Morning. You know how sometimes you need a kick in the ass to do something you already know you have to do? Got an earful last night from my 12 year old son. I didn't realize how much my stupid habit was affecting him. I'm tired of carrying dental floss around. I'm tired of hiding bottles of spit when a client gets in my car. I'm tired of all of it - (also tired of my hands shaking this morning).

Hide no more ninja dipper. we are here for you. Embrace the suck, let it know you hate it and you are not coming back. You are quit not taking a vacation! Post your roll. I do not see you in the rolls yet. index.php?showtopic=50 (http://forum.killthecan.org/index.php?showtopic=50) this will show you how to do it. If you have any questions let one of us or your mods know. I sent you my number to your inbox. Read, be accountable, and post your roll 100% of the time.

Had to jump in here. I started to decide to quit when my 11 year old son came to me crying. I tried to quit for him. I couldn't. I started sneaking it immediately.
That's what pissed me off enough to quit for me. This nasty shit had so much control over me it made me lie to my son. Fine. I can ninja dip in church. I can ninja dip at work. Hell I can even lie to the wife. I chose this shit, however briefly, over my son.
I quit that night. I chewed for 23 years. I'm on day 96 today. First bit is gonna suck man.
Ok listen. This is a cold turkey deal here. No patch. No gum. Dump your stash down the toilet. All of it. You are an addict. The nic bitch is going to whisper and tell you to keep some just in case. Dump it all.
Go buy jolly ranchers. Atomic fireballs. Some guys use fake chew. In use smokey mountain. I love it. It's made from corn silk. You can get some at walmart. I order it online.
Drink water.

Post roll every day.
This is the key to our success. We do this one day at a time. Every morning you will post roll and promise not to use nicotine today. You can do anything for one day. Then tomorrow you post roll and promise again and then I quit with you. One day at a time.
It's not easy but your brothers on here make it possible.
The last key is phone numbers. It's weird. But do it. Get phone numbers from guys on here and text them. Call them. I can't tell you how many times a simple text has given me the oomph I needed to make it that day.
It sucks when the realization actually hits you that you are an addict. But you can get free.
Congrats on your decision to choose freedom.

Lots of water for the next few days and get some exercise. Arm yourself with gum, hard candy, jerky...whatever works. First 3-4 days are the worst. We've all done this, you can too.

You'll get a lot of helpful tips and advice- take it as you see fit and learn all you can-- congratulations! This may be the most important thing you ever did!

That right there is some righteous advice Bulldog. Covered just about everything you need.
I will add that this must be the number one priority in your life right now. That's what it is going to take. At least at first. Everything else must take a back seat. Everything. I was absolutely useless at work and at home, hell in life, for the first weak.
But it can be done. You just have to want to quit more than anything right now.
Do you?
You have no idea how great things can be when you are free. You must pay the price though. It's worth it.

Ready is right. The first week the quit will consume all your time! I don't think I got anything done the first week. Things started to get back to normal for me on about day 8.

Didn't see it posted here but you are in the June 2014 Quit Group. If you haven't posted Roll yet you gotta do it daily.

Make sure you have a weekend plan. Drinking on an early quit might not be the best idea.

Weekends are tough, I won't lie to you. But, I started my quit on a weekend. If you reach out to someone who you can talk to when your cravings start to hit, you can make it through any time just fine.

Welcome to the June quit group. Gonna be a tough few days ahead. I'm on day 6 and the brain fog is starting to get better. My kids thought I quit two years ago but I lied to them and kept it hidden the whole time. Never could quit on my own and I know it sounds weird but having these people that you don't know cheering you on makes all the difference in the world. I don't want to let them or myself down by giving in. Post roll everyday to make your daily promise to stay nicotine free. If you have questions, ask them. This place is full of experience on how to get it done. Congrats.
