IÂ’m at day 77! While I try to be proud of the count, IÂ’m reminded of why my number is only 77. About 10 years ago I was roughly at the 6 year mark, nicotine free. Yes, 6 fÂ’n years without failing! I started bumming a dip from friends while golfing and chewing on a cigar at parties. I let my guard down and my addiction started working on my behaviors.
I convinced myself that I could buy a tin and leave it around, just take a dip once-in-awhile when the feeling struck. Then instead of having a new tin once a month it grew into a tin-a-day addiction. I was horribly embarrassed that I caved. My wife was pissed and I let myself down.
As most of you have posted, IÂ’ve tried quitting many times. I would make it through the suck and speed on down the road only to stop at the gas station to start the cycle again.
But this time it is different. Why? IÂ’ve got this site and bunch of people that will assist me in keeping my daily promise. I now have a group that will keep bringing the addiction mind games to the forefront for me to see. For that I am thankful and proud.
So, will I make it past the 6 year mark again? I donÂ’t know. All I can promise is that today I will not cave.

Kenny at day 77 you don't need the usual help we give to new guys here. You've made it through the toughest days of quitting. But if I could give you a different piece of advice. Help out as many new quitters who come to this site as you can. Not only can it be a huge help for struggling quitters, but helping others will add to your own accountability.

I'll second that sound advice my friend Dagranger gave you. There's a lot many of us can learn from a person like yourself. 6 years quit is a long time. In these parts thats a 2,190 day legend and what your story tells us, is that no matter your number, we're all one day and one huge-ass mistake away from day 1. No matter how long one has been quit, we all need to guard it with our lives, because as addicts, this truly is a battle between life and death.
I'm glad you're here buddy and I hope to see you here for a long time.

Day 83: Last night my wife and I were talking while she was calculating our monthly budget. She mentions that our gas/auto expenses for the past two months have dropped ~$150/month. I said, while gas prices have dropped I haven't needed "gas" every-other-day. Then it clicked with her. I think she was surprised at how much I was spending on the crap.
Thinking about this made me realize how fucked up the addiction messes with your thought process. I know that I balked at paying a higher life insurance premium for tobacco users and delayed in purchasing the additional insurance. I believe it was $100 more per month.
Now I was happily stuffing $150 per month in my mouth and increasing my chances of dying sooner (and needing the life insurance for my wife and kid) but thought paying $100 more per month to protect my family was too much! Fuck.
I will keep this quit. I will make sure my family is protected. Any money left over will be spent on beer.

Thanks for that nugget of reality sir! It's amazing how much this addiction alters ones perception. You also got me thinking it may be time to purchase that additional insurance for myself... Proud to be quit with you!

Day 90:
I'm more in control now. The instant rage is gone. I'm back to laughing off the little shit and enjoying my time with those who love me. Concentration at work is getting better.
One of the biggest reliefs is being totally honest to my wife. After I threw away 6 years of being dip free, I ninja dipped. She knew what was going on and I just didn't do it around her. It would have been so much easier if she would have yelled, but she was truly disappointed. That just crushed me whenever the topic came up. No yelling, just " I wished you would quit."
10 years of sneaking around wears on you. Keeping your cans hidden. Gutting it so you don't leave a spit bottle around. Making up an excuse why you insist on washing the bathroom curtains (because you were dip shitting and sneezed!). God, I'm tired just thinking about the crap I had to keep track of.
Thanks everyone for your help. It's not easy, but it's so much better than being tied to the can.

I totally forgot about the bathroom curtain thing until I was writing it. Dip fucking stains white curtains if you don't wash it quickly.

Love this post. In your short time here Kenny you are stepping up and laying down some quit gospel. Few of us know of the 6-year quit only to cave experience and your posts are eye-opening to say the least. I'm a huge fan and want to see you keep running this back one day at a time. ODAAT, accountability, and brotherhood. THAT is what will be the difference for you this time. Proud of you man, keep it up.

Definitely helps me...I had forgotten (no, blocked out) some of the stupid ninja tricks--used to sneak a lipper in the shower, only to swallow the whole damn thing when my wife came in to keep from being busted....Like your wife, like all wives, they know. And when they get quiet about it, no more fights, no more scoldings, one thing you can be sure of. That disappointment is just a different form of cancer. Only this time, its them you are killing. With the kids, its even worse. They don't understand addiction. They only understand Daddy doesn't want to pay attention to me right now....
Everyone here inspires me to:
Be a man.
Face the truth.
Lean on your brothers.
Post Roll.
Just quit.

Nice KennyZ! Shit, you and this ^^^ bad-ass are 100 days apart. That bonds you guys for life in a hetero, slap-on-the-back-and-not-on-the-ass type of way.

Day 100: Milestone: an important life or developmental event.
I'm proud that I've made it; 100 days, 100 days ago, seemed like a lifetime. Now I'm more determined to make this the last time I hit this number. Only higher numbers from here on out. I've got a lot of road to make up for, one day at a time.
Thank you everyone for the support and accountability. Stay strong!

The Feb board is finally quite and I don't want to stir up that space for the group. So I'm sitting down to write out my thoughts with a very stiff drink.
SandPike was an SOB to me when I first posted on the board. I think my first post was a day 76 or 77 (I was posting on the blog side since around day 30 or so). He was after me like white on rice. Didn't know who the fuck I was and how dare I come into Feb that late into the game. Once he checked out my story, he apologized and welcomed me in like I was a day 1 quitter.
He PM'd me his number and helped me post roll. Also, he told me we had a great bunch of quitters in Feb. Now I know I don't have the posting longevity as some and SandPike may have rubbed people the wrong way, but to me he is a friend and he cared about my quit. He's not the only one, but he was in the group.
Now hearing other quitters that are not in our month, and a small few that are, trash him really pisses me off. Could he have dealt it better? Sure. Was he the only one acting out? No. Do we all need to be friends? No; but we should have respect for the struggles that we are dealing with.
I am not 100% sure why SandPike was set off and I'm sad to see him go.
After thinking about what happened and why would I be upset I started to get mad at myself. I've come to terms that if I'd ever ran into the past me, i'd fucking punch myself right into the face! I have used every fucking demeaning stereotype slang you can think of. I thought it was all in good fun and the people that got upset about it were sensitive pussies.
I was totally fucking wrong! Once I got outside my fucking cocoon, I realized that the constant barrage of demeaning shit that we spew actually is harmful. Would you tell your kid they are a fag, pussy, cunt, bitch, whore, dike or homo? How about any of your love ones? What if someone said that to your kid? Would you sit there and laugh right in front of them?
When I joined KTC I chose to ignore the BS locker talk and focus on my quit. As an lying fucking addict, I can easily justify almost any behavior. As my quit grew stronger and I've dealt with my past lies to my love ones; I feel I can't simply stand by and let shit slide anymore. You see, if we don't say shit about the stupid fucking homo, gay, and faggot shit, then we are condoning it. If my kid ever has the chance to read my thread when I'm gone, I hope she is proud of me and not embarrassed that I didn't stand up for what I thought was right. Why don't the rest of you fucking addicts stop and think about your kids reading your posts? It is not as far fetch as one would think.
Now to another drink; drops mic....

He's not the only one, but he was in the group.
Now hearing other quitters that are not in our month, and a small few that are, trash him really pisses me off. Could he have dealt it better? Sure. Was he the only one acting out? No. Do we all need to be friends? No; but we should have respect for the struggles that we are dealing with.
I am not 100% sure why SandPike was set off and I'm sad to see him go.
After thinking about what happened and why would I be upset I started to get mad at myself. I've come to terms that if I'd ever ran into the past me, i'd fucking punch myself right into the face! I have used every fucking demeaning stereotype slang you can think of. I thought it was all in good fun and the people that got upset about it were sensitive pussies.
I was totally fucking wrong! Once I got outside my fucking cocoon, I realized that the constant barrage of demeaning shit that we spew actually is harmful. Would you tell your kid they are a fag, pussy, cunt, bitch, whore, dike or homo? How about any of your love ones? What if someone said that to your kid? Would you sit there and laugh right in front of them?
When I joined KTC I chose to ignore the BS locker talk and focus on my quit. As an lying fucking addict, I can easily justify almost any behavior. As my quit grew stronger and I've dealt with my past lies to my love ones; I feel I can't simply stand by and let shit slide anymore. You see, if we don't say shit about the stupid fucking homo, gay, and faggot shit, then we are condoning it. If my kid ever has the chance to read my thread when I'm gone, I hope she is proud of me and not embarrassed that I didn't stand up for what I thought was right. Why don't the rest of you fucking addicts stop and think about your kids reading your posts? It is not as far fetch as one would think.
Now to another drink; drops mic....
Hey little Kenny girl.... Your daddy is a stud, who had a problem with tobacco and quit it so he could spend more time with you and your future family.
He also helped alot of grown men with there problems as well.
I never met your dad... But he helped me quit today! I hope your are as proud of him as I am.
Your dad is an awesome man.
Rawls
Your Dad is a strong man that stood up to not only what
He thought was right but also the most powerful drug on the planet and he beat it one day at a time and helped many others along the way! I never met him myself but he was there helping me along the way for that I'm always in debted! Damn proud to be quit with you my friend!

The Feb board is finally quite and I don't want to stir up that space for the group. So I'm sitting down to write out my thoughts with a very stiff drink.
SandPike was an SOB to me when I first posted on the board. I think my first post was a day 76 or 77 (I was posting on the blog side since around day 30 or so). He was after me like white on rice. Didn't know who the fuck I was and how dare I come into Feb that late into the game. Once he checked out my story, he apologized and welcomed me in like I was a day 1 quitter.
He PM'd me his number and helped me post roll. Also, he told me we had a great bunch of quitters in Feb.

Agree, Kenny Z is as fine a quitter as I've met on this site. He is, however, the antithesis of SandPike.
SandPike was as much a cancer, in my opinion, to this site as some other legendary drama queens of the past (insert Jake Frawley joke). I've been here for a short while, and he ranks as one of the biggest douchebags I've had the misfortune of seeing disgrace these pages.
Kenny, you and I have been mutual supporters since your Day 1 here. So please take my comment simply for what it is, a difference in opinion, which comes from my completely different viewpoint. Though my opinion differs, I do respect yours.
-
Thanks to all for the nice words. I needed the cathartic release last night and I'm good to go today. I've read through the Feb pages and know he wasn't loved by all, but a quitter is a quitter.
I respect all of you and I'm fortunate to have you help me. Thanks.

Day 118: IÂ’m 18 days past HOF and this past week has been a series of stronger than expected craves. I know from past experience that the clouds do not part and angels start singing with you hit 100 days; but damn if I wasnÂ’t at least a little bit disappointed that didnÂ’t happen. For anyone reading my intro at the beginning of your quit, please donÂ’t expect to be cured after 100 days.
While everyone is different, the time after HOF is still an adjustment period. You are still doing things for the first time without nicotine. Triggers occur, but you are on more stable ground to push the cravings away. To me, the cravings are a welcomed reminder that IÂ’m still addicted and I canÂ’t have one.
I am still very thankful for all of the support I receive from the quit family here at KTC. Thank you for helping me quit.

We are never cured Kenny but it sure as he'll gets easier! After 474 days, when I get hit with a crave it just makes me laugh. Our boats are smoldering on the beach bro. I quit with you everyday my brother!

Day 137: Heading out on my first nicotine free vacation! Good god how i would secretly dread this day. "How many tins do I need? How many can I hide? Will the TSA make me take them out of my bag in front of my family? When can I get a dip in?"
No more! With your help I'm free! Thank you!

Day 156.
I'm committed to being more involved in my quit. I have spent too much time posting and ghosting in my lead up to 100.
I've reached out to my extremely awesome quit brothers in February and have built a coccon of accountability. Hopefully my quit brethren see this as a positive and not as an annoyance.
150 short days ago, if anyone offered up thier cell number to me I think I would have rolled my eyes and moved on. Now I see it as the life line. I wonder now that if I had the support back some 10 years ago I might still be clean 16 years instead of 156 days. That would be fucking legendary!
To the brothers that offered up thier support and provided numbers, thank you. I hope that when I offer up my number you accepted it as a promise that you'll look out for me and call me on my shit. When I trade digits I take it seriously. If you normally post at 10am, I'm going to text you at 11am and wonder WTF. I'm not going to send dick pictures or any other bs. I'm here to quit and if you want to stay quit I'll help in anyway I can.
Thank you KTC, February 2015, and all of the great supporters!

Day 185: Just passed the six month mark! While that feels awesome the nic beast has been nipping at my heels more lately. I think part of the reason it is chasing me has a part to do with my recent alcohol quit. I believe I've been "medicating" my brain with poison since I was 14 (between nicotine and alcohol). Since I removed the alcohol my body is readjusting again. The alcohol quit came about due to my addictive nature and I was compensating for the lost of nicotine. My usage was growing and I caught myself Ninja drinking. It's almost like I needed to have a dirty little secret in order keep going. I'm tired of being that guy.
Thanks again to My KTC supporters and the February 2015 bad ass Fog Fighters for helping me quit!

Pretty much the same for me Kenny. I started drinking more when I quit dipping. What the fuck? If its not one thing its another. I believe its just the addict in me. I really have to be careful with the booze. Plus it makes me fat (ter)!

Day 238
Just came back from a week long vacation with family. I had plenty of alone time working on projects around the house and cooking on the grill. One day I ran to the local convenience store to buy some propane. The line was long and the person behind the counter was struggling. Right then and there I was hit with a huge craving. I was staring at the big display of dip and thinking of my projects and how easy it would be to get a can and just dip for the vacation and stop on Monday. No one would know. It'd be easy.
I shook my head and told myself; "You cannot have one dip, you'll have another 10 year run with it if you start it today." Walked out of the store with just propane.
Fuck you dip. I've giving you more time and money than I ever should.

Day 251:
Tough fucking craves lately. Had to dip wet coffee grounds a few times like back in day 75. This shit keeps coming after me. But I'm determined not to let it catch me. Fuck you dip. Keep after me. I'm going to just think about chemo and tongue removal. You got nothing on that shit.
Stay strong and stay quit.

Day 289
I had a odd dip dream the other day. In it I was talking to my wife and she asked me if I'd ever go and have a dip again. I looked right at her and told her that I am no longer that guy and I can never dip, not even one.
That was a first. The FFF quit mojo must have been strong that day.

I pulled out the old coffee trick many times. Even at 200 plus. Whatever it takes man.

Day 328: During this weekend the family and I were heading to swimming lessons. We were taking the same route that I would take my daughter to daycare and summer camp for the past 7 years. As we were passing by “my gas station” my daughter pipes up from the back; “We haven’t gone to that gas station in a long time! Daddy and I used to stop there every day.” My wife turned to me and smiled. Damn that felt good.

Day 364:
Staying home with a sick kid today. A little over a year ago I would have secretly enjoyed the opportunity. While I would be concerned about the kid; I would internally jump up and down that I could feed my addiction uninterrupted all day. Sick fuck.
Flash forward a year later; I'm working on my laptop, listening to Kidsbop on Pandora, and taking care of my little princess.
Thanks to all for the support in helping me quit.

Hope she is feeling better soon.
For reflection and to help the new guys out... Would you take a minute to describe the pride you feel today given what tomorrow is on your calendar? When a new addict joins this great site it is hard to believe that it will get better. To believe that brighter days really are ahead. What does freedom feel / look like?

Funny thing is today is technically my 1 year. I intentionally omitted my first day for Veteran's Day. I needed perspective and realizing that there are so many people out there doing or did harder things kept me focused.
I was ninja dipper, but my wife knew I was chewing and she didn't like it one bit. So like most addicts, I would sneak. I had a whole fucking game that i played in my mind. Where I was getting away with something. Deep down I knew it was BS. My wife can smell a mouse fart from 1,000 yards and dumb ass me opening up a can at 10pm down stairs wasn't fooling her. Nor was opening the same can at 5am the next morning.
Today I am a different person. I've gone through the suck and other transition milestones (not Caitlyn Jennings type transition, but being a quitter). I think the hardest adjustment was giving up my "buddy". That fucking little round bastard was there with me for a lot of years. Looking back on it, that "buddy" caused more grief than it was worth.
Once you truly decide to quit and let it be it; you gain so much freedom. I no longer try to find ways to be alone or push off being with my family. I'm honest and seem to hold myself and others accountable now (I think I didn't before because I knew I was being a hypocrite). It wasn't easy, but nothing really worth it ever is. I believe that anyone can do it if they stick to it. Posting roll and building a web of accountability helps greatly.
Thank you to all who have supported me. My family also thanks you.

Once you truly decide to quit and let it be it; you gain so much freedom. I no longer try to find ways to be alone or push off being with my family. I'm honest and seem to hold myself and others accountable now (I think I didn't before because I knew I was being a hypocrite). It wasn't easy, but nothing really worth it ever is. I believe that anyone can do it if they stick to it. Posting roll and building a web of accountability helps greatly.
Thank you to all who have supported me. My family also thanks you.
In that case, happy one year brother! Very proud of you. It's a big milestone. CONGRATS! 'oh yeah'

Happy Anniversary Eve!
Hope she is feeling better soon.
For reflection and to help the new guys out... Would you take a minute to describe the pride you feel today given what tomorrow is on your calendar? When a new addict joins this great site it is hard to believe that it will get better. To believe that brighter days really are ahead. What does freedom feel / look like?
Funny thing is today is technically my 1 year. I intentionally omitted my first day for Veteran's Day. I needed perspective and realizing that there are so many people out there doing or did harder things kept me focused.
I was ninja dipper, but my wife knew I was chewing and she didn't like it one bit. So like most addicts, I would sneak. I had a whole fucking game that i played in my mind. Where I was getting away with something. Deep down I knew it was BS. My wife can smell a mouse fart from 1,000 yards and dumb ass me opening up a can at 10pm down stairs wasn't fooling her. Nor was opening the same can at 5am the next morning.

Day 364:
Staying home with a sick kid today. A little over a year ago I would have secretly enjoyed the opportunity. While I would be concerned about the kid; I would internally jump up and down that I could feed my addiction uninterrupted all day. Sick fuck.
Flash forward a year later; I'm working on my laptop, listening to Kidsbop on Pandora, and taking care of my little princess.
Thanks to all for the support in helping me quit.
ha ha. man now i see kenny in a aprin and flower hat with his littel girl (and marie antwonette and her littel sister) shoutin 'dont you get it?!? do you see the hat? i ... am mrs nesbitt (http://www.nerdlikeyou.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/buzz-lightyear-mrs.-nesbitt.jpg)!'

Day 449.
Getting ready for vacation and of course I'm getting sick. The sore throat and aches bring me back to dipping. I feel like I've only gone a few hours without it instead of 449 days. This is why I'm still posting daily. I make my promise and stick to one day at a time.
Thanks to all for helping me quit!

KennyZ - hey man I thought I would start making a better effort to revisit the intros... Sometimes I get so caught up in the daily grind I forget how good it is for all of us to revisit the intros... I was away on vacation when you busted through the 6th floor homie... I wanted to come in here and make sure I gave you big fat CONGRATS on your amazing accomplishment!! You are the glue of our group and I don't mean to place any pressure on you, but dang bro sometimes I wonder where we would be as a group without you... You have carried my ass countless times and for that I am extremely grateful!! You never ask for anything in return and are by far the most humble person in all of KTC... I stand ready and willing to carry you whenever you need it and I know you know that but I want to just say it... I'm really proud of you homeboy. You strengthen my quit. I quit with you bro!! Looking forward to the possibility of promising to stay quit with you tomorrow!
Hey, you, get off my cloud
You don't know me and you don't know my style
Who be gettin flam when they come to a jam?
Here I am here I am, the Method Man
Patty cake patty cake hey the method man
Don't eat Skippy, Jif or Peter Pan
Peanut butter, Cause I'm not butter
In fact I snap back like a rubber
band, I be Sam Sam I am
And I don't eat green eggs and ham
Style will hit ya, wham!, then goddamn
You be like oh shit that's the jam
Turn it up now hear me get buckwu-wu-wild
I'm about to blow light me up
Upside downside inside and outside
Hittin you from every angle there's no doubt
I am, the one and only Method Man
The master of the plan wrappin shit like Saran
Wrap, with some of this and some of that
Hold up (what?) I tawt I tat I putty tat
Over there, but I think he best to beware
Of the diggy dog shit right here
Yippy yippy yay yippy yah yippy yo
Like Deck said this ain't your average flow
Coming like rah ooh ah achie kah
Tell me how ya like it so far baby paw
The poetry's in motion coast to coast and
Rub it on your skin like lotion
What's the commotion, oh my lord
Another cord chopped by the Wu-Tang sword
Hey hey hey like Fat Albert
It's the Method Man ain't no if ands about it
It's the Method

Brother Kenny, I'm only 14 days on to the quit. Been grinding this horrible shit for 9 years. I think about how it's hard to leave the dip that took care of me through two combat deployments, sleepless nights and rotten days. You need to know that it's not GOOD. Seek what's good. Have you ever felt guilty in the drive thru? Or felt bad about skipping a work out? Your body and soul are telling you what's good and what's not good. Don't think about it. Just do it. We are all in this together. Quit is hard because it's worth it.

Lake update: Our cottage is drying out and now it's time to clean up the sandbags. We were very lucky that our flood was slow moving. Over the course of two months the water kept rising and I'd add another layer of sandbags and another pump. Now we're removing them and it is a pain in the ass! Wet, dirty, and moldy old sandbags are f'n heavy.
What I truly love is that I'm dealing with this shit sandwich without dip. I spent a ton of time alone, miles away from family without even thinking about getting a tin. While my addiction is still there I've come a long way towards the man I want to be and the man I want my family to know. Thank you KTC family for helping me quit.

Cheers to 3 years Kenny!!

Captain's log: 4/13/2018:
I find it funny on how much shit is throwing around recently. $6K plumbing problem, new business venture sucking cash, furnace breakdown, and then my little queen's (only child) cat eat's a fucking spool of thread. $3k to save its fucking life or $10k of therapy? Oh, my daughter left the thread out (major guilt). And we find out today the town's portion of the plumbing is shit (both figuratively and literally); it just collapsed. Shit is my theme this month. Either I'm cleaning it up or paying to get rid of it.
But the best news is; i'm not dipping. The money I've saved has help to offset the "setbacks". Life is good, even though its a struggle at times. I'm surrounding by people that love me and support me. Why give up now?
Thank you KTC family for helping me quit!

Day 1,921:
It’s been a long time since I visited my intro. I’m so proud of how far I’ve come and the crew that supports me. I’m at a point in my quit where I don’t think about dip unless I’m in here. And I’m thankful for that. Posting roll daily is the only time I’m allowed to think about it. It is off the table for the rest of the day once I’ve made my promise.
To the newer quitters, please reach out and make connections. Quitting is a hard thing to do and there aren’t any medals for doing it the hardest way. Lean on people when you need it and provide support when they need it. It’s a simple concept.

IÂ’m at day 77! While I try to be proud of the count, IÂ’m reminded of why my number is only 77. About 10 years ago I was roughly at the 6 year mark, nicotine free. Yes, 6 fÂ’n years without failing! I started bumming a dip from friends while golfing and chewing on a cigar at parties. I let my guard down and my addiction started working on my behaviors.
I convinced myself that I could buy a tin and leave it around, just take a dip once-in-awhile when the feeling struck. Then instead of having a new tin once a month it grew into a tin-a-day addiction. I was horribly embarrassed that I caved. My wife was pissed and I let myself down.
As most of you have posted, IÂ’ve tried quitting many times. I would make it through the suck and speed on down the road only to stop at the gas station to start the cycle again.
But this time it is different. Why? IÂ’ve got this site and bunch of people that will assist me in keeping my daily promise. I now have a group that will keep bringing the addiction mind games to the forefront for me to see. For that I am thankful and proud.
So, will I make it past the 6 year mark again? I donÂ’t know. All I can promise is that today I will not cave.
The answer is yes. 6 years!

I don't think I ever "roughly" quit for any period of time. All of my "quits" before this one allowed for cigars, bummed dips or cigarettes because, well, something happened. :P
