Title: New here! Started my quit yesterday.
Post by: Clutchski on May 19, 2014, 03:34:00 PM
Hello I am new here. I've known about this site for awhile but just now signed up on the forums when I decided to quit. I am 23 years old and been dippin since I was 13 years old. I've tried smokey mountain snuff before but it didn't do it for me so I threw it away and bought the real stuff. I started doin research on other alternatives and decided to try hooch snuff and good thing there are stores around me that sells It so I dont have to worry about runnin out. My quit date is 5-18-14. I finished my last can of Copenhagen long cut on Saturday night an went to the store Sunday mornin and bought a few cans of hooch and so far it's workin. I'm glad to be here and I dot doubt that I will slip up and buy another can of Copenhagen but hopefully someday I can kick the can for good. Cause there's no other taste like Copenhagen.

Welcome, Clutchski. Prepare for the storm, both in withdrawals and from the bad ass quitters on this site!

As you may know from reading here, this site has a hardcore approach to quitting. There is no "try to quit" and "expecting to cave" and "hopefully someday I will quit". And there is no sympathy for statements like "there's no other taste like Copenhagen".

I also joined the forum early in my quit, unsure if I was really quit for good. I decided to drop the addict-speak, drink the Koolaid, and quit every damn day with the bad ass quitters. Join us!

Clutchski, go back in time and hit up the welcome center, learn to post roll, and read some other intro threads. Then, using this same intro thread, post a new intro without "hopefully" and other addict speak. You can get the support you need here, but you gotta respect this house and do it the KTC way.

WTF, I am going to give you some time to read the forums and edit your intro before I actually respond to this disaster. The normal rate of success for a 23 yo kid is about 3% given your level of understanding of nicotine addiction I would give you a .034% chance of success.

If you go all in I will go with you but no half assed bullshit! The part I quoted above makes me want to drown a kitten.

Clutchski- you really do need to be ready and be determined. Are you? Do you want to be free? Learn up about this stuff, it really is terrible beyond what i could have let myself understand at your age-- but you are years ahead of me by trying to quit. I'm quit now because I jumped into this site's method with both feet. If I can quit with this site, you can too- but it's hard and you gotta go all in and quit hard. If you're ready, post role and we'll all quit with you. You are addicted, by the way. It's clear.

Here's a helpful link...
Nicotine Addiction 101 (http://whyquit.com/whyquit/linksaaddiction.html)

Let us know if you are really going to jump in and do this with all you've got. The support will be there if so.

This pretty much says it. You need to unfuck yourself and try again.

You also said you don't doubt you will buy another can of Copenhagen.

Either you are here to quit or not. Your words tell me you are not.

Get in and post roll if you WANT to be quit. If not, don't waste our time. To stay quit today you are gonna have to bust your ass. I did it so I know u can.

I imagine message delivered, right? We don't try, we do. We know we are addicts, therefore we don't tolerate addict excuses or behavior. I hope you are ready to go all in for your quit. I know I certainly wasn't ready at your age, but wish I had been.
Read, post roll daily, learn, grow your accountability and quit. You can do this, but it won't be easy.

I am ready to quit. It is goin to be super hard. I'm the first out of all my friends that decided to quit but I won't let them influence me. If there really good friends they won't try to get me to take a dip. They will respect my decision. Again I am ready

Clutch, we can be pretty rough on this site, but it needs to be that way. Some of the guys will reach out to you on a personal level, and I recommend that you exchange numbers. I text with AppleJack every day, and it truly does make a difference. I had a bad stretch of posting roll, and he straightened me out. I apologized to the group and now truly realize how important it is. Man up, be accountable and post roll. You can beat this!

Let's roll now Clutch, you have quite a few guys watching now- that'll be great support. It's gonna be tough but if you have the stuff then quitters here will have your back and guide you.

Glad to see you doing it too! Make friends with guys around the same number of days, and others. The nicotine will be out of your body by the end of the day. There will still be physical symptoms but you are healing already! Way to go!!

Post by: Done4Me on May 20, 2014, 08:41:00 AM
You will be welcomed into our August quit group. You're not on the team until you commit to quit by posting roll. Do it early in the day since it's your commitment not to dip that day. We expect you to post daily, read all corners of the site. It will help you in the early days.

Try these instructions for: KTC How to Post Roll (http://www.killthecan.org/roll/)

1. Login, go to your quit page, think about what you are going to post.
2. Find the most recent post
3. hit F5 or refresh the page
4. Press "quote" on the roll
5. Click in the box that has all of the Roll posts (the lower box), hit CTRL-A to select all and Press CTRL-X to CUT, not copy-if you copy, then you'll double post roll.
6. Click to the reply window and press CTRL+V to paste it in. Then write in your name, day and your promise
7. Press submit-done.

Donkey Cock Drip probably tastes about the same. I'm just guessing.

Around 500 days ago I joined ktc. I posted some stupid shit, just like you did... Something about "the good times I shared with my good friend the Kodiak bear." Wow did I get the book thrown at me.

You know what is different about you than me? You are 20 years smarter than me. You are now on a path to save 40 thousand doars that I wasted. Your chances of having your face eaten away are way less than mine. And you are free much earlier in life than I am.

As for your friends.... This will be a great test to see who is really your friend. Friends help each other meet goals. Friends don't sleep with other friends girlfriends - right? Same deal with meeting this goal.

Post roll every day. Without exception. You can do this but you have to build up some rage. Welcome!!!

1. Wake Up

2. Cop a quick feel from the wife.

3. Sit on the shitter.

4. Post roll.

That's how I do it. Worked for me for 1,528 days. But what do I know?

Go ahead an wait until after work. Better yet, just drop in your intro page every now and then. Don't get involved in any way. Stand alone. Be a unique butterfly.

'Cuz the taste of 'Hagen is calling you bro.

Stand by for the fall.

Clutch do you need help learning how to post roll. Quitting because you don't want to die is a good reason to quit wouldn't you agree?

Clutch - man read this post from a veteran. It's so good. I'm August just like you and 4 days into my quit. Man if I had only stumbled onto something like KTC and saved myself 20+ years of Kodiak bullshit. The biggest thing that I am stressing is the freedom. I have a good job, good wife and 2 kids and I have "scheduling" my life around when I can get my next dip for 20 years! How fucked up is that?

I quit with you today

I quit with you today
I was at a friends place last night. He is a good man, just a little tripped up in life. Copenhagen cans everywhere, so drunk, all he really could do is sit and ask for more wine.

Addiction is a disease: It is chronic, it has similar symptoms and if left untreated, it can lead to death. Quit every day. Never start. Soon you will see that can for what it really is. That can is a liar, a bully, a narcissistic bitch, a killer and will steal everything you claim is important to you.

Quit every today. Soon, the truth about the can will be evident. There is no glamour, there is no fun its just a lie, be glad your done.

grizzly - yes, he texted SailorChase and told him, he was hoping to skate by and not feel the heat of it. He hasn't been back to answer the 3 questions since his cave. He's also not responding to texts/phone calls now.

Oh, my bad. Didn't see the part about you chewing Kodiak, chewie.
But, seriously, you'll have a lot more luck with the ladies if you come up with a different analogy for the way your dick tastes 'winker'
