Hello Quitters,
I know i'm a little Late on the introduction seeing that I am on 86 days Quit. But with all of the support i have received here it only seems right to let y'all know about the Tinman.
Im a 40 year old Sheet Metal Worker (TINMAN) from Ohio. I have been chewing Copenhagen fine cut since the age of 13 = 27 long years. I really didn't have any kind of a scare or anything other than I just really enjoy My kids.
I was sitting on the couch this summer holding my little girl and this overwhelming feeling just came over me that I love coaching and raising my son and that i want to be able to do the same with my little girl.
So on the third day of my Quit, i googled something to help curb a craving for Cope and BOOM KTC popped up. I started reading and the rest is History. Now it has been anything but easy, but I connected with a couple brothers from my Oct group, and they Never hesitated to bail or help me out any time I needed it.
P.S. I would gladly recommend this place to any person who is under the Grip OF THE Dip
Sincerely and Still QUIT
The TINMAN

Hello, I'm Tinmancole I've been chewing Copenhagen Fine cut for 27 years.
I was introduced by a cousin at 13 and was hooked from day 1. To be honest with you I loved it the taste the smell the spit, but in the back of my mind I always thought about the C word. As the years flew by I had a son then 10 years later a daughter . And jus sitting on the couch the other night looking at her , I said to myself I wanna be around this girl for a long time. So it not really being about me. I made the decision 6 days ago to go cold Turkey for the first time in nearly thirty years. And with the help of KTC. It's still far from easy but the support is a must have!!
THANX TINMAN

Welcome to KTC Tinman and congratulations on six days. Posting our promise, every damn day, is the cornerstone of what we do here and I see that you have posted yours. I look forward to seeing you engage with your brothers in October. Although your daughter may have kicked your butt over here, make sure you take the time to learn to hate nicotine in all forms and the control it exercised on you.

Hey Tin, keep working the system man. We are all here for you. If you ever need anything , feel free to give me a shout. I am normally around some where here or there.
When the chips got you down or you got some time to spare, dont forget the words of wisdom and the hall of fame speeches are great material. And feel free to mingle in other quit groups. Your not just devoted to yours only. You can jump in any one and offer up support as well. I have learned though through a couple posts and PM's, if you want to jump in chat, please be respectful and post under other support first. Not a rule but gets you a couple steps further.
anyhow, take care man. Look forward to seeing you on the boards and in chat!
