First, you are in the right place. You posted in the intros, and your posting is going to result in a shitload of support.Thank you very much I'll be sure to take all the advice I can. No worries I won't be dipping anytime soon :)
Second, most every one of us experienced all of the symptoms you describe. Nicotine is as addictive as heroin. A can of chew has the same amount of nicotine as 3 packs of smokes... That is a lot. So, you are gonna have some bumps along the road. You can do this.
Finally, listen to the support you get here. Like you, I joined this site about 20 days in to my quit - at the lowest point in my life. I was told to post roll. Wtf I thought? This roll thing sounds lame. Well, it isn't. I haven't missed a day since I joined and I wont. You will also hear about trading numbers and making contacts. Trust me, it is great advice. Having a team in your shoes that you can shoot a text to when you are really fighting can be the difference. And you can turn a crave into a laugh. No joke.
Someone smarter than me will tell you how to post roll. Listen to them! You'll find it up the first time - we all did. someone will fix it if you f it up. Just get your name on there. Join us. And you will beat this monster and have a freedom that you never imagined.
Quit with you today brother
Nice job posting with the misfits! You've given your word that today you won't let your brothers down. That is a load off of your shoulders.

Hi I'm not really sure how to use this website yet it sure if I posted this in the right place even, but I need help, I just signed up for this. I am on day 20 of my quit (I quit on 2/2/15) and its been really rough. Is there anyone that can help me get through it, I feel so alone doing this since all of my friends still pack every day. Since I quit I've had a sore throat, canker sores, occasional mild jaw aches, anxiety, depression, and headaches. It's awful I'm nervous and I don't know what to do or how to handle it. I hate dip so much and I'm never touching it again that's for sure. Help me out if you can! Even though I quit 20 days ago I joined a little late can you still help me? ThanksWelcome GB! Congrats on your first 20 days. I couldn't have made it 20hrs without this site. But thanks to the support on here it really helps. For the anxiety there's two possibilities if you think it's beyond normal levels of worry. One is that the actual withdrawals are causing anxiety issues as your brain chemistry is healing. The other is that you may have had a pre existing anxiety self medicating with dip. For me it was all of the above. Go to the dentist doc get well checked out. Chances are you're physically fine. Use that relief as fuel for your quit. Talk to your doc about anti anxiety and/or anti depressants. You'll find reading on the forums that it's common to need some form of medication so it's nothing to feel bad about. Beyond that just go with what work to win said. You'll find all the help support you need could want here on the forums. PM me if you want to text. All the best to you!
GB my friend welcome. Learn how to Post Roll! Post EDD! ODAAT! Had every single symptom you have except sores, it all went away! Your body goes through alot of wild shit trying to get back to normal! It's not easy, I know you've already figured that out but you can do this with all this help my friend! Get you some numbers and start your new life right here! On day 57 been dipping 38 years. Just an addict trying to help another addict!Quote from: gb321Hi I'm not really sure how to use this website yet it sure if I posted this in the right place even, but I need help, I just signed up for this.

I am glad you are quitting while still a young man. The "suck" (aka the misery, pain) is a result of your body healing itself and it gets better and better. You will never regret quitting, but don't forget the misery so you remind yourself to never dip again.Thanks all for the help. Conveniently I already have a checkup with my orthodontist tomorrow so I will be sure to let her know what's going on and have her take a nice look. Thanks everyone. Even though I just joined yesterday I have been a viewer of this website since day 1 of my quit, yesterday was where I realized joining and signing up would help me. Week 3 of my new life started today.
Stay active with your month. Make a few friends. The KTC system works.
Hope all goes well at the ortho and hope that they don't strap you in one of those damn headgear things. Those things look like a torture device, and not in a fun Friday night kinda way. Haha.Quote from: StatI am glad you are quitting while still a young man. The "suck" (aka the misery, pain) is a result of your body healing itself and it gets better and better.

I'm on a ski and snowboard trip with my friends and at the hotel everyone was dipping and chewing and he handed me the red man and I was like I remember I did this and I pretended to put it in and a piece fell in my mouth and I spit it out right away and didn't talk the whole night. Don't know if that counts? It was s serious accident as Braves said I played with fire and got burnt. I can't handle myself right now I didn't mean to do that. I made a mistake I need your support. I'm sorry if I'm on my own I understand, if I'm not welcome here I understand. I need you guys right now.This is serious business dude. Today you start over. Day 1.

Here are some things to consider... You posted roll, did you keep your word that day? Then you missed 2 more days. Posting and honoring roll is the core of how you will gain freedom.
I wasted 25 years and 45k on this shit dude. I hid in the shower and drove around alone for 30 min a day away from my family to maintain my addiction to a substance that is as addictive as heroin. This is no joke dude. Man up.
Well I was playing with fire and it burnt me. I held it up as a joke and a piece fell into my mouth.Quote from: gb321I'm on a ski and snowboard trip with my friends and at the hotel everyone was dipping and chewing and he handed me the red man and I was like I remember I did this and I pretended to put it in and a piece fell in my mouth and I spit it out right away and didn't talk the whole night.

The thing I will do differently is keep myself close to KTC and not act like I can do this myself, because I can't. I need you guys.

Well GB, these 2 brothers are 2 of the finest quitters I know. Both of them have helped me immensely. I chewed for 26 years and then 463 days ago I found this site. These guys are my brother's and I have never even met them. Embrace this site young man. Reach out, make friends, and for fucks sake quit messing around. This is life or death. You choose. There are great things ahead if you have the strength and desire to be free.Quote from: worktowinDude... You don't joke around by playing with a loaded gun. As an addict...

Quick update: it's day 11, I have a headache, my eyes are messing with me, I'm nervous, tired, and just not myself.

Went to sleep at 8:30 last night had a bad dream woke up at 11 then fell back asleep at 11:15 and woke up at 7 this morning. I feel light headed, eyes are playing tricks on me still, I'm just shaken up. Hope this passes, it sucks. Anyways Day 12 still quit.Hang in there man! It fucking sucks in the beginning. You gotta have faith that it gets better. Because it does. More than I can put into words. ODAAT Bro!

It sucks so bad at the beginning that you don't believe things will ever get better. Fuck that! One day at a time I swear to you that things will get better. I would give rdad's left nut... As the matter of a fact... I would give both of rdad's nuts to have quit at your age! You are inspiring to many of us, and the support you are dishing out to other guys in your shoes is really being noticed!

Day 13 still in a foggy stage not sure why, roughing it out like a man just hoping it all gets better. Quit with all of you every day.It will get better. A lot. Your brain is soaking up all of that oxygen that you've been depriving it of. You can do this. Do you have any idea how many of us 49+ year old dudes would kill to be in your 18 year old shoes and quit ? Dude you are doing what we all wish we had. You are the inspiration!
"not sure why"? GB, here's why.... day 13 sucks man. It is normal to feel like you feel right now. You have been poisoning yourself with an addictive neurotoxin for a long time. It is gonna take some time to get through this. Keep doing what you're doing. Power through the suck. It is worth it.Quote from: gb321Day 13 still in a foggy stage not sure why, roughing it out like a man just hoping it all gets better. Quit with all of you every day.It will get better. A lot.

Really cannot say it to many times. Spend copious amounts of time on this site. Learn who and what the enemy is all about. Study nicotine addiction and the knowledge will make you stronger. Freedom never comes easy but it is well worth it.Quote from: worktowin"not sure why"? GB, here's why.... day 13 sucks man. It is normal to feel like you feel right now.

Post roll daily
Get in a text group
Read, read, read on the site.
You can do this if you want to. It gets easier.
Thank you everyone for all the support I appreciate it you guys are ass. Well day 14 went pretty well. I think I'm coming down with something but my quit is still strong. To think that this would be day 40 makes me sick but it's in the past and I can only learn from that. Pretty good day 14 other then these foggy symptoms all I can say is I hope it gets better and I can't wait for that day to come.In the meantime keep writing down what you are experiencing. In life we sometimes manage to forget the bad. The bad at the beginning of your quit is is a memory that you don't want to forget. You won't ever have to relieve this misery again, and it is great to look back and celebrate winning.
I will not cave.As you progress in your quit you will begin to feel a bit repetitive. That's fine but just don't get complacent. Keep posting roll, helping others, and stay quit. Complacency is the number 1 quit killer.
GB get excited my brother! You're not putting that shit in your mouth! I'm frigging proud of you! You should be ecstatic for every second you're quit! Tell everyone you know and some you don't know, shit I do, might be one that hears that quits and that would top my quit off! I'm counting on you! Don't let me down! Damn proud to be quit with you!Quote from: gb321I will not cave.As you progress in your quit you will begin to feel a bit repetitive. That's fine but just don't get complacent.

Haven't been as active as before but still thinking about each and every one of you guys. I've been extremely busy with school and baseball but I am damn proud to say I'm 27 days quit. After my cave on the 26th day of my previous quit, it makes me more proud to realize that I'm on a new road and I'm past the point of the cave. I'm on a new record quit. A brand new quit that won't end today. 27 days strong. In 3 hours it'll be 28.Keep it up GB. From now on you will be setting records everyday on the way to freedom.

A brand new quit that won't end today. 27 days strong. In 3 hours it'll be 28.Keep it up GB. From now on you will be setting records everyday on the way to freedom.
Quit with you EDD

So close to caving, I would've caved if I wasn't a part of this team. You guys are the reason I didn't take a pinch of cope wintergreen today if I didn't sign up for this site I would've cave and I wouldn't be where I am right now. Other then that I had a nice weekend kicking back and drinking beers with my boys, watching other kids get mouth cancer laughing at them for being stupid enough to dip tobacco.There really isn't anything cool or admirable about tobacco or nicotine. Yeah, the first few times you get a buzz. But after that it just takes. I suggest that you start moving to a mindset of anger. Anger that nicotine took money, took time, made you sneaky with your parents, and anger that it is still taking from your friends. We are lucky. Sean Marsee wasn't - we all played Russian Roulette, so let anger build and drive you to the next phase of quit.
The past week and a half all I have been thinking about is dip. I have extreme craves and thoughts about leaving killthecan just to dip from time to time. I want it so bad and my friends tell me just dip on special occasions, don't buy a tin only take it if it's offered, stuff like that. I know it doesn't work that way and I'm not going to be the dumbass that leaves, this quit is extremely hard but I'm putting up a fight. I can do this. If it wasn't for you guys I'd be dipping right this minute. You guys are my only hope right now. Day 32 and craving it, what is going on.What's going on is you're not in the right mindset. You gotta dump those 'friends' for now. Stay the fuck away from them, and their poison.

That includes kicking back with some beers right now. Bad idea. You can drink beers with your buds ina couple weeks.
You need to fucking man up and take this head on. There is nothing passive about Quitting.
I've said it before - QUITTING IS NOT A SPECTATOR SPORT! PARTICIPATION IS REQUIRED!
If you are not making the conscious decision every second of every day for the next few months to not dip, you are setting yourself up for failure.
Protect your Quit. Nothing else matters right now. Nothing.
I know you got my digits. You should use them more, than letting yourself get too close to a cave you can't come back from it.
Own this.
This is when you find out if you really want this. Every one of us quitters had the same thoughts. Every damn last one of us! I remember those days like they were yesterday and every now and then I still have a stupid addict thought pop in my brain. Today ... I crush any thought that would steer me back to the evil can. I'm not having it!!!Quote from: Nolaq^^^Wise words.Quote from: gb321The past week and a half all I have been thinking about is dip.

Own it, or be owned. You were not born with dip in your mouth. You don't need it.
This is all about control. Managing your urges will lead to benefits in other parts of your life. Failure to manage this will result in death. This is all about control.
We've talked a lot, Ross. The ball is in your court. At this point you need to be building anger at what you have wasted - not sitting around wishing you were dipping with your buddies.
Own it or be owned. NOLAQ and I can say this with certainty - we WERE owned. Now we own it.
You can do this Ross. But you have got to move forward...
Quitting is a march. During a March you may have stretches where you have an uphill slog and you think you can't go on, but if you focus on taking one step at a time don't look at the hill and don't think about the distance of the March, you'll soon get to an easier stretch, or better yet a downhill track. As your March of quit goes on you will have more and more downhill stretches and less uphill ones, but you have to approach it one step at a time either way. Right now it seems that all you can see is the hill in front of you. So just keep your head down and concentrate on one step at a time. Believe me, your terrain will change soon.

My advice is to remember why you came here. You came here because you were owned and your life sucked. Mine did too. These early days build character but you have to power thru them using your tools. Battle for your life! Do NOT give in today. ODAAT . Stay close to the site. Keep your word. Stay quit. You can do this.
Today a dumb motherfucker decided to put a tin in my mouth. Luckily I didn't cave, would've sucked. I am still quit today. 34 days today and I'm fucking proud. I'm not letting that shit take over my life again. I'm done and that's a promise.What does Put a tin in my mouth mean?

Nothing absolutely nothing I want more then this quit. 36 days of freedom and feeling alive. I don't know what I'm feeling, but I have to keep my head up and move forward, I can't undo the past so quitting is my only option, I can't undo my dipping days but I can move forward and not dip anymore, more importantly I won't dip today. 36 daysKeep that attitude... You'll win.
Another successful day. Had some triggers while working the scoreboard at a hockey tournament all day today. 36 days ago I would've loved to dip while doing that, but that's the old me. I went through this day without coming close to dip, didn't even see any today and it was much easier. I'm making a few changes for the better.Well done! Forget about the word "loved" when referring to the old you and dip. You were a slave! You dipped because you were a slave and were owned. Today you are not. I love the fact that you can go to a hockey game and enjoy it without having a poison running thru your veins. Nice!

Had a doctors appointment today and when they took my blood pressure they said it was a lot better and it's in the average range. The nurse said that it changed in a good way. I didn't even know it was bad but the last time I saw the doctor was before I quit.Good news GB. Keep us updated brother.

Hello everyone! I quit 6 Mar and this week has been the hardest yet!! I have really felt like getting a can and chewing the whole thing in one sitting!!Craves. Everyone gets those, they are tough buddy. We can handle this together. As long as you stay quit today it'll be fine. Did you write an introduction about yourself and post in June 2015? Keep track of how many days you've been quit and promise not to dip or use nicotine today. One day at a time. Post in my intro whenever you want, I'll be here to help. Pm me or anyone for phone numbers, they help, trust me.
Doesn't seem to help that I have felt short of breath with sinus drainage out of this world and a mucus hack that won't stop!!
Am I the only one to experience these things?
Cave dreams last night. Scariest thing I'm telling you they're terrible. Can't believe I'm 47 days quit this is amazing.Signs that you are healing, and confirmation that you are an addict.

Work landscaping all day today, without dip. I would've loved one right now but not anymore. I won't dip today. 50 days of quit!Congrats on 50 GB! You now know you dont need that poison and you know that you wouldnt have loved it. Don't start romanticizing it now - that's the nic bitch whispering (and we need to keep telling her to STFU.).
Congrats on the 50....checkin in to see how you're doing...glad to see your keeping quit~ Watch out for the crazy 50's...caught me off guard even though I knew it might be coming. At 66 now and it seems to be easing up again. Hang in there.Congratulations on the 50! Concentrate on your quit and helping others. Don't doubt yourself! You've got this, own it, take it, it's yours! Don't fear the bitch, defeat her daily, just like you've been doing! Proud to be quit with you today my friend! Anyone can dip but not everyone can defeat the nic bitch!

8 weeks today. I can't believe I'm 56 days free! It's crazy. I'm sorry I haven't been on much I'm on vacation but I still posted roll all 56 days. Just giving you a quick update. I'm free and I feel it, this is great I can handle myself now without even thinking about dip I love it.Fuck yah GB! I will walk beside any 100% poster! Keep going brother. It gets so much better! Well done so far.
Feels pretty good to win at something for 56 days in a row that your friends around you are losing at, doesn't it Ross? I know that for a while the cravings were intense. Damn addiction!

Follow up. Dentist appointment was excellent, it took half as long as it usually did. Dentist told me I have white teeth, I do an excellent job brushing, and my gums look healthier and better then before. No cavities, no white spots, no gum disease or inflated/irritated/shredded gums! All that and no lecture about oral cancer and smokeless tobacco! This quit couldn't be any better! Six ZeroMan I remember slinking in to the dentist and waiting... Waiting... Hoping the questions and the lectures didn't start. Sometimes they did. Sometimes they didn't... But they should have!

Today was a huge win. Huge. Nice 60 GB.
It's been 9 weeks and things have been easy but something tells me to go back into dipping and yeah I get a few craves but I don't want to. A small part of me wants to get back into it but every other cell in my body is saying no. Nicotine is trying so hard to get back into my life but I'm not letting it today. I'm playing some golf with friends tomorrow and they both dip a lot, they know I quit and they accept that. I promised today I wouldn't use it and my name will be on that roll call list tomorrow. 63 days strong tomorrow I'll be another day stronger but we will worry about that when it comes. Have a good night boysProud to quit with you today sir.
You will play golf better without it... Just watch the roller coaster of emotional hell your buddies will ride tomorrow on the course.Quote from: gb321It's been 9 weeks and things have been easy but something tells me to go back into dipping and yeah I get a few craves but I don't want to.

It's been a few days since I've updated this..Well, gb, you certainly stepped on your crank a few times getting out of the gate, but it seems like you are not marking time on it. You're well on your way, bro.
Today I sit here at 70 days free of nicotine. I look back and I notice how much I struggled at first, I'm happy the fog and withdrawal symptoms have passed but I realize that besides those being gone I still struggle the exact same amount that I did on day 3. 5. 37, 58, and today. The physical part has passed but I still have the same meantal struggle that I did back at day 5. Had to get that off my chest but I am now able to deal with my craves like a good quitter. Dip doesn't appeal to me anymore but caves are still killer. Sometimes I get scared that I will cave but then I open my phone and look at roll and look at my name and notice that I won't only let myself down, I'll let this whole site down. That's all I have to say right now sorry I'm just very proud of myself for making it this far.
You know what's worse then being around people who dip? Being around people who smoke. Yeah dip is bad but at least it's not as annoying to the public or as noticeable. I felt the need to say this because yesterday my friend who doesn't dip decided to pull out a black and mild and light it up next to me. It smelled horrible and the smoke was everywhere. We were outside on a bench and I immediately had to get up the second he lit it. I don't understand how people can actually continue to hurt themselves by using tobacco when all it does to you is kills you slowly. I just can't understand it. Not only that but smoking affects everyone around them too. Secondhand smoke and stuff etc. I can't stand it, it drives me crazy. I had to stand about 10 feet away from him. They can hurt themselves but I will cure myself. I stand here at 71 days free of nicotine in general and I'm so proud of that.Seeing some clown with a lip full of shit walking around is pretty noticeable, annoying and pathetic. My brother was sitting next to a guy spitting into a big clear beer cup at a tigers game. He said he was going to throw up because of the look and smell of that festering cup of sewer. He actually switched seats with me and made me sit next to the disgusting slob. It was nasty as fuck. And I used to be that guy.

Don't glorify that shit one iota. It's bad news top to bottom and side to side.
Quit on...
The days are really adding up fast. I can proudly say that everything is so much easier. I really enjoy being free and I can actually feel a huge difference in a lot of things. If you haven't quit yet then man you're missing out.Gb you're doing great! Hang in there. Damn proud to be quit with you today my brother!

I don't understand why people try to make an excuse to cave. It makes me pretty upset and almost hurt inside that someone decided to give up. Yeah caving is actually giving up one way or another. Caving isn't only using it again it's much more than that and if anyone cares to hear what I have to think, shoot me a pm or comment on here. I just want to say that I am on 89 days and I know I can only promise not to use it today but I can honestly say that I believe I that if I have made it this far, 11 days is a piece of cake. I believe I can do it.Tell us more. When a member of your team caved what does it mean to you?
I feel betrayed. He didn't only let me and theorist of the group down, he let himself down. Probably his family and friends too. When someone makes it that far into the quit, we know that another day can't be that hard. (We all know that we make quitting seem a lot harder then it really is) I know that addiction is hard but why would you come here to make it that far and give up? You came here because you knew how bad tobacco really is for you. That's from my point of viewQuote from: gb321I don't understand why people try to make an excuse to cave.

As for Kidd, you can make every excuse you want but nothing is really stopping you from overcoming any addiction or problem you have. You have free will and you pretty much choose to continue feeding yourself poison and sipping on grandpa's old cough medicine. You don't need any of those things. He made a bad decision to start but he can make the right decision to stop both of the problems at the same time. We have an alcohol quit form too. Stupid ass.
Gb in short 151 days quit one thing I've learned, if you really want this thing called freedom then it's yours but you've got to be the man or woman and walk the walk not just talk the talk! We can chew everyone's ass off everyday that misses Roll call but you can't make them do it. They have got to know every morning when there feet hit the floor, they were use to grabbing there tin, so now it should be easy to think hey I'm not dipping anymore so I need to make my daily promise to my brothers and sisters and post roll EDD! Yes I hold myself as well as my brothers accountable but it ultimately boils down to I'm doing this for me and then I will check on my brothers and sisters! And always take what only you need here, leave the rest the next fellow may need it! As usual my friend damn proud of you and proud to be quit with you today!Quote from: gb321Nice GB. NICE.Quote from: worktowinI feel betrayed. He didn't only let me and theorist of the group down, he let himself down. Probably his family and friends too. When someone makes it that far into the quit, we know that another day can't be that hard. (We all know that we make quitting seem a lot harder then it really is) I know that addiction is hard but why would you come here to make it that far and give up? You came here because you knew how bad tobacco really is for you. That's from my point of viewQuote from: gb321I don't understand why people try to make an excuse to cave. It makes me pretty upset and almost hurt inside that someone decided to give up. Yeah caving is actually giving up one way or another. Caving isn't only using it again it's much more than that and if anyone cares to hear what I have to think, shoot me a pm or comment on here. I just want to say that I am on 89 days and I know I can only promise not to use it today but I can honestly say that I believe I that if I have made it this far, 11 days is a piece of cake. I believe I can do it.Tell us more. When a member of your team caved what does it mean to you?

Glad to be on your team.
Well here it is, 100 days. Yes I'm extremely proud of myself but it doesn't actually feel different at all. I'm still struggling, just not as bad. I'm still quitting, it's just not as hard. I made it here and I will continue to post here. Thank you for everything you guys have done to help me. Without kill the can, there's no way I would be 100 days free right now.Whst a great day! 100 days is such an accomplishment. But even more so for a young buck. I don't know the stats, but I bet that 5% of dudes under 25 make it to 100 days. What makes you different from them? Well... You caved early on and had a restart - which was where you sacked up and really followed the plan. You became a leader, Ross. You posted a lot on the intros. You posted daily in your group, and are active in your group. You text others like a madman. You supported others. You are doing this the right way!
Wow. I'm shocked because of that. I'm probably the least selfish person anyone will ever meet but I like to read all of that about me and actually know that it's all true. Thank you very muchQuote from: gb321Well here it is, 100 days. Yes I'm extremely proud of myself but it doesn't actually feel different at all. I'm still struggling, just not as bad.

HOF is such a great day. You work so hard with that goal in mind, but after HOF things get a little dicey. Quite a few members of the group will fall off, there might be some group drama, but the only people that fail after HOF are the ones that stop posting their promise every day. Why people leave after HOF is a mystery. I guess some people are just dumb? Kind of on the same note, there is always a dangling carrot of "it gets better". Well, my first real "better" was around 150. It was like a light switch turned on then. There were 2 more of those "better" moments later, but my point is that I think we are still detoxing up to 100. Life will get better - craves become much less frequent and you learn to manage them. 100 is great, but there is more greatness ahead.
I have only picked one other young guy to support since I've been on this site, because as my screen name implies - I hate to lose. But you were a winner from day 1. It is an honor to quit with you today, and I look forward to many more milestones of celebration. I hope you celebrate today by taking the tins of a couple of your friends and dumping them. Ha.
Well gb, Wow! Congratulations! Damn proud of you! I'm at 162 and it's getting a little better everyday. It's worth every damn second and I will not look back today! Damn proud to be quit with you and I'm here 24-7 if you need me ever!Quote from: worktowinWow. I'm shocked because of that.

I have something to get off my chest. It's going to be hard but I have to say it.GB, don't be an idiot. You have made the HOF and you are thinking of throwing all that hard work away? Some friends you have there. They should all be lining up to kick your ass. Why don't you call Worktowin and ask his permission to go back on your word. You should be fucking ashamed of yourself for even thinking this. Check yourself young man! You should know by now that you can never have just one. Pull your head out of your ass!
Many of you know that I am young. I've been on summer vacation for almost 2 weeks now and it made me think about how all of my friends are dipping and smoking and it made me think of how fun last summer was. Technically tobacco made last summer one of the most enjoyable memorable summers of my life. I want to dip once in a while but I know the second I put it in my mouth I will a) regret it badly b) get hooked and fall back into my old shoes again or c) actually control it (unlikely) but I need help. I told my friends that I would do it tomorrow and I have a full tin ready to go.
I am too young to do this alone. Help.
I once went to a management class where they handed out boomerangs.

What the hell is this? That's a sorry ass excuse to cave. I'm 24 years old and happy as fuck to be free. Throw that shit away.

I will be sending my friend Traumagnet a message and asking him to reply directly to your intro. Like many of us, I am certain Todd wishes that he had quit at your young age. Like many of us, he did not. I think you might find his story to be compelling.
100+ days now you have fought with the brothers in the Goon tribe to battle a common enemy. Now, after s few days of summer vacation you are ready to tell them to fuck off and give in? You are better than this dude. Pull your head out of your ass.
I bet on you. I don't pick losers. Post your promise and keep your word.
I'll let Todd tell you what chemo is like.

You already bought a tin? You miss dipp which gave you the best summer of your life?
Maybe you should ask Dood how his decision making process went. Are you still quit? Is this for real?
Good God, GB, come on now. You know that nicotine isn't above lying its ass off to get you to use it. Nicotine, dip, cigarettes, or anything else had NOTHING to do with you having a good summer. Nicotine would LOVE to steal the credit for your good times, but don't be fooled. The people we're around and the activities we do is what makes things pleasurable, not having a mouth cancer timebomb stuffed in your mouth. Think about it.

If you blow this its all your fault. Look at all the amazing support you have. Don't be a puss face without the balls to stand up for your own health now that you are this far.

If you buddies can't deal with the fact you're quit, it's time to get new buddies. It's as simple as that. We're talking about your life here. Either way, you need to review the reasons you quit. Because I'll tell you what, you can go ahead and forget that "maybe I can actually control it" garbage. It isn't "unlikely". It isn't happening. The closest thing any of us can come to controlling this shit is to make our promise and keep it one day at a time. Cut your losses at whatever you paid for the can, dump it down the shitter like you did the day you decided to quit to begin with, and resume fighting this thing.
Im with JKE on this. Im 24 to and could not be happier to be free of the nic bitch. Being young is no excuse to cave. You have made it to the HOF.

Many of you know that I am young. I've been on summer vacation for almost 2 weeks now and it made me think about how all of my friends are dipping and smoking and it made me think of how fun last summer was. Technically tobacco made last summer one of the most enjoyable memorable summers of my life. I want to dip once in a while but I know the second I put it in my mouth I will a) regret it badly b) get hooked and fall back into my old shoes again or c) actually control it (unlikely) but I need help. I told my friends that I would do it tomorrow and I have a full tin ready to go.
I am too young to do this alone. Help.
PS. Just cause your young doesn't mean you can't be strong and get thorough this.
I will be sending my friend Traumagnet a message and asking him to reply directly to your intro. Like many of us, I am certain Todd wishes that he had quit at your young age. Like many of us, he did not. I think you might find his story to be compelling.
100+ days now you have fought with the brothers in the Goon tribe to battle a common enemy. Now, after s few days of summer vacation you are ready to tell them to fuck off and give in? You are better than this dude. Pull your head out of your ass.
I bet on you. I don't pick losers. Post your promise and keep your word.
I'll let Todd tell you what chemo is like.
We are addicts. We can't control it. This pisses me off to no end. Call somebody. I literally can't even understand why this post exists. Pretending that youth is a good excuse is pathetic.
You already bought a tin? You miss dipp which gave you the best summer of your life?
Maybe you should ask Dood how his decision making process went. Are you still quit? Is this for real?
I didn't. I was at 1750 days.
Now I'm at 4.

If you buddies can't deal with the fact you're quit, it's time to get new buddies. It's as simple as that. We're talking about your life here. Either way, you need to review the reasons you quit. Because I'll tell you what, you can go ahead and forget that "maybe I can actually control it" garbage. It isn't "unlikely". It isn't happening. The closest thing any of us can come to controlling this shit is to make our promise and keep it one day at a time. Cut your losses at whatever you paid for the can, dump it down the shitter like you did the day you decided to quit to begin with, and resume fighting this thing.
Dude while we are dumb and young...I'm 27 and glad to be quit. Worst planned cave everQuote from: brettleesIm with JKE on this. Im 24 to and could not be happier to be free of the nic bitch. Being young is no excuse to cave. You have made it to the HOF. Use the tools you have been provided.Quote from: invaderIf you blow this its all your fault. Look at all the amazing support you have. Don't be a puss face without the balls to stand up for your own health now that you are this far. Don't be a fuckingloser, but instead choose to keep winning. It's in your court, it's your life, you get to choose.Quote from: brianlGood God, GB, come on now. You know that nicotine isn't above lying its ass off to get you to use it. Nicotine, dip, cigarettes, or anything else had NOTHING to do with you having a good summer. Nicotine would LOVE to steal the credit for your good times, but don't be fooled.

After re reading everything that I wrote here and waking up with my phone blown up my texts from all of you, I came on here to post roll with 3 new phone numbers in my pm inbox and probably 15 replies here. After all this I thought it over. "Wow what a dumbass I was, that was because of one big crave" Whoever thinks 100 is the magic cure is completely in for the surprise of their life. 100 is not a cure, it's a milestone. I want every new guy to read my whole introduction page and then tell me 100 is a cure. Last night was 109 and I woke up with 110 feeling as miserable as day 1. This absolutely sucks and whoever thinks 100 makes you any different than a guy who's posting a day 4 today is beyond wrong. I am still struggling like Brian, Lumberjack Tim, jacobg, worktowin, hawseman, and everyone else on this site or anyone else who is quitting nicotine. I'm not giving up my gums, my teeth, my health, or my life. I was raised and taught to do what your mind tells you, not what your friends tell you. Peer pressure is what got me into tobacco and now look at me dragging myself out and finally getting my head out of my ass and doing the right thing for me.Bro I so remember my buddies in school peddling that stuff to make themselves feel better. I so wish I was as strong as you are back then. I'd literally be a millionairre.
Thank you and I am proud to quit with all of you today, tomorrow, or next April. Today is just another plus 1.
Way to fight, GB! Seems like you have a lot of people vested in your quit and success here at KTC. Try to remember the first time you put a dip in.... or maybe the biggest nicotine buzz you've ever got, depending on if you smoked before switching to dip... how did you feel? I remember frolfing one Spring day and put the smallest, most pussified dip in my lower lip and almost fell to the ground! I was queasy and lightheaded for the next 30-45 minutes. Think of that as some good ol' summer FUN. Nothing like a relaxing round of frolf with disgusting carcinogenic cat turd in your mouth... constantly spitting on the ground or swallowing.... don't you love that gut uneasiness you got? Like you had to take a big shit while out in the nature following around a frisbee? Or the feeling of being on the brink of puking in front of friends and strangers? After 2 or 3 times of feeling just plain awful, we got used to the nicotine, and the "FUN" was really the awesome things we did while indulging in our nasty addiction... the friends, the atmosphere, the activities.... that nasty SHIT in a can was a hindrance if anything. We liked it because it CURBED OUR WITHDRAWALS FROM THE DISGUSTING, EXPENSIVE SHIT WE WERE FEEDING OURSELVES.Quote from: gb321After re reading everything that I wrote here and waking up with my phone blown up my texts from all of you, I came on here to post roll with 3 new phone numbers in my pm inbox and probably 15 replies here.

So GB, what did you do with that tin you had ready to go? You got plenty of numbers, including mine, you want to get something off your chest, use them. You are a grown man, so spare us the bullshit excuse that you are young.Tin is gone. I thought it over I'm staying around here instead of committing suicide with tobacco
Good job. I quit once in my younger days (31 now). Went back at to it at a party with friends.... Look up and 6 years later I was hiding dip from my wife and four girls! Killing my self slowly. 100 days is just a first step in a lifetime of quit. You can NEVER go back. Not even for as quick bum off a buddy at a party. PM me if u need anything!Quote from: ChristopherJSo GB, what did you do with that tin you had ready to go?

Good don't be a stupid ass we all have set backs its what we do when we get the set back that makes us men/women. You can cry or fight with every moral fiber you have....I see a lot of heavy hitters here already you can consider yourself blessed... I told another quitter here I have tried quitting and I have tried chemo I prefer quitting (he left I guess he wants chemo)... you think quitting is tough lemme tell you friend if it wasn't for the grace of God and the thousands of quitters here I would have fallen. Chemo is no fucking joke if dip is about to break your back you might as well opt out of chemo and just let it take you. So think of what you type before you hop on here again and say you had the most enjoyable time ever the summer you chewed because from where I am standing that aint enjoyable....I get to get up each day and see the sun and hear the birds chirp and get to talk to my friends and family that is the most enjoyable and I have not squandered a day since my diagnosis... Everyday I get up and ask the Lord what are you going to teach me today....what are you going to let me see differently today....I'm going to stay quit. I thought I made up my mind to stay quit before you posted that but not I know I'm staying quit. I've seen radiation, and other treatments. I've seen hospice. I've seen a lot of it and after reading that it made me think. I'm happy quit. I guess I just had a really bad crave. It's over now I'm all set. Thanks for the support.
SO next time you get to hankering for a chew think do I like shitting my guts out in the middle of the night, do I like having weirdest fucking dreams ever, do I like to be hit with some nerve spark that hits so hard in the sternum that it pops you out of bed only to spasm your back out from your neck to your ass...and your wife has to help you get back into bed. Do I like feeling like there is something hammering my prostate when I get to where I need a bowel movement...do I like running around with a black and maroon murse with chemo drugs in it all weekend do I like trying to work on things around the house with a tube coming out of my chest that is dumping poison into my body....do I like being so tired my eyes just shut and don't open no matter what....do I like hiccups all up until 2 hours before I am to go to work...That there is free school I just provided you.... dip free or chemo you pick!

Went fishing for a few hours today with my friend. Landed 4 bass. I had a tiny crave which lasted no more than 10 seconds, seriously. It's amazing that I can say that. Last year if I was fishing, I was dipping. I've realized that fishing without a dip is just as fun as fishing with a dip, if not better. Stay quit my friends -gb321 (121 days)Great job gb you can have as much fun without dipping and save your life in the mean time!
Nice update Ross. It gets better from here!!!Quote from: gb321Went fishing for a few hours today with my friend. Landed 4 bass. I had a tiny crave which lasted no more than 10 seconds, seriously.

Congratulations on 150 days of freedom!!! It keeps getting better dude - one day at a time.As always gb damn proud of you! Keep it going young man! I quit with you every day!
You inspire a lot of us by your wisdom in youth. Proud as hell to quit with you today!
6 months GB!Gb 6 mnths you are the man! Don't change anything, it's working! Proud of you! Quit on!
Very proud to be on this ride with you. Enjoy this milestone!
Pab - we were a bit premature with our congratulations. I just got a text from GB321 that he is wasted and just smoked a cigarette. Kid just threw 180 days away. He isn't going to buy a tin, however. He might smoke a cigar once in a while while fishing. And someday he will be back.Unbelievable! Get your head out of your ass GB321 and get back here. Not wanting to face the accountability of your choice is not a good reason to choose a life that leads to regret and death. You fucked up! A man would own his mistakes and pick himself back up. Don't be a bigger ass then you already have been today. Your promise on roll today was shit. Your future doesn't have to be if you face this.
Unfuckingbeliveable.

What the hell is this?? 180 days in and throws it away for a cig of all things. That's like cheating on your girlfriend with your sister. After all those support posts GB I would have thought you were getting it. Hope you come back before it's too late. 6 months is a helluva thing to waste, but it'd be worse if you never got to post another day 1.Quote from: worktowinPab - we were a bit premature with our congratulations.

Hi everyone,GB you're young and it's not to late to get back in here,yes everyone here will drill your ass, me included ,but think about the alternative ,so drink the kool-aid it's hard mentally but the alternative is physically altering changes and possibly death.
If you haven't already heard, Friday, August 28th I caved knowingly and willingly what I was doing. I not only wasted my time but I wasted yours. I wasted the time of each and every single one of you. I had the tools I needed to stop my addiction but I let them slip away from me.
I haven't been around here as much as I used to be and that is one of the reasons that caused me to fail once again.
This is my second cave and it is much worse than my first one.
I made it exactly 6 months but sadly on that same day (Day 183) I chose to smoke 2 cigarette butts and right after, pack 2 dips.
I let myself down, and I let every one of you down. I failed to keep my word to all of you and failed to keep the promise that I to myself.
It's terrible that this happened but I have accepted defeat and am moving forward. That being said, I am not going to buy a tin or buy a box of squares. I am not letting my addiction continue any longer.
It's not worth it to get back into nicotine.
Thank you for all you have given me.
I am sorry
Sincerely, gb321
Defeated? Dude you KNOW of a way to quit that works. Choosing to stay away from KTC is the same to me as choosing to fail purposefully. Quitting is hard, you know that. But accepting defeat will only be harder for you as you get older. Take your lumps and get to quitting. The alternative as my favorite elder (Pab) said is ultimate death.Quote from: gb321Hi everyone,GB you're young and it's not to late to get back in here,yes everyone here will drill your ass, me included ,but think about the alternative ,so drink the kool-aid it's hard mentally but the alternative is physically altering changes and possibly death.

Quitting is hard, you know that.But it's not impossible. You can't tell me all that hard work wasn't worth it. You can't possibly tell me those 2 lips were worth it. I've quit for weeks multiple times in the past and those first few dips back were so bad I felt like dying. I can't imagine throwing 6 months away for two awful dips.
What happened?Is he planning to come back?
Why did it happen?
What are you going to do differently?
Some bad ass quitters, like Pab, Rdad, and idwc have pumped a lot of support your way. Make their investment in you a good one. Don't be the next Curt Schilling.
GB 321 Posted in June Goons Dec 2015 this morning:I call "bullshit"...
I've made my decision to come back to kill the can and join you guys again. I failed once again yesterday. I let myself down.
What happened?
This one should get you guys going... Well Friday, August 28 on day 183I was out with friends enjoying a nice chill drunk and all of a sudden I got the urge to dip. My friend was smoking a cigarette and I asked if I could kill it. Without even acknowledging any of you, I took it and smoked the rest of it. Well me being drunk (obviously not an excuse) though to myself well since I already caved why don't I ask my friend jack for a nice dip? I already caved right? 25 seconds later I have a dip of skoal mint in my mouth. My best friend has a tin too, one of my favorite kinds, so I hooked the first lip and took one of his. The first friend that let me kill his cigarette is smoking another one by now. He asked me if I wanted this one to. Hey sure why not?! I'm on fire tonight!! Well here we are 2 weeks later. Yesterday afternoon I was with 2 friends they were dipping. This time I soberly let myself fail by taking "just one." Yeah you guys know how that goes....
Why?
I hate to say that I knew it would happen eventually. Anyways I could feel myself slipping away slowly. I am an addict like each and every single one of you. I was posting roll, then not returning to killthecan until the next day to post roll and ghost. I thought I had it in the bag but I guess not. I realize that I am addicted badly to nicotine. I need to quit before it gets worse. I have failed but thats what happens in life. I set myself up for failure. I know I should've reached out but I didn't.
What am I going to do differently.....
I am going to give this one more shot. I need to quit for good. I will post roll every day, first thing. I am going to stay connected and stay as active as I can. I apologize ahead of time if I am not online all day every day because of my schedule. (Inbox me if you're curious) I have decided to get back on grinds coffee pouches in case of emergency. I will now use killthecan and all of its resources like I should. This site is a privilege and I am not taking any of this for granted. Thank you all and I apologize for letting you all down.
June brothers I apologize for wasting your time, letting you all down, and most of all not keeping my word. That's what got me the most. I 110% guarantee you that I am a man of my word. On August 28, I failed to keep my promise and I will never forget that. Once again I am sorry.
Thank you for your time.

You're gonna "give it one more shot"!?!
Go away and take the taint of your weakness with you. This is not a try and try again site. One and done. That's how you really quit. I feel nothing of substance in your post above, dude. Nothing. This is, what?... you're 2nd/3rd time caving?
Buh-bye.
This is not the place for you to "try" quitting again. Yes, you need to quit but KTC doesn't need the lame example you keep "trying" to set forth. Your post pisses me off and these new guys fighting tooth and nail need better fuel for their fire. Go try again elsewhere... KTC is for real quitters.

The first friend that let me kill his cigarette is smoking another one by now. He asked me if I wanted this one to. Hey sure why not?! I'm on fire tonight!! Well here we are 2 weeks later. Yesterday afternoon I was with 2 friends they were dipping. This time I soberly let myself fail by taking "just one." Yeah you guys know how that goes....
Why?
I hate to say that I knew it would happen eventually. Anyways I could feel myself slipping away slowly. I am an addict like each and every single one of you. I was posting roll, then not returning to killthecan until the next day to post roll and ghost. I thought I had it in the bag but I guess not. I realize that I am addicted badly to nicotine. I need to quit before it gets worse. I have failed but thats what happens in life. I set myself up for failure. I know I should've reached out but I didn't.
What am I going to do differently.....
I am going to give this one more shot. I need to quit for good. I will post roll every day, first thing. I am going to stay connected and stay as active as I can. I apologize ahead of time if I am not online all day every day because of my schedule. (Inbox me if you're curious) I have decided to get back on grinds coffee pouches in case of emergency. I will now use killthecan and all of its resources like I should. This site is a privilege and I am not taking any of this for granted. Thank you all and I apologize for letting you all down.
June brothers I apologize for wasting your time, letting you all down, and most of all not keeping my word. That's what got me the most. I 110% guarantee you that I am a man of my word. On August 28, I failed to keep my promise and I will never forget that. Once again I am sorry.
Thank you for your time.

You're gonna "give it one more shot"!?!
Go away and take the taint of your weakness with you. This is not a try and try again site. One and done. That's how you really quit. I feel nothing of substance in your post above, dude. Nothing. This is, what?... you're 2nd/3rd time caving?
Buh-bye.
This is not the place for you to "try" quitting again. Yes, you need to quit but KTC doesn't need the lame example you keep "trying" to set forth. Your post pisses me off and these new guys fighting tooth and nail need better fuel for their fire. Go try again elsewhere... KTC is for real quitters.
I'm bringing your intro to the top to point out your commitment to stay as active as possible. Are you doing that?
You know how to succeed. You post your promise. You keep your word. And you reach out when you need help. You build a team that you will not let down. I have about 40 numbers in my phone (including you and AJ) of Ktc members. I let myself down for years ... But the very thought of having 40 people (including you and AJ) type stuff in my intro like AJ did above me is enough to push me through any craves or tough times I might have. Is it enough for you?
Get active! Grinds and substitutes will help. Your commitment and hatred of nicotine will make you succeed.
Weak.Quote from: worktowinCoukdnt agree with AJ any more.Quote from: AppleJackGB - day 4 is here.Quote from: worktowinGB 321 Posted in June Goons Dec 2015 this morning:I call "bullshit"...
I've made my decision to come back to kill the can and join you guys again. I failed once again yesterday. I let myself down.
What happened?
This one should get you guys going... Well Friday, August 28 on day 183I was out with friends enjoying a nice chill drunk and all of a sudden I got the urge to dip. My friend was smoking a cigarette and I asked if I could kill it. Without even acknowledging any of you, I took it and smoked the rest of it. Well me being drunk (obviously not an excuse) though to myself well since I already caved why don't I ask my friend jack for a nice dip? I already caved right? 25 seconds later I have a dip of skoal mint in my mouth. My best friend has a tin too, one of my favorite kinds, so I hooked the first lip and took one of his.

This guy is no quitter, he's a stopper. He's no addict, he's a willing slave.
Fuck this "one more try" shit. The difference between you the quitters here is that we have closed the door. There is no "it would happen eventually". What horseshit.
Good luck to the newbies that get stuck walking your sad ass through the fog again, for what, the 3rd time now? Fuck that. Best of luck "giving it one more shot"..... How can you possibly fail? Yikes.
It's hard as hell for me to stop this addiction. I slipped away last time but I'm giving it my all this time. I'm ordering grinds coffee pouches. Those things are like crack cocaine they're so good. Thanks for all the comments, get ready for me to prove you wrong.It's hard but not impossible GB. Try to change the mindset from escaping slavery to embracing freedom. It's easier said than done, but focus on the positives. It makes the battle much easier to deal with daily.
I have ordered some grinds coffee pouches. I am learning to hate tobacco more and more every day.One day at a time you can regain trust and take back your life. Keep it up man. It is the smartest thing you've ever done. Ever.
Big win for me yesterday. I was out with friends and everyone was smoking Marlboro Reds cigarettes. I'm against tobacco and I've taught myself to hate it now. Anyways I hate these things more than I hate dip. Both are awful but cigarettes have secondhand smoke and it was everywhere. I could barely breath. I'm telling you I was holding my breath and walking away every time a little smoke blew my direction. Well later on everyone's pressuring me to dip. Literally forcing me to. I said no and didn't do it, knowing I made a promise and I was not letting you guys (or more importantly myself) down. I feel so proud of myself. I also reached out to Randall, and worktowin last night as this was happening. It feels good to be free. I'd rather have my vanilla or caramel grinds coffee pouches anyway.All tobacco sucks. Cigarettes intrude on others, so I always considered my use of Kodiak to be much more courteous. Except for the thousands of spit bottles and cans I threw out the window. Or the time taken from and lies told to everyone to hide. Tobacco is very selfish. And your friends are playing a very dangerous game.

You should feel proud, and I'm proud for you too. I've got to ask something just out of curiosity, though...
They just ask me to do it. After telling them no and reminding them that I've quit, they knock it off. I'm just a pussy for not doing it according to them. I don't want to do it. When I caved, I realized that it wasn't all that great at all really. It made me realize that I did in fact hate it. Right now I'm going through the cancer scare all over again.Quote from: gb321Big win for me yesterday. I was out with friends and everyone was smoking Marlboro Reds cigarettes.

Are these guys you're hanging out with going to get in the way of your quit? I mean, it's bad enough simply being around people who smoke and dip. That alone is enough to get the craves going. But if you're saying these guys are actively encouraging you to dip, forcing you as you said, that just seems like a tremendous amount of pressure that's totally avoidable. Personally, I'd steer clear of those dudes if they don't knock that shit off immediately and respect your quit.
I dunno man. Be very careful. You're kicking ass, and I know you got this. You just have to make sure you're in an environment you can succeed in.
Either way, great work using digits and honoring your word!
Day 43,Yes, nicotine sneaks into your dreams. Crazy stuff, but you know what to expect now. You are winning.
Just woke up from awful cave dreams. Terrible. I'm shaken up and scared. Ran out of grinds so I'm going to order more soon. Stay quit.

GB man up and realize you are a man and nothing is impossible if you put your heart and soul into it!

I agree 100 % with Invader. Don't put yourself in the nearly impossible situations you have been. Also, you Do need to OWN IT. It is your quit and you need to protect it like you protect your balls. It is just instinct to protect yourself if you know you are about to get kicked square in your nuts. Isn't it? Your quit needs to be protected like you protect things that are most important to you!Quote from: pab1964Man...

You're defeating yourself. You're still afraid. You're still "trying" to quit. You're still "hoping" to make it stick. You're still dependant on a crutch. I mean, damn man! You've been at this since February and you're still trying to get over the hump? I don't get it... when are you going to control your Quit? When does the man in you step past all this and own it? I know it's hard bro... I had to buck 25 years of olympian nicotine ingestion to make it to where I am. Yes, it was hard as hell but I made and OWNED that decision from the get go... I STILL don't think you have. I was against you being allowed to "try" here again. I'm sick of the pats on the ass and "give 'er another go!" shout outs. But... here you are. So...
Own it. Stop being a wuss...
Get. It. Done.
50 days today. Feel accomplished. I'm proud of myself and proud of all of my brothers. I couldn't have done it without the brotherhood I have on this site. Stay quit!I'm quit with you today GB321. You've reached out and owned the last 50 days. I look forward to celebrating a lot more milestones with you.
-gb321 Day 50
Day 63,Quit on GB321. I'm quit with you today.
Haven't updated in like 2 weeks. Anyways, it's going really well for the most part. No craves at all, never think about it. Two of my friends are now trying to quit too which makes it a little easier. One is doing the cold turkey no nicotine at all, the other bought a vape which is nicotine but not tobacco, it sucks but it's almost a start in his mind. I'm personally against it because I have to stand 10 feet away from him so I don't have his Vape smoke or whatever you want to call it blowing in my face. I found out last week that my uncles father (not grandfather, other side of the family) was diagnosed with cancer. It is stage 4 and he has about 2 years left. This made me upset because even though I don't see him often, he is a wonderful guy to have a conversation with. He quit smoking a while back and I believe that may have something to do with it. I hate smokers, why do it man? Not only does it hurt you, it affects everyone around you too. Whenever someone smokes and I come across them, I hold my breath until I'm far enough away that I can breath without inhaling the taste of chemicals. Secondhand smoke is nasty, one of my biggest pet peaves. Anyways quit on my friends! - gb321

Vaping is a joke. It is not possible to look like a bigger douchebag than to have a big vape thing hanging out of your mouth.
Unless, of course, you have tobacco spit all over your clothes.
A lot of people are watching you. A lot of people are watching your quit with a guarded eye. Keep posting those days. Keep winning. And avoid loser douchebags.
Day 70,Your friends tripped you up the last time right gb321? If they ever offer you a can or a cigarette just drop it on the floor and step on it!. B)B
Friends are actually starting to accept the fact that I'm quitting. Tonight I didn't get asked to have a dip or cigarette. It feels great to know my friends support my quit.
-gb321
I quit with you as well my friend. I get offered a lot and people smoke and dip around me a lot. I have to stand away when they do it because it disgusts me. All I can say is I'm glad to be quit.Quote from: gb321Day 70,Your friends tripped you up the last time right gb321?

I'm glad to see you succeeding in our December 15 group. Shortly we will be into our Hall of Fame month. That will be a reflection back on the 100 days each of us has accomplished. But it is just a milestone, you still need to be on our roll EDD.
I quit with you today!
December is a bad ass group. You've had a bumpy ride, GB, but you are also in shoes a lot younger than the ones many of us have on. I would do anything to travel back in time and smack the smart ass GB aged worktowin around s few times before he bought those 9,000 cans of Kodiak. I wish I were as smart as you, but I'll just say this ... You inspire me. I'm watching you quit the right way.Quote from: Stranger999I quit with you as well my friend.

Day 85,I've got a story for you!
All is going good. I had a bad cave dream a few days ago but I woke up knowing that I was still quit and still strong. I've been busy lately so I haven't had a lot of free time. I'm going to my friends party tonight and it's going to be a blast. People will be dipping and smoking but I won't be. Quit on my friends.
-gb321
Man. I never got this bad, but I wasn't far off. I'm proud as hell that I am no longer close to this. I am an addict but I am clean. I will never again be selfish enough to fill my lip up at the expense of my family. Love this story W2W, even if I feel badly for this family. I am no longer "that guy".Quote from: gb321Day 85,I've got a story for you!

Tonight my wife and I went shopping at a really really nice indoor shopping mall. This place looks like a Christmas explosion happened. Multistory tall wreaths, a big inflatable snow globe you can go in for pictures, all kinds of stupid. There were families with strollers. The women all looked like they were in heaven. The kids eyes didn't know where to stop. Most of the men were even having fun - because their families sure as heck were. Except...
There was this young family - I'm guessing mid 20s. One little boy around three that had arms and legs moving in all directions. Another boy probably around 6. The lady was trying to get them arranged in front of a wreath to get a family picture. The kids were being kids - lots of visual stimulation there and they were hard to corral. The dad was PISSED and was screaming at both kids and her. Loud enough that people were looking at him. He had some serious rage.
The woman was trying hard to get her family arranged. He wasn't helping at all. Yelling, but just standing there. My wife was in a store spending money on something she didn't need, and I just stood there taking it all in...and then, GB, as she is trying to arrange her 2 little boys just so in order to ask a stranger to take a picture of her family to tuck in her Christmas cards next week, this jackass husband pulls out a ton of Copenhagen and shoves his lip full. She ssid "what are you doing, we are getting a family picture for Christmas"? And he screamed "I having a goddamn dip, it is none of your business! These kids are driving me crazy! Let's get this stupid picture done so I can go home." The picture wasn't taken. She corralled the kids and I saw them moving toward the exit escalator. And she was dabbing her eyes when the husband wasn't looking. Which was the whole time... Because he was in his own selfish little world.
You won't be that guy. A lot of us were. But not you.
Proud to quit with you today.
Damn! I'm sure most of us aren't that blatantly disrespectful, but how many times have we put the Nic Bitch ahead of our loved ones? I'm ashamed of all the times I choose Nic over my wife. For 320 days I've had the pleasure of reevaluating my priorities. Thankfully the Nic Bitch isn't on my list. Freedom really is worth any momentary discomfort quitting causes. This is our lives after all.Quote from: worktowinMan. I never got this bad, but I wasn't far off. I'm proud as hell that I am no longer close to this. I am an addict but I am clean.

8 days left until I reach the hall of fame for the second time. In my quit I'm only half way there. I never wrote a hall of fame speech when I hit the hall with June 2015. For me 100 days isn't my first goal, 184 days is. That being said on day 184 is when I hit the hall in my mind, that's when I will write my first HOF speech.One day at a time, One day at a time! That's the goal. Everything else is a bonus! Quit on
Listen to Pab GB - don't think about 184, 1084 or 10,084. Are you quit today? Build that accountability and have all your tools ready.Quote from: gb3218 days left until I reach the hall of fame for the second time. In my quit I'm only half way there.

Keep kicking ass GB. As you've heard many times before, I would give my left nut to go back and do what you're doing.Quote from: pab1964Listen to Pab GB - don't think about 184, 1084 or 10,084.

Do I miss the feeling taste of dip in my mouth? Yes.Dude... I'm gonna be a dick here. If I'm overthinking it, well, so be it.
Freedom. It is so hard to attain. Quite honestly, at ~130 days it is hard to understand or grasp.Quote from: gb321Do I miss the feeling taste of dip in my mouth? Yes.Dude... I'm gonna be a dick here. If I'm overthinking it, well, so be it.
We talk a lot about mindset for a reason. It's a gigantic component in our fight against this addiction. That sentence I've highlighted is telling me yours still isn't right, bro! You absolutely must stop romanticizing what you "think" you miss. Until you develop a heathy level of hate/disgust for that shit... you're just spinning your wheels until you cave again.
For real.
I'm at 1,015 today. Yes... I get the random craves. I mean, c'mon, I abused myself for 25 years. A mere 1,015 days isn't going to heal the scars I inflicted. BUT... the mere thought of buying, packing, pinching, and then stuffing that shit in my face makes me nauseous. Like a physical blow of illness and, thank God! I hate what that shit made me... and made me do. Never. Again.
Be wary, bro. Don't give lip service to fredom... it's too precious.

Shame. Cancer. Waste. Hiding. These are easy to grasp. These are what you have lived over the past few months/years of your life. These are what you are currently missing out on. You miss the taste of tobacco? I sure as shit don't. Some dude at work spit in his trashcan last week and I smelled it and it almost made me sick. When I got done with him and his boss, I'm sure I won't smell that from the trashcan again. It is a disgusting, nasty thing. Drool running down your face. A lip that looks like those whacked out Africans. There is no positive.
You miss the taste? Go buy some smokey mountain and chew away. It won't give you cancer and in a little while when you realize how lame the whole thing is you can just throw it out... cause you won't be addicted.
My 2 cents.

Ok I don't know how to put it. I need help, I feel like I've been slipping away from here. I feel like I can make it on my own but deep down I know I can't. I'm on day 568. I know that even just a few days away from here is all it takes to cave, even this late in a quit. I feel different. I had a cave dream not too long ago. Hell last night I smoked a little weed with my friends, and I hate weed. We passed around a joint. If I keep slipping away could that joint turn into a blunt? Dare I say it even a cigarette? I felt like I had to say I smoked weed because I don't want it to turn into a big problem. No I didn't cave but I feel so detached that I'm scared I might one day. Sorry for this rant it's not like me but I felt like I had something to say so I said it. Stay quit folksToo me its seems to be a slippery slope.

The 5th floor hasn't been smooth sailing for me either. Keep using your tools and you can get past this. Find other reasons to be here besides roll. Swap digits with one of the newer quitters and post roll with them too. The more involved you are the less likely you are to ever leave.Quote from: gb321Ok I don't know how to put it.
