Well to whoever is out there, tomorrow is the day. I look forward to joining a quit group and doing this for real! I started chewing six years ago and have been unable to quit since the first dip. It is a part of my life that I am ready to leave behind. I have never told my wife I chew and hide it from everyone in my life besides my co-workers. I hope I will never have to go to the C Store again for a can and waste my money on this pathetic cancer can. All the support that seems to be on here will help greatly. Here is to tomorrow and a new life!

You know what you are right, why not quit now! I just went to the bathroom, opened up my last can, dump all of it in, pissed all over it and flushed it away. I won't lie it was hard to do, but I already feel better about myself for doing it!

Welcome to freedom....you will have to fight for it, but the folks here will help get you through it. My advice is to visit the chat room, post roll every damn day, and take it one day at a time! I'll quit with you!

Welcome to the asylum.
agree with slug 100 percent. You are one of the few lately to say "fuck it" let's do this!!!! Everybody wants to wait til tomorrow. But not you brother. Way to be, now don't let that feeling of being proud of yourself leave. That is a win. You won today. Wake up tomorrow, get your ass on KTC and read. If you can't sleep tonight, get on the internet and read this site. Your wife might think your fooling around, but show her the spousal support link and she will go back to bed. Keep the quit riled up and the fight strong. We will be here each and every day you are here. Your quit has been documented thousands of times already on here. We Know What You are going through. Lets Quit.

We all know how hard it is. The night I quit I cried as I opened and dumped my last 3 cans in the crapper. Main thing, post roll and keep your word. We only deal with today, no yesterday or tomorrow!

Thanks guys! Seeing all of this support is a great help, I have already opened my desk drawer where I used (that feels good to say) keep my can and it was hard to not see it there. But I threw in some bubble gum and got right back to work. I will have to post roll (not sure where to do that) but I am sure I will figure it out.

Thanks again!

Welcome to KTC......a few things

1. This is important to remember, we quit one day at a time or even one minute if needed. Don't worry about tomorrow or next week, just today, just this moment.

2. You/We are Nicotine Addicts and as such there is no such thing as "just one."

3. Post Roll  remember that is your word, our bond, KEEP IT!

4. Be vigilant in your quit, the Nic Bitch never sleeps, so you can't either.

5. KTC will save your life if you apply it. We are here with you in your quit and together we always win if the plan is followed!

I quit with you today Sir!

Great call, man.

As these guys have said, Post roll. Every day. Period. If you are in BFE and simply have no access, text somebody. It's about accountability and consistency. And sharing in both joys and struggles. I'm day 15, and these guys have been lifesavers for me.

As you know, this isn't an easy fight. Don't take it lightly. But don't be ashamed when it puts a hurting on you for fighting back. I know one day my Freedom will be well worth it, as will yours!

Paul

Welcome June Brother. Do as everyone says on here and you will be just fine. The suck will start and end, then it will start again. Just roll through it. I lived on this site the first 4 days of my quit. These are some motivated bad-ass quitters in here to help. Stay free from Nic. Quit with you today. It's a wild ride to freedom from the bitch in a can.

10 days is big. Keep on quitting. I'll warn you, I'm at 13 days and I've been told that the 2 week mark is tough. I'm starting to feel that, myself. Push through. We're all here for you.

Learning to drive: 16 days free of the NIC BITCH! And getting my life back.

I thought I would check back in here and see how far i have come in 16 days. It was great to see all of the support from everyone, even after I had passed 10 days. I guess I will have to check this page more often. Anyways, what have I learned:

1.) Post Roll: Just like everyone says, EVERY DAM DAY , this is what has really been keeping me going. I get up early, make my pledge not to use nic, and go on with my day not even thinking twice about wanting a chew.

2.) When times get tough, fall back to KTC: Whenever I am feeling like I need to cave, I hop on here for ten minutes, look up some cancer pics, PM some friends, and look through roll for the day, by the time I get all that done, the craving is gone.

3.) Learn to Hate, and I mean HATE, the can: This has been a big one for mean. As soon as I dumped my last can in the shitter and I knew right then and there the easiest way for me to quit was to hate what I loved for so long. I look at the cans behind the counter at the C-Store now like a big pack of cheating ex-girlfriends whores. They are not even worth a second look, because they will just keep bringing me down. Hate the can and let the can hate you!

Keep up the stong quits everyone and as always I quit with all of you today!

MT man,
You might be just learning to drive your quit but if you keep this shit up you will be flying soon. You totally get it and I am proud to be quit with a fellow Big Sky man. Even though I sadly now live on the coast with all the fruits and nuts as Pinched puts it. Quit on my Brother! 'oh yeah'
P.S.Keep the updates coming!

Of Legal Drinking Age: 21 days free of the NIC BITCH!

I am currently on day 22 but thought I would post again and fill you all in on how the first three weeks are going. I am staying strong and still nic free. I had some tough cravings in my third week of quitting but I got past them. Just like all the advice says, the cravings are only temporary. Chew some bubble gum or go do something for 10 minutes and the craving will be gone. Also I would like to give a big shout out to rdad for the support, it really does mean a lot to see his post every day on JuneÂ’s roll call. I am getting to know a few more people on the site and today a fellow June quitter PMÂ’d me and it turns out he lives in the next town over. It is really a small world. Stay strong everyone and stay quit. I will continue to quit with each and every one of you ODAAT!

Keep your quit to the grind and you will notice that life actually is better when you are not under the influence of tobacco and nicotine.

I never wanted to be a quitter at anything but I am damn proud to say I am a crutch free quitter with the help of KTC.

Keep it up and remember that every additional day you post is adding up and eventually it will become a big number that will be impressive, but none the less every day we al start out the same way...adding another +1.

Day 30 – Wow how time flies!

I can hardly believe it has already been thirty days. I am really enjoying the freedom from the nic bitch. I love driving by all my old C-Stores where I used to pick up a can and think that I will never have to do that again, and waste my money. I went fishing this past weekend, it was hard without a chew, but at the same time so much better. Everything in life is getting back to normal for me and it feels really good to not have chew cans secretly stored all over the house and spending all my free time wondering if my wife is going to find them or not. Take care everyone, stay quit and I quit with each and every one of you today!
