Title: kdranger introduction
Post by: KDRanger on March 06, 2015, 07:32:00 AM
I'm not sure how to do any of this exactly, the computer stuff. I came to this site through the recommendation of a friend after telling them I wanted to quit. After 28 years of putting that shit in my mouth I figured it was time, after feeling some heart palpitations I knew it was time. I started in high school, really got going in the Army and have not been a day without Copenhagen since. Was up to a 2 can a day habit. Had been cutting down figuring I could just taper off, but after coming to this site and really thinking about it I realized I needed to just dump the shit once and for all.

Well done Ranger..
Great decision and welcome to the suck. But better than the alternative. It's just a matter of time cope would win the battle and kill you.
You can and will get a new life. One with respect and freedom not being governed by a little can.
Remember... It was all a lie.. You do not need poison to function.. Your brain thinks so.. But it is a lie.
Drinking tons of water, Exercise and spend alot of time here at KTC.
Its a decision... But also a decision to work and spend time quiting.
Learn how to post roll asap. Directions are in the welcome center, read 1-4, also instructions on the June 2015 quit group page. That will be your group.

I'll go to work with you.. I quit with you today.

Man, you are doing the right thing. I chewed for a long time too, and never could quit. You can do it if you follow the method here. You will learn the computer stuff just fine if you are motivated to quit. Follow the program here, it works. Read up on the addiction so you know what you are fighting. Build a network here for accountabilty and support. That's what it takes. Nothing else works. It hurts for a while, then it gets amazing over time. Being addicted that long, you honestly have no idea what life it like with out it. Neither did I. Freedom is the goal-- as good as it gets. Come on along!
