Title: Introduction - Knockout
Post by: Knockout on January 10, 2014, 03:46:00 AM
Hello all,

Knockout here (Jesse), 25 years old. Been dipping on and off (mostly heavily on, 2-3 cans a week) for the past 7 years. Routine has been my vice (shower/long commute to school and work/while I'm winding down for bed). Longest hiatus was 8 months, then succumbed to the urge on a road trip with a friend that dips.

Why am I here?: I'm sick of harming my body and being deceived with petty justifications. I'm afraid of where my addiction will have taken me many years from now if I don't confront it. Most of all I'm sick of being a slave to dip, consciously knowing it's power over me and my decisions and letting it own me.

Found this site months ago but passed it over, tried patches, quitting on my own instead, but I gave in. I want to be free of it, once and for all, and I hope the structure and community here will be the aid I need to stay quit.

Trashed my can and all traces from the house. Last dip was 4 hours ago (not long, I know), but I'm here and I'm ready.

KO,

Welcome to the asylum and get ready for the SUCK brother. The next few days will be miserable as you know from your previous quit. Embrace that feeling this time and remember how much it blows, you can use that as motivation to stay quit this time. I am only 52 days in now but I can tell you that for me KTC has given me enlightenment to the problem. Nicotine Addiction! I never really thought about it as an addiction and that hurt my other attempted quits or as we call them here stoppages. You only quit once! You need to remember that you are an addict and any form of nicotine will lead you back to her filthy hold over you, so quit once and for all. I applaud your decision and will tell you that I wish I would have done the same at 25 years of age rather then waiting till 40 years old to figure it out. Post Roll and get your Quit on.

Menace

You have received some excellent advice from some bad assed quitters so far. Now all you need to do is heed it. You can do this and KTC can help you, but you need to own your quit. No one else can quit for you.

Welcome KO. While you're going through the suck, read everything you can in the Welcome Center. Also spend some time reading others' intros because it helps to know that so many of us have gone through the same stuff as you....you just decided it was time to stop sooner.

You can and WILL do this if you keep your promise today to not use nic. Go to bed after a successful day, wake up and repeat. Get involved and hold yourself and your April 2014 crew accountable, it will exponentially increase the chances that your quit holds up.

If you need anything send a PM. I quit with you today.

First off, thank you to everyone who has shown support to me through the first week (especially on chat). My QUIT has been strengthened infinitely because of it.

Today I had a pretty heinous panic attack, which I can count on one hand the number I've had historically. I was invited to a movie with a close friend, and as I've tackled numerous of my old routine dip places, I thought "ok this will be a good test". It was Lone Survivor (let's go to a movie with tons of suspense...great idea), and as soon as I sat down I felt like I got hit by the crave train. My body didn't feel right without it, and I started freaking out. As there was no way to sit still and "wait it out" I went to the restroom, washed off my face and sat down in silence (was dizzy) for a bit to come to my senses. When I returned to my seat I focused on drinking lots of water, and once I was able to turn my focus to the movie all was well.

Scary, might not have been the best idea so early in the quit, but I made it through! Anyone else experienced something similar?

Yeah, I experienced something similar about every time I drove my sales route for a few weeks.

I didn't die. And I didn't cave.

I spent 6 hours in my car today. Had no troubles at all. I felt like a "normal person".

Nice work facing down the demon and coming out on top.

I think you'll do just fine at this.

In other matters, was the film good?

I quit with you today dude
Let's do it again tomorrow

Yeah, do tell. This movie is on my to-see list. I know Hollywood routinely fucks up their portrayal of anything involving the military, combat, guns, etc, but the reviews on IMDB indicated they may have gotten this one mostly right.

Also, Knockout how's you quit going? Haven't seen an update on your page here in a while. We're on the same day, man, and I've found it really helpful to document my journey on my intro page for remind me of what I went through and maybe serve as a roadmap for those that follow. I certainly get a lot out of reading the vets' intro pages, especially those that are updated by the authors frequently.

i chewed the hell out of sugarless gum early on in my quit, that may help with the oral fixation. The crave bus will start coming at you less frequently with time, just take it minute by minute when you have to, all craves pass faster than you realize.

That sounded rough,KO. The important thing is that you used your tools from the group to conquer the crave. Crave will come and go they will vary in strength and duration. That is why it is important to read all the posts that you can. Gain the information that will give you the tools to deal with any situation in the future.... Great battle KO .. you won.

Big win is right! Next time it will be easier, next one easier and so forth. Each trigger you beat makes it easier the next time. The first movie I saw without the poison was hard, but so was everything else I did daily without the poison. It will get easier, trust me.

I always look at it like this: When you are having a bad time look at what you are doing and figure out how the chew helped you before. Take the movie for instance. Did the movie start earlier or end later because you had a chew? Did the chew make the movie better or worse? This can be used for every trigger. You will find that the poison never helped with anything.

Let me make a list of all the good things the poison has done for you.




I'm sorry I got nothing! It will get easier. One day at a time and you can have back a lot of what he poison has stolen. Never again for any reason and you can keep it.

Knockout: I find treating the oral fixation is important in situations like these. Gum, jolly ranchers, seeds. It focuses you a little bit on your mouth instead of your crave.

Movies are hard. I saw Lone Survivor early in my quit too. Great movie, but I remember thinking how stupid I thought Wahlberg looked with a dip in and that allowed me to feel proud of myself.

Way to go getting through it. I quit with you today.

I liked being able to munch on popcorn the whole time when I went to my first movie post day 1. I also had candy and a 2liter soda they call small. Way to fight through it K.O.

Knockout, congratulations on reaching the HOF. Though I'm still relatively new, it seems that every month a few role models of quit emerge. You've been one of those guys since day 1. I look forward to many more +1's of QLF EDD with you.
Like my friend steak said. I knew you would make it to a hundred, and with the tools that you used, I know you will keep a good quit. ODAAT brotha
Proud for you today KO. The first milestone of many to come for one bad ass man of integrity. Welcome aboard Jesse!

Sent this text to a couple of my quitters a few nights ago, amid an end of semester drunken stupor. This summarizes a bit of my approach to KTC. To the vet mentioned early in this wall, you were one of the keys to keeping me quit through the early rough patches, and this is in no way a dig at you.

"I had an interesting conversation with some vets about "owning your quit" tonight. One of the July quitters said "if 'insert name' caved, it would hurt my quit", to which I agreed with the concept. The vet in turn stated I should never say such things, because they allow me an excuse if one of my contacts caved. It got me thinking about the system. The folks with years and years of quit, I'm sure they have had their share of caves that stung more than others. Perhaps not seeing their early friends on roll has desensitized them to close connections. But the quit is unique to each person, no? It's obvious that everyone goes through constant reevaluations of quit, but my connection to those that I quit alongside EDD will never change. I don't expect to talk with both of you on a nightly basis as I did approaching 100. I'm sure there will come a point when it becomes weeks between check-ins, and perhaps a point when someone stops posting roll, but we will always be a team of quit. I am a passionate person, with a circle of friends that, although small, is one which I would do anything for. The Irish concept of "clan". I apologize for the novel, but this celebratory end of semester drunken ramble has a point. I want you both to know that you have been, and will always be a piece of what defines my quit. The term "brotherhood" does not have barriers. That is family. I would not be quit today if I hadn't have had your support and friendship through this shit. The constant reevaluation of quit will probably bring a point where all that I need is the simple placement of my name on that roll, but today is not it. In the moments when my mind brings up nicotine, not letting you two down is one of the most powerful defenses I have. Would one of you caving hurt my quit? You're god damn right it would. G, you reiterated that concept early on, "quit for you". But in the end, how many times did we attempt to just "quit for you" on our own before we got here? My resolve is damn near unbreakable, but I no doubt have a portion that lies within the connection to my closest quitters. /rant over."

Obviously many of the badasses who stick around here have very close connections with others. There is brotherhood among quitters into the hundreds and thousands which I could not even begin to comment on because they have built it in their own way over years.

My point is this: the strongest bonds have no "disconnect". Brotherhood requires trust. We don't quit on our own, we quit together. I understand that this differs from "my quit" as opposed to "your quit", but what is brotherhood if we don't value them closely? If I tell someone that my quit gains strength from having them right there with me, battling the monster, it's hard to see the truth in that statement if the opposite did not cause some degree of harm.

Anyway, I haven't updated this for a while so I'm going to give some shoutouts. I want to thank all of the Resolute Bastards who not only signed up for 200 but have stayed true to their word and continue to post roll EDD. A congrats to all of the Project Mayhem Snowflakes (PMS) who recently hit the Hall and those who are just about to. The strength and bond of your group is awesome to see. To the June Bugs - I've tried to be a positive influence on many of your quits, and can't wait to see you all hit the HOF.

Keep battling all. Stay strong, stay quit, and stay ghey. Much love

Perhaps not seeing their early friends on roll has desensitized them to close connections. But the quit is unique to each person, no? It's obvious that everyone goes through constant reevaluations of quit, but my connection to those that I quit alongside EDD will never change. I don't expect to talk with both of you on a nightly basis as I did approaching 100. I'm sure there will come a point when it becomes weeks between check-ins, and perhaps a point when someone stops posting roll, but we will always be a team of quit. I am a passionate person, with a circle of friends that, although small, is one which I would do anything for. The Irish concept of "clan". I apologize for the novel, but this celebratory end of semester drunken ramble has a point. I want you both to know that you have been, and will always be a piece of what defines my quit. The term "brotherhood" does not have barriers. That is family. I would not be quit today if I hadn't have had your support and friendship through this shit. The constant reevaluation of quit will probably bring a point where all that I need is the simple placement of my name on that roll, but today is not it. In the moments when my mind brings up nicotine, not letting you two down is one of the most powerful defenses I have. Would one of you caving hurt my quit? You're god damn right it would. G, you reiterated that concept early on, "quit for you". But in the end, how many times did we attempt to just "quit for you" on our own before we got here? My resolve is damn near unbreakable, but I no doubt have a portion that lies within the connection to my closest quitters. /rant over."

Obviously many of the badasses who stick around here have very close connections with others. There is brotherhood among quitters into the hundreds and thousands which I could not even begin to comment on because they have built it in their own way over years.

My point is this: the strongest bonds have no "disconnect". Brotherhood requires trust. We don't quit on our own, we quit together. I understand that this differs from "my quit" as opposed to "your quit", but what is brotherhood if we don't value them closely? If I tell someone that my quit gains strength from having them right there with me, battling the monster, it's hard to see the truth in that statement if the opposite did not cause some degree of harm.

Anyway, I haven't updated this for a while so I'm going to give some shoutouts. I want to thank all of the Resolute Bastards who not only signed up for 200 but have stayed true to their word and continue to post roll EDD. A congrats to all of the Project Mayhem Snowflakes (PMS) who recently hit the Hall and those who are just about to. The strength and bond of your group is awesome to see. To the June Bugs - I've tried to be a positive influence on many of your quits, and can't wait to see you all hit the HOF.

Keep battling all. Stay strong, stay quit, and stay ghey. Much love
Awesome, strong post! Thanks!

Today started well. Went to work, was busy most of the day which passed it quickly, and I prepared for an awesome night. Fast forward to the evening, and I took my father to go see "The Book of Mormon" musical down here in San Diego for Father's Day. Although not something everyone has heard of or is interested in, as a non-Mormon who grew up in the Mormon capital of the world (Utah County), this production has been something I have dreamt of seeing since I first heard it was being created years ago. A musical, created by the masterminds behind my favorite show (southpark), poking fun at the religious doctrine that was preached around me night and day during my childhood? Yes! It was fantastic, I laughed until I cried, and I got to spend quality time with the old man.

Then I saw the e-cig ad placed on the windshield of every car.

Broadway Vapors (cunning)

This didn't just piss me off, it almost ruined my night. Barely said a word on the drive home I was so mad. Fuck nic, and fuck those who prey on addiction. If you have a minute, blast the shit out of this number and email address.

Ecigs are maddening. Some of the worst addicts I know hit those things almost every 30 seconds. It is really sad... They talk about how safe it is. What a load of shit.

You got it... Sending an email now!

And I am crazy jealous of the play. It will be here in about a year and I cannot wait to see it!

I got a response from the store! Here is something to fuel your rage a little more... Their intent and purpose is to save lives. What bullshit.

We sincerely apologize, that is not our intent our intent is to help smokers with their addiction to tabacco. as you are aware cigarettes contain over 4,000 carcinogens as opposed to e cigarettes only containing flavoring vegetable glycerin propylene glycol with the option of nicotine or without. We are just trying to create awareness and save lives. we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience

I was hopping a plane about a month ago and there was this group of women waiting for the plane as well. One of them was very obnoxious and you could here her talking from anywhere within a 150 ft radious of her location. I tried noise cancelling headphones but it didn't drown out her voice. It got to the point where it was pretty funny. I decided to move my location to go over and get closer to the action. So I got within about 20 ft and you had this women sitting with her 5 or so friends and she was puffing away on an e-cig. The worst part of it was she was blowing the vapor right into peoples faces and carrying on like she was at a night club. I mean she was literally blowing this vapor right into her friends faces and they were not even blinkin an eye. She puffed on that e-cig the entire 60 minute layover at this airport. And I am sure she puffed on it the remaining part of the day. Pretty dumb if you ask me. It is nice not being led around like a little dog all day looking for the next fix of nic. Years ago Big T fought to not tell the public about the known dangers of using tobacco products and this is just the next phase of the game for those losers. FU Big T.

One badass quitter extraordinaire here in Knockout! New quitters take note- this guy knows that the more involved you get, the better you build your own quit. I knew you were active, KO, but before meeting you in person today i never knew just how much! I'm really glad to have you in my corner, and anyone else who knows how you work would say the same!

Quitters, if you get the chance to meet up with another quitter, DO IT! Swapping stories, strategies, and impressions of how good quit feels with a guy like this face to face makes it all even more real!

Thanks for taking the time to meet up KO- and for all you do helping others quit!

Well, it's been a fair bit of time since I updated this journal, but today was a rough one and I need to vent.

To summarize the scenario, I started the fall semester at school this week. Shortly into my 2 hour stats lecture this evening, it was presented that my professor is a former statistician for R.J. Reynolds.

The fundamentals of this class (charts, graphs, principles) were all presented using data from "teen cigarette brand preferences". Not only did said professor describe tobacco usage as "a complete personal choice", she went so far as to blame parents for the widespread usage of tobacco amongst teens.

It was brutal to sit through the lecture without speaking up. I was torn between my hatred for nic and not wanting to disrespect my classmates with an argument.

Needless to say I will be visiting the professor during her office hours for a chat, but I'm quite aggravated that I signed up for a class taught by someone so close to the industry. A unique opportunity to hear details of her experience there, but it was very distracting.

Agreed ^^^. Even if you could somehow change her perspective, that wouldn't change the system the industry has nurtured over the decades. But you do have a.

Finally a situation worse than having to deal with the stereotypical left wing liberal professors when you believe in the constitution and are a student of critical thinking... Have the conversation if you must, but most people who are detached from reality don't want to hear it (not to mention collage profs (cough power trippin' cough). My advice is just grin and bear it, find out what she wants to hear and repeat it all the way to an A. Oh and plan on hitting the gym after her lectures.

Well, it's been a fair bit of time since I updated this journal, but today was a rough one and I need to vent.

To summarize the scenario, I started the fall semester at school this week. Shortly into my 2 hour stats lecture this evening, it was presented that my professor is a former statistician for R.J. Reynolds.

The fundamentals of this class (charts, graphs, principles) were all presented using data from "teen cigarette brand preferences". Not only did said professor describe tobacco usage as "a complete personal choice", she went so far as to blame parents for the widespread usage of tobacco amongst teens.

It was brutal to sit through the lecture without speaking up. I was torn between my hatred for nic and not wanting to disrespect my classmates with an argument.

Needless to say I will be visiting the professor during her office hours for a chat, but I'm quite aggravated that I signed up for a class taught by someone so close to the industry. A unique opportunity to hear details of her experience there, but it was very distracting.
Send her a copy of Zquitters hof speech.

Then tell her Diesel said to stop preaching about the nic biych and just teach standard deviation and figuring out the probability of shit.

Quit on..
^^^^Exactly....God Grant me the courage to change the things I can, serienty to accept the things I can not change and the wisdom to know the difference.....Have the conversation, but relaize you have having the discussion with part of the machine that denies nicotine is even addictive. Hang tough and quit on....you got a big semester.
Agreed ^^^. Even if you could somehow change her perspective, that wouldn't change the system the industry has nurtured over the decades. But you do have a. Opportunity to learn from a henchman of the enemy for a while- if you can stomach being that close to the evil babble. And I don't know if I could. Thanks for sharing this one- unique as heck.
Just a suggestion Jesse... Do not call her "nic bitch," at least to her face!

College is full of experiences like this. Try to grit your teeth and fight through it. I feel for ya. But I'm glad you aren't contributing to her fat ass pension.
Finally a situation worse than having to deal with the stereotypical left wing liberal professors when you believe in the constitution and are a student of critical thinking... Have the conversation if you must, but most people who are detached from reality don't want to hear it (not to mention collage profs (cough power trippin' cough). My advice is just grin and bear it, find out what she wants to hear and repeat it all the way to an A. Oh and plan on hitting the gym after her lectures.
I like your idea of having a one on one conversation with her. Discuss your battle with Big Tobacco and how hard it was. Perhaps you can open her eyes to a whole new world. Just do so with no perceptive notions or intent. She may gain a new respect for your path as well as your approach in bringing it to her attention. If not well then change classes.

Don't be surprised when you get a blank stare. She is probably so removed from the devastation caused by tobacco that she won't even flinch. She was a number cruncher and marketing data spewer. Probably never smoked... Good luck though. I would give her an earful. Shouldn't have to listen to that crap in college classes...
