Almost three weeks ago, I decided that the half empty can of chew I had in my back pocket was going to be my last. I did not stop and pick up a can (or as usual, two) on the way home from work, knowing that I would run out about bed time that night.
I came home, sat down and told my wife that I was going to quit when the can in my hand was empty. I got up the next day and headed for work determined to get through the first day. I did. Then the next, and today was day 19.
Today has been one of the toughest days yet. I almost caved, but forced myself to drive straight home after work and just get through it.
I told my wife that I was having a tough day, and that I wasn't so sure that it was worth putting myself through the torture any more. I have been depressed, I just want to sleep all the time, and I have not been very productive at my job the last couple of days.
Robin (my wife) did a little online research and told me about this site she found, and that I might want to check it out. So I did, and here I am. I made it through another day and I am determined to beat this thing!

Lucky man to have a wife so smart. This site can not only save your quit, it can save you life. No bullshit.
I like your intro. You sound determined. 19 days is strong. Only thing better is 20.
My advice, for now...read.
Read the WELCOME CENTER (in pink at the top left of the page) and learn how and why we post role. Its the backbone of this site.
Also take some time to read peoples intros, words of wisdom, hall of fame speeches, what to expect when you quit...ANYTHING on this site.
I really think you will find some comfort and rliefe in knowing there are a ton of guys going through the same stuff you are.
You ever need anything, hit me up anytime. I look forward to seeing you on here for a long time.

I quit without joining KTC for a few weeks, I think I joined around day 60. Although I read all I could in the non-member section, I was tenative to join out of fear I would fail. Well my perspective changed and I realized I would soon cave without a change and I joined. You are far ahead of where I was at this point in your quit. The commitment I feel to my quit group has been the only thing to keep me quit on some days but that is way more than enough. Stay on the site and you WILL stay quit!
