Title: Sick of Living In Fear
Post by: 5amRoadWork on December 23, 2013, 01:34:00 PM
I'm a 23 year old male who's been chewing off and on (usually on) for about 3-3.5 yearsÂ… I remember the first time I tried it, I was offered it by a co-worker and I fell in love with it. Since then the time has just flew by and I really don't want to think about all the money I've wasted and how much I've chewed.

I would usually chew 3 (34g) cans a week. Sometimes more, sometimes less. I've hid my addiction from EVERYONE I know. I wasn't even sure if averaging 3 cans a week was a lot or not because I never looked into chewing tobacco or talked to others who did it. I kept it on the down low, didn't think about it. I just did it because I enjoyed it.

But it's gotten to the point where it's not even fun anymore.

I live in Canada where it costs $25 a can. When I started just a couple years back I believe it was $18 a can.
Averaging about 3 cans a week isn't a whole lot now that I'm reading the stories of others here, but it's still expensive at $50-$100 a week.

Another reason I've decided to quit is the fear of getting caught. I'm an independent adult who lives on my own, I have a career, a mortgage, etc I'm free to do what I want but because I've hid this for such a long time, it's gotten to the point where I've become super paranoid about it. When I go to the convince store to buy, I wait in my car until no one else is in the store in fear of running into someone I know while I'm buying a can.
It's a mix of not wanting people to know I have an addiction and also I live in the same small town as my parents. So someone finding out, the word spreading and, while highly unlikely, it getting back to my parents would be awful because I know it would disappoint them.
My mom found a can in my car when I was 19 and she cried. I convinced her it was my friend's and she believed it.

The main reason why it's not longer fun is the fear and paranoia I feel about my health. I don't know a whole lot about the health risks because I was afraid to look into it, still am, but I constantly lose sleep over it. I checked my blood pressure a few months back and it was a bit high considering my good health. That had me freaking out.
I have a couple cavities that weigh on my mind constantly.
If I get an ulcer or a cut in my mouth or lips I lose sleep.
I'm constantly checking my mouth in the mirror, if I find anything, a bump on my tongue, anything that even looks remotely like a white spot on my gums, I absolutely lose my shit and freak out.
Every time I dip, I enjoy doing it but there's this awful feeling that I'm going to get cancer and die. It makes me sick to my stomach.

It's just not worth it anymore.

I know quitting will be difficult because I've always associated doing it with doing something "fun".
Any time I'm alone and doing something "fun", I have to throw in a dip.

If I'm about to watch a movie.
About to listen to a new album.
About to watch a sporting event.
Or even coming home after work, I'd have to sit back and relax with a dip in.
Anytime I do anything "fun", I have to enhance the experience with chewing tobacco.

It's time for me to change. I'm sick of living in fear.


ps. Forgive me if this is too long of a post. Thanks for taking the time to read.

All I can say is that you've come to the right spot.

From what I've learned in my short time here, I can say that this group makes quitting the simplest, yet still hardest thing you'll ever do. Post roll every morning and then keep your word for the rest of that day. Simple. Grind through the craves  the suck, hard.....but there are plenty of guys here to lean on when the shit hits the fan.

Own your quit, keep your word  take it One Day At A Time (ODAAT). Simple but hard.

Now read everything in the Welcome Center. I also found the HOF speeches very useful and inspiring.

You can do this!

Just do it man!! Quit! Read the welcome center, read everything on this site, and stick tithe program. Follow it to the T, and you will be successful. This site is for quitters and there are thousands here who were just like you. Flush your shit and post roll, then you will be a quitter with the support of thousands others just like you.

Make sure you're quit before you post roll. And posting roll is sacred, so honor that promise. Shoot me a PM if you have questions.

I agree, I think you would be a great leader and that will strengthen your quit even more because the 100-150 others that sign up for April 2014 group will look up to you. Every group needs strong quitters to help and don't be discouraged only about 1/3 actually make it to 100 days. That shows how rough this addiction is. Oh yea if you quit today you'll reach 100 on my 2 year anniversary.

5am - welcome to the site!

Step 1 to quitting is to dump all your cans (including any secret stashes in your golf bag, tool box, etc) into the toilet and flush. its not enough to put full cans in your garbage. This includes nicorette gum, cigars, and anything with nicotine in it. Get rid of it.

Step 2 is to click on the pink WELCOME CENTER link near the top left of this page, and learn how to post roll. You will be in the April 2014 group (because you'll reach 100 days quit in April 2014) and you will post roll in there. POST ROLL EVERY SINGLE DAY WITHOUT EXCEPTION. Posting roll is your promise to your group that you will not use nicotine that day, all day, no matter what. It is the cornerstone of the KTC program.

Step 3 is to keep your word and not use nicotine all day, just for that 1 day. We quit one day at a time here, because forever is often too overwhelming.

Step 4 is to reach out to others in this intro thread, and especially in your April 2014 group, and exchange phone numbers. This gives you a back up plan in times of an emergency, so you can text or call a quit brother if/when you ever need to.

You need to be committed to quitting to be successful. People who just want to "TRY" to quit, never do. Decide you are quit, and be quit.

Rick

With Bean on this. You seem to have a good wrap around you own head. This will help in your early quit.
Whats going to be a ton of fun is the later days when the ole nic hussy comes knocking at your window...3am...askiing you to come out for just a quick walk and a gentle kiss. She might say kiss, but you know she wants to get deep inside you...orally.
She cute, hot, and knows you can keep a secret. As you start to climb out that window looking for some reprieve from weeks of abstinance, i want you to look at her knees, just inside the thigh.
You should see a twinkle there. That is the frothy drip of clymidiya ooozeing from her snatch. That is your reward for one swinging time with her.
Make your decision well....next time you think of this bitch.

I know this is a busy time of year but honestly, that's addict talk. A way of leaving the door open. If you wanted to find time for a dip you would find lots of time.

This tells you how to post roll.
index.php?showtopic=50 (http://forum.killthecan.org/index.php?showtopic=50)

This is where you will post roll
index.php?showtopic=9259 (http://forum.killthecan.org/index.php?showtopic=9259)

Posting roll takes 30 seconds once you learn how to do it. You have to make your quit a priority, bro. No excuses.

Hey guys, thanks a lot.

After checking out the site a bit more, I've figured out that I've been fucking up the whole time.

After the first day, I picked up a pack of Nicorette gum and had been chewing it on and off during cravings since I first joined the site. I now see the mistake I was making.

I'm going to start fresh tomorrow and post roll.

Even though I was still getting the occasionally nic fix, I've noticed the symptoms. I can only imagine what they'll be like I'm doing this free and clean.

Headaches
Lack of sleep
Sore throat
Extreme anxiety
Occasionally my jaw gets sore like I have a bad head cold

It's a beautiful thing.
Thanks for the support.

I joined this site a little while backÂ… At the time, I was excited to quit and posted to roll call for a few daysÂ… After a while I made the excuse that coming to this site and posting roll every day was a hassle... So I stoppedÂ… I said to myself "I won't post roll on KTC.com, but I'll still stay chew-freeÂ…"Â… Nope, a couple days later, I found myself in a 7-11 buying Copenhagen Long Cut againÂ…

This is the mindset of an addictÂ… I've dealt with multiple addictions in my life, and I've come to realize that when you're addicted, your mind will play tricks on youÂ…

An addict's mind will think completely illogical in order to get back to feeding the addictionÂ… No matter how absurd the thought is, the addict's mind will try and find reasoning behind it and try to find a way to justify negative, ass-backwards behaviour in the name of fuelling the addictionÂ…

I'm ready to quitÂ… I've had my quit planned out for a while nowÂ… I've been slowing my addiction down and on Tuesday, July 1st, 2014Â… I'm going nic/tobacco freeÂ…

This is it for meÂ…

Honestly, it makes no sense that I still use smokeless tobaccoÂ… I hate doing itÂ… I feel awful every time I throw in a dip... I constantly think about the damaging affects it has, the potential it has to harm me, etcÂ… But I still do itÂ… That's an addiction, I guessÂ…

I've reached a point where I feel it's time for me to take my life backÂ… It's time for me to challenge myselfÂ… To do things that I thought were impossibleÂ… One of these things is quitting the chewÂ… I know I can do it, I really believe I can, so I'm going to take this on and do itÂ… Not only for the health benefits but to prove to myself I can accomplish something no matter how difficult it appears to beÂ…

Cheers, friendsÂ… We're all gonna get through this...

Then quit now.

What's so special about July 1st? You're probably in withdrawal anyways right now. Get a leg up and have most of the poison out of your system by the .

Then buckle up. I need 3 answers and need you to be serious. Give Everything or go home.

Dump your stash, answer the 3 questions and quit now.

You can't wean yourself off this garbage. You have to do it cold turkey. It will suck the same way regardless.

How many more times can you say "I will quit tomorrow"? There is no tomorrow. There is only today.

What's so special about July 1st? You're probably in withdrawal anyways right now. Get a leg up and have most of the poison out of your system by the .

Then buckle up. I need 3 answers and need you to be serious. Give Everything or go home.
Dump your stash, answer the 3 questions and quit now.

You can't wean yourself off this garbage. You have to do it cold turkey. It will suck the same way regardless.

How many more times can you say "I will quit tomorrow"? There is no tomorrow. There is only today.
You were a part of April 14 for a short time........so you need to come post with us as well. You would be on day 178  feeling a hell of a lot better than going through the suck again. Dump your Cope L/C  jump back in here....never know if it's the one that saves your life.

Answer the 3 questions.

I joined this site a little while backÂ… At the time, I was excited to quit and posted to roll call for a few daysÂ… After a while I made the excuse that coming to this site and posting roll every day was a hassle... So I stoppedÂ… I said to myself "I won't post roll on KTC.com, but I'll still stay chew-freeÂ…"Â… Nope, a couple days later, I found myself in a 7-11 buying Copenhagen Long Cut againÂ…

This is the mindset of an addictÂ… I've dealt with multiple addictions in my life, and I've come to realize that when you're addicted, your mind will play tricks on youÂ…

An addict's mind will think completely illogical in order to get back to feeding the addictionÂ… No matter how absurd the thought is, the addict's mind will try and find reasoning behind it and try to find a way to justify negative, ass-backwards behaviour in the name of fuelling the addictionÂ…

I'm ready to quitÂ… I've had my quit planned out for a while nowÂ… I've been slowing my addiction down and on Tuesday, July 1st, 2014Â… I'm going nic/tobacco freeÂ…

This is it for meÂ…

Honestly, it makes no sense that I still use smokeless tobaccoÂ… I hate doing itÂ… I feel awful every time I throw in a dip... I constantly think about the damaging affects it has, the potential it has to harm me, etcÂ… But I still do itÂ… That's an addiction, I guessÂ…

I've reached a point where I feel it's time for me to take my life backÂ… It's time for me to challenge myselfÂ… To do things that I thought were impossibleÂ… One of these things is quitting the chewÂ… I know I can do it, I really believe I can, so I'm going to take this on and do itÂ… Not only for the health benefits but to prove to myself I can accomplish something no matter how difficult it appears to beÂ…

Planning to quit is planning to fail, Do or do not.. no trying. How many times have we "planned" to quit on "xyz" day.... do yourself a favor as I can see your are still reading your intro as I am posting.

Dump it all, post your Day 1. Answer the 3 questions with some thought. First though you'll need to look deep inside and decide you really want to "quit" for you. Waiting for Tuesday, whatever day that ends with a y, that's just the nic bitch's way of keeping you hooked for "just one more".

Sack up and quit now or your really just wasting everyone's time.

OKay, Well, I sorry for wasting everyone's time. I tried to quit and failed. Everyone is acting self-righteous like they never had a chewing addiction to begin with.

I'm quitting. That's my plan. I guarantee everyone who said I was wasting everyone's time has dipped longer than I have and probably have tried to quit multiple times. But because I failed while being a member of this site, I'm wasting people's time. Fine, I won't post anymore until my planned quit date on Tuesday. And I guess since my quit date is Tuesday and not today, that means I'm going to fail, right?

Actually quite the opposite. Hell, by Tuesday you could be quit almost 72 hours. Enough time to get through the physical withdrawal.

Yes, 5am you will fail because you do not see the truth. The truth is you are an addict and if you plan to quit in the future, the future will never come. What happens if tomorrow for some strange reason, you go to the doctor for a work injury and while at the doctor they take blood. Your white blood cell count is high and investigation reveals you have cancer. Should you have waited to quit? Was tomorrow the day that the weed gave you cancer? I don't know but why the fuck quit on July 1. It will suck the same today as it does on July 1. Maybe wait until after the July 4th since you won't want to be grumpy on the 4th. No one is on their high horse here friend. We want you to quit, we love sticking it to US Tobacco. But your attitude is fucked and you will not succeed unless you get on with quitting and start living a nicotine free life. For the record, I have not quit many times. I stopped many times over 25 years of using the fucking weed but I have only quit once and that was 222 days ago. If you are serious send me a PM I will give you my digits and my support but you need to man up first sweetie!

Probably.... your leaving the door open. Quitting is about slamming that door and saying fuck you not today! Why be a slave for another day or two, that will most likely turn into another, month, year.....

I'm hoping the stress will die down in a day or two and being able to quit thenÂ… Even that is is stretch but that's my planÂ….

If you are waiting for your life to become less stressful so you can quit then your mind isn't right to begin with. You are already making excuses to keep the nic bitch in your life. Life is not gonna calm down so you can quit. You need to nut up and grab the bull by the horns friend. We are here to help you but not a single one of us can help you until you are truly ready to help yourself. You might as well dump it and start day 1 now. The suck is the suck whether it's today or next year. Just get it over with. Until you stop making excuses you will not truly quit. Remember that the dip you just had to have tomorrow morning just might be the one that turns healthy cells into cancerous ones. We would love to guide you through the suck but until you get your head on right our hands are tied.

I tried to quit a few times. Always carried the mindset I can quit whenever I want. It wasn't until I found KTC and a couple of vets reached out to me and taught me I was an idiot and an addict. Now I know what quitting is and what it means. I'm glad you dumped the shit brother. It's a big step but it's worth taking that step if it means you are saving your own life. Make sure you post roll with the Titans of quit in the October group. They are a solid group. Read everything you can on KTC and build yourself a Web of Accountability so big that you could never find a way to cave. If you utilize this site to the fullest you will stay quit.

Your question is irrelevant 5am.....you need to put your mind right and focus on your quit. If you are worried about how many times I stopped or Waste stopped or is the fucking sun coming out tomorrow your head is not right. This is the Nic Bitch talking, you are already caving and haven't even quit yet. Trying to justify your cave already is what is happening. Fuck that, you need to man up. Answer the 3 questions and post roll when you are seriously quitting otherwise you are wasting our time. Only you can make the decision to quit, all we can do is show you the path of enlightenment friend, you need to walk the path, we can't drag your ass!

Honestly? I really only tried to quit one time. June 4th 2012. 757 days later I'm still quit.

I THOUGHT about quitting a lot but never really tried. I was too stupid.

I finally quit because I wanted to. I was scared and I had enough.

It Fucking SUCKED a big fat dick for about 70-80 days. I mean REALLY bad.

I'm talking depression, anxiety, trips to a shrink, etc...He'll I even left the site for about a month because I was so jacked up.

But I never once caved.

I wanted to quit and no matter what it took I was going to do it.

If you don't want to quit and are only doing it because you think it's the right thing to do...you probably aren't going to make it, Bud.

However, if you truly do want to quit, this is the place to be. We want to help you, but I can see you fighting it. I can see you think you're different. You have your rebuttals all lined up.

Truth is we've heard them all before...and they're all bullshit.

You either want this or you don't. If you want it you'll fight with everything you got. If you don't your fade away like a footprint in the sand.

We're here to help you is you truly want it.

If not...best of luck to ya, fella.

Countless times, all met with failure. Until I found the Brotherhood here. Real people who were willing to hold me accountable with no bullshit excuses for caving, and called out weakness for what it is. Nut up, stick through it, its not easy, but it is possible, you gotta want it. Post roll, honor that word and repeat daily.

2 times I stopped for 3 years. Each of those tes it was for the wrong reason, for someone else. I probably threw hundreds of partially used cans away only to go back later
And get them. Keeping that mental note of where they were proved I wasn't serious. You have received some tough love because we all recognize the addict talk. Every time you put posting off or come up with an excuse it's that addict inside you going into protective mode.

I chewed for 17 years, I quit 3-4 times a year, so let's average that out and come to 68. That's when nicotine went down on me, and I told it to fuck off. I joke, but until you buy into the KTC hook, line and sinker you might as well 69 with the bitch.

I had a bad weekend too. I hate my neighbors, so there is always that stress. I started setting up the inflatable pool, and the inflatable ring had a big hole in it so I had to jury rig that up, and it looks like shit, and then kids say "we don't wanna swim in that pool this summer" after 4 hours and 2000 gallons of water. Then my wife gets on me about the pool. Then I had to sit a BWW"s for the entire Tiger game to watch them lose yesterday while a bunch of Netherland's fan with flags and orange wooden shoes got drunk and almost got into with the Mexican fans over the 2-1 loss of soccer, then a bunch of Greeks came in and were eyeballing me and my son because we were into the Tigers........who lost to the fukkin Astros'. The fucking Astros???????????

Guess what I didn't do? Use nicotine. [/rant]

He was lurking today again. Trying to figure out if he has the courage to jump in the deep end of the pool I suspect. 5am you are an addict, face it. If you want to quit this shit, you need to admit to that and get on with quitting. Can you see that? You said that you were quitting July 1.....So today is July 1 or are we waiting till after July 4th now? How about after Christmas, don't want to be grumpy during Christmas.....we're waiting.......... 'na na'

How you could you possibly quit before 4th of July - I know I couldn't possibly have a burger or a dog without packing a huge fatty - or labor day or as Menace said Christmas? As everyone has said this is addict speak and we all recognize it because we've all been there. I was a lurker on this site once for about 5 minutes and was thinking about quitting. My in-laws were coming into town and I read that quitting would make you irritable. My nicotine addict seized on this immediately and told me I didn't want to be irritable in front of my in-laws. So I put it off. That was 3 YEARS ago - and man did I hammer dip for those 3 years - I guess the nic bitch was scared I even went to this site!

Bottom line - we've all been in your shoes. I'm quit 45 days - no where near as long as some of the vets dropping knowledge in here, but I feel better than I have in years and I've realized that TODAY I don't need dip. I'll worry about tomorrow - tomorrow.

You need to wake up and see this addiction for what it has done to you. Nicotine addiction built a prison inside your mind for your free will and inserted your free will therein. Nicotine lulled you into believing you are not an addict or lulled you into believing you were different from other addicts. Both scenarios are false and the truth is far simpler. U.S. tobacco companies designed their products to make you into their cash register. You are their cash cow!!! The more nicotine you ingest the more likely you will ingest more in the near future and the less likely you will realize you are an addict or realize you are the same as every other addict. Therefore, you can't wait another day because tomorrow might be too late.

You can do this! Take my post to heart and wake up!

Shit man...In the beginning I found I had to take a lot of what the vets were saying on faith..."One day at a time", "It gets better" blah, blah , blah. The thing is , all the sayings that are thrown around here are true. Life is brand new when we are free. Its really hard to describe. So you have to have a little faith and gut it out till you start seeing it for yourself. The sad thing is you gave in before you could see for yourself. You have to CRAVE FREEDOM. No one can do this for you. But there are a lot of quitters that want to help. C'mon 5am. Stop lurking and start quitting for real this time.

Seriously it is time for you to strap on your big girl panties, dump that worm dirt in the damn toilet and get your ass on ROLL. If you don't get your head outta your ass and Quit now then...... I guess in the future a picture of you after your face is cut off will be one of our tools to convince people to actually QUIT. Get your ass on ROLL and think about what you will be like without a face... Only you can make the choice!

I know you're holed up somewhere finger banging a can. It's what pussies do.

5 am. road work, i've never had the privilege of talking to you, nor do i wish to at this moment. I would like to talk to your master very briefly if you don't mind. If you do that's to bad, it's clear your not in control of anything.

Hey poison, this is the second 4th of july i'll be spending without you in my life. I hate you more than ever today. I hate that I spent over 25 4th of july's with you. You stole more from me than i can ever get back. I have lost 1000,s of dollars, years of dignity and I was a lying cheating peace of sh@@ because of you. I was bound, chained and gagged for way to long. No more do you have a place in my life. My hate for you has grown stronger and stronger for 505 days. I continue to build that hate as the days add up. Screw you poison. Today I'll be grilling, spending time with the family, playing some chess and throwing some corn hole without your sorry a@@.

As you were road work, or was it road kill?
