Hello my name is Clay and I'm a hardcore nicotine addict. I've used tobacco since I was 16. I quit when I was 28 and started again at 33. After 5 years I thought I was totally free and clear. I went golfing with a buddy who pulled out a can and I remember saying mind if I bum a dip. To this day I don't know why. I'm now 47 and have a 3 can a day Grizzly obsession. I have to quit. I started cutting back 4 days ago and am down to less than a can a day. I went eight hours today without a dip and I thought my head would explode. I'm not a quitter yet but I will make roll call on Wednesday morning. I'm committed but until I quit those are just words. I will give it everything I have and I'm glad there is a site like this that I can go to for help and support. Talk to everyone soon.

Congratulations on recognizing 1) that you're an addict and 2) you need help. Your story is a perfect example of why each and every day we take our quit one day at a time (ODAAT) and that this will become a way of life for us as long as we stay quit. What hits home even more is that you had quit for 5 years,Â…and then one bad decision in a 1 minute span brought you all the way back to where you started, and possibly in the hole deeper. I'm 19 days into my quit as of this writing and having seen some veteran posts, they don't see their quit any different than mine, even if we're 1000 days apart. Because, as you describe, all it takes is 1 bad split second, impulsive decision, whether your a 5 year quitter or 2 day quitter.
You're going to get hit up with some serious veteran knowledge and we'll be on you to post roll and make sure you make that daily promise to yourself and your fellow brothers here at KTC, that you will not use nicotine for that day. I look forward to posting and making that promise with you day in and day out.

Dude, just dump your fuckin shit and quit!!!!!!!! Do it right now and post day 1. To hell with trying to taper off. Do it now!!!!!!!!
-
Looks like you are like a lot of us on here. Started in teens, used for many years, tried to quit/took a break, and just one led you back down the wrong path.
Well this is the place, and now is the time, Yes dump all that you have and make that decision deep down to quit this time.
Look at yourself in the mirror and say I am quit for today.
then post roll
Do that day after day , and with us here to stand shoulder to shoulder with you in our journey we can win.
-
CCB, what are you waiting for? Seriously, make the commitment now. How many times have you said I'll quit on X day? You never know, tomorrow might be the day that cancer starts because you needed one more day. Grab you sack, flush your stash and man up. We are here to support you and want to see you succeed!
-
Wednesday I start my diet too. Good luck to both of us.
-
Weaning off the nic addiction does not work. You just have to quit and deal with the process. You are wasting time. Why not just man the F up and quit right now?
-
Wednesday I start my diet too. Good luck to both of us.
I think I will start being rich on Wednesday.....

Love your 'sarcasm' Diesel! No luck involved in quitting and tomorrow may never come. So flush the shit now and quit listening to that addicted mind.

Hey part of the reason you never quit is because you have always done it your way....and you my friend are an ADDICT! Being an ADDICT, you are going to find a way to continue using. Here is the deal dump, destroy, throw away all items that have to do with nicotine. Clean out you car and house.....Grab something to keep you mouth busy such as seeds, gum, hard candy, toothpicks, fake chew. Work out, have sex, drink water, and avoid alcohol. You need to listen because we have ALL been where you are. We are here to help but while you are still using you are WEAK and there is no room for weakness in a QUIT.

You bastards are hardcore. I have fantasized about my last dip for awhile now. It would be New Years Eve and I'd have some beers and then feel the rush for one last time. I was angry at this board for not cutting a newbie some slack. Going from 3 cans a day to nothing is asking too much. You guys have no idea what I'm going through. I went on and on in my mind making excuses.
Everything I thought is what a weak dick addict would think. Well today I'm not one anymore. I didn't know it at the time but I had my last dip yesterday right before I posted my intro. I can't speak for tomorrow yet but I promise myself that I HAVE NOT and I WILL NOT use nicotine today.
By the way, I want each of you hardcore bastards to know you made a difference in a strangers life and for that I thank you.

Way to go, you have that many hours under your belt now at least! And, you already had one big headache before you quit- you'll get another- the nic bitch thinks that'll work until you teach her it won't anymore. You'll get all sorts of tricks. Work through them, blow through them, get through them one at a time. You can do this - you are tough enough, you are ready enough, you are open enough to listen to others and let them help you.
I'm quitting with you today. Way to go!
-
Good job on the quit for today I quit with you and everyday you post.
-
Thanks gentlemen. I must admit this fucking sucks. I'm light headed, I have a massive headache, and I feel like there is a hole in my soul. Just taking it one minute at a time and hoping to feel human again soon.

It's amazing how deep the nicbitch had her claws in your mental and phyisical and emotional life, isn't it? And how hard she fights back when you neglect her. You have to fight harder than her, but you can do it. Perseverence wins in the end. Your body was made to be without nicotine, but the evil of the addiction doesn't go away without you earning some peace and freedom. It will be worth it.

One can, half a can, three cans, tucan fucking Sam. It don't matter. An addicts an addict.
You're no more addicted than me or any less addicted than Tom, Dick or Harry on Ktc.
You're on the installment plan to death.
We all were.
Your fantasy about quitting at midnight is just that...a fantasy. That shit always sounds better in your head than it plays out it real life.
And if you been finger fucking three cans a day, you aren't feeling any "rush" when you load up. The law of diminishing returns set in a looong time ago on your ass. You aint even getting 1/16 of a buzz when you chin dip. Your addicted brain is telling you it's time for poison. Nothing more.
Tonight wont be easy. New Years Eve...it's like a day MADE for dipping. People getting shit faced sucking down lung darts, guys thinking they are hot shit smoking down cigars the size of boat oars, metro sexuals and nickles trying to be dime women "vaping" on e-cigs. Why not be the dude with a lip full of shit spitting into a red solo cup or two fisting it with one bottle of beer and bottle of spit. New Years Ever is a fucking nicotine palooza.
Then...at midnight when the ball drops in Time Square you promise, "TOMORROW, IM DONE!!!". Then tomorrow comes and you find some bullshit reason to go on, and the years start adding up. Who knows if that dip you throw in just before the ball drops is the on that starts the cancer process, and ultimately leads to death.
I'm sure their are thousands on here who have promised to quit as a new years resolution....and have failed.
Looks like you have grown a pair though and decided to draw a line in the sand. Well done!!!!
You say you HAVE NOT and WILL NOT use nicotine today.
That's the magic formula around here, Bub.
Fuck yesterday and don't worry about tomorrow. Focus on today.
You get stuck and shit is getting bat shit crazy, come here. Get in chat, read stuff, vent, tell me to go fuck myself...whatever it takes to keep the shit out of your mouth.
You're doing the right thing by doing this NOW.
The best time to quit is today. The worst time to quit is tomorrow.
You got this.
Quit on...

The nic bitch will claw at you everyday but as days go on it will get easier to push that bitch away . I highly suggest getting in you group get some numbers also get some veterens numbers because when you are having a bad day and that bitch is clawing at you bad you can call one of us to help pull that bitch off of you and keep you quitting. As the days go on you will hate that bitch more and more ,but remember you have to do it one day at a time
p.s. If you want my number just give me a PM

This is freaking poetry and I'm left trying to figure out how I can up the intensity of my quit. It's like porn I guess. Right now I'm fucking the nicotine bitch every which way I can, but I really should be going strait to anal.
CC, glad to have you on board and don't quit the quit. I quit with you every damn day.

This is a recap of what I've gone through so far so I'll never forget.
Day 1. Didn't expect to quit. It was News Year Eve and I posted how I was going to quit the next morning. Everyone knows how that went over on this site. Did have beers with the wife for New Years. She warned me not to because I was on day one. I told her the craves couldn't get any worse. I was horribly wrong.
Day 2. The absolute worst day I've ever had. I felt like I was buzzing from the withdrawals. The fog and yearning were never ending. I actually felt like I had a hole in my soul. Stayed home all day curled up in the fetal position.
Day 3. Better than day 2 but not much. Thank god I didn't have to work today either. The craving was constant or it seemed to be but the fog was a little lighter.
Days 4-9. The worst of the physical withdrawals have past. I did have serious craves that seemed like they lasted forever. I began timing them and they always lasted less then 3 minutes just as advertised. My weapons of choice in the battle is reading KTC multiple times a day and sucking on peppermints all day long.
Days 10-13. Cravings are less often and less severe. They are pretty predictable (after a meal, first thing in the morning, etc) so I come up with a plan to defeat them each time (staying busy is the key). I've also become a workout maniac. I've worked out everyday since I quit. I also had my first vivid dip dream. I'm glad because the sadness I felt for betraying myself and everyone else was over whelming. I never want to feel that for real.
I will not use today and then tomorrow will be two weeks. I'm proud of myself for what I've done so far. I also know this battle has just begun and I must remain vigilant.

Dude this is awesome. Less than two weeks in and you're already employing the fundamentals that will keep your quit strong. Keep smacking the NB upside her head every damn day and you're going to plow through two weeks tomorrow. Nicely done!

It's great to see you doing so well! Keep building your network for accountabilty and support. You're building a toolkit that will help you stay quit for good! Glad to quit with you today again!

Glad to see the realization hit man.
"You guys have no idea what I'm going through." ----Nah man, these guys know EXACTLY what you are going through. I though the exact same thing. There are guys here that were raised on tobacco farms and have had nicotine in their systems since age 4!
"I was angry at this board for not cutting a newbie some slack."----That right there, that twisted thinking was the beginning of my decision to quit. "Eff these guys for telling me I can quit and I can do it now, today, this very second! No I can't! I have a plan, I have a schedule I can quit then, but not now! What the hell do they know?!?" Then something tiny clicks, like, "Wait, I came here for help quitting, and they are telling me I can quit. And I can do it right now." Man, what a day of psychotic self-argument. I posted at 2:08pm on December 4th, with a detailed plan of how I was tapering off and quitting Dec 31. After raking myself over the KTC coals I flushed my stash at 12:00am Dec 5th, and stayed up all night reading glorious storys of Quit.
Your Thread title is perfect. "Nicotine Addict" I was trying to quit with gum, I have mainly dipped, but I would smoke, hooka'd, snuff, anything to get that buzz. If I had followed MY plan, I would still be using nicotine today, I have no doubt. My intro if youre interested. I feel like it should embarress me, but it doesn't, it was started by a guy who was dominated by his addiction, today I dominate Nicotine by quitting, with you, and all these Hardcore Bastards. index.php?showtopic=9192st=120 (http://forum.killthecan.org/index.php?showtopic=9192&st=120)
