in the morning!

My official 1 year anniversary starts today on September 5th. :)
I told someone in a PM a month or so ago that I plan to stay until I think I don't need to stay anymore. That was addict speak. I need to promise every day and keep my promise. I need to forget about tomorrow and worry about today!
I quit with you all today! Thanks for all of the support! :)

So on the Friday of the big 9th annual PA quit meet, the C-Store closest to my home shut down. God knows how many cans of death and packs of death I bought there over the years. I was hanging out with a buddy the other day and he told me that an optometrist (eye doctor) is moving into that building. So the location where I was blinded by nicotine is going to help people see. Pretty cool! B)B

I'm dusting my quit thread off... :)
Holiday season goes into full swing soon. I remember that last year I was closing in on and passing my HOF day, December 13th, and my anniversary is now less than a month away. I am grateful to be free of nicotine for this long - longer than I ever really imagined when I quit on September 5th 2015 and didn't know that this web site existed.
Thanks to everyone who checks roll for the missing. Thanks to everyone who takes the time to respond to introduction threads. Thanks to everyone who shares digits and uses them. Thanks to everyone who dares to meet another quitter in person.
I'm really glad that I found this place when my mouth went numb... B)B

You definitely are a brand new person with a whole different outlook on life and I'm damn proud to be on this journey with you! Keep helping everyone along the way because you my friend are definitely doing everything right! Thanks
How 'bout it brother. It seems like ages ago with our struggle now we just kick ass every day. It's awesome.
and... another big milestone straight ahead!
1/2 Comma in a month and a half! Nice work dude, honored to quit with you!

Lots of wisdom in that abbreviation. I have never missed a day on roll. I never want to forget that I am a nicotine addict. I vow to be on roll tomorrow. B)B

Man if that don't take the cake right three stranger !! Perfect
I missed 2 out of the first 5 days , then go my ass handed to me by a vet. And been solid since
Worst part is I'll never be able to get those 2 missed days back.

Day 469. There is a big rib eye steak sitting on the shelf right where I used to put my can of poison. My entire quit group has checked in for 20 days in a row. It's December and my life hasn't been better in years.
This place works as long as we listen and act.
I'm proud to be quit today. Stranger999 - day 469.

yup, you ain't seen nothin' yet, but I think you get what work is saying. Look back at day 200 - the quit life is at least twice as good now as it was then. Guaranteed it just keeps magnifying. Freedom rules!

I've almost completed a full calendar year. 2016 will be my first nicotine free calendar year since the seventies. I couldn't have done it without help. Thanks to all of you who helped me stay on this path! :)
I can't wait to post roll tomorrow!

complacency
noun | com·pla·cen·cy |\kəm-ˈplâ-sən(t)-sç\
Definition of complacency
1:
self-satisfaction especially when accompanied by unawareness of actual dangers or deficiencies "When it comes to safety, complacency can be dangerous"
2:
an instance of usually unaware or uninformed self-satisfaction
I'm placing this here as a reference. We can always make our quits stronger - I did so today by helping a few brothers get on roll. I vow not to lose sight of ODAAT.

Thanks all, I seem to be doing a little better tonight. The headache isn't as bad right now and I can feel my tongue again at the moment. Mentally I still feel foggy, but I am hoping that lifts as I bet I will be better at my job than I have been in ages once I finish withdrawal from nicotine. I know that the long haul will be tough but I am determined to beat this crap!
Stranger I've been reading through your messed up introduction posts from 500 DAYS ago. Thought you'd enjoy a flashback to remind you of just how sweet winning really is. Congratulations on a big achievement today! I know this sounds crazy, but this freedom really doeskeepgetting better.

Day 518. I can't wait to post roll tomorrow. :)
I keep seeing this commercial for a vaping system. At the bottom of the screen it says "contains nicotine which is addictive" - well duh! It should say that life can be perfectly lived without nicotine at all so there is no need to ever buy this thing. I hope the government taxes the crap out of anyone who vapes nicotine.

I love reading my quit thread. It's like a who's who of bad ass quitters in here offering advice and support. Thank you all! I stumbled into accountability but I don't think I will ever trip again. ;)
I still have dip/smoking dreams every now and then. It is annoying that my brain wants to make me think that I've caved when I was only sleeping. Somehow I still wake up every day and remember roll and KTC. It makes me wonder about people who stopped posting here. Do they have caving dreams that lead them to a real cave? I'm not going to find out. I'm going to post roll tomorrow. :)

aint that the truth. I guess for me what it comes down to is this: i just dont trust my addict self..I've see that person fail before..
Without some sort of accountability, my addict self will take over

Thanks guys! I'm feeling really good about this quit. I think I might be able to free myself from this curse this time. I'm still a little foggy but I have no desire to run out for another tin right how. Baby steps....
Stranger welcome, this site works but you gotta be willing to do your part. Post roll get help from all these badass quitters, I can tell you going at this alone sucks Monkey balls. We're all waiting on you! I quit with you today my friend!
Putting your name on a list sounds pretty lame. Right? I remember thinking the same thing. Dude it works. Join us.
You will never regret quitting. Have you EVER heard anyone say... God I wish I still smoked/dipped?
Putting my name on a list probably did seem really lame to me on day 6. Somewhere on my way to 100 times day 6 it's just become something that I do, every damn day.
Thanks to everyone who supports me! I've done the math and ODAAT + KTC = Success. B)B

Stranger welcome, this site works but you gotta be willing to do your part. Post roll get help from all these badass quitters, I can tell you going at this alone sucks Monkey balls. We're all waiting on you! I quit with you today my friend!
Putting your name on a list sounds pretty lame. Right? I remember thinking the same thing. Dude it works. Join us.
You will never regret quitting. Have you EVER heard anyone say... God I wish I still smoked/dipped?
Putting my name on a list probably did seem really lame to me on day 6. Somewhere on my way to 100 times day 6 it's just become something that I do, every damn day.
Thanks to everyone who supports me! I've done the math and ODAAT + KTC = Success. B)B
This is awesome.

So here I am in the late 600 days of my quit. I've been having a few dip dreams lately. A week or so ago it wasn't a cave dream but a dream about having a can in my pocket. I shrugged that one off easy. Last night the dream was about a dip in my mouth and this one was disturbing. I've learned on this site that the addict brain lies to us all of the time. I double checked the house today to make sure that I didn't actually cave - it was just a dream.
I can't wait to post roll again tomorrow. B)B

It seems like these dreams pop up around milestones. Trust me when I say that they get further and further apart. 700 days ago you were a mess. Today you are a winner.
I am honored to quit with you.

I used to think dip dreams came from the addict in me trying to use my dreams to get me to cave... But I realize that dip dreams are from the quitter in me trying to show me the shame and disappointment if I caved.

Soooooo weird Dave, I had the most vivid dip dream a week or so ago. I could have sworn I dipped. My 18 year old son was like, 'Aw Dad Really??, you;ve come so far.."
Then i woke up in cold sweat and nearly in tears for disappointing him and thinking about how I was going to go crawling back to all my fellow quitters on here
Weird also that I haven't had any urges or cravings for as long as I can remember. Dip doesn't even cross my mind..... Im gonna chalk it up to exactly what Daragner said and move on, and try not to read too much into it. Proud to be quitting with all 3 of you guys!

I mentioned this to some folks at the PA quit meet a few days ago so I I'll add it here too in case it will help other quitters.
I used to have random nightmares about college. Usually they were about having some final exam to take and realizing that I never attended the class and also did not know where on campus I needed to be to take the final exam. I always woke up confused and feeling like I flunked out.
I don't seem to have the college nightmares anymore, but now I have a lot of caving dreams instead. I think my brain just needs to have nightmares and now the worst nightmare I can ever have is posting a DAY ONE. :P
Two years ago I was in a seemingly hopeless brutal fog. I won that fight with all of the support here and I'm not going to let a few bad dreams take me back to that place ever again. I quit with you all today and I can't wait to post roll tomorrow.

This is a great post Dave.
Even at 2 years... It gets better from here. The dreams will become fewer and fewer. The intensity will fade. But the winning will feel better and the freedom will be "freer"... Easier and more normalized. One foot in front of the bother bro... I quit with you today.

Great post Dave, thanks for your support to all the quitters on here.
I had a cave dream myself recently and was wondering WTF was wrong, because I rarely if at all even think about dip anymore.
Nice to know I wasnt alone.
Weird thing is I think my cave dream was just a reminder for me not to get too comfortable, cocky, relaxed, and content. And also a reminder for me to stay vigilant, aware, watchful and get back to KTC as often as I can.
Congrats on your 2 years bud, you're an awesome quitter

All I can say is that the support here is overwhelming when you are winning. Thank you all! :)
This place is about so much more than remembering to post a number. If this place and your quit become important enough, you will wake up every day and remember that you are an addict and you will take the steps to renew your commitment to quit. If you really buy in it is a community that you want to connect with again early and often. You will want to meet people here in person.
The journey of freedom continues forward and I can't wait to post roll again tomorrow. B)B

Ill post and quit with you today strngrdngr
I'm proud to post with you EDD!
Dave, this place works so well if we let it. IÂ’m sorry some people let you down bro. I cannot imagine how disappointed they must feel about their failure.
IÂ’m gonna post roll now and keep my word. And I know you will as well.
Im with you today Big D.

1,000 days. On day 6 it seemed impossible. But as you find your footing and learn how to quit one day at a time the big numbers get smaller. You learn how to win. You learn to take it one day at a time without looking at those big numbers. Those big numbers arrive on their own. Your quit must arrive every day.
Thanks to all of you who post with me at KTC. Thanks to those who text me. Thanks to those who I've talked to on the phone and met in person at quit meets. I stumbled into this awesome community and I don't think I would have been quit this long if I hadn't.
I can't wait to post roll again tomorrow. :)

Thank you to all in my support chain for keeping me honest! There are some great quit groups here but December 15 will always be special - I'm proud to quit with my fellow Disciples every damn day! :)

Today is 4 years after I reached my HOF day. Waking up each morning and posting roll here has kept my quit going the entire time. I'm very thankful for this website and the awesome quit group that I stumbled into back in 2015. I've learned that if you really want to quit, it has to be an every day thing. You have to actively quit and always remember that nicotine in any form will put you back to day 1. No way, not ever again!
I can't wait to post roll again tomorrow. :)

Day 1777. It's been a rough week. On Monday my father went into the ICU after a surgery to open an artery caused him to have a stroke. Under the hospital's Covid-19 rules he can only have 1 visitor a day. My first day to see him is tomorrow. He's got all kinds of tubes in him and I'm very apprehensive about seeing him in that state.
Why am I sharing this? Well, my dad is 91 years old and has been smoking cigarettes for at least 75 years. This week is probably the first time he hasn't smoked since the 1940's. While my family is amazed that he has lived this long, he has dealt with a lot of health problems due to smoking and he did not quit. Even in the ICU they have a nicotine patch on him right now. I'm not sure how his nicotine management is going to work during his rehab. It's the last thing you'd think you'd need to worry about, but I remember what I went through during the suck phase of my quit. I know it is going to be very tough on him when he doesn't get enough nicotine.
I guess I just want to say don't ever give up. If you have earned your freedom from nicotine do everything in your power to keep it. Going through withdrawal late in life isn't worth it. I quit with you all today and I can't wait to post roll tomorrow.

Thank you both for the prayers. My dad was moved out of the ICU today and I got to visit him. He still has a long way to go to recover from this but we are taking it one day at a time.
I quit with you today!

Dave, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Nicotine is truly a wicked beast - he's lucky to have a son like you that not only is a great son, but knows the chains that are limiting him.

Thanks to all for the thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. I really appreciate it! This site is awesome and I'm blessed to have so many friends that I have never met. :)
My dad passed away early in the morning yesterday. I'm not sure how much his smoking cut his life short. Heck, he lived to be 91. But I do know his health was not good in the final years and he got pneumonia very quickly when he was in the ICU last week. His lungs were obviously compromised.
I made my own choice to quit all forms of nicotine almost five years ago. I'm going to mourn the loss of my dad today and I am going to put my name on roll tomorrow.

Day 1,854... Quit... Period... but still always ODAAT. 8)
Thank you all! Losing my dad was tough but having all of the support here really helped!
I re-read my entire introduction thread again tonight and the support I've received these last 5 years is truly amazing. This site rocks! It also reminded me that while there are many stages of quit the most important part of quitting is being sure to show up and actually quit every day.
Whether you are in or out of the fog we are all still addicts. We need to show up and quit every day. I can't wait to post roll tomorrow! :)

My family interred my dad on Saturday at our childhood church. The pandemic messed things up so much that it was weird taking care of this almost a full year later.
One day at a time really works. Regardless of what life throws your way you can always choose to quit for the next 24 hours. I quit with you today! 8)

Day 2,517 and the system is warning me that there have been no posts on my introduction thread in 120 days - perhaps I should start a new topic? 'no'
Freedom is sweet and quitting one day at a time with other quitters now has me only a few weeks away from 7 years quit. Making connections with others here will help you stay quit. 8)

Day 2,645. I saw a quitter on Discord who was unsure about posting roll every day. Somehow posting roll was going to create anxiety. I disagree - I feel like the anxiety disappears as soon as I post roll. Nicotine is off the table from that moment until bedtime. Plus, others who see my roll post and may choose to make the same promise with me that day. I can't wait to post roll tomorrow. 8)

Totally agree @Stranger999 (https://ktcforum.org/index.php?action=profile;u=51). It seems some quitters/stoppers don’t fully understand the importance or meaning of posting roll. Does everyone view it the same as if I can to your house, knocked on your door, and told you I will not use nicotine? I’m not sure. To your point, after posting, I just have to keep my word for the day. Not that hard as I just did it the prior day. I’ll be here with you tomorrow brother.

8 years quit is only a few days away. I'm sure that I didn't expect to still be here when I showed up on my day 10. There are lots of folks to thank for inspiration yet at the end of the day I had to be the one to quit. One day at a time. Every damn day. Look forward to repeating tomorrow. 8)
