Hey everyone! Obviously im new here still working my way around, but just want to start off by asking for help and advise. Im in the military and currently deployed, ive been dipping since i was 17 and am now 23. I want to quit. I want to just because i find myself doing it only because i need to satisfy my cravings and for no other reason that that other than i need my fix. Ive chewed any where from 2 cans a day to having absolutly none for 9 weeks before jumping right back into it out of basic training. right now and for the last 3 days ive cut it down to throwin a lip in on the way to post, and one on the way back...but i want it gone. I dont know where to go from here, ive ordered some smokey mountain snuff and its on its way and im hoping that will help satisfy the oral fixation aspect of this evil. any thing helps guys and i appreciate it in advance

This site can help you kick your nicotine habit to the curb. We don't use words like try or hope as they are just another excuse for our addictive brains to tell us another lie. There are no short cuts, but here are some links that will help you navigate this site.
This a NO NICOTINE site. End of discussion. Why this Site Works (http://www.killthecan.org/about/why.asp)
Biggest thing to do is get acquainted with this site.
Highly recommend you go here: Welcome Center (http://forum.killthecan.org/index.php?showforum=13), Getting Acclimated (http://forum.killthecan.org/index.php?showtopic=7614), What to Expect (http://www.killthecan.org/yourquit/what.asp) Top Ten List (http://forum.killthecan.org/index.php?showtopic=8382)
Your quit Decision (http://forum.killthecan.org/index.php?showtopic=1791&view=findpost&p=4771433) MUST be 100% about you. Anything short of that sets you up for failure by allowing your addict brain to blame a given situation as reason for you to go back to the can. Quitting out of fear of a medical issue fades as soon as the doctor or dentist gives you a clean bill of health.
Thanks for your service

Hey man, good for you.
I'm a 20 year chewer and I've 'tried' quitting 50+ times. Today's only my 10th day being quit, but 10 days is a milestone for me and this time it's just different...
My simple advice to you is:
-First, make a decision. Are you quitting? There's no gray area.
-If you really want to quit and are tired of telling yourself lies or waiting to get cancer, take the time to read the simple instructions.
-Accept the advice of your friends on this site. There is an army of people on KTC (all far ballsier and wiser than I) that will give you candid, real, and helpful guidance.
-Man up.
Welcome. This place is legit.

Well here we go....after a spending the last day checking out the ins and outs of this site, ive decided its about fucking time i kicked this habit out of my life for good! Ive realized its only me that can do it, all the times i "quit" for my Fiance, my brother, or anyone else that said it was bad...well i realize why it never worked. Because I didnt want to. Well this time its different, i want it, I want my quit, and i want this to be in the past and out of my life. I come from a long line of addictive personalities, drugs, alcohol, you name it and my addiction to this poison is just as bad! My dad quit drinking when i left for basic training, when i finally came home seeing the joy on his face was amazing and now with him being 2 and a half years sober...if he can kick that why cant I do this! A lot of people ive been talking to have all pretty much said i was fucking nuts for doing this at this particular time in life, and i say why not? Im currently deployed and as many of you prior service members would know, this is where you pick up those shitty nicotine habits, but not me! Here are my thoughts on it, I wok 12 hours a day in the blistering heat, if i dont have a can during the day, theres absolutely no way of getting one out to me, and its so scarce here that aint nobody gonna share a pinch! Then after work its straight too the gym for about 2 hours, my new sanctuary, where i will continue to go and work harder at my new addiction to help get rid of the old. After that head to eat and get to bed, a simple life style out here that i find easy to quit in. Also no alcohol cant be drinking for the next 5-6 months, and that was my weak point. Hell i could go through almost 2 cans just in a night at the bar!! Whiskey and Copenhagen, just went together so good! and most off all, it makes sense to me to quit here, and thats all that fucking matters!!
Im ready to sack up and do this! Today is day 1! July 4th 2013, a new stage in my life.
(it is already the 4th out here where im at, im 10 hours ahead so if i ever post roll call late its really the morning for me)
Day 1: Today, time to embrace the suck!
Happy 4th of July everyone!

Hot damn I loved this post!
Welcome to KTC and to FREEDOM! Ring it in buddy! You have so got this.

Thanks for you service Nardo. Congrats on a great decision - especially when excuses are so easy to come by.
I see a hole in your plan. What happens during your 12 hour work day if a can suddenly becomes available? What happens when a comrade hears you've quit and decides that you've earned one of his chews? What happens when you end up at the bar to celebrate _________?
Be prepared. Plan for reality.
Remember your dad. Remember his smile. Post roll first thing every day. When the moment comes - tell yourself: "I've earned this freedom. I may cave someday, but today I'm quit. I am a man of my word. I am free."
Some shit like that. Have a mantra. Something that you can recite and believe when fucked up in 120 degree heat.
You've got this.

Welcome aboard Nardo.
There comes a time in the life of a dipper in which that person says, "what the hell has become of me?" "do I really need this shit to feel normal?". Two cans/night at the bar, I've been there too man. I am excited that are taking a stand and fighting for your freedom. I did the same thing 185 days ago and I must tell you soldier, it changed my life. I will quit with you today.
You picked a great day to quit Nardo. Happy Independence Day and thank you for your service. If you need anything reach out.

The best day to quit is today. The worst day to quit is tomorrow.
You got this shit man. We are here to help you.
Its time to find yourself again bro. The real you. Not the one dependant on posion weeds in a can.
You're gonna like what you find, just like your Dad did. God didn't bring us into this world with a mouth full of posion. We came in clean and addicted only to our mommy's teet.
We've all been you...finger banging a can and chin dippin like a fool THINKING it was enhancing our fun, relieving stress, helping us concentrate, relieving boredom.
All bullshit.
Dip fills no voids in your life, it creates them. The only thing you are relieving when you put a dip in is the withdrawl pang from the last time you spit one out. Its a vicious cycle. I guarantee you don't get any buzz from it anymore, and I bet their are soldiers there who don't use it. If they can do it, why can't you?
YOU CAN.
It will not be easy. The bitch hooks her claws in pretty deep, but they are unhookable, and the freedom on the other side is beyond belief. To be unshackled from the chains of addiction is one of the most beautiful and liberating feelings you will ever feel.
It will take hard work to get there, but we will help you walk the road. We know the pitfalls and forks to take and to avoid.
You need anything at anytime, you hit me up.
Thanks for your service!!!

First off thanks everyone for the support, I can already tell how this is going to help!
Ok, so my first day quit! Fuck yeah! Made it through, killed about a pound of sunflower seeds, had an urge and went straight to the gym. Definitely rough day though especially having the day off where I usually just sit around and would dip my brains out. Just waitin on my smokey mountain now to come in. Got just about one of each can comin in try em all out find a favorite! Anyone know of any other good non tobacco-nicotine dips?
Anyway day 2 today, here comes the real test, no dip at work with all the bullshit I have to deal with on the daily, time to man the fuck up!

dearest nardo (aka badass motherfucker)
You seem pretty fucking set on alternatives. Is this an addiction or a habit?
The best alternative is your strength. What about you makes you a soldier? What's harder - quitting a weed or defending your country? Own this shit. Don't depend on mass produced fake chew - own your individual freedom.
Happy Independence Day.

Nothing more I can add hardly other than to let you know I too am here to support you! Thank you for your service bro, I will quit with you every day man.

Yes. Careful on the fake. I too ordered every brand and flavor under the sun.
Did not like them.
Why? Because they did not contain nicotine.
I settled on using some gummy, hard as hell mint stuff that tasted NOTHING like Kodiak. I did find some that did taste similar but my brain did not like that. So when I got REALLY hard up I'd take a pinch of the nasty gummy shit, just to sooth me. I did not use it for long though.
For me fake didn't do much. Other guys swear by it.
Dont put too much of your eggs in the fake basket. There's better places for them.

Personal preference on the fake Nardo, but personally I'm with Diesel, that shit is nasty and is kind of a dangerous road in my opinion.
When I was in the middle of the fog, (day 2-7ish) I would throw in a pinch of coffee grounds. This was gross too but again I was coming out of my skin and it seemed to give me a little jolt and it gave me something to spit.
I like the gym idea too. Good job on day. Just do whatever it takes to keep nicotine out of your system. These next few days are gonna be uncomfortable, it will get better. Keep your eye on the prize. Remember this shit is life or death Nardo.

All right! The thing I have found that works the best for me is alternating sunflower seeds and gum.. I constantly have something going on. I was USMC infantry and smoked and dipped the entire time and am just now quitting so I got an idea of what your going through. We are here to help you bud. Day two was the worst for me. Go PT your ass off and stay hydrated. It will help.

Welcome bro. Glad to have you here and good decision to take you life back.
I used the fake until I hit the 40's and wanted to be rid of any and everything that looked, smelled, resembled a can of poison in anyway. Saying that,,, I believe the fake was instrumental in my quit. I used smoky mountain. My personal advice,, Use whatever you need to keep the real stuff out. When you don't think you need it anymore you'll get rid of it with no problem. My opinion. Don't beat yourself up about it,, STAY QUIT,,, that's the goal here.
Another tool I've used for a while is toothpicks. I go down to gnc and buy mint oil and make them mintyfresh. I don't buy them cheap $2.50 800 cnt toothpicks either. I use to spend a fortune on dip, so I don't mind buying some good toothpicks. I splurge and get the $4.00 250 cnt toothpicks. They last longer and seem to hold the mint longer. Whenever I get a crave those toothpicks are my go to.
Bottom line brother,, Your main goal is to stay quit. Try not to worry about crap that don't matter. Glad to be quit with you.
-
I'd like to say thank you Nardo for putting your life on the line for the rest of us.
Second, considering where you are in this world and the danger around you, you've made a great decision to eliminate a killer from your life. Get your ass home in one piece. And that ass includes a lower jaw.
There is clearly some thoughtful advice in this thread. Suck it all in. Feel good...feel great about this decision. When you look in the mirror know that the man looking back is whom you want him to be. That's the opinion that matters. That guy is worth more than sticking a pinch of cancer candy in your mouth.
You got this. We've got this. Lot of steel balled and iron will fuckers in this group. I'm personally in love with all of them but I'm not a whore. I just like badass motherfuckers who can see the power in themselves to change.

Fuck ya, i can get used to comin in after a long ass day and seeing all this support! Again i appreciate all the comments, support, critique, advice all of it!
Today sucked, it really did im not going to lie. went through about a bag of sunflower seeds, a BIG bag! but its better than the shit that is used to being there. I think it helped a lot that at work today i was with a non-user and someone that i could talk to all day instead of someone who 1. Uses, or 2. just cant hold a conversation. It was tough, wanted to strangle some people but i got through it! 2 days down!
Now, for all the advice given to me, THANK YOU! the support is amazing and im really finding all this very helpful. I wanna give the fake stuff a go i do, ive heard great, and ive heard terrible things about it. i loved the seeds today they helped out a lot but id still like to give the fake a try on days where i start itchin, but i can make a promise to myself and all of you that if i do for some reason start itchin more because of such similarities, ill dump that shit, ill dump that shit quick!!
2 days, i feel good, i feel real fucking good!

I like the av. Is it you? If it is,, you look like one bad mutha effer. If I was over there I would be scared as hell if I seen you coming.
If the poison knows whats best it'll hit the road to. If you can handle all the stuff you've had to endure then quitting an addictive weed should be nothing. Important thing,, NAFAR ( never again for any reason). Things get better and better one day at a time. Quit with you all day.

Awesome, damn proud of you Nardo. Day 2 in the books. Guard this young quit with your life. The bich lurks and she will try to slam your ass when you least expect it. Get a few numbers from your group, it will pay dividends. I will PM you mine. DO NOT HESITATE TO REACH OUT WITH A TEXT OR A CALL.

As an esteemed member of April 2012 once said, "If you told me I had to get up every morning and cluck like a chicken naked for 10 minutes, I'd do it to stay quit."
Moral of the story, do whatever the fuck you need to do to stay quit. Sunflower seeds, gum, fake dip, anything but going back to the nic bitch.

Your body is clean now... No more Nicotine! You are on your way. Remember to stay busy, stay close to the site, make sure you have numbers of people to call and most importantly have a PLAN..
STAY QUIT

Well done Nardo. Breaking the shackles of nicotine is very difficult but it can be done and it is worth it. You are worth it. This shit is life or death Nardo, stay the course. After you get a taste of freedom you would be a fool to willingly walk back into your prison cell. Remember, no one can put that shit into your mouth but you. You are in control, you have the power, you have the will and the desire, and now you have the tools. Use them.
Quit on,
Ryan

Anyone hear from this guy??
I cannot claim to understand what it is like to be deployed overseas. I cannot imagine the stress of daily life as a soldier and I do not blame this quitter if the stress was too much for him. But man I am very sad this guy is not posting roll. I was pumped up about his quit for some reason.
Oh well, time to move along.

Yo im here! I ususally am on a weird Roll Call schedule, wheni wake up and head to work, around 3-5 am when i usually post roll, im posting late on the day before. So for instance yesterday morning i posted roll at 0500 which was Monday morning for me, but i had to post on the Sundays date the 7th because it was still 7:00 pm PST Sunday when i woke up. So that is why it looks like i havent posted. now heres the tricky part, Im off today and just woke up maybe 10 mins ago and have thoroughly confused my self. Its 9:12 am right now, which is past midnight on the east coast, so some people are already posting for the 9th, if i post it on the 9th as day 6, the day that im on, when i wake up in the morning to go to work and post my day 7 roll call it will look like i posted Day 6 and Day 7 both on the 9th of July....haha confusing as fuck i know!

Bro, I am damn thankful for your service, and yes you are one bad mutha! Glad you got your quit rocking and I wish I would have been as smart as you are at 23. Stick with the site it helps a ton, read and read some more, and don't hesitate to ask for help. As far as alternatives go I was a Fireball and gum guy. I chose Fireballs since they last about 45 minutes and by then I had forgotten why I threw one in.
If you ever need anything don't hesitate to ask. We all owe you guys that are serving and I for one don't mind paying that debt. I'll keep you and your quit in my thoughts and I look forward to seeing you post that you are on your way home nic free.
Stay safe and I am with you in this.

Anyone hear from this guy??
I cannot claim to understand what it is like to be deployed overseas. I cannot imagine the stress of daily life as a soldier and I do not blame this quitter if the stress was too much for him. But man I am very sad this guy is not posting roll. I was pumped up about his quit for some reason.Â
Oh well, time to move along.
Yo im here! I ususally am on a weird Roll Call schedule, wheni wake up and head to work, around 3-5 am when i usually post roll, im posting late on the day before. So for instance yesterday morning i posted roll at 0500 which was Monday morning for me, but i had to post on the Sundays date the 7th because it was still 7:00 pm PST Sunday when i woke up. So that is why it looks like i havent posted. now heres the tricky part, Im off today and just woke up maybe 10 mins ago and have thoroughly confused my self. Its 9:12 am right now, which is past midnight on the east coast, so some people are already posting for the 9th, if i post it on the 9th as day 6, the day that im on, when i wake up in the morning to go to work and post my day 7 roll call it will look like i posted Day 6 and Day 7 both on the 9th of July....haha confusing as fuck i know!

Awesome news Nardo. I am pumped that you are still quit. That just made my day. It seems that every neewbie I have chatted with lately doesnt stick around. I had a feeling who meant business here. Keep kicking it man.
