I am a member of several forums and I hate walls of text, so I apologize in advance....
I've been wanting to quit for so long. Cope long cut, started when I was in college and now I'm 33. Wish I would have never tried it in the first place. It is now 2:38pm for me. My last dip was in the car on the way back to the office about an hour and a half ago. I would have had another one or two by now but I ran out. My wife came up to me (she works with me, family business) and told me that I had spent $98 in tobacco in the last two to three weeks. We recently moved to Florida from Georgia. Cope was $3.60 a can back there. Here it's over $5.50.
It was at that moment, about 2pm, that I decided I was going to do something about quitting. I googled on how to quit dip, found this site. I read and wondered if I could do it. I've tried multiple times in the past to no avail. Smokey Mountain worked for a couple of days, but in the end, I gave up. So I ordered some Hooch, after reading the reviews on here. Figured I'd read more when I got home, after I stopped and bought another couple of cans. And I'd buy another couple of cans after that to until the Hooch came in.
But then I came across a couple of intro threads where some people had said they were "going" to quit instead of "quitting". And I read some of the older members posts about giving in instead of starting NOW. Just reading that, I started to nic. My head started to spin. But I've made my decision. I'm done. If I don't do it now, I never will. Another excuse will come up. Even while I'm typing this, I'm reaching for a can, one that isn't even there. Done it 4 or 5 times now. Typing and working in front of the PC, one of my triggers. Driving, another trigger. Video games, both Xbox and PC, another trigger. After eating, another trigger. I go through, excuse me, used to go through 2 cans a day. I think there was about 2 hours out of 18 or so that I was awake where I would have a clean mouth.
Wow, it's only been 2 hours, and i'm already showing craving signs. This is going to be the hardest thing I think I have done in my life. I'm ready to tackle it though. I have always had an addictive personality, no will power. I need to do this not only for my health and my checkbook, but to show myself that I can actually do something that requires some nuts and intestinal fortitude.
I always wondered what support groups do for alcoholics at AA. I've seen TV ads for support groups for smokers. But after reading a few threads, I finally see what the value. Thank you in advance to all who are gonna help me through this.

Thank you in advance to all who are gonna help me through this.
Count me in as one of those guys, bro.
We've all been where you are now, some of us more often than others.
I'm quit with you today, my friend. Feel that.
And my number is now in your PM for you to use if you need to.
Congratulations on your decision.
Make it stick.

wedgie You can quit and the help is here to do it! I'm on day 10 and I can tell you if you read all you can here there is help. Come here to vent and rant and rave were all abunch of fricking addicts and know what you are going through. Watch those CRAVES dont let them cause you to CAVE be prepared know how you are going to handle them when they come. Beware! Dont look any further ahead than today, that is all you have to worry about. Looking further than that becomes overwhelming when the craves and rages come.

Evidently I'm not quite with it today, because i'm not quite understanding how to post roll. I thought I saw someone had a link to a video. Help?

Hope I did it right. Sure I'll get yelled at if I didn't.

No worries! We've all fucked up roll, some more than others.
You worry about getting through TODAY.
One day at a time!
This is the best decision you've made Bro.
Miles - Celebrating 400 days of freedom today!

I have read and re-read the instructions. I work with computers all day and can't figure it out. Perhaps when I am thinking clearer I will be able to understand the roll call instructions.

Sweet bro! I'm with you on a the cravings, but I'm good I stuck a peppermint breath mint in my mouth instead! Now I have minty breath instead of DIP breath!

Great choice, Wedgie!!!
I think the others have covered the important things...Welcome Center, posting roll, exercise, nailing your wife, water...that about covers it. But I have some more.
Quitting forever is really hard. The good news is that nobody is asking you to do that. All we ask you to do is quit for today (post roll) and fight to keep your word. Anybody can go one day, right? Don't think about tomorrow, next week or next year...we'll deal with them when they get here. Just focus on today...right now.
Get angry at tobacco. Get angry at anyone who sells a product designed to seperate you from your family. Read the Kern Family Story (Killthecan.org link at top).
You take the first step, and we've got your back the rest of the way. Just post roll and keep your word. It is that easy, brother!

Evidently I'm not quite with it today, because i'm not quite understanding how to post roll. I thought I saw someone had a link to a video. Help?
I have read and re-read the instructions. I work with computers all day and can't figure it out. Perhaps when I am thinking clearer I will be able to understand the roll call instructions.
It took me a bit to figure it out too, and I consider myself pretty proficient with PC's as well. I don't know why, it's just not intuitive.
Keep working on it. Just make sure you post, someone will fix it for you until you do figure it out.
-
Thanks for the encouragement guys.
@Bean...I think it might have been your post that got me to commit today vs. waiting. You frightened me.

Wedgie
Congrats. Best decision you ever made. Take it from a 41 year old who wished I could speak to me at 33. STOP NOW!
Don't wait another second. DO NOT BE AFRAID. you feel like your life will change and be a giant suck fest without your nic. your wrong. it will be the sweetest freedom you ever tasted.
stay strong. stay quit.
my phone number is in your pm box. use it if you need it.
-
Welcome Wedgie-
Great choice to choose freedom from the can!
Post roll, read, stay close to the site when things are tough.
Reach out to your bros when you need to, give back when you can.
Stay strong, protect your quit. Proud to be quit with you today.
-
And day 2 begins.
Thanks for the PM's guys. Really appreciate it.
-
You can do this Wedgie. I'm quit with you today bro
-
You can do this Wedgie. I'm quit with you today bro
You got this bro!
I am quit with you today!

I'm with you man. I'm dizzy, can't think straight, and pissed. But I am dip free and kickin' its ass. We will stand together and take it down!
-
We will stand together and take it down!
Lee Greenwood just showed up in my head I now have a boner.
That is an awesome way to put shit, Whitey.

Well this morning wasn't too bad, but about noon or so, 24 hours since my last dip.....it's getting bad. My chin is quivering and my jaw is itching and it's tough getting it out of my head.
But i'm still gonna win. Just thought I'd let you guys know.

I'm having a bit of a crave today myself Wedgie. I'm drinking water and I have a bag of sunflower seeds to help me through it. BBQ Frito Lay brand today.
Drink water on those tough days and eat candy, chew gum, anything to keep nicotine off your mind.
Always have a plan....

So I had a rough battle yesterday and today I am all smiles and still quit.
Jiggle your nuts a little and smile. YOU ARE FREE!
(Someone should put that into a song.)
It is hard like a harlot offering a free blowjob. You're not a man if you don't think that its a good deal. But a real man and hero sees the danger and walks.
Think like this. You trade in your, integrity, your knowledge, your money, your freedom, etc. In return, you get temporary buzz.
Every sound investor would walk. Be a sound investor in your life. Start liking yourself enough to stay in control.

When i start feeling weak i read some of the cancer and quitter stories for inspiration, epecially the one about Tom Kerns,it really motivates me to stay quit

Day 8 today, this story is from Day 7....
Backstory: My parents live just about a mile from my wife and I. My wife has health issues where she can't eat without throwing up. Her condition is called gastroparesis if anyone wants to look it up. So it's tough for her to be around food, so I go to eat at my parents house from time to time.
Last night, I stopped to get gas and bought a 6 pack of beer. Figured I'd have a couple with dinner at my parents house. It's been quite a while since i had a beer or two and it sounded tasty. So 3 beers and a steak dinner later, I'm getting ready to leave. My grandmother lives in NY (I'm in FL) and she visits the Indian reservation for cheap tobacco for my mother who smokes hard to find cigarettes. Recently she had been buying rolls of Cope for me. Well there is a box that just came in. 2 rolls of 5 cans of Cope Long Cut with probably a May xx date.
It took every ounce of everything I had to walk out the door without taking just one can. Not a roll, but just one can. I had it in my head that I was going to just pull one big pinch and throw the can out. I'm sure I would have done just that, too. Out of those 2 rolls, I would have had just that one dip.
What got me away from it was that if I could cave this easily, what was going to keep me from running into a gas station when I got gas to get a can, take a fatty, and toss the can in the can at the station? I knew I needed to show strength now or I'd fall every time I had the chance down the road. It would start just like that and then snowball from there.
I've read a few times on here to stay away from drinking because it lessens your inhibitions and makes you weak. I have no doubt that it would have been easy for me to not even think twice about leaving those cans where they were if I was 100% sober.
Bottom line....for all of you who are just starting this journey.....be careful of where you are and who you are with if you are drinking (or even sober and around peer pressure). If you think it's tough fighting craves sober, just wait until you are even just slightly bombed. I am hell bent on staying nic free forever, but a couple of beers almost derailed me in my first week.

Well done Wedgie!
I agree that drinking, particularly early in a quit can make it tougher. I think that is especially true for younger guys.
You stared the bitch down, you didn't blink, you didn't cave. Nice job!

Thanks Tony. Staring it down, good way to put it.

So tomorrow will be 40 days quit for me. It's been a long, but completely fulfilling ride. I'm finding that while I'm enjoying my quit, I'm enjoying helping other people with their journeys just the same.
My key to staying quit has been always having something in the near future to look forward to. Many times it's just looking forward to the next day when I can post roll. I've gotten to know a bunch of my July quit group and the chance to interact with them I don't take lightly. They have helped me and I hope I've helped them.
Also, I look forward to things outside of KTC. Fishing or golfing, my old triggers. I look forward to facing the challenge and the craves head on and knowing that i'm equipped to tackle them.
I can't wait to being to write my HoF speech and thank the people that have gotten me to the point where I am at now.
Stay quit.

Wedgie,
I am so proud of you man! Keep up the good work! The text message are very inspirational.

I was craving a bit today and just started reading introductions. I know why I quit and it helps to read about why others did as well. You and many others are continuous inspirations for my quit. Thank you and stay quit.

Outstanding. That is a great plan.
You get a crave, you hit the site. You read about the other tough as steel mother fuckers who put their word down today. Fighting through the fog, the stress and utter hate of withdrawal.

LetÂ’s play a game.
There is no name to this game. It doesnÂ’t need to have one, sure you can give it a name if you want, but in the end, it doesnÂ’t really matter. The rules and game pieces are very, very simple.
First, the game pieces: There is a great big wheel mounted on a wall, withÂ…letÂ’s sayÂ….5,000 spaces on it. Think of the Price is Right, or maybe one of those wheels you spin where you get a hat or a shirt or a gift card if the wheel stops on the marker. YouÂ’ve seen them at the mall, or a fair, or Las Vegas in the casinos. YouÂ’re wheel will be different than mine. EveryoneÂ’s wheel is different. The health history of your family could limit your wheel to 3,000 spaces. Your personal health could lower it to 1,000 spaces. You might have 10,000 spaces. The thing is, you will never know how many spaces your wheel has until the game is over. To start out, every space on your wheel is green.
Second, the rules to the game: Every day, you get a small gift, as many as you want. These gifts can last as little as 10 minutes or it could last as long as a couple of hours. It could be just a great feeling, the same as you get when you eat a fresh baked cookie. It could be as big as a huge stress relief after taking some exams. Maybe it’s just a pacifying feeling as you take on an 8 hour drive. Some days there are 5 or 6 “gifts”. Some days there are only 1 or 2. But just like the number of spaces on the wheel, everyone’s gifts are different. They are what you make of them. Sure, you can survive life without the gifts, but why wouldn’t you take the easier way? Here comes the rule: for every gift you take, you must spin the wheel. Remember, your wheel is 100% green to start. After each spin, wherever your wheel lands, that space turns to red and an envelope is placed underneath it. You know that the envelopes contain something bad. You’ve heard from other people about the red envelopes….
Third, to win the game: spin the wheel after each gift and land on a green space. The game is over when you land on a red space. No more gifts and you “win” the card that is under the red space.
That’s it. That’s all there is to this game. Sounds simple, right? Would you play this game? It sounds great. Every day, you get to circumvent problems, feel good just for the heck of it, relieve stress, think more clearly, etc. Each gift is the “magic elixir” you need to make your day better. Whatever you need at that moment, voila, the answer appears. Yeah, you are in. Why didn’t you start playing the game before? Before you know it, you can’t live your life without these gifts. These fixes for life’s ills, what would you do without them? You depend on them. You get nervous when you think of going on without them. So you keep playing. Day after day after day, the game and you are one. However, with each spin of the wheel, your green spaces are eaten up. One by one, they slowly fade away. Your green wheel is slowly but surely growing red spaces all over it. Doesn’t matter to you though. The red envelopes loom large, but you need to fix your life. You keep spinning and spinning and spinning…until one day, you finally lose. Your luck has run out and with a dwindling number of green spaces to land on, red has finally hit and your game is over….
As the saying goes, there is no free lunch. The game is a delusion, a figment of your imagination. However, the results are real. Underneath each of those red spaces on your wheel, the envelopes that you “win” are real. Randomly picked, just for you, from a select group of choice items: Mouth cancer. Throat cancer. Pulled teeth. Lost jaws. Dentures. Cut out tongues. For the really lucky ones, death. You knew what was in those envelopes. You knew the chances. You saw the pictures on the web. You heard the stories from family members. Your wife warned you. Your mother warned you. But you played anyway. The odds, what were my odds. Did I check? Did I really know?
LetÂ’s call this game what it really is. A sick and twisted game of Russian Roulette. However instead of a revolver with 6 chambers, we have a really random and gigantic game of whack-a-mole. Is the hammer finally going to land on you? Those green spaces on the wheel were just the lucky times that cancer didnÂ’t hit you like that hammer. The longer you go, the longer you play the game, the better your odds of coming down with a scourge that you may or may not be able to beat.
Are you going to take that chance? Are you going to play the game? I played that game for 15 years. However I decided that my wheel was red enough. I never knew when my luck would run out. I got wise and knew that I was addicted to the game. If you are reading this, you are addicted to the game. Do you still think itÂ’s worth playing? Are you willing to stop spinning the wheel?

My 2 cents that helped me.....I printed this off on 8X10 and have it next to my desk....Also have a copy on my phone and whenever a crave hit....just look for 30 seconds and reflect. That and the Tom Kern Story....Those were my 2 that helped.
Cancer (http://www.killthecan.org/pics/images/cancer036sm.jpg)
110 days today and the craves are less and less as you go....Stay strong and do whatever it takes to get through the crave....the site, read Kern, look at the cancer pics...anything.

Accountability is the core of any quit. You can count on me.

The only person suited for a life of quit is the person who truly wants to be quit. Believe it.
The person who truly wants to quit will take the steps to stay quit. Live it.
The person who takes the steps to stay quit is suited for a life of quit. Know it.

You rock. I love your quit. Great, great job! I live in Savannah. I hope to meet you sometime.

I'm not a father yet, but waking up today on Father's Day made me feel doubly as happy that I'm quit. The number of reasons to be quit is infinitely higher than the reasons to dip. There's actually only one reason to dip; to be a selfish jackass. Over the last 69 days, I have found better and better (and new) reasons to keep that trash out of my mouth, but staying around long enough to father a child and having a jaw to talk to him are two that I came across today.
Quit with you today.

Day 73....I see some of my good friends that I've made over the last 10 weeks starting to hit the second huge milestone. Day 100. Day 1 is the first. Those who are going to be successful quitters and not stoppers know that there is so much more work to do after 100. I look forward to digging the trench with those quitters while the stoppers enjoy a cold beverage.
Actually, everyday is a milestone but our quit lives would be overwhelmed if we celebrated like that. We do acknowledge each day as a milestone by posting roll each day. Those of you who miss roll are missing those milestones. They are just as important as day 100, day 500, etc.

Day 73....I see some of my good friends that I've made over the last 10 weeks starting to hit the second huge milestone. Day 100. Day 1 is the first. Those who are going to be successful quitters and not stoppers know that there is so much more work to do after 100. I look forward to digging the trench with those quitters while the stoppers enjoy a cold beverage.

Sent this out as a text to my peeps. Found it pretty poignant to myself.
As my quit group hits the HoF, let me tell you how awesome it feels to see your fellow quit bros and sistas reach a goal that seemed so unattainable 100 days before. Stick with it!!

Day 92.
Funk has been over for a while. Still enjoying my group hitting the HoF each day. It hasn't been easy guarding my quit each and every day, but I made sure that I was ready to when I had to. Quit plans are underrated, as are having reliable guys you can text when times get rough. Even when I'm bored, I can start a good conversation with any number of guys from several quit groups.
The one thing that binds us all together as quitters makes all of this possible. Realize you are an addict, adapt, and overcome. Adapting means to change your ways, at least in this context. I wasn't much for texting people I didn't know when I first started, but I quickly saw the value. In doing so, along with posting roll, I overcome my addiction each day.
Quit today with all of the quitters out there.

Hey...it rhymed.
It's good to have you around.

As far as those who haven't made it, who gave up, decided that quitting wasn't for them, or that posting roll anonymously on a forum wasn't for them:
They are the 99%.
People who miss roll repeatedly, but still say they want their quit.
They are the 99%.
People who can't take a few extra minutes out of their day to watch their fellow quitters' backs.
They are the 99%.
People who post roll and leave, making their quit as small and meaningless as possible.
They are the 99%.
People who post every day well passed dark with no reason other than that's what they choose to do.
They are the 99%.
I am the 1%.

Day 119...
I'm sitting in a hospital cafe'. This is my second time to this cafeteria, the first time being about 180 days ago or so. That first time, I made sure I bought a coffee, even though I didn't want one. Couple of napkins and I have a good, concealed spitter.
Now, as I'm going through line, I grab a coffee cup. The thought crosses my mind, man...wish I had a dip to toss in. IMMEDIATELY, my first thought went to Cmark, WT, and Roamcountry, the guys I post roll with. In my mind was a perfect screenshot of roll call. Crave went away.
That's how it works. Thats why it works. That's why we stick around, even almost 3 weeks after hitting the HoF. It's also why I will never leave.

Good work Wedge you know we are going to face tempatation reguardless of how we try to avoid it, so over the years I have tried to harden my self by deleberate exposure, you have to know your limit and lay back in the safe zone but all along proving to yourself you can face up to temptation and give it a kick in the ass.you have to expose your self. if you see you can't handle it! call for reenforcement thats what we are for!!!together we are a strong force to be dealt with!!stump33

I don't understand why some people are so excited to quit until they find out they have to actually put a small amount of work? And some people don't know how to quit, so we lay out the roadmap to succcess, yet they toss it in the backseat and take the next left in hopes of finding a landmark?
Let's compare, in order of effort output...
1. You have a can, but you need to get up to find a spit bottle.
2. You need gas, so you run into the store while the car is filling up, fork over cash.
3. On your way home from work/shopping/errands/etc, you don't need gas, but you still need to run in and grab a can, fork over cash.
4. Saturday morning, no can. Drive x minutes to closest gas station, fork over cash.
5. Land in strange city. Drive around looking for gas station that sells your brand, possibly getting lost or spending a signifigant amount of time, fork over cash.
6. 3am, night of a holiday, drive from location to location trying to find an open store, fork over cash.
To attain: 10 min high, stress relief, cancer, etc.
Or...
After spending 5 min registering for free website
1. Get up in the mornin, post roll, free of charge.
2. Get to work, post roll, free of charge.
3. Internet down, send text to friend, free or .10 cents max.
4. Camping/driving/not at home, send text to friend, free or .10 cents max.
5. Craving badly, make phone call or exchange 20 texts, free or $2 max. Or jump in chat on website. Or read random items on website.....free of charge.
6. Not at home, no cell service. Drive 15 minutes or hike for 15 minutes to find reception. Free to $1 including gas.
To attain: life of quit, save money, save your life/health.
When you break down the necessary finances, time, and all out effort required, which do you think is easier? Obviously, some of you like to do things the hard way because you choose to put more effort into dipping. Someone please point out where my logic or math is wrong. I kind of surprised myself at how obvious this was after I was finished. I'm thinking I left something out?
This is for Tcope...
Wedge -=122=- 19. Louisiananimal- day 99 problems but quit aint one
So...on the eve of his HoF day, we find out that Louisianimal likes him some Jay-Z, eh?
Don't play kid, this ain't funny....what you got can't be bought by money.
100 days quit ain't no joke.....listen to what I spoke, don't make me poke
You in da shoulda, let my rhymes smolda....you hear what i'm spittin? You see how i'm quittin?
So now i'm gonna pat you on the back, jump on we cruisin down the track.
Keep settin' an example...hope you like my new sample.
Gangsta not my style, clear of that by a mile......just here to make you smile
So now as i'm done, add your name to the pile.
Don't you go no where, don't be disappearin' into thin air.

I know I’m going to piss off a few people… so here it goes! WTF!!! Everyone please take a look at the spreadsheet and see how many people actually posted roll this weekend! I noticed Morgan, Worms and a few others commented on the lack of effort this group gave this weekend for posting roll. I know everyone’s life gets busy but there is NO REASON for you not to be posting roll!!!! The only good reason I have heard lately is from BrainStrain… he was serving our Country and had no reception in the bush! Here’s a good idea, if you are going to be gone and have no internet connection/no phone service, let us know by posting or sending a PM to other quitters in the group. Some people in this group take it seriously and post roll every day, others slack off and don’t care! Some people work weird schedules and we understand, but every weekend the attendance for posting roll seems to be getting worse! There is NO REASON your quit brothers have to track you down to make sure you are still quit, when in reality, you were too F***ing lazy to get online and post roll! Either get your ass up in the morning and post roll or get the F*** out of this group! “Quit or Split!” It’s that simple… post roll or 'Finger'
Complacency is the first 6" of the 6 mile fall to a cave.
It only takes missing one day of roll to start the process of you going back to the can.
One day missed + your addict brain = Complacency.
Complacency + your addict brain = danger.
Danger + your addict brain = cave.
Let me explain. Some of you are going to say...that's not me. I won't do that. Yeah? Well are you willing to bet your quit on it?
You wake up one morning, in a rush, late for work or for whatever. You get to work or to the kids practice or to the grocery store or wherever you would go in the morning. You have missed your normal time to post roll. Today is day 50 for you. Been around long enough that you have seen it all happen and you are comfortable in your quit. You could probably leave the site and be just fine.
Afternoon rolls around, you are back home or back from that morning meeting at your desk. You leave for lunch or meet someone in the park or sit at your desk and enjoy some facebook. Posting roll crosses your mind, but you say, i'll do it just before I clock back in, or when I get back from the restaurant. Doesn't happen. You completely forget.
It's now dinner time. You still haven't posted roll. Craziness ensues with the kids and with the family. Maybe you go out with friends if you are single. Couple of drinks over a couple of hours. Either way, it's now late, maybe 30 min before the normal time you go to bed. You are tired, worn out, slightly drunk, maybe a combo of all 3. A crave hits....a dip would feel good right about now. Crap, did I post roll today? No...I never did. I forgot. It's late, i'm just gonna go to bed. I made it all day without posting roll, i'll be fine. So you crash....
5 days go by. You post roll like normal. But then another busy day happens. Same scenario as above happens...except at lunch...your brain tells you...."You know, I'll be fine. I missed roll last week and I was fine, not gonna worry about it. It's Friday, i'll get up and post roll Saturday morning like I usually do." So you don't even think about roll from lunch time on. Saturday and Sunday go by. You don't even think about roll. Your addict brain has convinced you that you'll be fine. I'm not gonna bother texting anyone. They'll probably just get annoyed at me anyway. I'll be fine. Just 3 days of roll.....I'm quit anyway. Maybe you have participated enough on the website and exchanged enough numbers with people that someone realizes you are missing. Maybe you haven't. Maybe you thought that just posting roll was enough for you.
You have now gone from missing just 1 day of roll to a 3 day weekend.....At this point, you and your quit can go in two different directions. Your choice is going to be dependent on a few things. Did someone call, email, or text you? Did someone call you out on the forum in roll? Did you spend long enough on the website to see that they did? Do you even care that you saw it? You know you are quit, who cares what they think? It was just a weekend...I made it just fine. Had a crave but I dealt with it.
Are you going to get your act together, accept the accountability and lifeline that your quit bros and sis's are tossing you? Or are you going to do your own thing? I can promise you that if you decide that you don't need anyone's help quitting, that you can miss a few days of roll, that you won't be quit for as long as you think you would be. You will be back, posting a day 1...OR the more likely scenario, since you are stubborn and prideful, you will be fingering 2 cans a day and not wanting to come back to take your beat down for being a selfish prick.
Look around at the cavers and retreads that we get back here each month. Every group has at least a few of them. Some make the wise choice to get with the program and some make the bad choice of continuing to do things the way they want. Either way, they both ended up coming back because they missed one day. Got lazy. Got complacent. Thought that missing one day was ok. Guess what that led to...
Again I ask you....do you want to risk your quit to missing one day of roll?

A note from my wife:
I am first so very thankful that Mark has quite for his health. That is first and foremost. I canÂ’t imagine the damage that was done prior to his quitting. I am just very proud that he found a group of guys that support each other and keep them liable for there actions. I could not stand finding dip spit bottles all over the place. We are saving a lot of money kicking the can. Mark would buy a drink, poor it out so that he could spit in the bottle. I couldnÂ’t wait until the 100 days of his quite so that he could get his coin (that he carries daily in his pocket) so that I could get it engraved for him. I am so proud of Mark and his accomplishment! I begged for years and years to get him to stop. He wouldnÂ’t. He said he couldnÂ’t! But, he did with the help of KTC-
Man I love her.

Bro, keep your trash out of MY thread. You have a beef with me? Fine. You have to resort to taking out your frustration on my wife? That puts bushleage in a new category.

Thank you for sharing this Wedge. I'm sure anyone with a wife (or husband in gmann's case) can attest that their significant other feels the exact same way.

No but being an asshole is, it must be hard to be perfect I am not sure how you do it. I mean perfect except for caving and failing in your attempt to quit, but other than that perfect.
Sorry to keep this going Wedge but he is ridiculous you don't deserve this.

Wedge,
this is the type of support that we all wish to obtain and/or have at home and could not be better said. You are a lucky man and thanks for sharing. No matter how rude people can be, you have done the right thing.

Who the fuck only has 361 posts logged that joined over 4 years ago? Nice fucking track record ass. By posting roll alone and honoring your word you would have had 1626 posts. Shows some dedication on your part. Looks like the only thing you're dedicated to is not being committed and being an asshole. Climb back down your hole and find your mirror so you have someone to talk to who cares.
Keep on quittin' on Wedge and the rest of y'all

I am with Eric on this one. You have been here since 2008 and call yourself a true member of KTC? 'Crazy' We all know who the REAL quitters are and who are the fucking fakes. Gordy, You sir are the douche bag for starting a riot over a fucking "typo". No further comments......

When I first quit Wedge was there, second PM I got and the first digits. I looked forward to the inspirational text messages daily and they pulled me through the suck. I haven't seen them in awhile. His efforts helped save my life and countless others in the short time he's been here.
Gordy, you and I have been in the same group since June and you never once have you had a positive thing to say to me or anyone on our roll that I can tell. I've watched you post whenever you felt like it and never said a word. I've watched you get jpine to blow up the boards on a drunken friday night inciting anger and negativity and never said a word. I've seen the positive efforts of others get buried in a hole and never said a word. I've watched you explain how you may or may not post all though that strategy failed you and never said a word. Now I see you inciting negativity on a guy's thread who is being supported and loved by his wife and I've had enough.
Gordy, as far as I'm concerned, you are a cancer to all those that refuse to allow shit into their lives any more. As much as I feel bad for you, pity your kind and realize there is probably a very good reason why you are the way you are, there is no room for you here. I vow to do everything in my power to protect this house.
Sorry Wedge but I QUIT WITH YOU.

Seriously guys, you should all be a little more compassionate - Gordy is clearly struggling with issues far beyond the scale of simple nicotine addiction.
We should pass the hat around, take up a little collection, and see if we can get Gordy laid. Might take the edge off.

Thank you. :wub:

A note from my wife:
I am first so very thankful that Mark has quite for his health. That is first and foremost. I canÂ’t imagine the damage that was done prior to his quitting. I am just very proud that he found a group of guys that support each other and keep them liable for there actions. I could not stand finding dip spit bottles all over the place. We are saving a lot of money kicking the can. Mark would buy a drink, poor it out so that he could spit in the bottle. I couldnÂ’t wait until the 100 days of his quite so that he could get his coin (that he carries daily in his pocket) so that I could get it engraved for him. I am so proud of Mark and his accomplishment! I begged for years and years to get him to stop. He wouldnÂ’t. He said he couldnÂ’t! But, he did with the help of KTC-
Man I love her.
That's some awesome stuff wed! You're wife is great support brother, send her a fruit basket or somethin lol. Well done man, keep up the good work

We use cane sugar. Not that corn crap. Cane tastes a little like cyanide or antifreeze when mixed with filtered water, so don't worry about it :)

The post was rock solid and a point in our lives we all strive for. Sorry about hijacking earlier. I don't know the history and don't care to know. It's just when I see a positive trying to be turned into something ugly, I get pretty irate. I don't know either of you from Adam but it's not hard to figure out who has the higher moral fiber.
Again, congrats and continued well wishes to your wife.

At the risk of getting pissed off again, I want to share this with you. The next time you are having a bad day with cravings and dealing with life without nicotine....always know that someone has it worse than you do. I don't post this for pity or poor, poor me comments. I post this because I want to show that people struggle with things far worse than our withdrawl from nicotine. Compared to what my wife goes through, our journey to stay quit is a breeze.
Written by my wife Amanda....You may not agree with the ideology or the religion, but I ask that you keep your comments to the contrary out of my intro thread. Thanks.....
It is by the grace of God that I have made it through the last 2 years. You see I am not a victim, but a survivor of life with illness. I have scars that I glance at and turn my head. It is a flaw and it will not go away. It reminds me of what I have survived this far on my journey. I didnÂ’t know that 2 years ago IÂ’d eat my “last meal” or I wouldÂ’ve made a better choice than WendyÂ’s.Â
IÂ’ve been to 7 different hospitals and seen many different doctors and many different specialties. I have been poked, stuck, and cut open. Try this medication and let us try this physical therapy, and now letÂ’s try this surgery. I have been told so many times in the last 2 years that I am beyond the realm of there expertise. I am now at the Cleveland Clinic where they think they can help me. I have Gastroparesis, also called delayed gastric emptying, is a medical condition consisting of a paresis (paralysis) of the stomach, resulting in food remaining in the stomach for a longer period of time than normal. I also have Colonic inertia is actually a medical term for the condition in which either nerves or muscles in the colon do not function properly.Â
On August 6th I had a surgery to get a gastric neuro-stimulator, or stomach pacemaker, helps control nausea and vomiting by electrically stimulating nerves in the stomach. For some patients, the relief is instant while others take up to a year to notice any difference and some may never get relief.Â
People with GP do not have that hope that tomorrow will be better right now. Each day varies and some are better than others, but inevitably the bad days will always come back. There are limited options to treat symptoms, but they don’t work well. Patients are basically told to “live with it.” In some cases, it can’t be lived with. While most people with GP get by on what is available, because there are no other options, quality of life is certainly gloomy. Many survive on less than 1,000 calories a day, severe weight loss, disability, tube feedings, IV nutrition, medication with nasty side effects, and a life full of invasive medical treatments and hospitalizations. GP is not just simple illnesses, which can be cured through diet changes, medication, or surgery. They do not mildly impact life. They have a profound influence on every daily activities, regardless of severity. There is no escape. Is this the kind of life a person wants to “just live with?” I’ve been diagnosed with other things along the way but, these are the majors! These conditions are so poorly understood. They are so hidden that people often don’t believe they are real or are not as serious as they actually are. Although difficult to understand, patients suffering from GP may look completely healthy. They may drive, work, shop, go to church, take care of a family, and look great on the outside. Their color may be nice, they may look strong and energetic, and they may appear to be feeling well. Yet, the turmoil churning within them is by no means normal. On top of the physical issues, because the conditions are so poorly understood, people with GP often have to live with the challenges of stereotyping by society. It is often believed that patients are exaggerating their conditions because they don’t “look sick.” Others believe those who suffer really just have an eating disorder and use a “mild” condition as an excuse for not eating well. People simply don’t understand that a couple sips of soup can send one’s gut into a frenzy and result in hours of nausea, abdominal pain, and vomiting. Sometimes this lasts even for days. Think back again to the day you had the flu. You probably did not want to lift your head off the bed or couch. You felt too weak to make it to the bathroom. Every time you sat up, you felt your head spin and the nausea increased even more. Finally, it was a battle of determination to force yourself up and walk to distance to the bathroom. While you were up, you tried to grab as many items as you needed so you didn’t have to get back up again for a long time. By the time you get back to bed, you were so weak and wiped out that all you wanted to do is sleep or watch TV. But you couldn’t get your mind off the nausea. It was so overwhelming that you curled up into a ball on your side and just waited for it to pass. You took flu medication in hopes of sleeping it off and had hope that tomorrow would be better.
OK OK OK you know where I am going! The Lord is MY STRENGTH and now youÂ’ve taken a journey of the last 2 years!
What I am saying after giving you a summary is that God is good and has been with me on the journey every single step of the way. What an amazing God!
My husband is amazing too! He is there in puke, surgery, test and doctor appointments. The strength that he has sustained is truly a gift of God. Love over whelms me! My backbone is the people around me that love me and pray with me. Watch therefore and pray always. Pray without ceasing. The prayers give me strength, hope, love, courage, fight and will!Â
God has brought us relationships. Healed relationships, and strengthened relationships on the journey. And, my friend that makes it all worth the while!
God’s grace is sufficient! Amazing Grace!

Cleveland Clinic is the place to be. Good luck to you guys in getting this treated.

Today is day 210. It was a rough weekend, major cravings. Not close to even thinking about buying a can though. I signed my name to roll. Mint toothpick and a glass of water and then back to my regularly scheduled programming.
I hope that those of you who haven't figured out the secret yet do so quickly. Putting your quit first and foremost in your head at the beginning of each day is the trick. Remembering that you are an addict and that your addict brain will trick you into slipping up only PREVENTS you from failing.
1. Post roll
2. Have help on standby
3. Win
-
Life is nothing but a string of victories and defeats. Sometimes we get full control and sometimes none at all to define if we will win or lose certain situations.
I have control of my quit and I choose to win today. Tomorrow looks like I'm gonna win again.

Unlike the bills, who are more accustomed to losing

3rd floor is on the horizon. Milestones are great but in the end it's another day to be quit.Take each day as a victory and a milestone in and of itself. Celebrate the small and fragile things around you that make your life what it is. You never know when they will be taken from you.
Never be afraid to reach out for help. It doesn't mean you are weak....it means you are wise. Ignoring those around you willing to assist and falling short makes you weak.

I do not miss:
- heading to the cstore every other day to buy 2 cans of chew (almost $14)
- worrying about having enough dip to make it through the day/night, etc
- finding something to spit in
- opening a spitter only to hear that hiss letting you know it's been sitting in your car for months and to get ready for the smell of death.
I do not miss a single thing about chewing. Sure, I still occasionally get a crave, but I'm not going to stick that crap in my face again. I love not being a slave.

gotta agree there 30, our minds had us so fooled and now that we are without the poison we can think so much clearer.
And yes that had to be the most foul smelling thing Kubrick but yet we proceeded to add more spit and crap into it..... 'puking'

First off, congrats on your quit! Old spitters and the smell of death is definitely something I look back on and think "WTF was was I doing?!". It's posts like this that strengthen my quit!
Anyone else use to do this, take the old nasty spitter and wipe the mouth down with hand sanitizer and napkin? Holy shit, I was a disgusting pig!

Yeah there's nothing that smells worse than a can filled with spit that has been sitting in the car in the hot sun for even a few hours never mind days.
More than once, my sister-in-law mistakenly drank a used can thinking it was coke and threw-up.....nasty but sadistically redeeming because she deserved it at the time.
In Boston in the city on the subway was the ultimate best time for a dip and when I didn't have a cup, I would sometimes go through the public trash and find one to use!
My worst fear though was the possibility of forgetting a used can somewhere where my daughter could find it and potentially drink it.
You're both absolutely right......it was a hell of a nasty habit when you start thinking about it!

'crackup' This made me laugh....and yet we would still put up with it..... 'Crazy'

I'm just another testament that there is no end date to your quit....Today is day 456 and still the dip dreams and cravings continue.
But with the bedrock that is KTC that I have driven in my support, they don't sway me far. Be vigilant.

Eric,
It's quitters like you that have stuck around that I helped so long ago that keep me around.
Proud of all of you, those who quit before me, those in my quit group, and all those I've pulled the can out of your hands.
Just keep paying it forward ladies and gents.

Thank you all for the well wishes.
Each day, as I've said before, is it's own milestone. Some are slightly bigger than others and gives us something to look forward to. But what yesterday was, was 730 times in a row that I won. Each one of those days was a check in the win column. I didn't allow my farked up brain to beat me, nor did I let anyone trick me into going back to the can.
For all of you who think that two years sounds unattainable, like it's going to take forever.....don't look at it that way. Look at it is as another day in your life that you will win. One day at a time. Sometimes the bigger picture drowns out the white noise around you that beats you.
Each day you win is a milestone. You are beating an addiction. Think about that. Yesterday, if you stayed clean, you BEAT AN ADDICTION. Doesn't matter what it is. Nic, drugs, liquor, porn.....you won. No matter that good, bad, and ugly you have happening in your life, at the end of the day, when your head hits the pillow, there will always be one positive thing in your life. You beat your addiction for the day.
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is something to celebrate. I'm gonna win with all of you today.

I remember this dude. He sparked up June 14 for no other reason than to spark it up. He made me aware, "I never want to cave and face the 3 questions!" So I didn't cave. Why don't you like the site anymore? Once, such an influential member of this place......gone by the wayside.

Wedge was texting me Waaay back when, after I left the site because I was a scared pussy. He encouraged me to come back and thankfully I did. I'll never forget him for that. I owe much of my quit to him. Maybe even my life.
However...in my "younger days" if a dude came rolling through like this, I would have shredded him a new asshole.

I'm glad to help individual people out. I always will, regardless of whatever site I find them on.
However, after so many quit groups of people ignoring you trying to save their life, it starts to be a grind. You guys haven't been around long enough and I don't have the personality to let stuff roll off my back like those who have been around long before I joined up. Add in I don't agree with the way the site is run and I just need an extended break.

I've got to jump in and say; every quit is different and quite often we try to fit each quit into the same mold and they just don't fit. I've been hear with wedge before he was wedge. As brothers of quit we've seen a lot. Many of you have no idea what personal challenges he faces taking care of and watching a love one suffer. I've taken needed breaks from KTC and understand how quitting requires us to do what works for us. Wedge is definitely one of the quitters that has been a continuous support for me even when absent. I was criticized once for putting down a administrator that has been absent for years. I was told (by an administrator) he did more good while posting roll than I ever would. Well in my opinion Wedge has been a huge asset to KTC and so many quitters over the past nearly 1,000 days.

I think wedge should post roll if he's gonna start posting again in here. I feel for him and his personal troubles. I've heard what he is going through. If he's going to be here reading and posting, he should also be posting roll. Wedge, will you post roll with us? You know it's the price of admission right?

Thanks for the status update...now if I could only find the "like button" Sarcasm
Okay. It'd be nice to have you posting again. Glad you're quit. Bummer you don't care for the site and you're not going to post. Stop bac
k in sometime and let us know how you're doing. Maybe you'll come back if you need the help.
Keep up the quit, Wedgie.
I remember this dude. He sparked up June 14 for no other reason than to spark it up. He made me aware, "I never want to cave and face the 3 questions!" So I didn't cave. Why don't you like the site anymore? Once, such an influential member of this place......gone by the wayside.
Wedge was texting me Waaay back when, after I left the site because I was a scared pussy. He encouraged me to come back and thankfully I did. I'll never forget him for that. I owe much of my quit to him. Maybe even my life.
However...in my "younger days" if a dude came rolling through like this, I would have shredded him a new asshole.
I'm glad to help individual people out. I always will, regardless of whatever site I find them on.
However, after so many quit groups of people ignoring you trying to save their life, it starts to be a grind. You guys haven't been around long enough and I don't have the personality to let stuff roll off my back like those who have been around long before I joined up. Add in I don't agree with the way the site is run and I just need an extended break.
I've got to jump in and say; every quit is different and quite often we try to fit each quit into the same mold and they just don't fit. I've been hear with wedge before he was wedge. As brothers of quit we've seen a lot. Many of you have no idea what personal challenges he faces taking care of and watching a love one suffer. I've taken needed breaks from KTC and understand how quitting requires us to do what works for us. Wedge is definitely one of the quitters that has been a continuous support for me even when absent. I was criticized once for putting down a administrator that has been absent for years. I was told (by an administrator) he did more good while posting roll than I ever would. Well in my opinion Wedge has been a huge asset to KTC and so many quitters over the past nearly 1,000 days.
I think wedge should post roll if he's gonna start posting again in here. I feel for him and his personal troubles. I've heard what he is going through. If he's going to be here reading and posting, he should also be posting roll. Wedge, will you post roll with us? You know it's the price of admission right?
Wedge did post roll with our group before posting here yesterday.

Keep on rolling guys.
Why don't you come back and start posting again?
TBH, i'm not a fan of the site and i've lost any and all interest in posting every day.
Plain and simple.

Don't rewrite history.
I ventured off the beaten path for a while, but my quit was never in danger. You don't necessarily earn the right to do so when you reach a certain number. I should have had my butt here everyday. Life issues creep up and I forgot about my quit for a while. Those times are the most dangerous for any quitter, especially when you don't have the concrete foundation I've built here. I wrote this a LONG time ago, but I want to bring it up as it pertains to my own stupidity for leaving. It's never too soon to start pouring your own cement. I URGE all of you to start today:
Life sucks sometimes. Some days its justa bad day at the office. Some times its a flat tire on the way to soccer practice. And somedays, the absolute worst falls out of the sky. It could be a death in the family, a blowout with your spouse, or you lose your only income for the family. At this point, catastrophy has struck....
Nothing that you can put in your body is going to help you during these times. No weed, no liquor, no nicotine. Sure, it might alleviate some of the stress for a short time, but what do you have left once the drug-induced high is over? In this case, you are back in the grip of your addiction, 2 hours later in life and full of guilt. And nothing else has changed.
Nicotine is never the answer. Sure, it calls to you like a siren in the wind with promises of unicorns and rainbows. But as you read this now, clear and level headed, you know these are empty promises. We all have weak moments in life. Hell, we all have pure weaknesses of one kind or another that never get patched throughout our lifetime. But with this site, you have the opportunity to lock down your resolve, concrete your lip shut from the grip of nic. Use the tools NOW, solidify your quit and your quit plans, so that when the time comes, like it did for swamp....you are ready.
Mark my words, that time will come. What are you going to do when it happens? Are you going to give in to the pretty song of a 10 minute high followed by a life of finger banging cans again? Or are you going to call me, or somebody else in your phone, and let us shield you from the call of the temptress? This site is the factory for your quit...the parts bins are scattered around along with thousands of instruction manuals that all give you successful protection in the end. Just make sure you build yours before its too late.
Your posting record was shoddy at best back then, and you walked away after writing this. It's sad too because you offered some really good wisdom on occasion. I'm glad you're still quit not using actively quit?, and you're always welcome here.
Prayers to you and your loved ones man. Merry Christmas. Let's quit together again.
