Hello everyone. I just started today. It has been hell, but I am just trying to make it to bed without taking a chew. I am using 4mg nicorete gum, because I just needed to. Not sure if that makes me weaker or looked down upon. Either way, I do feel like today is the first day of the rest of my life. I have been chewing 2 cans a day for 19 years now. Just typing that makes me embarrased and sick to my stomach. I hope someone reads this and can offer me some encouragement. Thank you.

The encouragement you'll get right now is to flush all that gum down the toilet. This is a no nicotine site and method. Period. Until you're free of it... You're not quit in any way, shape, or form.
Join us! Quit for real. Cold turkey. It'll suck for awhile but, hell, you dipped for 19 years. Healing won't happen overnight. But... It will happen. The freedom from nicotine is like nothing you can fathom right now. Take the first step bro... Flush that gum, burn your patches... Any kind of nicotine must go. Then... We can start this quit right!

VBE,
This is a non-nicotine site. Here, we quit cold turkey. The fast that you are using gum or patches just elongates the amount of time that you will go through withdrawl. It's going to take 72 hours to eliminate all nicotine from your system whether is from a dip, chew, gum, or patch.
If you want to quit with us, you will toss the gum, and flush any remaining cans or pouches that you have lying around. And I do mean flush them down the toilet and trash the can. Do not toss them out full as you will be tempted to just go dig them out.
You can do this cold turkey. Everyone on this site, everyone who you see in posting a number in a quit group, has done it. You have 3 days of suck where your body will wreak havoc on you. Then some mind games for a week or so, then you start to normalize out. I'm not going to sugar coat it. It is not easy.
However, it is simple. When you decide to dump the gum and go zero nicotine, you are welcome to join the July '14 quit group. You are in that group because you are considered a hall of famer at 100 days. Sometime in July you will hit that 100 day mark. YOU WILL NOT BE CURED. THERE IS NO CURE FOR ADDICTION.
However, here, we quit one day at a time, or ODAAT. Do not worry about watching basketball tomorrow w/o a dip, or mowing the lawn or doing landscaping this weekend w/o a dip or chew. Worry about the day that you are living today. That is all you can control and that is all YOU WILL CONTROL.
You will have the full support of this site as soon as you spit the gum out. We cannot not will we help or support you with nicotine in your system.
When you make that choice to go cold turkey and get the symptoms of withdrawl over with sooner than later, I suggest you read a few things. Read them slowly. Let them digest as you won't be thinking clearly. Take your time, ask questions.

index.php?showforum=13 (http://forum.killthecan.org/index.php?showforum=13)
As i'm the first person (at least I think i'm the first) to offer you some encouragement, I can tell you the only think we encourage is for you to spit the gum out and do not use it anymore. Once you do that, you will get more support quitting cold turkey than anything you have done in your life. 717 days ago, I was in your position. I was dipping 1.5 cans of Copenhagen a day, slowly committing suicide, one day at time. Finally I wised up, and I hope you do the same.
Once you've done that, read the links I've included, find your way to July 2014, and post your day 1.
Do not continue to allow yourself to be enslaved by a plant. Your life revolves around what a company in North Carolina puts in a pouch or a can. Free yourself, put your name on the list as a quitter (of all nicotine, including the gum) and start fresh.
My name is Mark and i'm quit with you today, the second you spit the gum out for the last time.

Take it from someone who is still pretty new to this. I didn't think I could do it either. All you have to do is get rid of all that shit and buy into the system here. It works. If I can do it, I'm sure you can too.

I did the same thing as you but I was using the patch, got called out for it just like you, luckily I took the advice you have been given. I am on day 332 of freedom from any form. You can do this! Go look up and read my intro thread. Throw it out and we will quit with you.

The first few days without Nicotine will suck. Trust me, I've been there. I'm on day 26 without nicotine and I feel so much better not having it in my life.
Throw the gum out and use the tools that are in place on this website. Post roll to commit to not using nicotine in any form today. Reach out to people and exchange phone numbers so that you can keep each other accountable. Embrace the suck. It's worth it to take your life back.

I am just trying to make it to bed without taking a chew.
This statement ^^^^ is where i was over a year ago. All I had was hope, try and eventually give up. I had no idea that it was possible to QUIT! Right now your believing lies. Your trying, wishing and wanting. To uncover the lies you must get rid of the poison. ALL FORMS!
What you don't realize is quitting is up to YOU! Its a decision that is being hid from you. You are addicted to one of the most addicting drugs known to man and the hardest part of quitting is believing you can do it. There is 1000's that have used this site/ forum to successfully quit. We use each other, accountability, determination and drive my friend. How about you trash your stash and join us that are now free. Your move.
-
Do you want to quit or do you want to be able to tell yourself that you tried and you just couldn't do it? If you want to quit jump in with both feet - start with the welcome center, follow with a flush of all nicotine, follow with: post roll, keep your word, repeat.
Everyone who has taken time from their loved ones/work/tv time etc... gives a shit and there are a lot more of us around than have posted so far. To get the full support offered by users of KTC you have to show us you WANT to be here - flush your nic and quit. Any questions - ask them here - someone will take the time to give you an answer.

Stop postponing, quit nicotine today if your serious.
-
whats the story here? seriously that gum tastes like a dirty hooker's ass anyways...whats the point? Would you use crack to quit cocaine? Think about it!
-
When I was younger I had a dream of being a millionaire. Then I planned how to make that happen...I will be damned if Ed McMahon never dropped by with that check from Publisher's Clearing House still.
In lieu of continuing to plan I decided to start my life, learn some skills, get a job and start saving what I can when I can.
I would highly recommend that you look at your quit the same way. Decide that today is day 1, post roll, dump your stash and then come back for more.
By making a plan you are also allowing time for your brain to come up with an escape plan. Jump on into the quit Kool-Aide feet first in lieu of just dipping your toe in the water.
If you would like to discuss it more or via the phone I would be happy to talk with you. Send me a PM let's exchange numbers and make this dream a reality!

Well, did you make it through the night? Are you going to quit today? Take Pinched up on his offer. Throw out the gum, Jump into this with both feet. You're already sufferring-- it'll be over quicker if you just jump in and get through it. Lot of help and support from some real badasses here who will have your back if you are ready. Just do it. It feels AMAZING to be free! I was hooked for 30+ years, never could quit until i came here. Now I"m never going back. Join me!

Hello everyone, it's me. Well, first of all I want to apologize for not realizing that this is a nicotine free site. Last night when I posted, I was simply crying out for help. I really appreciate the support that I have received from members of this site. The good news is that I did not take a chew yesterday, for the first time in years. I have spent considerable time reading posts and articles throughout the site. It has helped me. Where I am right now is that I have not taken a chew or a nicorete gum piece since last night. It's a bit past noon right now in California, and I am struggling big time. I didn't do roll call because the truth is I still kept some gum. Sorry but it's the truth. I haven't used any of it yet today, but I really don't know if I will or not. Maybe I should talk to Pinched on the phone later on today, if I make it that far without using the gum. One thing is for sure, I am not going to chew today. I feel dizzy and sick to my stomach, and I can't concentrate on anything, but I am just trying to take it hour by hour to make it to the end of the day. So I will let you guys know if I end up making it through a day with no nicotine, and if I do, then hopefully I will still be welcomed here, because I know it could really help me.
-
Just quit right now. Toss the gum.....toss the cans.....not in the trash....down the crapper and flush!
Post roll! You came here to post a second time that to me means you are serious. Prove it and post roll call.

Don't wait until tomorrow to quit and post roll call.
I was a bitch like you and used gum a few days it only makes it harder.
Man up and do it now.
Buy in to KTC.
It's a system...a process..a brotherhood.
I doubt you are any more addicted than the rest of us...
So lets go!!!

Do you ever make decisions in life? This is your moment. Man or mouse?

We do not Hope or Try around here. We quit, plain and simple. You must have the right attitude to quit though. At first it will suck BIG TIME but then, It Won't. I am on day 28 and feel a crapload better than I did a week or two ago. The road was bumpy as hell but the ride is so worth it. The decision is ultimately yours. Do you want to be quit or not? If so, Welcome to the nut house. Join in on the conversation and Post Roll daily. If not, hopefully we will see you back here when you are ready.

Brother... listen.
I chewed for 25 years. 2 cans a day easy. I was spending $400+ a month. Every waking moment was spent worrying about having enough, finding time to do it, thinking of ways to hide it, etc. There wasn't a year of my adult life that wasn't run by nicotine. Not one year. You're no more addicted than I was/am.
April 17th, 2013 was my day 1. Quit. Cold turkey. Fought like a bastard and, sick as it sounds, enjoyed every moment of it. It was tough as hell but... I win. Every day. For 345 days straight today.
I win.
You can too. You're stronger than you think you are.

We can't quit for you - if we could your fight would already be over. We can give you support and a proven method of quitting dip - it's yours if you want it but the price is your word - your roll call post is your promise. That's all this place with all of the tools and support offered costs - your promise to yourself and to us that you won't use nicotine. Come back and let us know if you want in, post roll then pop back in here and let us know it's a done deal!
Edit: run through my intro and the intros for some of the other guys who have reached out - we've all been right there - too damn afraid that we might fail to give our word to a bunch of strangers. We all made the jump though and the strangers have turned into brothers - I'm tellin' ya, this is a special place - jump in with both feet.

You're getting good advice from some badass quitters. Don't ignore it! Listen to what these people are telling you. Flush ANY FORM of nicotine, NOW! Having it around is just temptation to use. You've been quit now for roughly 24 hours. If you chew a piece of gum, you piss away those 24 hours, and then it's hello 72 hour detox, again! I've been quit for 33 days, that means 33 days of no chew, no cigars, no ecigs, no nic gum, not shit! Ya, it's going to suck fat dick right away, grow a pair and meet the suck head on. Every hour you're quit during the suck, hell every minute you're quit, is a minute you never have to experience again, if you chose not to. This is life or death man, the time is now! Seize the opportunity you've been given and take these vet's advice! Need anything, inbox me!

I have posted roll. I have decided that I will beat this beast. It will be the hardest thing I will ever have to do, but I will do it. I will be relying on your guys support. Thank you to those of you that helped me see the light. I have not had any gum today, no chews today. I know the road ahead is going to be hell, but from what I have read, freedom is worth it. I need the support from my brothers now, as I have started the journey. Thank you.

Congrats on making the decision!
Very important: make sure and post roll every morning first thing. That's you ensuring your quit for the day. Also, make some friends.
I quit with you today.

Way to go! You are now on your way to freedom. Nicbitch will fight back but you will win with perseverence. This method works- everyone here is proof of that. Follow the method here as best as you can. Get thru tonight, quit again tomorrow. It gets better fast once you get it out of your system.

So here I am, 18 hours in with no nicotine. 42 hours no chew. Day 1 in the brotherhood. I am very happy and impressed with the outreach and support I have gotten so far. I am worried about my resolve. I already am feeling the tough physiological withdrawal symptoms. I am starting to go crazy. I can't think straight, have a hard time focusing. The only thing that I have been doing is chewing on sugar free gum, just to be clear the gum I am chewing today has no nicotine in it. Any advice or encouragement from vets that have gone through the first 72 hours? I will take anything I can get at this point. I am just trying to make it another 6 or so hours until bedtime.

Exercise, drink water, exercise!!! Anything from running, waking, biking, swimming, push-ups, sit-ups etc. there is no magic fix for "the suck". Get in chat if possible....remember to be pissedat the right thing....tobacco....you have got to want it and fight for it

Read all you can on the site. Learn about the addiction and what to expect. See your story in the stories of other quitters. Get some exercise, breathe deep, do whatever it takes! You can do it!
Also try the chat here- lots of guys like that!

drink water, lots of it. I've also had a few guys say they liked 100% cranberry juice - not the stuff next to kids juice but the health food store kind. exercise, sleep, get laid, read more here - do anything but put nicotine in your face. Embrace the suck - remember how bad it is and never do this again - make this your quit.

read, drink water, spit seeds, chew gum, beat off, repeat. The first 3 days are the worst physically. It sucks, but absolutely relish the pain you are feeling right now. In a very short amount of time, it will pass and you will start healing. Best thing I read in the first day of my quit was that cravings only last a max of 3 min. Get a watch and time it next time. You can fight off a 3 min crave....
There aren't any shortcuts from here. Stay hydrated, stay active and remember that you're being 4874633894 times the ass you think you are being so be on your best behavior with the rest of the world and rage to us. We can take it.
If you want to rage personally, shoot me a pm and I'll give you my digits. I can yell, scream, argue, name call, insult with the best of them.
You are going to take your life back. ODAAT, you will do it.

Well, I am 15 minutes away from the first 24 hours of nicotine free living that I can remember in who knows how long. The mind is foggy, can't concentrate, face, jaw, lips are throbbing, but my resolve is strong.
I just went to the chatroom and got help from a bunch of guys that helped me get through the last couple of hours. Those guys made me dump the rest of my copey snuff in a toilet and flush that shit down the drain. They made me take a pic and send it to them. I did it. They were proud.
I am going to try and get some sleep now, and welcome any support that may come through this thread as I venture onto day 2. I made it through day one fellas, still can't believe it. Tomorrow is another day, another fight, one day at a time. I feel like with the help of my new found brothers, I can take on the challenge.
I will be posting as much as possible from this thread as a sort of diary or journal, in hopes of getting support from others, and providing inspiration to those that may need it. Stay tuned for some real shit to be written. The journey has only just begun...

These next couple of days will be rough, but you can do it. stay close to KTC. and get some numbers.

Well, I am 15 minutes away from the first 24 hours of nicotine free living that I can remember in who knows how long. The mind is foggy, can't concentrate, face, jaw, lips are throbbing, but my resolve is strong.Â
I just went to the chatroom and got help from a bunch of guys that helped me get through the last couple of hours. Those guys made me dump the rest of my copey snuff in a toilet and flush that shit down the drain. They made me take a pic and send it to them. I did it. They were proud.Â
I am going to try and get some sleep now, and welcome any support that may come through this thread as I venture onto day 2. I made it through day one fellas, still can't believe it. Tomorrow is another day, another fight, one day at a time. I feel like with the help of my new found brothers, I can take on the challenge.Â

Hey bro, let's be calm and rational for 35 seconds. You are thinking that just one pinch can solve your problems. Your gums will not hurt, your tongue won't feel like a filing rod, and your mind will return to normal. That is the Nic Bitch telling you all of that. That is how "they" keep you coming back for more. That is how they line their wallets, with your addiction and ultimately your death. See, this is nothing more than the best money scam going. Just imagine if you could have a 10 million dollar mansion and have someone else pay for it. Well, "they" figured out how to do that. Provide a product that "addicted you" to it and paid off lawmakers to keep it legal. Tax the shit out of it and everybody wins. Except for the addict, you can die. There will be plenty more behind you, you're not special. So, every time you step into that store and throw a five on the counter, just remember you are agreeing to be taxed, proliferated and murdered, all with your money and your blessing. You "OK" this when you lay down your cash.
I want you to suppose for a minute that I walk up to you. Look you in the eye and tell you I'm going to kill you, slowly. I'm going to make you spend thousands of dollars in doctor and hospital bills, I'm going to orphan your kids, make your spouse go at life alone or find another mate. I'm going to take your families money and feed my family with it, also, junior wants a convertible to drive to Harvard. I need some new addicts to pay for that car and his education, you top the list. I need your money addict.
How would you feel about me? Would you do business with me? Would you buy my product? Would you want to kill me? Would you at least stand up for yourself and your family?
Well, I say Fuck Them, you're not taking my money, much less my life without getting the fight of your life. In fact I would rather die on my own accord than let you kill me. It's me or you motherfucker, and I'm not going to lose. All I have to do is Not Dip and you lose. That's it. You are not getting another penny from me you son of a bitch. Not a fucking penny. You will not make me withdraw, you will not make me crave, you will never make me kneel at your alter ever again. I'm in control, not you. I'm pissed, and I'm armed with quit. Fuck you and heed warning I'm out to do to you what you threatened to do to my children. Your on notice tobacco CEO. I'm fucking quit and I will never again let you treat me like a whore.
That might have taken more than 35 seconds, sorry. Hope you get where I'm coming from.

Listen to Mogul. Fuck being a sucker for the biggest money scam on the planet. Way to lay it out plainly.

You know what day 2 tells me. That's two days you haven't went down to the corner store and spent your hard earned money on the filthy disgusting poison. That's two days you have demonstrated you love yourself, family and friends more than the poison. that's two days you are free. Smell it, taste it and feel it.
Two days means you can damn sure make it three. Lets post up and make it another day, i'll quit with you.

Not to hijack your anything but Mogul just wrote some of the most prolific shit i've ever read on here...i hope it makes it to the words of wisdom page...that was awesome and it strengthened my quit by a hundred today.

You're gaining momentum bro. Keep your head in the game and work on getting rid of the "I can't believe I made it" thinking. Turn it around. Start each day with "Of course I made it!" You just quit bro. You're not in the process of quitting. You're done. Wrap your head around it and be the badass that it represents. Own it. I'm a fellow July brother from last year. I'll help you any way I can. Check your inbox (1).

I'm going to make you spend thousands of dollars in doctor and hospital bills, I'm going to orphan your kids, make your spouse go at life alone or find another mate. I'm going to take your families money and feed my family with it, also, junior wants a convertible to drive to Harvard. I need some new addicts to pay for that car and his education, you top the list. I need your money addict.
How would you feel about me? Would you do business with me? Would you buy my product? Would you want to kill me? Would you at least stand up for yourself and your family?
Well, I say Fuck Them, you're not taking my money, much less my life without getting the fight of your life. In fact I would rather die on my own accord than let you kill me. It's me or you motherfucker, and I'm not going to lose. All I have to do is Not Dip and you lose. That's it. You are not getting another penny from me you son of a bitch. Not a fucking penny. You will not make me withdraw, you will not make me crave, you will never make me kneel at your alter ever again. I'm in control, not you. I'm pissed, and I'm armed with quit. Fuck you and heed warning I'm out to do to you what you threatened to do to my children. Your on notice tobacco CEO. I'm fucking quit and I will never again let you treat me like a whore.
That might have taken more than 35 seconds, sorry. Hope you get where I'm coming from.
Mogul
Holy goddamn. If that's not enough to solidify a reason to quit and stay quit then I don't know what is. Damn fine Mogul. Damn fine.
Well said, Mogul. Fuck the UST CEO!
Thanks Mogul! I'm all jacked up right now after reading that. I'm good for the day now!
This thread made my day. Thank you.
MR MOGUL!!!!!!!!!!! YES!
Rack HIM! This is the post of the day if not the week. I love it.
I will not give the domestic terrorist organization know as UStobacco any of my money. I will not let the Government tax me for funding the Organization that murders 3 million people world wide per year! Yes per year.
Think about that, UST kills a city the size of Houston every year. Have you ever heard them say, "sorry"? They don't give a shit about their customers, they are gullible addicts and plenty of kids will be recruited to replace the dead. Our government accepts a buyout and in return, no individual can bring a lawsuit against USTobacco for their product.
I put 5.00 per day in savings. If I caved, I would donate to KTC and if I didn't I would start collecting guns. I now have two and shared some of the money with my wife for her roll with helping me quit. She got plantation shutters for the house.
Its good to be quit and Mogul I would kiss you if you were in my office right now.
I am pumped and pissing vinegar right now.
Hey USTobacco! Kiss my Anglo-Saxon ass! 'Finger'
vbe931 You are in Hell! Winston Churchill said, "When you find yourself in hell, keep walking!!!!
Post roll, keep your word, repeat. It's a bitch to quit but it does get easier. Just fight on and embrace the pain because you are winning your freedom back!
Trust me, stay true and quit every today. KTC is a fool proof way to quit. Just keep going.

WOW! Mogul, thank you for the inspiration. Thank you to everyone! I am now on hour number 38 of this quit. I am just taking it minute by minute, hour by hour right now.

Well, I am 15 minutes away from the first 24 hours of nicotine free living that I can remember in who knows how long. The mind is foggy, can't concentrate, face, jaw, lips are throbbing, but my resolve is strong.Â
I just went to the chatroom and got help from a bunch of guys that helped me get through the last couple of hours. Those guys made me dump the rest of my copey snuff in a toilet and flush that shit down the drain. They made me take a pic and send it to them. I did it. They were proud.Â
I am going to try and get some sleep now, and welcome any support that may come through this thread as I venture onto day 2. I made it through day one fellas, still can't believe it. Tomorrow is another day, another fight, one day at a time. I feel like with the help of my new found brothers, I can take on the challenge.Â
I will be posting as much as possible from this thread as a sort of diary or journal, in hopes of getting support from others, and providing inspiration to those that may need it. Stay tuned for some real shit to be written. The journey has only just begun...
Hey bro, let's be calm and rational for 35 seconds. You are thinking that just one pinch can solve your problems. Your gums will not hurt, your tongue won't feel like a filing rod, and your mind will return to normal. That is the Nic Bitch telling you all of that. That is how "they" keep you coming back for more. That is how they line their wallets, with your addiction and ultimately your death. See, this is nothing more than the best money scam going. Just imagine if you could have a 10 million dollar mansion and have someone else pay for it. Well, "they" figured out how to do that. Provide a product that "addicted you" to it and paid off lawmakers to keep it legal. Tax the shit out of it and everybody wins. Except for the addict, you can die. There will be plenty more behind you, you're not special. So, every time you step into that store and throw a five on the counter, just remember you are agreeing to be taxed, proliferated and murdered, all with your money and your blessing. You "OK" this when you lay down your cash.
I want you to suppose for a minute that I walk up to you. Look you in the eye and tell you I'm going to kill you, slowly. I'm going to make you spend thousands of dollars in doctor and hospital bills, I'm going to orphan your kids, make your spouse go at life alone or find another mate.

My quit is almost 47 hours long now. Never thought I would make it this far. Would not have been able to without the chatroom and the support from other brothers via PM, text message, etc. I am actually in the chatroom right now for some support. Those are some awesome guys in there. I have really bad withdrawal symptoms right now.
Like I said, I am using this thread as a journal so I can track my journey that I have just begun. I hope none of you hardcore vets are offended by that. I do appreciate all support that I get. I read some great responses in my thread that really helped me out today.
Its Friday night, and I usually would be drunk as hell with a fatty in my lip, but I live a new life now. I protect my quit at all costs. It grows stronger with each day. I can't afford to drink right now, not for a long time. I need to protect the quit.
I am lusting for a fatty right now, but the chatroom is keeping me in check. This is a bad night for me. One year ago tonight something happened in my life, I would rather not go into it on this post, but just know that it really makes me want to chew. That makes me upset that I want to chew because of a bad memory. It makes me upset that the addiction is so strong that I feel the need to go to it in times of distress. Instead of giving in, I am just here posting. I may not be making too much sense right now, but at least I am not chewing. My head is in a cloud, and I am just trying to make it to 48 hours.
I envy some of the vets on here and how strong they are. I am not sure I will ever be that strong. I think their strength comes from their anger at the nic bitch and big tobacco. They leverage and harness that anger into the ultimate power for their quit. I don't have anger in me for whatever reason, I have always been a laid back guy. I have to come up with an approach that works for me, without the involvement of rage or anger. I am still searching for the answer to that. Maybe after the cloud clears a bit after the first 72 hours there will be some clarity.
Anyways, I am here typing. I would rather be typing away than having a chew. Although I am taking this one day at a time, I wonder what will keep me strong over time. I assume the brothers on the site and posting roll call should help.
I have been reading everything that I can on the site. Great posts. The words of wisdom. HOF speeches. I also looked at cancer pics. They really tripped me out. Then I start reading about oral cancer, and that tripped me out even more. I start reading about the warning signs, and I think that I have a lot of them. Went to the dentist last week and they took pics and said to quit, and come back in 2 weeks to see if my mouth looks better. So I am quit, and will go back in 2 weeks. I am worried about it. But what can I do about it right now? Nothing but quit, and stay quit, and protect the quit.
If anyone has advice on what to do when quitting and depressed, please let me know. I am not joking here, I mean severe clinical depression. I am already taking meds for it and going to intense therapy. The meds I take are the right ones apparently for nicotine cessation. Wellbutrin. I was worried and scared to share this info to the public in a post, but I figured how can my brothers help me if they don't know what is really going on. So there you go. If you have any advice let me know. The depression is getting worse, but I am fighting it. I don't want to cave.
This quit is extra challenging because right now I don't eat food. I was 355 pounds 5 weeks ago. I am 6 feet tall. I went on a medically supervised medial weight loss diet. I only get to take these protein shakes. I get 4 of them a day, for a total of 800 calories. The diet is extremely strict, I am not allowed to have ANYTHING else, except for 5 sticks of sugar free gum and water. No food has touched my lips in 5 weeks now. I go to the doctors office every week to get my vitals checked, and weigh in. I have lost 22 pounds. I am down to 333 pounds, with a long way to go. The strength from my food quit gave me the strength to take on this nicotine quit. I just worry that I have too many quits going on at the same time. It's too late to go back now, I have quit nicotine and I will not go back. Honestly, I can't believe I am on a temporary food quit right now, think about how crazy that is. These shakes are gross and chalky.
Well, enough of my random thoughts in this haze of suck. For those of you out there who have supported me, thank you. I think I have made it through another day. I am 10 minutes away from 48 hours now. Tomorrow is another challenge. We will tackle it when it comes.
Stay Quit!

Great post! That is what your intro is for my friend.
I am not sure I will ever be that strong.
I assure you in time you will get stronger and stronger. When you first put down the poison your thoughts, actions, routines,,,,,, ( daily life ) revolved around the poison. Now you are going out on a limb and believing what your are reading and seeing. You have to believe what a bunch of quitters are telling you. We are telling you the truth,, Believe it. You will get stronger in time. Eventually you will begin to own your thoughts again. You will start to uncover all the lies you have believed for years. This happens one day at a time. Believe it!
I recommend you start reading everything you can on nicotine/addiction. Learn your enemy, it knows you. I can't believe I went 25 years not knowing any facts about the poison. It took quitting for me to realize maybe it was time to find out a little about what was controlling me. What a difference knowledge makes in this quit! With knowledge the HATE will begin.
Keep doing what your doing. Give this time. You will love your new life. We weren't meant to be lead around by a can of poison. One day at a time and you can have back a lot of what the poison has stolen. Never again for any reason and you can keep it .

vbe, I understand that you're in a haze and the fog is thick, but you're all over the place. From the chat room to reading on the site, to depression, to weight loss. You need to focus.
When it comes to quitting, your job is to do 2 things. 1) post roll and promise not to use nicotine for today. 2) Do not use nicotine in any form today. That's it.
You have to realize all of that other stuff that is orbiting your quit, is noise. Focus on the task at hand, get through the fog, and the chaos/noise surrounding your quit will soon come into order.
Lastly, I appreciate that you're jumping all in when it comes to the site and the resources it has. One of those resources is this thread. Rather than post multi-directional rants of randomness, focus your posts on key elements of the quit. A trial, a tribulation, a simple victory. Concentrate on what is important, and right now that is quitting nicotineÂ…the other things will fall into place over time.
You can breath now.

Steak- what is important to his quit and what might be important to yours is probably different. Where do you get off being critical of his thoughts?
He appears to have posted the stuff about depression hoping to connect with another member who might have gone through the same thing. That is not "noise", that is him asking for help. You obviously have nothing to contribute in that department, so stay out of it.
And not eating food while trying to quit nicotine is also not "noise", it is a complication to the quit that he is dealing with. I imagine the low blood sugar combined with the cravings will make his symptoms pretty severe, don't you? Maybe he wanted members to know what he is going through.
Either way, he said that he is using this intro as a journal, so if his style bothers you, look elsewhere.
He's posting roll. ODAAT.

Day 3! Nice job posting roll.
Focus on today. You have 2 days quit... That is a show of strength! You are not weak bro. You are here and you are quit. That is how you do it.
Keep battling today! Own this day!

Easy there Lipi, nobody's getting off anything. While you may see a plea for help, I see chaos in this post. While you may see this as recording a journal, I see this as a record of various thoughts racing through his mind at that point in time.
I am entitled to post my opinion and my reaction to what he wrote. In this case, my recommendation was focus and vbe can take it or leave it. It's like you said what works for me may not work for him, but that's for vbe to decide, not you. Every person's quit is different with respect to what they value and what we try to do here at KTC is offer perspective. Clearly we have differing points of viewÂ…and that should be ok.
Vbe, I'm not responding to Lipi's post in defense of myself, I don't feel compelled I need to. No one is being malicious here and this is your thread, and should be about you. Just know, there are a lot of people here at KTC with differing perspectives. This is your quit, we're all here to help, and those offerings come with different approaches, tones, and ideas. The good thing, is you get to decide what works best for you. But I still stand by the 2 things you need to do. Â…post roll, and don't use nicotine. And know this, I'm glad your here and glad to be quit with you.

Man. 61 hours in and things are as bad as they have ever been. The cloudy head is real foggy. The cravings are as intense as ever. I have just been laying in bed all day trying to sleep but can't. I am unable to get out of bed because this feeling is just so intense and shitty. I am having doubts that it will get better after 72 hours. Need encouragement. This is one of the most hopeless feelings I have ever felt in my life, I am extremely depressed. To be honest, I am in tears.

It gets better. You are in the suck and it flat out sucks. You are not hopeless. You are winning right now. I know you can't see it now but you have been quit 61 hrs. Not many people can do that. You are doing it.
Anything that makes you feel like this is not good for you. Time to kick the nic B to the curb today. The nicotine will be out of your system after 3 days!
If laying in bed is not working. Go for a walk or get your mind thinking about something else.
You can do this today! Fight bro!

Exercise, wáter, wáter, and wáter. Laying around and feeling sorry for yourself is not going to help. Candy, sunflower seeds, food. Have you thought about fake? I used smoky mountain for about the first 40 days. It really helped.
It's going to suck for a while, but you have to get moving my friend. 1000's have went though this and your no different. Reach deep. After 72 hours it will get easier. It's worth it, hang in there dammit.

Laying around in bed, trying to sleep...probably the worst thing you can do.
You HAVE to get moving. The bitch loves a sitting target. Especially in the early going.
You have to get the idea out of your head that if you go back to dipping that you will all of the sudden spring back to life like Popeye eating a can of spinach. It's not going to happen.
I think you want to quit, but I get a sense you want it to be easy.
It aint. It fucking sucks, especially early on. But it gets better, I promise.
Don't believe me, ask the thousands of others here who have been in your shoes.
Quit on...

Here I am, I have crossed the 72 hour mark. It feels so good to reach that accomplishment. I am not foolish enough to think the worst is behind me. I know it is still an uphill battle. 72 hours is just a marker, like 1 month, HOF, 1rst floor, 2nd floor, 1 year, etc. The quit never really ends, it's a journey. The nic bitch never dies. I am starting to understand what it means to be an addict. It is helping me change my approach and outlook. I hope the coming days are not as hard as the last 3 have been, but if they are I feel good knowing I have the KTC community to lean on. Thank you.

Just focus on today. Do something enjoyable today. Revel in your new found freedom. That's my suggestion.

Go outside and take a good look my friend. Look at the world without the poison desensitizing your emotions and blurring your vision. Freedom, smell it, taste it and feel it. After time you will want to kick yourself right in the A$$ for ever believing the lies. The poison has owned you for it's last day.
This is a new beginning. Take it one day at a time. You will have some more bad days, but my worst day without the poison in better then my best day with it.
Way to push through yesterday. Realize if you made it yesterday you can damn sure make it through today. It's all mental now. Your heart is in it, but it will take the brain some time. Proud to be quit with you.

Man I'm so proud of you today. Really proud to get to know someone that has a heart like yours that's tough enough to do the hard work no matter what it takes. You are taking your life back VBE and you will truly get to live - one day at a time. I missed your post early yesterday when you were struggling - please don't be shy to use the phone numbers you got the other day on chat. We're here for you and that's why we gave you our numbers. Call text...we'll be there. Hang in there man and eyes forward. There's no going back.

Day 4. It's a different feeling. The cravings are still there, but it's more mental with some physical. I am having thoughts of caving right now, so instead I just came to this thread to post. I have to do this to remind myself that I will not take a chew today. The desire and the cravings are very strong in me right now, I have been fighting them with everything that I have inside of me. I had no idea that anything could be as strong as the nic bitch. I never realized how much of an addict I was, and still am, as I desire and long for nicotine. Posting this will help me get through this craving. Maybe I will hop on chat as well, that usually helps. My worry is that I will always crave this hard. If I crave this much, I don't think I can last. Every single second I keep thinking about taking a juicy fatty. It is exhausting. I have no space in my head for any other thoughts, I am just scraping by. When will my resolve become stronger? When will I be able to live life again, because what I am doing and going through right now is not living life.

You are absolutely living liife. It just sucks right now. It won't always be this way.. Scrapping by is what you have to keep doing.
Your reslove gets stronger every time you beat back a crave. You have to build momentum. It takes a while.
I am going to recommend you read "The Easy Way to Quit Smoking" by Alan Carr.
It was suggested to me early on by Skoal Monster and it was beyond helpful. Although it's about quitting cigs, it's really a masterpiece of the how nicotine really works and debunks all the lies associated with it. I think it will really help your head right now.
Hang tough bub.
Quit on...

That book Diesel recommends led me here, read it. Doesn't take long.

I'm on day 31 and loving life. It's gonna suck, then it won't. Keep at it. You really don't want to go through those first few days again do you? I'll be honest, the first couple weeks were hard but your attitude needs to be 100% quit. You can do it!!! Stay on here and get in chat.

Remember the Nic bitch is crafty. She is waiting for your weakness. She will pounce when she sees you struggle. Are you strong enough to fight her off? She will whisper in your ear and say all kinds of shit to get you back together with her again. Time to tell her to GTFO and be on your way. Drink water and lots of it. It does help. Try some fake if you need to. I still use it occasionally.
Tell her at the end of every post. Hey NB 'Finger'

I advise the same as the above quiter. Start learning your enemy, it will begin getting your head in the right place. Read everything you can on addiction/nicotine. Right now your believing a bunch of lies. Start arming yourself with knowledge and stop just doing enough to get by.
I since a lack of commitment. You want this then it don't matter how bad you feel for i don't care how long. That's the attitude you need to work toward. Once caving is completely off the table the real healing will begin.
You got this bro. 4 days is proof. If you can make it 4 then you can make it 5. It will get better. There is proof all over this site. Ask anyone with some time built up. Read hof speeches. Read intros from guys that have been here for a while. You want a damn good read, diesel's is a great place to start. There is someone that went through a lot but he held it together. Ask diesel now what he thinks of the poison.
You want this you got to dig my friend. Freedom isn't cheap but it's damn sure worth it. It's a good day to be quit my friend. Keep your head pointed forward, you won't be sorry.

Hello KTC brotherhood. Thank you very much for the encouragement and the responses. I really appreciate it. I am almost done with Day 4. It is still a struggle, but I need to stay strong. I really envy those of you on here that are strong with your quits. I am trying to learn how you got to be so strong. Diesel, I really appreciate the responses, and the suggestion for the book. I will read the book for sure, just got it on my iPad.
I think some of you are correct. I am not strong with my quit. I have to figure out the way to get stronger with my quit. Each day that goes by, I am hoping that it will bring strength.
In the mean time, I am grateful and blessed to have the people here on KTC to lean on during these tough times. Thank you everyone.
Day 4 almost in the books, lets start a fresh Day 5 on Monday!

Being quit is awesome. I never knew how hard but how invigorating it is. 4 days is awesome. You can and will succeed if you have the right attitude. Don't fail at quitting. Nice seeing you in chat.
-
You will do this one day at at a time. You screwed your brain for years,, I say again YEARS!! I'll let you add the days up on your own. You'll probably need a calculator. I say that to say this,,, 5 days is just the beginning. In time you will start to feel better and begin feeling somewhat normal. What is normal exactly!?!? Your guess is as good as mine.
There is a door you need to get to. This door is hard to get to and open. Sharpen your tools, settle in and make your way to the door. I can't tell you how far the door is or how long it will be before you get to this door. You WILL get there one day at a time. I make you one promise and you can take it to the bank. You stay the course, and live by this rule (nafar) you will love where this quit takes you. Life is so much better without the poison. Glad to be quit with you.

You say you envy those of us on here that have been quit for a while. We all started the same fight you did. It was a uphill battle for us all as well. We all struggled at first but was able to overcome the battle and become victorious. You to can do this. I used this website like hell for the first month posting and talking to help me get through the hard times. Its hard to reprogram your brain to thinking it doesnt need this anymore. That is the main thing your fighting is your mental battle inside yourself and once you find a way to reprogram your brain to say I don't need that crap anymore you will see how awesome it is to live without an addiction. Hang tough and use Rocky as a role model he got beat to shit in the beginning stages of the fight but he won in the end and you will to.
-
Dig deep buddy. You can do this. It is worth it. Fight, fight, fight.
You wont think dipping is too cool when you have a surgeon remove your lower jaw and part of your tongue.
It gets better man, I give you my word. I didnt believe it when people told me that, but I had the faith to see it through. 452 days today baby. One day at a time. There will NEVER be a "better time" to quit than right now.
No dip today.

Vbe, you are in a funk now and I get that so hang tough. How strong your is your quit? Just as strong as you want it to be. It's an attitude brother; its not something that just comes. It is an attitude that you have to carry on your shoulder. Be proud of you, be strong for you, don't let anything come between you and quit. Reach deep down inside your gut and pull out a fucking quit monster. Never Again, For Any Reason, will I dip. I am better than that, I deserve to not be a slave to nicotine, I am ................. (you fill in the blank).
I quit with ya, wish I could do it for you but I can't.

There is no reason to use again. Like the guys said. Fight, fight, fight. The days will start to add up. You shall arrive at a point where your new normal hardly even thinks about dip. I promise. Day 1207.

I don't know vbe, looks to me like you're reeling this in pretty nicely. Each day is a goal, and now your 4 days quit. Four F'n days!!! Do you realize how big an accomplishment that is? How many times have you tried to quit and failed after 24 hours? How many times has every single one of us tried to quitÂ….and failed within 2 hours. My point is, you say your quit isn't strongÂ…Bullshit. If it weren't strong there is no way you'd be 4 days quit.
And the good news, you get to do it all again tomorrow and be strong for a 5th day in a row. There are side effects to this, sure, and the weak end up caving. The strong survive. You are surviving, and therefor you are not weak.

Hello KTC brothers and sisters, all you badass quitters out there. I am just checking in on this Day 5. Once again thank you for all the support. Diesel, I am halfway through the Allen Carr book you recommended. It is really helping me open my eyes. Thank you for the suggestion.
Stay quit!

That's how it works V. The advice you receive here is from fellow addicts that are experiencing or have experienced the same thing. When you have those bad days, and you aren't done with them, fight it 1 hour at a time if that's what it takes. Be sure you have some #s of others in your group to lean on and support.
-
VBE, you sir are doing great!!! Keep it up.... The quit is strong with you and I'm happy to be walking down the same damn road with you on our way to taking control of our lives once and for all... It was funny the pic you sent me of all the cans and that big glob of dip in the toilet... Mine looked the same... Knowing what I know now (how bad the first 3-4 days were), I'd fucking quit today again if I never had and would want someone like yourself there to kick ass and motivate me...
Stay quit Destroyers!

And V your quit is strong, you're doing it and made day 5! Thats some serious progress!!
-
The next week will be a challenge but stay strong my friend. You can get through it. Glad to be quit with ya.

Diesel, I just read the whole book cover to cover. Allen Carr's "Easy Way To Stop Smoking". You recommended it, and it changed my life. It changes the way I look at everything related to my quit. I recommend it to anyone, it is that good, and it applies to chewers even though it talks about smoking.
I know now that I will NEVER EVER have nicotine in me again. It is not even an option.
Thank you!
Quit for life.

There you go. This post is what it's all about. Yesterday your having trouble making it to the next minute. Today you are talking about never again for any reason. A little knowledge and you are QLF!. See how this works? Build up your arsenal, learn what to expect. No more sneak attacks! Glad to be quit with you.

You've come a long way, V. You're quit is getting stronger each day. Well done. Quitting with you today.

Hello brothers and sisters. Today is day 6. I have had a very interesting day. Last night I read for about 10 hours straight, until 3 AM, reading "The Easy Way to Quit Smoking" by Allen Carr. It was recommended to me by the great quitter Diesel. He was so right about me needing to read that book. It really changed my life. It changed the way I look at addiction and nicotine. It changed my whole perspective of how I approach this quit, and how I will approach cravings that I will have for the rest of my life. In a nutshell, its not a big deal, because I am quit for life. I highly recommend it to anyone out there, new or vets. I got it on iTunes for $9.99. I got the version that is a new version that was written in 2011 specifically for the American market. The original book was written in the 80's in the UK.
The reason that I am bringing the book up was that it was such a positive experience for me. The book reminded me that chewing sounds good to us, but in reality, it is gross. The taste, the spit, the spitters, the smell, our breath, what it does to our bodies, etc.
I went into today feeling so high, using all the tools that the book and this site has taught me. I was flying high all dayÂ… and all of a sudden, I was not flying high. I kinda was craving, and it was strange to me because I thought that I had permanently changed my outlook after reading the book. It just taught me the lesson that I have a long ways to go, and that I am an addict, and that the nic bitch will always be there, but I just need to stay strong and realize that I have quit for life.
And to add to that, I need to do normal things again and enjoy life. Life is too precious to not live it to its fullest. I was so preoccupied with my quit over the first few days, I sort of stopped living life, I was just surviving. There is a fine line between being on the site a lot and being addicted to the site, as strange as that sounds. Using it as a sort of crutch at the start of your quit. I was using it a lot. But I am glad that I was because I needed it. After reading the book and changing my outlook, I feel like I can live life more normally again.
Tomorrow will be Day 7 for me. I am excited, as that will mean I have been quit for 1 week. I have gotten so much support from so many great quitters, I am truly blessed. I can't wait to start helping some of the newbies in the near future. I want to pay it back, the support that I have gotten. Thanks of reading my post for those of you that took the time, I hope it helped you gain some perspective on your own quit.
Stay Quit!!!

Never be overconfident in your quit. The NB will pounce when she thinks that you have forgotten about her. Staying on KTC is your constant reminder that you are an addict. That's what happened to me a long time ago. I tried to ignore everything to do with dipping. Now we must face it head one and tell it to 'arse' .

Congrats on day 7 brother. Proud to quit with you today!!!

I'm gonna disagree with Raider's wording a bit... Not the sentiment.
You SHOULD be overconfident in your quit! Own it! Own it like nothin you've ever done in your life! Nurture it... Love it... Feed it... Share it... Know it. It's going to make your life better... So, YES! Be overconfident! Again... Own it.
Never. Ever... Be complacent. Sticking around here will take care of that.
Rock on bro. You're doing it!

Exactly what AppleJack said... Never become complacent. But certainly be confident that you got this on lock down.
Complacency opens the door.
Ask me a week ago and I would not have thought the same way I do now though. This site and everyone on it has been invaluable. I won't let my guard down, because I wasted enough of my life with that shit in my mouth already.
We got this. July Dip Destroyers!

I have had a very interesting day. Last night I read for about 10 hours straight, until 3 AM, reading "The Easy Way to Quit Smoking" by Allen Carr. It was recommended to me by the great quitter Diesel. He was so right about me needing to read that book. It really changed my life. It changed the way I look at addiction and nicotine. It changed my whole perspective of how I approach this quit, and how I will approach cravings that I will have for the rest of my life. In a nutshell, its not a big deal, because I am quit for life. I highly recommend it to anyone out there, new or vets. I got it on iTunes for $9.99. I got the version that is a new version that was written in 2011 specifically for the American market. The original book was written in the 80's in the UK.Â
The reason that I am bringing the book up was that it was such a positive experience for me. The book reminded me that chewing sounds good to us, but in reality, it is gross. The taste, the spit, the spitters, the smell, our breath, what it does to our bodies, etc.Â
I went into today feeling so high, using all the tools that the book and this site has taught me. I was flying high all dayÂ… and all of a sudden, I was not flying high. I kinda was craving, and it was strange to me because I thought that I had permanently changed my outlook after reading the book. It just taught me the lesson that I have a long ways to go, and that I am an addict, and that the nic bitch will always be there, but I just need to stay strong and realize that I have quit for life.Â
And to add to that, I need to do normal things again and enjoy life. Life is too precious to not live it to its fullest. I was so preoccupied with my quit over the first few days, I sort of stopped living life, I was just surviving. There is a fine line between being on the site a lot and being addicted to the site, as strange as that sounds. Using it as a sort of crutch at the start of your quit. I was using it a lot. But I am glad that I was because I needed it. After reading the book and changing my outlook, I feel like I can live life more normally again.
Tomorrow will be Day 7 for me. I am excited, as that will mean I have been quit for 1 week. I have gotten so much support from so many great quitters, I am truly blessed. I can't wait to start helping some of the newbies in the near future. I want to pay it back, the support that I have gotten. Thanks of reading my post for those of you that took the time, I hope it helped you gain some perspective on your own quit.
Stay Quit!!!

Never be overconfident in your quit. The NB will pounce when she thinks that you have forgotten about her. Staying on KTC is your constant reminder that you are an addict. That's what happened to me a long time ago. I tried to ignore everything to do with dipping. Now we must face it head one and tell it to 'arse' .
I'm gonna disagree with Raider's wording a bit... Not the sentiment.
You SHOULD be overconfident in your quit! Own it! Own it like nothin you've ever done in your life! Nurture it... Love it... Feed it... Share it... Know it. It's going to make your life better... So, YES! Be overconfident! Again... Own it.
Never. Ever... Be complacent. Sticking around here will take care of that.
Rock on bro. You're doing it!
Exactly what AppleJack said... Never become complacent. But certainly be confident that you got this on lock down.
Complacency opens the door.
Ask me a week ago and I would not have thought the same way I do now though. This site and everyone on it has been invaluable. I won't let my guard down, because I wasted enough of my life with that shit in my mouth already.
We got this. July Dip Destroyers!
The Allen Carr book is great. I read it early on in my quit as we'll perhaps around day 5 or so. It sounds like your quit is solidifying. That's great. Keep it up brother. I quit with you today.

151 hours of quit and counting for you VBE! Keep up the momentum! ODAAT.

What a week! I took my life back. One week ago today I woke up, not knowing that my last chew ever was behind me. It wasn't planned, I didn't think about it for a long time, it just happened. Destiny lead me to this site, and I became saved. I owe my extended life to what happened a week ago. Today is Day 7, and things are easier and more manageable. Everything is going to be okay, I just have to believe, and never use nicotine again. Obviously it is ODAAT, but it is possible. Many thanks to those that continue to support and help.
Stay quit!

Just wanted to share this post I pulled from my own intro:Day 43,
Busy at work and home the last few weeks, at times I feel like I'm robbing time from my family to spend time here - then I say WTF how much more time would not quitting dip have taken from me. A hell of a lot more than spending a bit of time here -- even hours if I need them this early in the quit. I enjoy trying to help new members get the site figured out - get on roll and get quit when I'm having good days. I still have days at this point where all my energy goes to keeping me from walking across the street to the gas station I could hit with a baseball from my front porch, those days I come here and read HOF, WOW, quit gropus, wildcard and live chat. Want to say thanks to those who have played a part in my quit up to now - Thank you KTC members!!! Thanks vets for showing me it can be done, thanks new members for reminding me about the suck, the lack of sleep etc... Above all - thanks Rocktober Madmen 2012!! proud to be quit with you all today!!
Shared that so you don't feel too bad for using the site. It's a good thing, use it, that's why it's here.

Quick post here. At the doctors office waiting in the room to get checked out, and for them to stick a tube down my throat to take a look at the damage I have done to myself. Posting this so I remember how scared I am, to help me in the future to make sure I never chew again, no nicotine what so ever. I will never forget this feeling.
Wish me luck brothers and sisters.

Just had the throat scope done, and the mouth checked, no cancer. What a relief. Definately not in the clear because it could always come in the future, but for now I am clear, and so thankful for that. I will never forget the feeling of fear while I was waiting for the doctor. This has definately strengthened my quit to all time high levels, I never want nicotine again.

What a relief for you but be sure to keep with the program here. Never is a long time. Just stay Nic free for today. Repeat tomorrow.

vbe, that is great news. Please Please watch out for the bitch. She is going to be talking to you now. She will be saying, "See, I'm not bad, you don't have anything to worry about, just buy one more can." Stay quit.
-
Mogul and Raider, both of you are so right. I will not let down my guard, I will take it ODAAT. I know it is so easy to lose everything with one slip. I don't want that to happen. Thank you for your comments and support.

Great news V! I would think a cancer scare is a great motivator to stay quit. ODAAT EDD!

VBE - I smile when I see your posts each morning knowing the struggle you had to flush the cans that night. I continue to just be so proud of you for doing that and for staying quit and doing what you know is the right thing to do. That picture of the empty cans on the rim of the toilet will always serve as an inspiration.
-
vbe...seems as if you are getting this quittin thing. Well done.
-
vbe,
You are a bad ass quitter. I'm damn proud to quit with you today, tomorrow, and every god damn day after that.
Stay quit brother,

Thanks for bumping this guy's intro to the top. I just re-read some of his early trials, and I must say vbe, you have come a really long way. Your road to 100, possibly has been longer than others based on your early struggles. It's because of those early struggles and your perseverance through that, I'm impressed. I'm also inspired by it. That's one impressive quit you have going on here.
-
VBE- Congrats on reaching this awesome milestone of 100 days. Knowing what you have fought through to get this far is inspiring. I am proud to know you, and proud that I could play a small part in helping you along. You are really a bad ass. The fight is not over. I will be here with you. QLF
-
Just went back and read thru your intro again. Congrats! Never forget how hard it was to start your quit. Start...... Yea it's not over. Continue to post roll and support others. Btw quit looks damn good on you. Quit with you.
-
Congrats, my friend. Well done. See ya tomorrow for 101.
-
Well done bro! You powers through this... Winning at every step. Love it!
-
Congrats on 100. Keep it up. Enjoy your day and don't forget what got you here.
-
Congratulations vbe! Lots of greatness ahead! One day at a time you have taken like back. Enjoy your first Independence Day!
-
Way to be VBE. You are on the right path. Keep going. Congrats!
-
Congrats Vbe, HOF is just the begining. 'boob' 'boob' 'boob' 'boob' 'boob'
-
A huge congrats as I see a posting of 101 today. See it is so much better that 100 as you realize that 100 is only the first (thought it is huge) milestone in a long line of things that get so much more joyous.
well done and keep up the great quit.
-
Congrats on reaching the HOF and beyond! I remember exchanging some messages with you very early on in your quit, I believe you were day 2 or 3. I'm glad I'm able to congratulate you on this first big milestone! Keep that solid quit chugging along bro!

You caved.
You called me knowing full well that nothing I would say was gonna keep you from caving.
Drunk off your ass.
"My team lost today"... Weak. Shit.
IMO... You've just been waiting for an opportunity to fail. You're still owned. After 160+ days, you're still owned.
That's sad and pathetic man.
You just give up, give in, and use again!?
I'm so pissed off I have no words.
What are you gonna do now? Life or slavery... Choose.

Disappointed - your entry into being quit here was legendary, Bronc and I talked about it when we met in person last month.. how it all went down and how it was quit fuel.. Now this..

So, as discussed in July, I will not say "this makes my quit stronger". I will tell you VBE that it was a good exercise for me to explain to my wife and kids why my phone was vibrating for half an hour straight during dinner. I knew before I checked it that someone caved, so it was a good lesson for me to look my family in the eye and tell them that while I cannot promise "forever", I can certainly promise until midnight - something which you apparently can't do after 160+ days.
Oh, my team lost Saturday night to a bunch of dorks in yellow uniforms, thus squashing their National Championship hopes by September 6th.....and on the 7th I posted roll and moved on.

Vbe's last post. He responded to a few words of support but this was his last post on his thread. Vbe speaks of fear, never chewing again, never forgetting this feeling (of fear). Later he gets a clean bill of health; narrowly escaped a death sentence.
Vbe. You are a joke.
-
You posted roll and caved within 4 hours. That's pretty fucking inexcusable.

Dude gets a clean bill of health goes out repeats the same crime. If you commit the crime, you pay the time. Simple as that. Why don't you answer your phone when I call you Viraj!?!? MAN up OWN this mistake... I'll be here waiting for you V.

Vbe ... as we discussed ... stand up, dust yourself off, and man up. You're going to hear it, and you've got it coming. Crossroads are there for everyone in life ... pick the right road.

Copied from a PM you sent me right after I called out July (your group).
"Alright THansen2413. I see you trying to stir up a shit storm in our July group. I am PM-ing you now so you can't keep bitching about no one PM-ing you. July is fucking strong. We stay quit, we post roll, we stick by each other through tough times. Ask your brother Bronc, he will let you know what I am all about."
So that was all bullshit. Is that what you're telling me? Later dude.

This was an amazing thread. Some people sent you the equivalent of quit pearls, gold, and diamonds, but you sullied it when you caved and pissed on everyone's amazing advice and support. Bro my team lost too. We always lose close games. We are the Chargers!!! I'M STILL CLEAN.
Get back in here and mop up your mess!

Pretty funny Chargers. My buddy and I who used to live and die with the Chargers (now we just die) were talking about how brutal it is to be a chargers fan. He heard a stat we are the all time leader in blown double digit 4th quarter leads? Not sure if that is true, but it feels accurate.
Heartbreaker.
But you know what never crossed my mind? Chew.
Because why would it? I quit. I am not sitting around looking for an excuse and pining for a lost love.

Being a fan of ANY sports team that represents SD is NEVER easy. I love the quote from Lipi, "live and die with the Chargers (now we just die)" b/c that's how it is. At least we're not dying by throwing that cancer in our system b/c our team lost though. Quit w/ you guys like the Chargers blowing leads...

VBE, I gave you my best. do me a favor and run like the pussy you are. run pussy run and watch out for the butterflies, they will eat your ass alive.

Well, I am 15 minutes away from the first 24 hours of nicotine free living that I can remember in who knows how long. The mind is foggy, can't concentrate, face, jaw, lips are throbbing, but my resolve is strong.
I just went to the chatroom and got help from a bunch of guys that helped me get through the last couple of hours. Those guys made me dump the rest of my copey snuff in a toilet and flush that shit down the drain. They made me take a pic and send it to them. I did it. They were proud.
I am going to try and get some sleep now, and welcome any support that may come through this thread as I venture onto day 2. I made it through day one fellas, still can't believe it. Tomorrow is another day, another fight, one day at a time. I feel like with the help of my new found brothers, I can take on the challenge.
I will be posting as much as possible from this thread as a sort of diary or journal, in hopes of getting support from others, and providing inspiration to those that may need it. Stay tuned for some real shit to be written. The journey has only just begun...
Read the last paragraph. What happened to this guy inside of you? Sorry you caved. Pissed you caved. Your call now man. You gotta own it, take full responsibility and create a support network that you will use, not lame-assedly flick at on your way down.

Try being a Lions fan for a day. And then go back to SD and enjoy the near perfect weather. Hell, if I lived in SD I wouldn't even watch football the weather is so nice.
Get back in here VBE.

VBE,
IF you decide to re-join us and want some closer help.... PM me. I just noticed in your signature line that you live in Sacto also. Just offering you hometown support (if you want it)

Oh and vbe...I'm assuming that 'v' stands for vagina.

As a Day 3 quitter, I want to see you guys support VBE. He was a brother for a long time to make it to HOF+60. Ya, I would be pissed if he were in my quit group and I poured time into helping, but don't blast out with name calling. What does that do to bring him back on the quit train? Expressing solid disappointment in his action is torture enough if he reads this. But it doesn't discount the stud he was for 160 days, and I don't think you should. He'll be a Day 1 quitter just like I was 2 days ago, and need the support from all of us. How many of us have messed up our hundreds of "quits" before we found this site??

Plenty. Until I found this site and found out there is no acceptabe reason to cave. NONE. Failure will not be met with sympathy here. Sympathy is not given for things that are self inflicted. Sympathy is for the things that happen to us outside of our control. He chose to lie. He chose to fail. He chose not to protect his quit. He chose not to close the door. There is no excuse.

QuitinCA, 30 is right. The love here is tough. No hugs for trying and no second place trophies. We either quit or GTFO here. Day 3 is impressive, keep at it!
But, 30, come on. VBEÂ’s team lost.

Honestly (and sadly) I don't know vbe either. But I do. I know him to a T.
He's an addict. He's a liar. He's selfish. He's dishonest. He's not trustworthy. He's scared. He's confused. He's angry. He's me. He's every one of us.
We all go through this as addicts. God knows I've 'quit' a million times. Who out there has said this - "Quitting is easy, I do it every day!" I know I have. It's what we tell ourselves over and over again. "I can quit anytime I want." But you know the reality is, you can not.
Personally, I was never serious about it, but once I changed my mindset, it was over for that whore. It's very , very frustratinf for us to see someone come here, have all of this support, knowledge and experience at their literal fingertips, get established (reach HOF) and then cave like a pussy.
This place is unlike anything else out there. I know. I've looked, you've looked. People who have not walked our path do not understand the scenery.
QCA - I'm glad you're here brother. This place is the cornerstone of your Quit foundation. Build your Quit house with our bricks. Look at vbe's failure as a learning experience on what not to do.
vbe - if you ever have the stones to come back here and read this, you better read it with your head completely removed from your ass. You threw away an opportunity of a literal lifetime. Get your sorry ass back in here, roll your sleeves up and get to the dirty work. You need it, and you know it. I can think of worse things in life than getting your ass handed to you for being weak. Man up, and Quit on.
