Here I am.....
Three days into probably my 20th "quitting" attempt.....this time, it has to be done...
Ever since 1999.....15 years......Jesus....The bear in the green can has had me by the balls with a vice like grip....unrelenting...
I'm in pain....I can't remember a place that I didn't have a dip in....from the minute I finished my coffee in the morning, until that last late nightcap...
Hell, I can't even remember when all this crap started.....we used to call it "busting a fatty" back in college. Unfortunately, I developed a reputation in the friends circles as being married to my sweet Kodiak. Not really the reputation you want for yourself, as most people realize what a terrible habit it is.....
I've been through about everything probably everyone else has....mouth sores, cavities, crowns, sore throats, etc....going through some jaw soreness right now.....I visit the doctor next week. Praying that it's TMJ or something associated with constant oral movement/spitting. hopefully my mouth is just getting used to being "normal" again....
Needless to say, I'm frightened, but have all the confidence that these are withdrawal symptoms and not lingering effects of long term dipping. My jaw and muscles are more used to having a dip in rather than eating and talking...
I could go on and on, but there's no use dwelling on the situation now...I've had my opportunities to quit and now I'll face the consequences....guilt sometimes overwhelms me, but my wife is very supportive, despite riding my ass for years about quitting....
I have two daughters, 17months and 5 years, and I'd like to be around for them....
Glad I found a place to vent....hopefully someone understands......

Gmunz welcome to being QUIT. Welcome to KTC. There are going to be some BAQ (Bad Ass Quitters) that are going to come on here into your intro and help point you in the right direction.
A couple things:
1.) it's not a habit- it's an addiction. you are a nicotine addict, as we all are on this site
2.) it's going to get worse before it gets better but it will get better
3.) drink A LOT of water, instead of reaching for your spit cup reach for your bottle of clean fresh water- it'll help flush your system and keep you hydrated as you battle the withdrawal
4.) post on your intro- use it as a daily or weekly log so you can revisit it and look back at how bad this shit was
Because you are a dad you need to read this, read it all:
topic/1008859/1/ (http://forum.killthecan.org/topic/1008859/1/)
Because you have a scare about having your tongue and jaw cut out read this:
topic/1008847/1/#new (http://forum.killthecan.org/topic/1008847/1/#new)
Read everything you can on this site and quit like you mean it every damn day. Use LIVE CHAT, read intros and HOF speeches, post roll every damn day. OWN YOUR QUIT.
PM me if you want my digits. I've been through the mouth issues.
Quit on.

Welcome to the family bro. Great introduction by the way. We've all been there. It's an ugly addiction it's time to MAN up. FMBM707 nailed it on the head. Read, read, read exercise. Drink water read some more. Reach out to us let down your guard. This quitting thing isn't for the birds. You gotta want it. We will help you if you make yourself available. Here's to a life full of FREEDOM.
-
Learn the plan here. Live the plan here. Don't chump out on your little girls. They will hate their dead Daddy. PM me if you want my #. I understand some stuff about the jaw pains, etc.

So, each time you try to quit and fail, the next time is harder. You are going against the stream big time my friend. IF you try to do this on your own you will be just a fleeting memory here at KTC. Nobody will remember you or care who you were, and you will someday lose your tongue or jaw or face or all three, and your family will think of you as a week person for not being able to quit something so silly.
BUT if you follow this program and commit to it, and let the KTC brothers help you and you in turn help them, then you my friend are going to make the best decision of your life. Sound good? Adhere to the following:
1. Post roll everyday of your life. No internet? Tough! Reach out to your cave list (see #2). This is the most important part of your quit, and is the cornerstone. You post first thing in the morning. Before doing anything you post roll. I call it Wake n Roll. Wake up and post roll. If you aren't able to commit to posting roll daily then I advise you to stop reading this and just go ahead and buy another can, cause you'll be right back at it a month.
2. Get a few numbers of bros in your quit group who you can call or text should you find yourself ready to cave, or need someone to post roll for you. These guys are there to talk you down. Drinking to much, and out running with the boys, and feel the need to sling some poison in your lip? Call one of your quit bros to talk you down.
Those two steps are the beginning. If you want to quit, and you are willing to follow the program, you will quit. This place will work for you. So, are you willing to commit to it? I hope so. I look forward to seeing you in HOF someday my friend. Good luck to you, and welcome!

Welcome Gmunz.
Glad you could make it today.
We quit everyday. ODAAT. (one day at a time).
You can do this the KTC way.
Read everyday in here, make some friends.
Get real serious about this poison. Know that you're an addict, plain and simple.
Post roll EDD your feet hit the floor
Honor your word
Wake and repeat.
20000 can't be wrong. 'boob'

Super introduction...but where are you now? You need to post roll. Without it your 20th time will be your 21st... Go to the top of this page then click the "community" link, then click the "welcome center" link then click "how to post roll". I'd link them myself but I'm on a cell phone. You've gotten way too much good advice above to flake out.
-
You say you are pain dude, so join up and stop being in pain. It will suck until it doesn't, then you'll wonder why you ever started. Step up and post roll.
-
Still doing well after 5 days. I've had some intense cravings, but have been so busy at work I was able to shake them. The weekend is scary for sure.....
-
Post fucking roll! All the instructions to do so have been written for you. Stop using this site like it's your dream journal and get with the program!
-
Listen to these guys brother! We can type all we want but you got to want to quit more then we want you to. You can be a badass who has chosen to kill the can and honor that by posting roll every damn day or you can be a can't hack it pannywaist who's pussy whipped by a can of cancer candy. It takes a strong person to quit and if you'll invest in this site you can be on of the strong who was able to dance with the devil and walk away. Be that strong person and embrace this quit and own it, learn to live free of the can and enjoy that freedom. I promise you once you experience that freedom you will not want to return to dipping

Wow... Quotes like this drive me away....I'm fine...this is not a "dream Journal"....just wanted to share what was going on but apparently that's not allowed unless I "post fucking roll"...
Thanks but no thanks guys and gals ....

Bye then, sorry a proven method and 30 seconds of your day is too much to save your life. Say hi to the rainbow shitting unicorns in your dream world for me!

GMunz,
If, in your mind you REALLY want to quit, you are at the fucking thrusthold GM...today is my 100 day quit, that's right, my friggin "Hall of Fame" day and you can bet your sweet ass I'm going to be posting 101 tomorrow. Posting roll is the ticket to this quit machine. These Vets have seen it all, but serving notice and calling it like they see it is the only way things work around here. You can do this dude. Post roll and you'll have more support at your beckon call than you'll ever imagine. It takes a tough guy and a tough skin to quit this addiction (remember it's an addiction, not a habit). Read the welcome... POST ROLL and I'll quit with you every dam day(EDD)!

Gmunz - I see you were just reading in the Welcome Center. That is great, there are incredible resources there and everywhere on this site. There is a method to the madness here though and it's posting roll. You have to convince yourself that you are an addict the same as all of us are. This site saved me and the key to it all is posting roll. There is tons more like getting phone numbers and texting people in your quit group but it all starts and ends with posting roll.
There is no reason to get offended - we all just want for you to be quit. If you stick around and get with the program you have a chance. If you don't then that success percentage drops to almost zero.
-
Dude has my number, we'll see what's up.
-
Gmunz - nice work posting roll. This is just the beginning. The freedom from this shit on your fingertips.
I also forgot to mention that Kodiak was my dirtweed of choice as well. I kind of feel a kindred spirit with people on here who quit Kodiak. We sometimes romanticize our former dip of choice but the quicker you can get that shit out your head the better. There is nothing romantic about Kodiak - you were addicted to nicotine and Kodiak was the delivery system - nothing more. Learn to despise that fucking bear. Check out my sig quote. I got a kick out of it early on in my quit.
I'm gonna send you my digits. Hit me up if you need anything.

Shit, you actually posted roll AND I read a constructive comment from you on another intro page. Despite your early sensitivity, you might actually have some badassery in you. Good stuff Gmunz. Remember this equation Accountability + Brotherhood = Success. The answer to this equation all starts with the roll post. As you keep reading I'm sure you're learning that this is the cornerstone of quitting, and the price of admission here at KTC. Posting roll is your word. Your promise. The method only works and only has worth if you post roll. That's why you were pressed so hard up front.
At the end of the day, despite the tough love you may find, we all share a common goal. To be quit. We want that for us and we want that for our brothers and sisters. It starts and ends with posting roll.

Thanks for the kick in the nuts, actually...
Everyone with an addiction is also quick to put up the gloves...
Im here to stay quit....My inbox is busy, to say the least.......and that tells me that this might not be some crappy corner of the internet after all....
Folks really care about helping other folks kick this nasty shit....

Good job posting roll GM. Everyone is here to help, but will have no problem kicking you in the sack if you miss posting roll. Wake up, piss, post roll. You got that. See you tomorrow and I'm quit with you.

Whoa I did not expect to wake up and see this. Tells me that you have a sack GMunz. I definitely tried to give you a kick in the ass but it wasn't personal. If you re-read your intro you kept posting your thoughts followed by some very serious quitters giving you advice, followed again but your thoughts, which was telling me you were way more interested in telling your journey (normally not a bad thing) then heeding their advice and figuring out how this site works. But now that your in....welcome and good luck. You can continue with the dream journal without any further shit from me.

Focus on once day at a time- that's all you have to do. Post your promise (roll) early and be a man of your word for 24 hours. Keep reading stuff on the site. Go back to the post or stories that resonated with you. You got this.
PM me if you need digits.
Glad you stuck around- it'll be worth it.
Quit on

Gmunz - the kick in the nuts is a beautiful thing if it works. I came in like a total pussy in my intro and was rightly called on it by some bad ass quitters. It shook me up but was exactly what I needed.
Needless to say I haven't looked back.
Proud to quit with you today

Keep posting roll and don't put shit in your mouth
It's that easy man.
A lot of quitters posting opinions on your intro. These people care about you. Do not let them down. Get it?

I've tried Smokey Mountain twice this weekend......it tastes like horse shit, which is probably a good thing....
Actually, what works better for me is shoving like 6 pieces of extra in my mouth and then occasionally packing my gums like I would a dip...
For the most part, the nic withdrawal symptoms are ebbing, but there's still this "heavy feeling", which is weird. I guess it's still the old body getting used to NOT having any poison coursing through it.
Good weekend for the most part....stayed busy, spent time with the family....chewed a lot of gum.. :D
Very proud of myself for lasting a week......now lets make it another.
I really shocked the hell out of myself when I was able to walk into some of my favorite convenience stores (where the clerks actually grabbed a couple of cans and had the waiting for me when I walked up to the counter....sad, I know) and didn't even cave....I was glad to tell those folks thanks, but no thanks....hell yes!!!
'Remshot' KODIAK

Keep it up GMunz and don't worry about another week take it one day at a time or as we say around here ODAAT. Makes it a lot easier and keeps your mind focused on staying quit today. Glad to be QLF with you today

Today I cleaned out 87 empty cans of Kodiak from my top dresser drawer....I used to empty my pockets and put my change, keys, dip cans, wallet on my dresser....i guess some migrated into the top drawer...
Some of the statistics:
That makes up for about 2 months of dipping for me. Just two months. I had a 15 year addiction......wow...
A can of Kodiak at my favorite store cost 4.23 w/tax.....2 months - $368.01
One year - $2208.06....thats just doing the math. I was a much heavier user during football weekends, vacations, road trips, holidays, etc.
So, Id figure around a $2500/year addiction.....HOLY SHIT....really hits home when you think of it that way.
Nearly $40,000 spent on Kodiak Wintergreen in 15 years. Jesus H....
Im quit today.....Im quit forever.....today was epic, in a way. The realization of what Im doing for myself by tossing this shit out of my life.....8 days in and Im staying as busy as possible. I dont always get to the roll call in the AM, but I get to it eventually....every day.
Keep truckin!

First off, congratulations on hitting that 1 week mark. I think we all recognize how big an accomplishment that really is and you should be proud of yourself. I still want to see that roll call be part of your morning routine (wake up, piss, post) but I will acknowledge that your promise at 8:00AM is just as valid as your promise at 1:00PM.
Keep it up G money.

You got this man. Keep posting roll. Keep the shit out if your mouth. Keep doing what you are doing.

Whew....been a while since I've posted in my intro...
17 days in. Im super proud....have been through some mean cravings, but all facial pain is GONE!!!!! Wooot!!!
Had me scared as hell, though. Still going to follow through with my physician this Thursday and a "tweener" dental appointment next week for additional checkup and cancer screen.
I have to do this, otherwise, not knowing will drive me insane.
Thanks for all the kicks in the nuts recently, as well as emails. I was at a trade show 3/4 of the way across the country and because of the work schedule, didnt get to roll every day.
I realize that every excuse is a lame one, so I really have nothing else to say but "COME ON GMUNZ!!!! SACK UP AND POST ROLL!!!!!!"
THis is the hardest thing Ive ever done in my life, but just over two weeks in and I haven't touched the bear. Weekends are difficult, so if im really itching, I go grab a can of Smokey Mountain. That stuff tastes like dog nuts, but I still haven't completely shaken the oral fixation.
Ill be back more often.....thanks for reaching out, for those who did, when I slipped on roll there last week.
Today IM QUIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THis is the hardest thing Ive ever done in my life, but just over two weeks in and I haven't touched the bear. Weekends are difficult, so if im really itching, I go grab a can of Smokey Mountain. That stuff tastes like dog nuts, but I still haven't completely shaken the oral fixation.
Ill be back more often.....thanks for reaching out, for those who did, when I slipped on roll there last week.
Today IM QUIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice post. You're doing well. Find a way to post roll EDD no matter what. I'm quit with you today.
Congrats Gmunz. 17 days is no joke. I remember pounding my chest on my intro page when I was 20 days quit. I also remember a bunch of vets telling me to buckle down because the next 3 would weeks suck....they were right. It won't be as hard as the first 3 weeks but the craves don't stop and that is depressing. But keep doing what you are doing and you'll get through it. Don't get lazy on roll call, and good luck.

Whew....been a while since I've posted in my intro...
17 days in. Im super proud....have been through some mean cravings, but all facial pain is GONE!!!!! Wooot!!!
Had me scared as hell, though. Still going to follow through with my physician this Thursday and a "tweener" dental appointment next week for additional checkup and cancer screen.
I have to do this, otherwise, not knowing will drive me insane.

Good job Mister!
When the going gets tough, keep going!
You will never regret being quit and kicking craves to the curb.
I quit with You today.
Craves will lessen, I promise.
Learn to hate the poison for what it really is.
Let go and surrender to the quit EDD and ODAAT.

Dude, I know you have my number, so unless you are on Mars there is no excuse not to post roll.
Example of text:
"Thumble, GMunz here, post me up in "month x"......" It's not hard.
Glad you are quit, but roll is the cornerstone here.

Made it 90 days.....now pushing for 91....
Never thought it would be this hard. I've been slack on roll, but managed to get back for milestones.
Need to get back on the roll regularity.

Way to go Gmunz! I'm looking forward to hitting your date. Keeping you in my thoughts.
