I had my first dip when I was 15 years old. It was offered to me at a party, where numerous people were trying it. I had virtually no knowledge of chewing tobacco at this point in time. Sure I thought it was bad... but just how bad could it be? I would continue to try it every now and then. Started to enjoy the buzzed feeling. Sometimes I would have a friend buy me a can, but I'd never finish the whole thing. Wasn't until I was about 19-20 years old I started to chew heavily. I could get it myself so it was readily accessible. If I ran out, my college roommate could always spare a pinch. We would always be trying different kinds and asking the other to try something new.
Fast forward another year in college. Have a girlfriend. Decided to quit 'for her' and that lasted about 6 months. We broke up so I decided there was no reason stopping me now. After the absence of chew, starting again made me feel good. I ended up going through twice the amount of chew I used to. As time progressed, so did my consumption. I would go through 3-4 cans during the week and just as many over the weekend. Going through that whole party phase in college led to more chew and more dips.
Going through a can a day was normal. During class, at work, driving... seemed I always had a dip in.
At 23 years old, I developed a tooth problem. Putting in a dip made the tooth hurt incredibly bad. Made an appointment to see the dentist, and had the tooth pulled. It was a chipped tooth that developed a cavity down to the nerve. During that recovery period (about a week) I quit chewing again. But as soon as I thought it was healed, I was back at it again.
Fast forward again. 26 years old with a great job. Been hiding the habit for quite some time. Only people that know about it are my close friends. I would feel ashamed if people found out. Wait until there is no one in the gas station because I didn't want people to see me. You know, that kind of stuff.
Morning routines had turned into waking up and first thing grabbing that can. Go downstairs, take a dump, then shower. Make coffee, eat, another dip. Seemed the only time I didn't have chew in my mouth was to eat or sleep.
Yesterday morning as I was taking a shower getting ready for work, I spit my chew out in the tub. Yes I know, while I was showering. Dumb. As I watched it wash down the drain, I told myself that was the last one. I'm tired of hiding it, tired of wasting my money.
Yesterday I found you guys while googling symptoms of withdrawals... I was getting a little concerned.
Today you guys popped up again. You seem like a great bunch. I'm looking forward to quitting this nasty bad habit, and hope I can help some others in the process.
As a side note, I hope I did Roll Call correctly today.

Close enough JimThins, it will get fixed. Chug the water, get some numbers from November dudes, and get you quit on! Gonna be a rough couple of days here, but do this while you are young, don't be a 44 y/o fool like me before you realize you are killing yourself.

Jim,
Welcome to KTC, we are all glad you found us as we genuinely care about helping you end your game of Russian Roulette with nicotine and tobacco. As for possibly fucking up Roll, it happens even the veterans do that from time to time. I have strung together a couple of pointers and links that I feel you should invest a bit of time into to read and head:
1. Your spouse/girlfriend, her support is critical and she deserves to understand more what you are going through, so see the following link and hell print it or e-mail it to her to read Spousal Support (http://www.killthecan.org/community/spousal-support/)
2. Read this for yourself to make sure you fully know what to expect What to expect when you quit (http://www.killthecan.org/your-quit/what-to-expect-when-you-quit-dipping/); some days are better then others, then eventually all days are better
3. Read the stories on here at KTC, the Kern story is a tear jerker and though you want to be around for your kids this will reinforce it dramatically, Kern's Story (http://forum.killthecan.org/topic/1008859/1/); then there are these words spoken by a man who lost his brother to this stupid shit Sean Marsee (http://forum.killthecan.org/topic/1009362/1/#new), damn I wish he would have talked at my middle school.
4. Find an alternative and keep it on you at all times. There will be times when going to the Convenience Store and getting a soda or anything else can cause one lapse in judgment and lead to a huge mistake. Don't be that guy, be the guy with Testicular Fortitude.
5. Find a couple of other quitters and exchange numbers with them, if you need another please PM me and let's do this.
6. Remember that you are an addict, 100 days is a milestone not a goal; the goal is a lifetime being free from the nic bitch. Get pissed off at big tobacco and the dangers they put you in.
7. Remember that you are the one who caused you to be an addict, so don't let anger get outside of your control. It is no one else's fault that you got here. Your family will only support you if you are not an asshole.

Jim, great decision to quit! First thing you need to wrap your mind around however, is that dipping is not a habit. Dipping is a delivery method for our nicotine addiction! Tough to face, but quitting is all about admitting one is an addict.
KTC can help you quit. Read everything here. All the knowledge you need is right here, but only you have the power to be quit. Learn the KTC plan and then live it. The plan works!
You need to own your quit and work it, but you can quit! Start with the welcome center and keep reading from there. Intros, HOF speeches, words of wisdom, cancer stories; everything will help you quit, but you must own it.
PM me if you need anything. You can do this...

Nice Intro Jimthins. Your story sounds like a lot of us. And you've definitely come to the right place. Thousands and thousands of quitters here who have done it one way. One day at a time. You posted roll (I think) which puts you ahead of the game. Fight through the day (It will definitely suck) then go to bed and post roll again tomorow morning. If I can give you some words of advice...First get in the habit of posting roll first thing in the morning. And never fall out of that habit. If you have a smart phone you can post roll from anywhere. The bedrock of the site is your daily promise (roll call) treat that roll call as serious as you can. Second use the chat rooms, introduction page, or numbers you get from fellow quitters to get you through the tough times, you have an army of people here waiting to help you but no one can help if they don't know if something is wrong. You hid as a dipper don't hide as a quitter. Finally, man up and get this done!

Thanks for the advice! Chuggin water comes easily given my mouth feels very chalky/pasty. I'm not sure how to explain it, but it's weird. I'm planning on more running and bike riding as well.

Thank you for this!

Welcome jimthins! You have come to the right place. You are just like me and most of the others on this site. You are an addict. You've been given great advice so far, but it does get easier over time. Quit one day at a time and you'll find out.

BadAss quitting advice already given above...read and re-read...trade digits with those in your group.
You can do this ODAAT.

Congrats JimThins! I went through a 4-day funk after I tossed my last can. I didn't really get grouchy or anything, but my head was fuzzy, the world moved in slow-motion, I was tired, and had this intense sadness come over me (I think those four days are about as close as I'll ever come to experiencing PMS!) I carried on with my days as much as I possibly could and you should too: STAY BUSY! At night I would literally lay on the couch and eat bon-bons and cry while watching WWII documentaries until I got bored enough and fell asleep (okay, just joking about the WWII documentaries.) It was awful, just completely awful. Buy having been through it (two years ago) I can tell you this:
1) one morning, maybe around day four or five, you'll wake up and the world will be brighter. You'll realize that your head is clear, you're not drowsy or sad, and the PMS symptoms have worn off. You haven't won yet, but those scary initial "withdraws" you always hear people talk about are pretty much over.
2) be thankful for the misery you're experiencing, embrace it, and remember just how miserable you are right now. If you at some point cave and get yourself re-hooked to the dip then at some point down the road you'll have to go through this all over again. Would you really want to put yourself through this funk/PMS again?
Good luck to you!

Tell the world you're quitting for good.
Let those that you love and those that love you know that you want to quit for them, but mostly you want to quit for yourself. Point them to the site. Let them see what you are doing to change your life. By doing this you will be help accountable by them.
Post roll, get contact info from some in your quit group. Stay committed to your quit, and don't be a lying cave. Proud to be quitting with you my friend.

Nice job posting roll.

Right on, man. Thanks for the support! I'd say you're pretty accurate haha. Funk is about the best way to describe it. I've had trouble concentrating, but I have noticed some improvement this morning. A general drowsy feeling. Tingling sensations, mainly in the back of my head. Most noticeable for me though would probably be my teeth. They feel sore, and almost tingle as well. My mouth feels very chalky... I'm not sure how to describe it. But I'm just chugging water all day and chugging along. It will get better!
I'm doing my best to stay busy. I played 18 holes of golf yesterday evening, with no dip! Even stopped at the normal gas station on the way and chose a liter of water and Reese's Fast Break over Grizzly. Suck it, Nic!

Nice job posting roll.
Thanks man! First thing I did before I even got out of bed haha.
ODAAT!

You are winning! Keep drinking the kool-aide!

Consumption of fresh veggies helps as well. I found that fruit in the AM and then veggies throughout the day helped change the feeling in my mouth. I am convinced it was all mental but it did in fact help me. There is no miracle cure that I know of yet, but time is the ultimate healer. I continue to get better every day and you will too. Just be careful because some days are not as good as the previous day.
Use the KTC tools, read through other people's intros and get to know your fellow quitters, the accountability is one of the best tools here.

Keep it going J -
start to make the bonds with your group. Exchange numbers, send PMs, respond to their intros. As you go through this get to know them and let them get to know you. I may sound a little weird, but make friends now from these strangers that have come together, as one day there may be a savior among you that keeps each other quit. But be around and available as you may be at one end or the other of that message.

First off, thanks for all the support and kind words from everyone! After the fog had lifted, it was crystal clear that this was the right place for me. I reached 10 days this morning, and wanted to share. I have thoroughly enjoyed my experience thus far and look forward to reaching new milestones with you crazy fucks.
With that being said, here are some of my recent achievements that I am very proud of:
I have played numerous rounds of golf without a single dip. Twice during golf I played with a few people who had chew. Honestly, it smelled disgusting to me.
I have stuffed my face to the gills, eating way more than I should. While laying there feeling miserable, I never caved knowing full well that was prime time for a dip.
I have drove for extended periods of time (2+hrs), driving past numerous gas stations without a blink. Fuck that nic bitch and fuck her hard.
I have spread the word to some of my friends who chew about KTC. I continue to persuade them. I hope one day to see their names on roll. Fuckin dumbasses (that's easy for me to say now)
I visit the gas station where I would routinely buy my chew, and have replaced nicotine with water and a candy bar. I stare at that wall of nic and just smile at the bitch with a big middle finger.
I know full-well this is just the beginning. Hunting season is coming up. Being in that duck blind will be just another test for me to kick the nic. I will succeed and I will not cave. Hunting season will make my quit stronger.
And to Thanksgiving dinner where I am notorious for eating wayyyy too much.... bring it!
Thanks for all the support KTC Community and to the SCQs of November. I know I can count on you for anything.
If anyone needs someone to talk with when the quit gets tough, please PM me. I'll gladly help. And hell, we can talk about anything you want.
Quit on brothers!
-
Nice job beating the triggers! I got to the point where I realized breathing was a trigger... The more you live without the poison the more normal it feels. Keep kicking the Nic bitch in the throat, and one day that will be your new normal. QLF brother. You are winning.
-
Great work on your quit Jim. You're one day ahead of me, but I hope I never catch up. Proud to be quit with you today brother. Hang in there.
-
Day 65 and going strong. One of those days when you wake up and feel invincible to the nic bitch and her antics. Truth be told, it is not always easy. I noticed on November HOF a member decided KTC wasn't for him anymore. I wish him the best of luck but at the same time I pity him. For the doubters out there who think after X amount of days you are free and have your quit in the bag... wake up. You read it everywhere on this site. People talk about it all the time. The nic bitch finds her way into your life no matter how many days of quit are behind you. She has snuck up on me numerous times but my quit and my quit brothers here at KTC help me power through. I am in this fight for the rest of my life.
I realize I haven't checked in on my intro for quite some time. It is interesting to read through some of my posts and see the progress being made in such a short amount of time. I am thankful for the support here at KTC. I am thankful my brothers are here each and every day to help one another fight off the nic bitch.
It is definitely the little victories in your quit that fuel you - Saturday was my first birthday in 11 years without a dip. Feels good to say that.
Thanks for all the support, brothers. Damn proud to be quit with you every damn day.

Quit with you!

There is a ton of information on this site for everyone. Take it all in. Everyone has a story to share and will likely relate to you, and fuel your quit. Thanks fro stopping by King. Stay strong and stay quit my friend. It's the best thing you can do.

Humility and understanding that it takes a village to help others see their addiction for what it is coupled with the realization that though you caused your addiction, you have many people and tools that are proved over a long period of time...plus let's be honest you "got it" quick and did way more than the minimum. Even making the forum a fun place to be.
Good job and congrats on one year, I look forward to seeing many more milestones form you
