Post by: Percymiller on January 16, 2013, 11:21:00 AM
'bang head' this is how I feel right now...
Been chewing 10 years or so...tried to quit many times lately, hasn't worked. So I'm going to try and track my progress here. 3 hours in...can't get it off my mind...

I posted my quit yesterday, percymiller. Right now I'm just sitting back listening to the veteran quitters. One day you and I are going to give advice, too. Make that promise. I already made it to myself. First time I've ever really done that. We can do it.

It's ok man.

We all know how bad this can be.

But, only you can do this for yourself. We can help you.

First of all, we don't try here. We do. We post our promise up every morning not to use nicotine. We do whatever it takes to stay quit. We repeat what made us successful and we learn from those past failures.

There are approximately 90 guys in your group that have or are going through the same shit you are right now in the last 20 days. Learn from them. Ask questions. Make friends.

First off, CLICK HERE (http://forum.killthecan.org/index.php?showforum=13). It will explain what we do here, why we do it, and how we do it. When you have read that, please go HERE (http://forum.killthecan.org/index.php?showtopic=7622) and post your promise.

You are quit. We can help you stay that way.

Listen to the old timers and read up on this site. I just started with you yesterday! Try to keep yourself busy today, that's what I did yesterday and today is a bit less hazy.
Title: Re: Hello...quitting today! For real...
Post by: Percymiller on January 16, 2013, 11:57:00 AM
The haze is here and intense! How can I even possibly want to chew with all this support...amazing forum.

Post by: Percymiller on January 16, 2013, 12:00:00 PM
4 hours in. Craving but the crave to quit is stronger! Work at a grain elevator, many of us chew...lunchtime card playing will be hard with the dippers. I won't cave!

Welcome and congrats! This is coming from a 25 year JUNKIE. I would have shot that shit in my veins if they would let me.

Grind this "Suck" out. I actually liked the suck. I don't want it back but it felt good to kick it's ass.

Pickle seeds and strawberry gum was the trick for me.

We are going through the same shit. You are going to meet some really awesome people here.

The motto is simple...."Hope is for pussies....Real men Quit"

Good luck. If I can quit for today. You can for sure. I'm on day 47 of rocking and kicking the cans ass.

First of all, welcome. Second, you are in the first few hours of your quit. It's awful. But in order to get better, it's going to get worse. We're here for you. Make sure to post roll. You're telling me and everyone else here that you are quit. Get in contact with other members of the 2013 class. PM, call, chat in the chat room. As far as the oral fixation, everyone is a little different. I started with fake, got to where I hated the taste of it and then went to gum and Wintergreen Lifesavers. I've just recently broke myself of the gum habit. But hang in there. When you get to the other side you'll wonder why you even messed with that crap in the first place.

Thanks Guys! Well over 5 hours in. Funny how daily routines seem pointless if I don't have a chew. But I had a fake mint snuff a while ago and it helped calm me down! Overall..."the suck" is a piece of cake! Bring it

1 more day and the shit is physically out of your system. Water, water, water. Excercise (even just walks) does great to get you out and your mind off of the grind. Great job. Keep it up.
Title: Re: Hello...quitting today! For real...
Post by: Percymiller on January 18, 2013, 08:06:00 AM
Thanks...needed a little kick. This morning is a real challenge!

GR8WB speaks truth! water and exercise...both will help out GR8'ly...if you're at work, walking and stairs definitely will help out...don't forget the water.

oh, and water and exercise helps out too...

Yeah I'm at work, spider solitaire seems to keep me busy:)
Was terrified of going to work today because this is where I spend most of the day chewing. Hard to function without dip...but I am quit today!

keep up the nice quit! It will start to get better, just keep with it, give your word, be active - (share some of this stuff right in your quit group, it will help someone who is right where you are and you will get to hear from someone who has just been there - not to say don't post here but be sure to share your experience with your quit brothers!) send me a pm if you need another number - send yours and mine will be sent back.

Since you are MIA, I hope you have Master P stuck in your head as punishment for wasting peoples time.

Come back when you want this. Seems like Nicotine made you say Ughh.

Lol I'm good guys! Still have not chewed since the day I posted. Sorry I kinda disappeared, I don't really have an excuse I guess...just don't feel the need to post roll in order to stay quit. But I will always check the boards from time to time!

"just don't feel the need to post roll in order to stay quit. " Man, if I had a dollar for every caver that thought or posted that statement.

No post, no pledge, no quit.

No special butterflys.

This is a process and a brotherhood. The time that people put into helping you with your quit needs to be given back. Or atleast dignified by some kind of response and accountability. What if I needed help with my quit? Where would you be? You are not very far along in your quit. We are ALL Addicts!!! And we all need each other!! You strengthened my Quit today when I saw you intro had been updated. Thank You! NOw go post roll and make sure you stay quit!

Well thank god Percymiller is one hell of a lot stronger than I am. "This Process  Brotherhood" as jhaenel23 puts it is just what I have needed. I will post, I will promise, I will repeat. I am here for anyone of you. I want all of us to hit 100 and start racing up the floors. But we need to do it one day at a time and it needs to start by "POSTING FUCKING ROLL". KTC is helping me live, so far no one has asked for money all that has been asked of me is to post roll and try helping others. KTC is like any other medicine, you take it everyday. Have a great weekend. Watch the booze, don't be that asshole that gets a dwi going for a can of lip crack. Stay quit my brothers!

The process works. Can some people do it on their own? Sure. But this process is so simple and takes very little time why not do it?

Dude...you got support up the ass from a lot of bad ass quitters. You said so yourself. Now all the sudden you decide to piss on the very foundation the site was built on? You're too good for role now?

You think you have it all figured out now, eh? Don't need to post roll, just check in from time to time or call for help when you're struggling?

This isn't some booty call site where you call us when you're hard up. This is a brotherhood where we all have eachothers backs. How long does it take to post role, about a minute? You can't even repay the guys who supported you when you initially joined by logging on and giving a MINUTE of your time each day?

These guys INVESTED in you. You took their money and ran. And when they get upset about it, you decide to take your ball and go home, like a 5 year old. Bullshit!

Sounds like its gettin too tuff for you and you are looking for and out to cave. Why did you even join the sight? I assume because like all of us you realized you could no do this alone.

Apologize, start posting role again, and come back. You need us. None of us want to see you go back to the can. That is exactly where you will end up if you leave this sight now. Perhaps that's what you want? If so just man up and say so. Don't try and blame it on the very guys who supported you from day one.

Okay - so maybe I was a little harsh last night....but exactly what Diesel said....we have seen way too many come and go and cave....but do what you gotta do
