I am not here to say that i have quit but i do know that i have tried hundreds of times in the past and no form of "cessation" seems to work. Here is how it usually goes...I put down the can for a week or two. It actually is fine and then i get hit right in the face with something...my lower gums start to physically ache but since i don't want to dip i fire up a smokey treat. I just want to be done with it and i know i need help. I told my wife that i quit in January and i technically started back up in mid to late march. I don't want to tell her that i failed but i do need help i'm sure of it. I also know the way i want to do this (cold turkey) will be a bitch but i think its the only way it will work. need some help

jayd - click on the welcome center link to the upper left (pink). Read all that, post roll and then go to killthecan.org and read everything there. There are a ton of resources, many dealing with issues surrounding cold turkey.
"smokey treat" made me a bit queasy. I suggest not using terms like that on this forum. You will be reemed.
Cold turkey is hard, but you'll have to go cold turkey eventually. Any time you reintroduce nicotine into your system you are reinforcing those receptors in your brain. After three days, the nicotine will be out of your system and it's a mental battle from there on out. Getting involved with your quit group and creating accountability will give you a great tool when your lip starts to ache (I know exactly what you're talking about).
And come clean with your wife. A large part of chewing for me was secrecy and deceit. Build your quit on a foundation of honesty.
Quit for today. Tomorrow will bring challenges. Two weeks will bring challenges. But you can remain quit for today. You can definitely remain quit through your next physical/mental urge.
Post roll. Now. Welcome Center. Go.

Thank you Smokeyg. I will be sure to remember not to use those types of terms here. I see your point! Anyhow, i think this site will be useful for me but i am still trying to figure out how to navigate around it. Any suggestions? I am leaving work for the day but will be back tomorrow morning.

jayd... I went cold turkey 21 days ago. I don't even remember much of the first week or 2 other than I took as gospel all the old timers advice... One day at a time. To look ahead is too much. Far too much. Just worry about right now, figure the site out, learn all about your quit group and posting roll, read, learn, connect with people. You are NOT alone brother! We all know exactly what you're going through. Certain specifics will vary but... We know. We can help. We will help. USE US!! PM me when you're comfortable and I'll give you my number. Rock it, man!!

Question,, what the hell is a smo----------. Never mind!
Look man,, all that was in the past. Lets start with today. I say you get on up to the welcome center. learn how to Post roll and get this quit started. The longer you wait the more damage you do my friend. If you quit with ktc your chances of really quitting are a lot better.
You say that you go a couple weeks and then your gums hurt. I got a question? What do you expect? It would be nice if putting the most addictive drug known to man down and that was it. Nothing happens!!
Now lets talk about reality. When you really quit you are going to go through all kinds of hell. Your bottom gum hurting ain't got shit on the mind games.
You go through a lot to quit,, but the reward is so worth it. It is so much easier to quit than your brain will let you believe. Right now you are controlled by the nicotine. You think that life without nicotine will be horrible. Well it's a big lie,, life is so good without it. Don't let it lie to you anymore,, take your life back man.
Grow some balls, Dump that shit in the toilet,, wash all the remains down the sink. Go to top left, welcome center. Read how to post roll. There is a lot of bad ass quitters in august that will be glad to have you.

Man I am an August quiter. On day 7. Just did come out of the fog "the suck". It was hell for me. Ready for the next set of challenges to hit me, I know their coming. Anyway go post roll get off your ass and be part of our quit group. This is the place to quit. The guys are tough but a huge help. There are badass quiters in every stage of the quit so guys like you and I always know what challenges we are facing next. this is it man.
-
Wow, so far this has been awesome! (and no not quitting) But the support from those that have been there that can relate is such a huge help. I threw away an empty can, went in to a gas station (and honestly, that might be the worst place to go) and moved on...i'm so ready to be done with this shit. THank you all so far that have provided encouragement. And i will definiltly remember not to use too many terms that are hard to view...

Get yo' silly ass into August 2013 and post roll. Don't worry about getting it right the first time. Give your word, tell them it's day one, ask to be added to roll and you're golden.
The intro section offers limited support from a random band of quitters. August 2013 will be your home. Keep it clean. Commit for today. Let tomorrow bring what it will.

We can be tough but that is because we are all addicts and have suffered the SUCK of quitting and have all been that lame ass slave to nicotine and can't be fooled by addict talk! Drink deep of the koolaid, Jim jones had koolaid that stopped life but KTC has quit koolaid, and it is as effective as jones'.

Ok so my last one was yesterday...i'm ready to do this...what is the next step as far as getting in a group? I can't seem to get past the welcome page that tells me what everything is....i know what everything is now...i'm ready to start. By the way, frustrations on not being able to navigate this site (i'm sure its simple) is NOT helping!!! Neither was the tiny document that i couldn't find for an hour here at work...

jayd,
everyone told me to post in Roll call. Once your quit, posting in Roll Call.
August Link is here:

I go click on the link....go to post, and it tells me i am not allowed to post there....seriously...am I not a "registered" user? Do you have to pay money to be "registered"? This does not help the nic fit that i am going through at the moment.

jayd,
The Roll Call thing is a bit confusing to me as well, Cut/Paste and add your "days?"
I get the point, but the point is to stay clean 1st, being accountable to you, Roll Call is being accountable to the "group" as a whole.
index.php?showtopic=50 (http://forum.killthecan.org/index.php?showtopic=50)
Nic has control, not us, and i need to get it out of my system physically 100 % before i can get it out of my system mentally.
"Allergy of the Body, and Obsession of the mind"..
I want to get past the "sucks" as they call it here, the body crying out for the fix. I am praying my ass off and breathing through i.t. Today is better (for now than yesterday)

Thanks to erussell for talking me through that...Wow....let the insanity begin!

Jay glad to help. From here try your best to relax be calm and enjoy the pain you are going throu. As crazy as that sounds it is good advice given to me by some of the badass quiters on here. It is possible. I did it. Above all remember we are quit for today, we only focus on today. Keep your promise to yourself and all of us.

Thanks bud...here's to hoping that phone call i made saved my life...
-
Like i told Jeremy earlier about hope. First quit. To hell with hope. We "HOPE" we escape cancer. We "DECIDE" if we use nicotine today. You decide right now that the phone call saved your life, hold good to the promise you just made by posting roll like a badass, nut up and do it. Minute by minute hour by hour day by day..... until. Quit the i hope, i am going to try, and start the i commit, i can, i will until you say i did! We can do this man however painful, it is just a decision, simple as that! I am glad to quit with you man!

How bad do you want to quit jay?

How bad do you want to quit jay?
Like more than i can explain. I'm out of excuses to keep doing it. After a couple of bad marriages i'm finally content, i have wonderful children that i want to be able to impart some of my life lessons to. So yeah , pretty bad

Ditto. I decided 967 days ago that the most important life lesson that I could impart was "nicotine is unacceptable". Up to that point, I had failed as a father. My 2 youngest kids probably don't remember my disgusting failures with tobacco, and I hope that my 10-year-old only remembers the fact that I quit, and it was hard. Nothing else really matters.
I gotta say this thread is a beautiful thing and a perfect example of why I love KTC. Nebraska, Russell, and Trauma are struggling with their own quits, yet here they are helping a brother out. Jay, you absolutely cannot find this kind of support ANYWHERE else. That is a fact. Make this quit stick.
-
I think the biggest lie that i tell people or tell myself is that "I'll try to quit". The minute i say i'll try i'm sunk...I appreciate all the support from complete strangers...i offer my support to you all as well! Nice to know i am not alone in this!

Alone, we are doomed. But, as a group.... we can accomplish damn near anything. One day at a time.
-
Listen Jay you are now entering the hardest part. Sure we will all have tough moments that suck for time to come, but hang in there we are here struggling with you. One reason we all want to help is it reminds us how painful the suck was so we are reminded why it is we can't let our guard down for even a moment as we never want to experience that again, ever. A reminder also that we are not alone and that by joining this site we have surrounded ourselves with people we want to be like, !!!badass quitters!!!! I can hear the sound in your post your in pain, dude minute by minute brother don't give up, you stay the coarse damn it, you promised. We are quitting with you right now!

I'm with you radman... There is some serious badass quiters in August. I'm pleased to sea these guys backing each other up like they are.

Could this day take any longer!!! I quit with you all this hour and the next...i think i'll have to break my quits down by the hour....i think i'll drive myself crazy waiting for the day to end! Thanks!!
-
Remember every moment of this. I actually took notes during my suck. Remember it. Embrace it. Relax and breach and yes hour by hour helps. Wtf ever it takes just don't cave! You got this man. If I did you can doit. There is sunlight on the way just stay in the tunnel. I quit with you this very second.

As much as i do like my job and look forward to maybe owning my own lot one day soon...the down time that a car salesman addicted to nicotine adds an extra little obstacle! Boredom is and will always be my biggest trigger, along with about 100 others...luckily i have this board to keep my company! It also wouldn't hurt if someone would come buy a fuckin car off of me!
I quit with you all for the next hour...

Dipping at work was my one time a day when I could dip without restraints. So learning how to work without dipping is the first challenge you have to get over. Chew gum, seeds, anything other than dip. After a couple days of not using it gets easier.
Remember, just quit one day at a time, or like I had to do one hour at time for the first couple days.

Just realize that dip helped you in no way, shape or form at work. It made you think it was helping you. You didn't need it at work, never did. I know it's really hard to turn stuff right now early in your quit. I just want you to start seeing the other side of it. The sooner you start seeing it for what it is the sooner the healing begins.
Nicotine addiction makes you think, you can't work, play, or love without it. Let me tell you that you most certainly can. Eventually you need to start building up hate for this awful addiction. Think about how it's making you feel right now. Your wondering how your going to make it through a day a at work,, well you will. It's that simple. Millions of people do it everyday,, why can't you? There is a great line I heard from a bad ass quitter. Astronauts have landed on the moon without it,, I think you can make it a day at the car lot without it. Astronauts quote by none other than diesel,, I think him for his quotes.
Quit on jay. Your rocking this quit and i'm glad to be quit with you.

Coming from someone who works in construction, I understand where you are coming from on dipping being a way of life at work. I have successfully made it two days without a pinch(I know thats not impressive but damn I'm proud of myself lol). I have found that chewing a whole shit load of sunflower seeds has really helped keep the cravings in check. Between keeping my mouth busy and just sheer determination to be done with this addiction it feels like I can make it through this, and if I can make it so can you!

Jay you got this. Post roll in the am no matter how bad it gets we posted roll, we keep our damn promise, and its that fucking simple. We are August!
And yes Jeremy two days is extremely impressive!

The fog or the suck that is mentioned on here (and i have endured it before) is slowly starting to kick in. I ran a bit this morning which i think helped but holy hell am i out of shape! My on again off again relationship with smoking has left me a little winded! But...feeling energized to keep this quit going! Thanks for all the support!

The suck or fog will not disappear over night but it will clear up -
Drink as much water as you can and then some more
Stay on that running program - recommend Couch to 5K to keep you engaged with a goal
One day at a time is the only way to attack this quit. We poisoned our bodies for years (3.5 decades in my case) so don't expect to wake up tomorrow and everything be peachy. If you ran today for the 1st time in awhile - your body is going to revolt!!
Stretch it out and stay the course!1

So far so good today...hope all of my quitting buddies are doing well today. Although it's only been a day and half i am starting to feel a little better, trust me I know its going to get goofy sometimes. But reading all the stories and advice sure does help. It's very hard to have my morning coffee, but i made the decision to have it anyways, that gives me power over chew, and i actually had some beverage last night and didn't use the gum (which is what i used around my wife). Keep on fighting the good fight! There is a saying around here, Boiler Up and Hammer Down!

I to have been victimized. It is our fault that we didn't think before we hit the enter key. I tried to cover my mistake, but like you, it was to late. All you can do is hope that it gets lost. The more posts you create The further into computer eternity it goes. Mine, has, i think been forgotten, but I'm always in fear it will return. I quith you today.

Let me know how that one works out for you. I tried that not too long ago. Didnt work so well for me. Found myself with bigger head ache on sat morning. LOL i Dont drink often anyway so maybe it wasnt enough to lose weight cause that didnt change either.

I'm thinking brats on the grill tonight...possibly a beverage....i know, random thoughts...but thinking about that keeps my nicotine soaked mind from thinking of the other!

Ha will do...its been three weeks so who knows...i had a buddy that lost 25 lbs doing it so i thought i would try...however he drank 6-10 a night so that might have had something to do with it.

Actually slept ok...my 2 1/2 month old was a bit fussy which woke me up a few times but sleep has never been much of a problem for me. Fucking rain derailed my grilling plans but hey, still quit...looking forward to a weekend of no work! It's actually a little easier to deal with the fits when i'm home! Nicin bad this morning but i made a promise!

I heard this on a tv show a few years ago and i actually wrote it down, i'll give you all the quote and give you a small back story..."scars remind us where we've been, the don't have to dictate where we are going." The last ten years or so have left me with a few emotional and physical scars and all have given me the excuses to keep using the dip. No longer will i let them dictate where i am going.
Where your scars, they have made you what you are today, but don't let them dictate your where you are going....

Man I am an August quiter. On day 7. Just did come out of the fog "the suck". It was hell for me. Ready for the next set of challenges to hit me, I know their coming. Anyway go post roll get off your ass and be part of our quit group. This is the place to quit. The guys are tough but a huge help. There are badass quiters in every stage of the quit so guys like you and I always know what challenges we are facing next. this is it man.
We can be tough but that is because we are all addicts and have suffered the SUCK of quitting and have all been that lame ass slave to nicotine and can't be fooled by addict talk! Drink deep of the koolaid, Jim jones had koolaid that stopped life but KTC has quit koolaid, and it is as effective as jones'.
Listen to what all these bad ass quitters are telling you. KTC saved my life and countless others before me and their will be milliions more after me. If you haven't already just head on over to the August 13 quit group and post roll, honor your word and then repeat. Get to know your quit brothers and sisters and get yourself some numbers and use them any time you need them!!! I will quit with you all day and everyday!!! if you need anything at all just pm me.

7 days...that is all. Not even close to being out of the woods but damn i'm feeling good...Yesterday was something awful as far as the physical craves go but i am learning that when i actually get up and so something before work, like run or go to the driving range and hit balls, the craves are lessened almost 100%. Quit on all you bad asses...and Boiler the Fuck UP!
-
I'm outta here for the night...see you guys for day 8 of my quit...quit on and BTFU!

Over the 1 week hump...hope all my quit brothers and sister are doing well...looking forward to my first summer since i was probably 13, tobacco free! Hope everyone is safe and has good weather to enjoy...i'm going home this evening for some brats on the grill and possibly a cold beer or 7!

Alcohol is one of the most common quit killers early in a quit. Don't be a dumbass. Most recommend waiting at least 30 days, preferrably longer, before tying one on.
Congrats on the week! Let's make sure you make it to 8 days by not forgetting about your promise to be nicotine free today.

While i do appreciate your concern, alcohol for me has not been much of a trigger. I have a drink or 2 almost every night and i never chewed at home, which is where i have the drinks so i don't really link the two...Now i used to all the time but it isn't a problem anymore. If i were in your shoes i probably would have said the same thing, but like i said, i just don't correlate the two anymore.

Lucky you jayd. Gotta say I am envious. Lol. I do correlate the two and hey I have to really sike my quit up before I drink and really monitor the amount as if I have to drive home.

If, when you are drunk, you come across an old tin stored in a Winter jacket pocket, you have to say "What would Smokey do?" before doing anything silly. "What would Smokey do?"
Now - have a great evening. Enjoy your new found freedom!

Ha, well Smokey, i have checked all pockets and drawers and any nook and cranny that i have hid the can before and i no longer have any to come across. And if drunk....well let's just say that if i were to be dumb enough to drive to the store and get anything i am risking a few years in the pokey...they tend to frown on multiple offenders in this state.
And yeah Erussel, i imagine if i would have kept dipping in front of my wife when i drank when i started dipping again in march after a failed 2 month quit (doesn't really count when you smoke pretty much the whole time) i would be hard for me as well. However, i only really ever drink when i'm at home and that happens to be where my wife lives too so i have been able to disassociate the two even when i was dipping.
Again, thanks again all for your concern though!!! Sorry for the extended ramblings but i just went through a minor crave and thought i would share some thoughts!
8 Days!!! BTFU

If it wasn't for diesel I wouldn't be where I am today. He's definitely on the list of brothers that helped save my life, so I will back him up to the grave.
The only sides are us against nic. that's it.
Jay you can support anyone you like, I can tell you have a good heart.
BUT remember your only as strong as the people surrounding you. Most of the people I communicate with are very strong. I don't waste time with weakness anymore. I have better things to do. I surround myself with people that have the same resolve as me.
Once (when I was young) I had a boss who was a complete fucking moron. One day his boss pulled me aside. He said he saw my frustration. I told him I had no respect for my boss,. and he told me. There are 2 kinds of people. Ones you want to watch and learn from, and ones you don't. Sometimes you can take bits and pieces from different people. I'll never forget that. I will always support someone because that's the right thing to do, but that doesn't mean I'll learn from them. We just don't want you learning from the wrong people.
I'm just saying this is about YOUR quit, and no-one else's. I support all the quitters, failures all, but there are a few that I really learned from, and got me to where I am today (290). Just keep quitting your doing great..

Thanks Kana...i definitely agree with learning a little from everyone. And i respect that you owe diesel for helping you a long...we are all weak when we first start...hell i'm weak as hell right now, if i was strong i would have never picked up the stupid shit 17 years ago. I believe unless you are some sort of pedophile or something like that, you deserve my treating you like a human being. i want to bring everyone with me...whether they are weak or strong, i want to bring them all along on this journey with me. I'm not going to belittle them and beat them down, thats too EASY. I've been given many chances to turn my life around in many different ways and to be honest, dip was the least of the people's concern when it comes to me, but they never gave up, they showed me respect, after i lied, they showed me love again and again, and if it wasn't for a few of those people i most likely would either be dead or in jail. I'm just paying it forward....

Day 15 and this has been a fun little ride so far...and yes i said fun. A lot of things were said yesterday, and i'm not going back to that except to say that i stand by my support for anyone that wants it in the battle to quit.
As for me, well my quit is probably about the same as most at day 15. I think about dip about every hour but its not as hard to think about it. It's not easy but it's getting there. Actually about half of my craves are more for a cigarette then dip but nothing i can't say no to.
I am part of a group that is called "Bad Ass Quitters". Although i am proud to be a part of this group i do not see myself as any bad ass..got love for my august guys and the select few of the vets that have reached out to me offering words of encouragement and thoughts. Contrary to what has been written about me by one or two of the older guys, i do have respect for those that have shown it to me and again, by no means do i think i'm a bad ass in any way.
Anyhow, just had some things on my mind on this Wednesday afternoon. Go Pacers this evening!

Jay, just keep quitting. I followed that death trap of a thread yesterday like it was Days of our Lives. I am glad you have found the resources in your August brothers and sisters to be QLF!
Quit for yourself everyday, I quit with you today!

Jay call or text me I will gladly post for you. This site shouldn't drag you down, again we are here to support one another, yet there is the accountability, that is the part that stings. Trust me we have all had some of it, sometimes openly and sometimes privately, I myself have had my ass chastised pretty good a time or two no worries as I now know the rules and program, not that I won't fuck up again lmao and I'm sure someone will quickly learn me! Just remember its when people stop correcting you that you are in trouble, that's when you have been given up on by your peers. You hang in there man I am quitting with you and I care about your quit as well as mine.
I posted this inAugust. I want to be sure you see it.

Copied over from your quit group since it'll get lost there...
Hello August boys and girls...i will not be around a computer for the next few days so i will be contacting a brother or two and making my promise to them. This has been a very disheartening week (and no not because of steve) for me on this website and i hope to come back Monday with some positive energy. You ALL have my full support for your quit and i will quit with you every day.Â
Peace.

X 2.
That fucker pissed me off early on too! 'na na' But now I :wub: the Coach! Well maybe not that, maybe more like 'BanDog'
She is whispering in your ear to walk away, that's the nic bitch, "come back to me Jay, I will let you lick my drippy snatch Jay" 'Y' Don't do it! Don't walk away from here, walk away from her!
I promise you that if you stick around through the HoF, through the 100 days, that you will have a different outlook about this place and people like Coach Waterboy! shocker
When she whispers in your ear punch her right in the snatch! 'nutkick' If that doesn't work then blow a load into her face 'sos' Masturbation is a great quitter stress reliever... 'jerk'
If you want to PM and talk shit about Coach Steve let me know 'tease' , if you need another number let me know and I will give you the one from the truck stop restroom 'archer' Seriously you can have mine if you need it!
Felt just like you at one time... day 515 for me today

Meant to reply to this when i got home last night but was too tired! I wasn't pissed at Steve, i got a good chuckle at his posts last week. There was some other shit on here that i didn't really like but after a nice long weekend of being away from work and away from the computer screen and hanging with the buddies, i'm all good now. I didn't realize how gross this sit can be.
I was on a 5 1/2 drive south to Tennessee when the two boys i was riding with pulled out their cans of skoal straight...i chewed pretty much anything that was straight flavored. The smell alone about made me puke, i thought the smell would be the hard part but really it just made me sick.
Then we get down there to the golf course and met up with one of more impressive human beings i've ever met...13 deployments overseas, into some of the really darker parts of the war that we don't read or watch about. But anyway, he chewed straight up cope snuff (i used to chew that all the time in high school). Big ol hogger sticking straight out of his lip with the shit all over his lip. He did not gut it so i got to watch him spit the shit and again, about got sick just watching it.
So boys and girls, instead of thinking it would be insanely hard not to chew on this trip, it turned out that my quit was strengthened but the vulgarity of such a disgusting habit!
-
Day 32...for some strange reason craving like a little bit but it is a little bit a lot of the time...don't know what that is about...anyhow i'm good...excited to be into month 2...cheers ya'll
-
So, not out of the woods....probably will never be completely, but i'm on day 50. Haven't chewed for 50 days....feel awfully good to be able to say that...those that have helped the first 50 thanks...and to all you newbies....this is in no way a slam on anyone else on here, but to all you newbs...grab a hold of Erussell and Jake and listen to those boys...just by posting roll for me when i couldn't or bullshitting with me via text (that would be jake) it has gotten me through some harder days.
And just because sportsfan is an IU fan, doesn't make him a bad guy...misguided in his fandom but another great ally!
Quit on!

I forgot about Wastepanel...my bad...he's a bad ass

Good job on 50 Days! Many more coming I know! And just so you know, the random texts have helped on some of my shitty days also.

I have a complaint...maybe a general rant, who knows, but i've read a few things about triggers and a "good time to quit" bullshit that seemed to get glossed over by almost everyone...
First of all, quitting sucks...there is no good time to do it, you just do it....you put on your big boy pants, post roll and quit one day at a time. Or one hour at a time or one minute at a time...just get it done every fucking day.
Triggers...Life is a trigger. I'm sure every single person that can honestly say they are addicted to chew can make an excuse that this or that is a trigger. If i avoided any or every trigger that i have i wouldn't be able to work, fish, golf, drive, deal with a hormonal wife, a colic baby, crazy ex wives, walking, grocery shopping, read a newspaper, get on the computer, hand with the boys, drink beer, drink whiskey, drink wine, eat an apple, eat a steak, eat food in general...get the point?
I for one, am not going to avoid life because i am quit. I choose to remain quit regardless of what i do because quitting is a choice. Triggers are man made excuses to cave and avoid life. Triggers are triggers because you make them so. If you can't handle being around your "triggers" then you haven't learned much from this site...it gives you the tools to handle that.
Lastly i am no vet...i'm on day 51, but i get tired of people saying to they are going to avoid this or that because its a potential trigger...LIFE IS A TRIGGER...you going to avoid it? If you do, the addiction wins

I have a complaint...maybe a general rant, who knows, but i've read a few things about triggers and a "good time to quit" bullshit that seemed to get glossed over by almost everyone...

I agree, but I also believe that there are certain triggers that should be avoided (drinking yourself out of control for one). All triggers are are situations that your brain associates primarily with nicotine. Ever wonder why the first three days are soooo bad? Its because your brain associates EVERYTHING with nicotine. But, once you power through those first few days, you can return back to basic functions.
When most people talk about triggers, they are special situations that weren't everyday activities. Honestly, it's going to take a few times golfjng, hunting, fishing, bath house visiting to break that association. One of the biggest triggers around for most quitters is the changing of seasons. Memories of baseball games, football games, Christmas parties, etc come flooding back and our brains make that association.
So, face your triggers.
Just don't do it in a stupid manner. Plan for them.

well done Jay as you have hit it on the head that Life is a trigger,
what we all need to do is push through as Waste says and be smart about it when we tackle any of those memories that the nic bitch lays on us.
so yes, we need to enjoy living and even those trips to the Bath Houses without the crap in our lip 'crackup'

You had me at bath house... :wub:

I agree but like Waste said, u gotta be smart about it.
2 days quit taking a 3 hr drive to golf with your cigar smoking buddies for a booze and stripper fueled weekend could kill a man. Not literally but you get my drift.
Sure you gotta live life as its one big trigger but you also have to look at things realistically.
Nobody says avoid triggers forever, when a quits extremely wet behind the ears, they may not have the tools to deal with super strong triggers. Over time you acquire the tools and bash the fuck out of them.
Just gotta know your limits and be smart about it.
That's my squirt of piss that I'm sure nobody cares about....lol

I understand what you are saying diesel...however, no matter what stage you are on in your quit, you are going to face triggers...on day one, if you read through this site as much as you should, the tools are there...i had erussells # and a butt load of info and tools, i'm not saying it's easy because it's not, but i had the tools the minute i got onto this site and read.
I think you touched on something that strikes a nerve (not in a bad way and i'm not trying to insight world war 3 on here like i have in the past)...but when you say look at things realistically...yeah you don't want to take a tour of a damn tobacco factory but being realistic is what brought on my mini rant...life is real, i love hanging with my buddies too much to give that up because it might be a potential trigger...yeah it's hard, but it's my quit...not theirs. The minute one joins this site the are owning their quit or at least they should, and owning it is the reason jake isn't caving at work, or kc didn't cave when he lost his job...day 1---day 365---if you own it then there is no trigger
-
As much as i do like my job and look forward to maybe owning my own lot one day soon...the down time that a car salesman addicted to nicotine adds an extra little obstacle! Boredom is and will always be my biggest trigger, along with about 100 others...luckily i have this board to keep my company! It also wouldn't hurt if someone would come buy a fuckin car off of me!
I quit with you all for the next hour...
Bro ..this is the reality of where you were when you first quit. It took you a day to learn to post roll. Nobody can acquire all the tools on day one.
Also, nobody said STOP living your life, just that you may need to pump the brakes a bit when yoi first take off. Small price to pay for freedom if you ask me.
Easy to talk big and bad (I do it all the time ) after you have a full tool belt, but when you first get here, you just want to SURVIVE for a little while.
Need proof go back and re read your own thread.
-
Avoiding the triggers to me is almost the same as using a patch to quit....no matter when you decide to face your trigger(s) its going to be difficult.
And i'm not talking all big and bad (i find huge irony that you diesel called me out on that) i'm stating that when you give validity to your triggers, it's more of an excuse to cave.
"hey pot (that would be me) your black" thanks kettle (that would be diesel)" although i sense you softening up a bit in your old age...a few of these youngin's have gotten away with some shit without you calling them out....whats the deal man? losing your edge?

Amen quit brother Amen. You gotta own your quit to get through the rough times. Keep it up brother. Each day we are winning.

NOBODY said AVOID triggers simply tackle them smartly. A lot of vets say stay away from alcohol for awhile, you better jump in their shit next time.
You make it sound like I'm saying NEVER do certain things again. Simply not true.
Also, I can't follow every fucking new person who joins the site. What the fuck. Guess that means I'm getting soft, eh?
From now on when I see your name I'm just gonna move along.
I think you're one of the few people on this site I just can't mix with.

I think what Diesel is saying is becareful no sense taking risks, it starts out with your fingers in the bitch then your face down in the crotch of a can. I stayed away from everything in the beginning I knew I was a weak ass when it came to dippin so for me the best thing I could do is try the activity w/o booze just the activity then move to trying the activity w booze just to see how I did. Plus I let peeps know, not under any circumstances am I allowed to dip it is not ok.
I really think Diesel is just trying to look out for you. Friendly advice nothing more.

wasn't disagreeing...just had a different insight i thought...oh well. and easy killer...i didn't disagree with you or say that you meant to avoid all triggers all the time, and i thought i was kidding...does something about my name just get your blood boiling? Did i wrong you in another life brother (name that movie reference)? I was simply making an observation about triggers and wanted to give my perspective on my intro page...seriously man, you talk more shit and jump all over peoples shit more than anyone on this site...and i make a little joke at you and you get all offended...if you can't handle a joke then stop parading around here like the resident bad ass.
Trauma, thank you for your response.

I wasn't offended by a single word you said. Don't flatter yourself. And I never claim to be any kind of bad ass. In fact I often say I'm the biggest pussy ktc has ever seen.
Also I encourage more than I supposedly "jump in their shit". I'm just very emotional and protective of the principles of this site.
Go blow or out your ass, I know, that's sooo 80's right?

Who's on top? You guys are awesome! I'm staying out of this one.......

That would be me Jake...normally when i bullshit with someone that i have recently pm'd to bury the hatchet and they still can't take any thing...then try the old "don't flatter yourself" after the defended everything they said and got defensive about everything i said...yeah i'm on top.
See Diesel...you may not know it, but i'm helping you....you get all worked up over dumb shit, see you need to work on that. are you breathing? or are you sitting on the other end fuming because i tried to have an intelligent conversation with you and proceed it with a little friendly jab? deep breaths my quit brother... :unsure:

There's no fight here and I'm not mad. Never was. If there were and i was, you would know it.
You also fought everything I said until T said something....THEN you agreed with me, go back and read. But whatever.
You're not helping me and I don't get all worked up over dumb shit. Did I blow a gasket here and not know it?
I'm done wasting my time with petty bickering.
When I feel strongly about something I get worked up.
This isn't worth my time nor energy.
Like I said, when I see your name I'm just gonna move along. Enough of this Jr. High drama. I have better things to do. This really is a waste of time.
Diesel signing off your thread for the last time.
Stay quit.

This has nothing to do with quitting anything but i saw this on the internet and i had to laugh...
"Alcohol won't solve your problems, but neither will milk!"
All i can say, is it sure is friday and i am a little slap happy....quit on
-
So i just went and bought some jerky chew...wasn't overly craving anything but i saw it and thought what the hell...could help on bad days...packed a fat lip full of fucking teriyaki jerky chew...i am laughing at myself right now...not bad really! I used to eat this stuff when i was a kid to look cool, now i wish i would have just kept doing that instead of the real thing..seriously, not anything in your lip for 69 days and putting something in there feels very strange...quit on ya'll

If you've done without it for 69 days, why would you start? Kick that oral fixation bro. It is harder than the chemical addiction. Don't go down that road because you are likely to start the whole justification process.
"I already spend money on fakie, may as well buy real".
"I stuff my lip with fakie, mays well stuff it with real"
"I carry a tin in my pocket, may as well get real"
That may not be you...but it is sure how LOOT's mind works. Once that justification ball starts rolling, you will fail.
Now...if you need it to break a crave...that's one thing (although seeds would be better). However, if you are packing your lip just for fun, you are opening yourself up to a world of pain bro. Think about it.

Hell i've been eating seeds a lot as well...i'm good man...my quit is good, it's beef jerky...not even really the "fake". i love beef jerky, just haven't had it out of a can since i was like 12.

i agree...loot is wise. i think though...standing in line at a c store and looking at cans of real dip, having a can of beef jerky isn't a big deal...maybe i'm wrong.

Ya, I am new to this game, and it may seem fun and silly to pack your lip again, but really, whether it is intended or not, you are flirting with the nicbitch. It is one thing to use the fake during the first stages of a quit (I am still stuffing seeds) but I am afraid you are going to wake the bitch up. Best not to flirt with girls you ain't tryin' to take home.

Listen to Loot. Loot knows these things.
protect your quit.

As i have been somewhat of a proponent of not using the fake i will preface this by stating i still don't want to use that...specifically because i would get the same flavor as i used for the real stuff.
But if we are getting technical here on the oral fixation, isn't that what using regular or sugarless gum is? Isn't putting a big ole wad of seeds in your mouth replacing chaw?
These things including jerky chew were given to me as tools in my quit tool box. now i can't use them? I never ran into a teriyaki flavored dip before. I'm just a little confused at the moment. I will keep my little silly NON dip ventures to myself from now on.

You eat pizza...you ever stuff it in your lip? For hours? The list goes on.
Again...do what you gotta do to keep the real stuff outta your face. For LOOT, letting anything sit in his lip like a dip, is a one way ticket to hell. LOOT knows LOOT too well. Knows exactly where that goes. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow. But it would eventually stuffing a lip full of anything would just start the process.
Don't get all huffy. We's just trying to get you to think ahead. See both sides of it.
Won't bust in on your node again bro. No worries.

All Loot and the boys are saying is this......
There are multiple parts to your addiction. Obviously there is the actual addiction to Nicotine which we all know lasts 3-4 days depending on your personal make up etc etc...... Then there is the oral fixation of stuffing that stuff into your pothole which is the second phase. Typically using the fake to get through the fogg and first couple of weeks is a good way to beat off the bad craves and allow you to concentrate on one thing.....NOT CHEWING! Once you are good there then its time to work on beating the oral part. I used fake for 60 days or so. Their point is and I agree with them.....If you have made it this far with out using anything why start now? Jerkey, fake, whatever it is......
You are a stud quitter. We are just offering up some advice. Your Quit is YOUR Quit!!
Stay Strong Brother!!

I'm no stud...just a guy. I'll be a stud when i have what loot and all you's got as far as days quit. i still crave, some days it feels like the first few, but i've had to be inventive in my strategies to kill any craves...i've eaten a bag of mints in a day, chew seeds, mow, walk, have beers whatever works...as i said, i wasn't really craving much when i bought the jerky...and loot, that was funny about pizza and to be completely honestly weird...sometimes when i'm eating i'll stuff whatever in my old pocket of my mouth that i used to put the shit (i know, very weird). But anyhow...thanks for the concern...didn't mean to get huffy...you guys are good people but like j said...it is my quit and i will do what i have to do to not put any real chew in my mouth today...just like i will tomorrow.

Big day for this quitter tomorrow. I hear that train a comin it's Rollin round da bend!!! Choooo Choo we are coming to get your ass in the morning bro.

I don't really know how to start this so i just will...i don't really remember when the last post i had was on KTC...it has been quite some time...i wish i was writing this to tell you all how successful i've been since leaving, but sadly i am not. I am writing to say that i caved....and it wasn't yesterday. It was quite a long time ago about a month or so after my last post. I know the drill as far as the 3 questions and i will get to those...
First and foremost i need to apologize to my original quit group, August 2013. There are no words really. To eddie and jake i'm sorry i haven't been around and i'm sorry i let you guys down. To the others that reached out when i first started this almost a year ago i'm sorry.
If i remember...when, why and what....
Well the when is kind of foggy. I think it was around October but i can't really pin point the date...i know i hadn't posted anything in awhile...
The why is even foggier...stupidity is the word that comes to mind. same old bullshit that all of us have used in the past...let my guard down, was probably stressed about something...the point is i don't really know other than i'm an addict and i lost sight of that.
As far as what i am going to do different...well to that i can't say...i worked the odaat for a long time...but stopped using it...forever seemed so far away. But now i have to understand what i'm up against and lean on those that will let me...i know some won't but i will do what i can to get back in the good graces of others...while taking care of my own shit, i hope to do just that. trust is important to me and i know i broke that with some and for that I apologize.
-
I merged your intros.
So much to say, but not enough time. Read back from your first post in here. As for your former group, one of those that you mention also caved, but he started over just over a hundred days ago. Tell me about your plan to make this your Quit and not another stoppage.
-
Jayd this May seem odd but I have a request. Tell us what it was like. In other words, did you enjoy it at first, promise yourself only so much per day, only one can, etc etc etc. then I would like to know why you come back here. Not trying to be an ass, I want to understand the feeling of wishing you hadn't caved. Seriously, I'm curious. What is caving like? Do you mind walking us down the path for the last few months?
Respectfully and sincerely. Mogul

thanks evil...its been so long i couldn't find it...i took some of this for granted while i was in my first quit. My words are fairly meaningless at the moment even to me...but i plan on using my friends that i met here before and also leaning on my new quit group...i know how the first few days are going to go and i'm ready for some of the shit i'll take for caving because its warranted...for now...keep my head down and get through today.

very hard to answer you mogul...my cave wasn't on dip, it was on a cigarette...at work...and yes i did tell myself those things...i would limit it, i'd be able to kick those no problem...well one thing led to another and i bought a can...then..well it just spiraled out of control...like or love are not the words...there isn't a word invented yet i don't think...i'm might ashamed though

We have been talking for a couple days and I have to say that I am glad you are here posting a day 1. I know from experience that coming back can be hard as hell. I caved shortly before hitting the second floor. I lost sight of everything and I let the BITCH back in. Letting us down isnt the point today. Caving lets yourself down. Today you have to start all over again and go through the suck for a second time. Its not any better the second time. Focus on today! Make a plan to be quit today and then follow it tomorrow as well. First step to the plan needs to be posting roll. That was where it all started to unravel for you. We talked most days before you left and I will be here again for you! We both have alot in common. I am back on the first floor and my quit is strong. The past does not dictate today. Post roll and own this quit! You know the basics. Now you need to FEEL it! Its gonna be rough for a bit again, But you know what to expect. Take this all in and grow from it. Some of my role models here have stood in the same spot you are in now. You can regain your honor and integrity. My best advice is sit back, watch, and listen. This brotherhood can be rough at times but it comes from caring for each other and knowledge of our addiction. I will quit with you today! I plan to also quit with you tomorrow. A wise man told me several times...... Keep your nose to the grindstone!

Welcome back.
Brotherhood + Accountability = Success
It sucks to come back and have to face the reality that... you failed let yourself and the brotherhood down. Being a slave, or dying, sucks worse.
There have been a lot of people return to KTC lately. Every one of them has posted a similar story... they were busy, they stopped posting (accountability), they were confident they could make it alone and didn't use their support system (brotherhood).... = FAILURE
I will offer a few words of advice:
1. Jake is a good contact. He is a bad ass bulldog, and he will keep your nose to the grindstone. Keep in close contact with him for a while, and make some other contacts. Reach out to the August brotherhood - they care more than you know. I've posted with them every day for over 300 days... you need to do the same, along with your new group (June 2014.)
2. You need to post roll first thing every day. Every single day - without exception. If you don't you will get called out. And that call out will not start with "welcome back." Serious quitters take the process seriously. My goal is to never be in the shoes that you and Jake were (are) in when you returned to KTC, because I never want to be a slave again... and the only way for me to do that is to post my word every day and be a man of integrity. You failed because you quit the system.
3. Focus all of your energy on being successful right now. You might slack a little at work. You might not be as outgoing at home or with friends. You are, whether you realize it or not, fighting for your life right now. The fight isn't forever as you know... but the initial steps are brutal. You brought this on yourself, and you owe it to yourself to be all in.
4. Print off the words that you just typed out and put them in your wallet. Anytime that you feel a craving coming on for the next few days, pull that piece of paper out. Read how disappointed you were in yourself. How ashamed you were when you typed those words. And how your words describe how you let your team down. Then know that your actions since that post reflect character, strength, and dignity. And that you are a man taking your life back. Put it in your wallet.
It sucks that you quit your quit last time. This time you are focused. And this time you will follow the plan every damn day. My contact info is yours for the taking if you need another contact - be aware that taking my contact information comes with a promise from you - a promise that you will call me before you give in to nicotine. Shoot me a PM and let me know - your post gives promise that you are worth the bet.

And if i have to eat my words because he caves, then i'll hunt him down and break his legs, but until then i'm quit with scott...-jayd41
Hmmm a vet carries that line in his signature block way more support than quite a few here. What happened to that kind of quit. What happened to texting calling what have you? I don't get it you just forgot all your tools or what. So now do you get it you can never just have one!!!! You are an addict you will always be.
If I were you I would build accountability into your new plan reaching out far and wide and protecting this quit with your life because it is. You became complacent and you became in perfect alignment to get the results you got. This time don't make the HOF the finish line it aint its a milestone there is not finish line when dealing with addiction. PM me if you need a number.

When you faded away it was a real head scratcher for me too Jay, you seemed so involved I was surprised when you quit posting. I was in August with you, Jake, Eddie and the rest....albeit I made only made a couple days but I lurked and watched as my fellow August quitters kept piling up the days.
I have made it through 247 days nicotine free and have posted roll every day and believe that is what it takes to have continued freedom. I am glad to see you back for two reasons. The first obviously being your own health and freedom, the second is for the reminder that no matter how many days we may put behind us, complacency can put us right back where we started.
If you want my support, I'll be glad to give it, just shoot me a PM.

Hey, man. I'm new to the program but I'm all in. If you ask me, caves are something we all need to hear about. And we need to hear about them often.
I don't know you, bro. But I'll quit with you.

Good find there Trauma. Isn't it a real bitch when a string of simple words come back to haunt you? Words actually have meaning and are quite powerful. "I Quit" -- very strong words.

I am not going to lie. When you sent me the text today it took the wind out of my sails. You told me when you faded off you were fine and would still be quit. If memory serves me right you used the excuse of being tired of the drama on the site. I knew that was most likely your addict brain trying to get away from this site. This site is like kryptonite to nicotine, so your addiction wants as far away from it as you can get. See early on your motivated, you suffer, you grit your teeth and dig in, then over time you get brave and complacent, leaving yourself vulnerable to cave! It's one thing to slow down your activity on the site, it's another to leave. I post roll every day. I will continue to post roll as long as this site exist and or I die. That's the only way I can ensure the day will be nicotine free. My promise counts and I keep my word.
I suggest you learn from this and post every day here after!

Good luck Jay. Get back to posting roll and being strong with your quit.
Do it for your loved ones if not for yourself.
Save your own life!

I wanted to say that in a way its very good to be back...i wish it was different circumstances but can't change that now. Last night was brutal...today wasn't much fun either...my brain is just a step slow and the fog is thick. I embrace the suck because thats what i know will work...i"ve had about 15 fireballs today which give a little pain that i accept..i deserve it...having a few work beers...to me it helps...to some it would be a bad idea..but it levels me out a bit. I quit today...i kept my word, and i quit tonight. I read through my inbox that i haven't looked at in forever and it made me sad...so much support i had...and so much support i had given...wasted. as i go through the fog...i also am going through the disappointment of letting a lot of people down...
So i got about 15 minutes left and i'm out til tomorrow...i give you all my word, that i will not use nic tonight...lord willing i'll post up tomorrow morning. Cheers ya'll. Thanks

I'm glad you have come back. It seems too many cave and aren't man enough to come back, admit your mistake and go forward from there (which you have done) . A couple points (which you likely already know)
So much of quitting is mental, rage is useful at first but it won't keep you going forever.
Most if not all of us have weak moments, I know I do. I don't enjoy posting every day, but it is the cost of staying quit. I would love to say I could stay quit if I no longer posted roll, but I can't.
Print the contract to quit, it has been a great reminder of why I want to be quit each day.
Do some things differently than last time, something about your last attempt was flawed, figure out what and change it.
Don't underestimate attitude, I've included a favorite quote:
Life's battles don't always go to the stronger or faster man. But sooner or later the man who wins, is the man who thinks he can -V Lombardi
I'm quit with you today.

I'm glad you have come back. It seems too many cave and aren't man enough to come back, admit your mistake and go forward from there (which you have done) . A couple points (which you likely already know)

^^^^ WELL SAID!!!! This quit for me has been the best experience of my life. My stoppage in the past was weak and filled with a negative outlook on quitting. This time, I embraced it! It was a chance to change myself. I think you learn a lot of yourself when you quit. And I truly believe you can not stay quit unless we change ourselves in the process. I had to change my outlook. This quit is real! I believe this quit is real for you as well JAYD41. Keep focusing on your ODAAT. You came back after caving. You KNEW you would catch shit for it. And yet you came back. Those are actions made by a man who wants to be quit! I Will quit with you again tomorrow!

Quittin with you Jay. Hang in there.

I would be lying if I said I didn't want it to suck for you I really do I want it to be awful and then when you get through it all I want you to remember NAFAR not just letters strung together they mean something. IMO I feel the worse the suck is for people the less they want to go through it again. I shit my guts out cramped up couldn't sleep like some cheap crack whore only difference is the legality of the substance. Picture yourself as a strung out junkie coming down. You have this JayD get through the suck keep your head down like you have been doing. Focus on yourself man you need to be selfish as fuck and guard this quit. See you tomorrow good lord willing.

Thanks you guys...i appreciate it...NAFAR is a heavy term Trauma...i know its a staple here at KTC...but for today...i just have today...i don't have forever or never again...i have today. And yes you are definitely getting your wish about this sucking, because it does...i knew it would....having some good folk around here like you all that were there before and are still here now is a good feeling to have and it helps a lot. It is nice to see that some things don't change and there's still some raging pricks hanging around, but its comforting to know...Anyhow, like i said, its good to be back with you all...peace...

So i normally have a pretty non stress job...i mean i sell cars and make an ok living doing it and all that....but i will say that some days are just stupid stressful days that make you want to just go crazy...so here's what just happened...had a paper jam in the fax machine...keep in mind i'm on day 3 of my quit...i did everything the stupid fucking machine is asking me to do and it still beeping at me that there is a paper jam when clearly there is not a paper jam...so i'm a volcano...there's shit that needs to be done that can't be done without that stupid machine and i do a perfect round house kick to the wall! No karate lessons by the way...anyhow...i have big feet...like size 14...and now there is a giant hole in the drywall where i had my little fit and the boss is on his way back...this could get interesting...however i do have a drywall guy coming to fix it so hopefully that will ease the boss's mind. anyhow...that's what the nic rage makes you do...just awful...

So i have a very weird question to anyone who reads this..and i'll start by telling my side of it...i am scared to death to eat an apple...for whatever reason, after i eat an apple i get hit very hard with a physical crave for chew...i have no idea why...back in my full blown chewing days i would eat an apple just for the intense crave that i got...how sick and weird is that? Anyhow...can someone tell me if i am just a complete weirdo with this apple thing or does anyone else have this issue?
I have an apple in the fridge here are work and i am literally scared to eat it.

My advice... If the apple bothers you -- dump it and move on. No big deal. Maybe 1 day they won't. Same goes for pears.

Odd no doubt. I had an intense crave after eating anything when I was using, and slowly subsided as my quit grew strength. I can't recall any specific foods being more so than others, if I had to guess, its because your mouth is clean after the apple. Eating an apple is close to brushing your teeth. Just a wild guess.
-
Yeah i have no idea...i was about 21 when i remember it starting and always thought it was a very odd thing and thought maybe some other fellas would have the same thing...it does confirm that i am a little weird i guess. oh well! I've always known that. but as for today...day 7 i am quit..how do you like them apples?!

maybe you should try eating some 100 dollar drywall to head off the craves that apples give you.

Changing our lives and moving in positive directions are often a side effect of our quits. It tends to make us better people in other areas of life. Rock on!

Jayd, you can stop talking about your cave now as far as I am concerned. This is a new you. A day 10 quit you. A different you than last time. A more dedicated you. Quitting is hard but I agree it is so worth it. Have a great weekend free from Fax machines!

But thanks rdad...i will say though that talking about my cave is good for me and maybe good for those that are thinking of leaving the site...

Believe it or not some people (my kids included) don't even know what a fax machine is.

Agreed. At some point the cave becomes the past and not the present. Lets not bring it up again unless it is to encourage or teach, (no need to knock yourself anymore). It is a valuable life lesson and can be used to inspire. After 10 days quit, you have earned the right to focus on today and not the past! It takes ball to be here and each day is a victory. Id rather talk about that! Enjoy the weekend bro. Ill get ahold of you tomorrow. I need to talk some shit! It's been a stressful week. Quit with you all day!

So its been 2 weeks since i reached out to Jake about bringing my sorry ass back here. I'm very glad/proud that i did and its been great meeting the new people and reconnecting with some of the old...
My biggest hurdles are behind me but hurdles lie ahead i'm sure...my problems in the past at this particular point and pretty much from here on out will be cigarettes...see i always dipped and just smoked every once in awhile when i drank and what not...but smoking during my hiatus became much more of a crutch to hold up my addiction then i had let it in past. Thing is, i have a ton of people that come into my office that just fucking wreak of smoke and it really makes me sick...i don't know why the urge f0r smoking hits so hard sometimes. I guess i am a walking example of a nicotine addict...not just a chew or cigarette addict...its easy to see no that its the nic that i'm addicted too...not just the method.

Embrace the struggles brother. I have friends that dip that are around all the time but I welcome those times when I'm confronted with being face to face with the cravings. If you struggle hard right now, welcome it because it will be easier down the road when you get through it and you'll be better equipped to deal. You can do this bro!

Agreed. You and I know the auto industry is riddled with tobacco. Most at my company chew. I see it around all the time. Thankfully its against policy to chew in the showrooms now, but it is still around. I think it makes you stronger in your quit to be able to look it in the face and say no! And those who knew you before you quit will see the change, and hopefully become inspired. Lead with it. Your kicking ass bro!

yeah jake the industry of selling cars and being addicted to nicotine...such a bad combo. Almost every aspect of the job is a trigger...there are days where it's just constant boredom, sitting in front of a computer screen, waiting for someone to come and buy a car...haggling with idiots that have shitty credit and no money....selling a car to those same people only for them to come back and bitch about the car they just bought...knowing they couldn't get credit to buy a car anywhere else. Working late only to not have a soul come onto the lot....every little thing is a trigger to make a mistake.
But this car guy's saving grace is this site...i have the ktc page up on my computer almost constantly...staying glued so i don't walk my happy ass down to the store. So whatever comes my way in the form of cravings...i've got big support and giant reminders from the bad asses to stay the course and i do...i do it for myself first but you guys are with me every step of the way...we've got giant pricks and huge assholes that piss me off but really they keep me quit out of spite...so really fuck you assholes i'm not going anywhere. Anyhow..those are jay's ramblings for today...see ya'll around these parts.

I used to think that Dipping gave me something to do. In college, I dipped when I studied late hours, then when I started working in retail pharmacy (and you can't really dip when behind the bench) and dipping was something to do when I unwound after a 12-hour shift. Then when I moved to an office job, it was something to do on the drives home, then eventually while I worked. It's always been there to fill the misconceived voids of time. And...there is the addict. Clearly having a stationary wad of nasty tasting cancer causing worm dirt in your lip and spitting into a bottle is not doing something. If anything it's doing something stupid. Doing something would actually entail physicial exertion or mental enrichment. Exercise, doing actual work, playing with the kids, reading/posting on KTC, strengthening my quit. Those are examples of doing something. The misconceived voids of boredom or daily life are not removed with nicotine...instead you're just bored and using nicotine. And again here we are: 1 problem + nicotine = 2 problems.

Before coming back to KTC i almost just said fuck it and bought the e-cig...i have a smoker friend that said she switched to them and felt better and blah blah blah...so glad i decided against that shit...my prediction is they find out in the near future that these are as bad or worse than regular smokes.
Plus there is nothing doucheier then seeing a grown ass man sucking on a glass dick...

If you do even a li'l research you'll find an absolute Pandora's box...
~ There's no regulation on these things. We get most of it from China and they don't have to tell us what's in their "mix".
~ They're finding traces of gnarly chemicals in the emissions... anit-freeze being one.
~ One refill vial is enough to kill a small child in minutes.
~People's homes are being burned down because chargers are failing and blowing up.
But, like you said, most important is that you look like a HUGE doosh sucking on one of these e-cig dildos!

sco you are a sick man! and yeah AJ....i got into it with someone in the comments section in an article on yahoo.com a few days ago...saying how nicotine in itself wasn't dangerous and that is all thats in the ecigs...i have done very little research on these things so i'll take whoevers word for it but my biggest argument was the slavery to nicotine...just another thing to keep people hooked. but yeah...anything that can kill anything in such a small dose is enough to keep me away.

Just read an awesome quote by Coach K on twitter---"Mental toughness can take you straight to the top, and mental weakness can take you straight to the bottom." We own our quits. That's mental toughness.

Hmmmmm, great thought, since quitting is all mental after 3 days I have to agree this aplies to us. Thanks for sharing Jayd

Mental toughness becomes easier as we focus on the right things in our quit. Post roll, honor your word. Watch your mental toughness grow.

So here's the deal KTC family...there is about the be a new addition to my actual family! Thats right, i knocked up mrs. jayd41 again...That makes two for us and 4 for me all together. We are 10 weeks in confirmed today and that would mean that puts the due date right around the first of November. So why am i telling you all this...well partly to brag...i'm a proud papa. And the other is to tell you that there are many excuses to dip...excuses and reasons are two different things....i had every excuse in the book and i normally rationalized those excuses to continue to abuse nicotine. And although i am overly excited to be a dad again i can tell you that this would have been another excuse to continue using for another 26-30 weeks...all of the other parents on this site can attest that being a parent while being the most fulfilling thing you can do, can also be the most stressful thing to do...especially to prepare for! Spouses get hormonal and you are wrong if you say the sky is blue some days...nerves are frayed just a bit especially as the end of the pregnancy gets near...and last time around we got to throw in colic baby with asthma which was just super! Anyhow...all of that is many excuses to cave and go back to dipping and/or smoking...but for today, that little peanut growing inside my wonderful wife...is my reason to stay quit...tomorrow i'll get back to quitting for me. There is always an EXCUSE to use, there is never a REASON. There is never an EXCUSE to quit...but only a REASON. if that makes any sense.

Spouses get hormonal and you are wrong if you say the sky is blue some days...nerves are frayed just a bit especially as the end of the pregnancy gets near...and last time around we got to throw in colic baby with asthma which was just super! Anyhow...all of that is many excuses to cave and go back to dipping and/or smoking...but for today, that little peanut growing inside my wonderful wife...is my reason to stay quit...tomorrow i'll get back to quitting for me. There is always an EXCUSE to use, there is never a REASON. There is never an EXCUSE to quit...but only a REASON. if that makes any sense.
That's awesome, man. Congrats!

So here's the deal KTC family...there is about the be a new addition to my actual family! Thats right, i knocked up mrs. jayd41 again...That makes two for us and 4 for me all together. We are 10 weeks in confirmed today and that would mean that puts the due date right around the first of November. So why am i telling you all this...well partly to brag...i'm a proud papa. And the other is to tell you that there are many excuses to dip...excuses and reasons are two different things....i had every excuse in the book and i normally rationalized those excuses to continue to abuse nicotine. And although i am overly excited to be a dad again i can tell you that this would have been another excuse to continue using for another 26-30 weeks...all of the other parents on this site can attest that being a parent while being the most fulfilling thing you can do, can also be the most stressful thing to do...especially to prepare for!

If you live below the Mason Dixon line you wouldn't understand my excitement for this weekend...this is the first weekend up here that it has been over 60 degrees! Planning on playing golf Saturday and Sunday and actually pretty jacked to do that nic free! Going to cook some pig on the grill and have some cold beer and maybe mix in a little rum. Can't fucking wait! Normally i'm excited for this kind of weather but this year i'm on overdrive because i get to enjoy it without the nic bitch hanging around! Quit on fellas and ladies

I hear ya LT...my daughter who's 6 used to always ask why i put "yucky" in my mouth...and my oldest son used to walk around spitting when he was like 2...pretty heartbreaking to think of that...but they won't ever see me do it again and hopefully the memory of dad doing it will fade...i don't know if it's good bad or whatever but my youngest has never seen dad chew and won't and this new one won't ever have to have a dad with nicotine in his system...thats fulfilling right there!

so i made it my goal to be 100% poster...i have texted in on days that i couldn't get to a computer and i can't tell you how much i appreciate the fellas that have posted for me...that being said..since the site was down on Sunday and Monday does my 100% get an * next to it? I know one thing..i posted today so i know i won't use any form of nicotine today. That is my promise. One day at a time

I personally think everyone should get credit for posting the past 2 days. Especially if you at least texted someone.
Make sure you stay 100% jayd.

So I'm normally pretty good about this stuff...birthdays, significant holidays what not...but I slipped today, and I'll blame the site being fucking weird today...but my quit today...my world today, is Boston Strong....1 year ago I watched safely from my little car dealership in horror at what was unfolding...felt sick. Nothing can compare to the pain and suffering that you all went through and as blasphemous as this might sound, is not even our quits can compare...the only thing we can do is hope to live up to you all that showed what true strength was/is. It makes my quit stronger and my pride as an American higher than ever...I might be in a tiny Midwestern town but I will echo what our American hero David Ortiz said..."THIS IS OUR FUCKING CITY!"...you Boston, will always be apart of this hillbilly from the Midwest....cheers

Day 30---1 month. 1 month ago i was sitting having supper with my 8 year old son at BW's and i remember looking at him and i almost started crying right there. You see my first time around here on KTC i told him all about my addiction. He had seen me dip his whole life and even caught me smoking a few times...but i don't think he ever understood what it was or what it was all about. Anyhow, i told about how it kills you and its very hard to quit but Dad was trying one day at a time. So fast forward to a month ago..we'd ordered our wings and i was having a beer when i looked at him...i was craving like a motherfucker and my only thought was how much i would have let him down if he knew that dad had caved. I was ashamed...anyhow...i was going through my phone and i still had Jake's number and Eddie's number. Eddie had sent me a text right around the time that Jake had caved and i never responded because well i was probably dipping when he sent me that text and i was very shameful. Anyhow, i decided to text Jake just to see how he was doing and he let me know his story...he had just hit the HOF for the second time. The one text i remember sending was, that i felt trapped...that was the best word to describe my addiction. I was told what i knew, that i would get my balls busted but i needed to come back...so i did. And 1 month later i know i'm quit for 30 days straight. I know i won't use nicotine today because i said i wouldn't. I'll worry about tomorrow when i get there but I am quit today and have been for 30 in a row! I feel better then i did the first time around, i have so much energy and no where really to direct it (selling cars doesn't burn a lot of calories). So i come on here...bitch at those that are jackasses and try to support those that want/need it. I know now, there is no finish line. There is just today. And today, is a good day because i am quit.

yep it appears that you are getting that change in mindset that you need to help you win this fight against addiction. There is a turning point its different for everyone but when you hit it you know it. That's not to say that there wont be struggle instead of sharp edges they will be blunted. rock on JayD have a good weekend hope the ether/ruffie bunny doesn't catch you sleeping....hahaha

I am proud to be quit with a badass quitter like you and the rest of our HOF group. You and I are both at the 30 day mark, but you sharing this story will help me not make the same mistake. Thank You! Quit with you EDD.

You might want to get on the cool aid with Splenda, your drinking it so fast the carbs are gonna make you fat. All jokes aside, I am glad to see you taking this approach. Keep drinking the cool aid. I quit with you.

Day 30---1 month. 1 month ago i was sitting having supper with my 8 year old son at BW's and i remember looking at him and i almost started crying right there. You see my first time around here on KTC i told him all about my addiction. He had seen me dip his whole life and even caught me smoking a few times...but i don't think he ever understood what it was or what it was all about. Anyhow, i told about how it kills you and its very hard to quit but Dad was trying one day at a time. So fast forward to a month ago..we'd ordered our wings and i was having a beer when i looked at him...i was craving like a motherfucker and my only thought was how much i would have let him down if he knew that dad had caved. I was ashamed...anyhow...i was going through my phone and i still had Jake's number and Eddie's number. Eddie had sent me a text right around the time that Jake had caved and i never responded because well i was probably dipping when he sent me that text and i was very shameful. Anyhow, i decided to text Jake just to see how he was doing and he let me know his story...he had just hit the HOF for the second time. The one text i remember sending was, that i felt trapped...that was the best word to describe my addiction. I was told what i knew, that i would get my balls busted but i needed to come back...so i did. And 1 month later i know i'm quit for 30 days straight. I know i won't use nicotine today because i said i wouldn't. I'll worry about tomorrow when i get there but I am quit today and have been for 30 in a row! I feel better then i did the first time around, i have so much energy and no where really to direct it (selling cars doesn't burn a lot of calories). So i come on here...bitch at those that are jackasses and try to support those that want/need it. I know now, there is no finish line. There is just today. And today, is a good day because i am quit.
I think... now... you get it.
That's what makes the difference.
Rock on brutha...
yep it appears that you are getting that change in mindset that you need to help you win this fight against addiction. There is a turning point its different for everyone but when you hit it you know it. That's not to say that there wont be struggle instead of sharp edges they will be blunted. rock on JayD have a good weekend hope the ether/ruffie bunny doesn't catch you sleeping....hahaha
You make MY quit stronger! Thank you for that! When you text me a month ago, I wasn't sure you would post your new day 1. I am so glad you did. And even happier to see what kind of person you are this time around. (though I miss some of our behind the scenes instigating).... LOL poor people. Trauma is right. (and he was the one who i text the day I came back, funny how the circle goes....)We all have a point in our quit when we GET IT. I remember that moment, it was when I was in GA with Eddie, And so many more moments since. I have all the faith in the world in the strength of your quit. Keep rocking it bro!

I have a wonderful wife...like i mentioned in an earlier post we are expecting our second child (my fourth!). With pregnancy comes hormones...oh the hormones...this weekend was just plain stupid. Went to bed with a happy wife on Friday...woke up to an irritable wife on Saturday and dealt with that pretty much all weekend...at least until about 4 pm Sunday...holy ballsack was that no fun. Anyhow...that normally was excuse enough for me to say fuck it. And honestly had a few moments when the bullshit was flying...but I made it through...THEN on top of all that I had a fucking crazy dip dream last night where there was hot ass women dipping passing a can sitting around the fire on a beach somewhere...then ended up driving down the road with one of those women and got pulled over for DUI...thats when i woke up in a huge panic! What a freakin weekend! Cheers mates

SO day 35 here...as i've tried to get involved with some other quitters i've learned a few things about the accountability and the support. I have got a handful of guys on here that i KNOW i can count on. I have reached out to them, they have done the same to me. Its good stuff...my quit is fuckin rock solid today. I've got 6 cans of hooch in my desk drawer if it ever gets shaky and i've got a handful of numbers.
To you noobs...get your handful of numbers. Besides posting, it is the most important thing you can do on this site...you'll actually make some friends over it...like real friends. You don't need 25 numbers, but it doesn't hurt.

Excuse me. Still learning my way around and messing up your journal.

MtThomas...while i appreciate your post it was in reply to my very first post on this site ever...which was last year in may...that post invariably has changed my life as i've gathered the strength to quit today.

So what a fucking day at work...i'm leaving here pretty stressed and about half pissed off at just about everything related to work! Got a nice long drive to think on it too...sometimes dealing with people that try to make life more complicated then it already is, is just maddening...arbitrary rules and regulations that cost me fuckin money really pisses me off. But not once did even think about walking down to the store...fixing problems and handling problems without nicotine eliminates a complication to the problem. Going to spend money on a pesticide isn't going to make me more money nor is it going to calm my nerves. Its going to cost me money and fray my nerves even more. Yelling at a lending agent without a dip is going to get my point across better than yelling at with a cat turd in my mouth. So fuck it....fuck dip, fuck smoke fuck it all...i'm going home for the weekend and i'm gonna enjoy a beautiful indiana spring weekend, eat some meat drink some beer and play with the kiddos...i'll be texting in my posts early on so i won't be able to keep big nasty in line like normal but quit the fuck on boys and girls.

So i'm beginning to think i have a temper or maybe just an intolerance to stupidity. I work with an older guy...he's in his early 70's. Anyhow...he is a lot like a lot of older guys from small town america and that is to say he came up with a very backward view on the world. A generation where most call the "golden" generation or whatever. I would agree that most of the folks in this era understand what a good hard days work is..more so then me, and they had it rough and they walked to school up hill both ways and yada yada. But this guy is such a fuckin racist ass curmudgeon it makes me want to pull my hair out. I am very much a live and let live kinda guy... i don't really see this world as white, black brown whatever...i don't care if you're a dude and you like other dudes or a girl who likes other girls...i really don't care and have love for everyone. I have always gotten along with the older generation as well but i guess i haven't always spent every day working next to someone with such racist views. It makes me crazy and i kind of want to punch the guy in the fuckin head. Anyhow...quit on fellas and ladies.

'finger point'
No! Do NOT hit old men! I think it may go badly for you. Some one who thinks they are better then everyone else can probably kick any ones ass no matter how old and fragile they are. Instead do this 'Finger' or this 'arse' !!!!! Crazy how closed minded some people are huh? I hate people in general, but at lease I am fair about it. I think its good to have a low tolerance for racism. Just don't get beat up by an old man for it. Cause I would have to fuck with you hard on that one!

Ahhhhhhh shit Jake! You know i could handle myself against the old guy..now anyone else i'd probably bitch out!

i have tried to change my outlook on life during this quit...i feel i have done a pretty good job of staying supportive and mellow about most things...that being said...if you have a problem with me being here, my cave, my story or whatever then please bring to me and not post shit in others' threads.
-
Happy friday quitters! I have my numbers on hand and i'm ready for the weekend! i'll be texting in my promises. Somebody keep an eye on nasty while i'm gone...he needs around the clock observation...

i don't care if you're a dude and you like other dudes or a girl who likes other girls...
What if your a dude that likes girls that like other girls..............

Big boys don't like getting spanked.
Especially when it's for something they got caught doing... Or not, as the case may be.

it is total overkill and obvious as hell, I have never seen so much color on the board stats members online page. They almost out number members... at last count that is approx. 3.75 members assigned to a leadership position.

I'm not doing a hof speech...not yet anyhow...maybe down the line somewhere when the dust has settled and i feel comfortable in my quit...i don't yet...i don't know if i ever will, but i'm here today. One day at a time. Today is just a day quit. I will hope to wake up and do it all again tomorrow. I do have to thank a few, jake, eddie, trauma and bronc...you guys have been instrumental...if it weren't for jake i wouldn't be here. There are some others that helped me when i came back and i thank you guys that did...you know who you are.
Drama on this site is commonplace anymore...i've become accustom to it and i really just want to post and bounce anymore. my promise is just that...a promise that day or today as it is...i told myself that i would stay out of it for the most part when i came back as a retread, and for the most part i have. WCW was a fun little novelty for awhile but i'm pretty much over the drama. I do have a few special people that i have some words for, and i don't mind airing that shit out here...
P23---you told me when i came back that you didn't care about my quit....so really, FUCK YOU and your quit...i don't give a fuck about yours either.
TLS...you're a boy...not a man...you can take your pictures of cans of dip and go jack off to them for all i care.
To you newbs...one day at a time my friends...don't worry about 100, don't worry about the tomorrow...just worry about today. And really, avoid the drama...it will do nothing but hamper your quit and put it in jeopardy. Fuck NAFAR....never is a long ways away...just today.
JAYD41---day 100---peace

Jay, you've been MIA for 5 days now (unless you post roll after this), you've been online but haven't posted roll. I thought you would have learned from your mistakes the first time around, WTF dude, do you seriously still not get it? You've either caved, or you think you're cured and don't need to post roll...Either get with the program or get the fuck out.

If that's the case that's 75% percent of Ktc drama gone. Hoooooooray!

As I suspected. Adios Amiga. You and Jake truly belong together. Hope you guys live happily ever after. Good luck to you and the thousands of people over there who supported you when you came back.
Now log off and gtfo.

Ain't that some shit!
Just went and modified my post in June, can't quit with a man who isn't here. Guess since most of your supporters left to go elsewhere......... To hell with the supporters that didn't fly the coup.
Not that I am a pussy but my feelings are actually hurt at the moment.
Erussell staring past the iPad blankly............ Shaking head.......

If i need to give any further explanation i will...I didn't cave. I simply feel the other site is a little better fit for me. I am not here to bash this site. I don't believe i ever did. There are some of you that are putting words in my mouth. According to srans, I won't be missed much anyhow and 75% of the drama will be gone so there you go. Diesel i don't know why you jumped on this, you never once supported me in any form and that is fine. I never supported you either and I stayed completely away from any drama with you...you brought it to me.
Erussell...yes you did post your support thank you for that. And thanks for the first few days of encouragement this is just something i have to do.
It is very clear by a few, that i am not really wanted here and i never really was. So that is fine. I am quit...that is the point right?

Yes, it is the point. One of the main dudes of the other site and I had a long PM thread going which wasn't always nice, but in the end was "as long as we are quit, who cares". A really good point he made was "your just pissed because you weren't invited" - hmmmmmmm, got me there, a bit butthurt because I wasn't invited to the prom perhaps???
My point is that there will issues like this in the future for the folks that dual post - you're gonna get tired of hitting two websites, thus leaving speculation of caving and such when you drop one of the sites.
People will have hurt feelings, I was majorly pissed when this broke 2 weeks ago, and now I'm meh to it. I choose to post roll on KTC and only KTC, and that's my choice. You want flavor of the week, go for it, stay quit and nice knowing you.

Go back and read your thread. I tried to give you some advice early on, but you fought me on it. You fought a lot of advice early on. Even some from the mighty LooT. Whatever, nor everyone here has to be bff's.
You supposedly leaving and then continuing the drama is disrespectful to to this site. Quit bitching this place up and Fucking leave. Go pound off where you fit in better.

Accountability.
How can I watch you if you don't post roll here?
How do I know that you are watching my back to keep me honest?
Post roll. Be quit. Fuck the rest.

Jayd, I saw you lurking earlier. Please post roll before you post anything else.

He told me he wasn't going to post on the intros anymore, but if he does he will post role.
What a treat that will be for all of us.
