Hey everyone! My names Luke an I decided to quit chewing. I am 22 and have been chewing since I was 13 when my step dad gave me my 1st can. I actually decided to quit on July 8th so I'm a couple days in. I found this site last night when I was having cravings and decided I had nothing to lose by joining. Still not 100% sure how all this works so if some one could help me along the way or guide me to the appropriate hof that'd be appreciated.

Welcome man! If you have not gone throught the WELCOME CENTER (http://forum.killthecan.org/index.php?showforum=13) yet click that link and read all the threads. The basics are:
post roll in your quit group (October 13 - the month you will hit 100 days of freedom) - your roll post is your word that you will not use nicotine in any form.
Honor your word
repeat
This place works if you put in effort and you want to quit. read up then go find your quit group and post roll. Ask any questions here, in your group or shoot a pm to someone by clicking their name then click pm. Again, welcome.

Congrats on a great choice, Cummins!!! Mich pretty much covered it. Post roll, read everything you can on this site...then read it again.
Water, seeds, exercise, jerking-off seem to help most folks early on. I just focused on that last option mainly...still do, too.
YOU CAN DO THIS. Stay strong and stay quit, brother!!!

I'm in the same boat, 24 started real young, dipping two cans a day, but if you buy in, read, participate, and stay close to the site you can be successful! Reach out, meet some people, get some numbers, post roll and honor your word. PM if you need anything!

Thank you everyone for the support. ya this site is going to become my new addiction. i hope it keeps me busy enough to keep it off my mind. but got a question for you guys, anyone else had a constant upset stomach when they quit? ive had one since day one, cant keep any food down or anything. ive only eaten crackers since then. just a weird question wondering if any1 else has had it

Did you try jerking off like Bean suggested? That may help... it always makes me feel better anyway!
-
haha ive been working and playing Call of Duty to keep my mind off it. im sure ill come to that very soon lol
-
Add slap the shit out of your step dad too. That would help

Lucky Bastard. The hardest part for me is that I ate and ate and ate. Never felt my digestion was normal until about 35 days into it. I also gained 20 lbs! My quit came first though and now the weight I gained is coming off.
Welcome to the party. Just know that your body is rewiring and I hope it sucks but you fight. The more deeper in hell you go and then come out, the less desire you will have to cave.
Just live and fight today. Get numbers and support. Don't make any decision while quitting without calling your October brothers to discuss.

When I quit I puked/shit my guts out for two days body aches chills just like a heroin addict I am an addict of nicotine btw. Then the fog came and I was like cant a mother fucker catch a break around here...then I found this place and that was the break I needed. Oh it sucked for me thats why I run the word NAFAR (never again for any reason) through my head daily. I do not want to ever go through that again. The hard hitters straightened out my quit vocabular ricky tick and built me up. Now I never stray far from the site. You can do this embrace the suck.
PM if you need digits mine or anyones its not Ghey or weak its smart.
ps. even in the worst of fogs you can find your dick to follow the quit of Bean.

Hey Luke, I'm Eddie. I am addicted to this site and it has been great. I enjoy it! Btw helping others will help your quit. Get as invested as you possibly can with this site and your HOF group. This will continue to make it harder and harder to open the doors you are closing on nicotine. Enjoy this pain it is your right of passage to reclaiming your freedom. Btw bad ass move by posting roll! I quit with your bad ass today!

I don't want to sound like a pansy but keep finding myself trying to justifÿ having a chew. I am keeping myself busy. I don't wanna give up, and I'm not going to just need to vent somewhere. All my friends chew and don't see the point in me quitting.

Its hard leaving your true love . The one you've snuggled up close to every night. The one you couldn't wait to get up with, spend precious time with. The one that you love more than your wife, kids,family and even self.
All the while, your true love taking anything and everything it can from you. Money, dignity, integrity. Ultimately, tounge, jaw, throat. Possibly your life. Maybe your family would even bury your one true love with you. Put it right in your hand so you can hold it eternity.
Bro, your going to have to take your life back.. The poison is not just going to give it back. Ask yourself,,,, am i worth it. Let me answer for you, because the poison will not let you answer correctly.
Yes!!! Your worth it. Your worth every crave. Your worth every sleepless night. Your worth everything you have to endure during this quit. Screw the poison. Your friends are slaves bro. Your in Control.
Last,, and most importantly.. You made a promise today. Me and 1000's of others expect you to keep that promise. Suck it up. Its worth it!! Quit with you.

Welcome to quit cowboy. Listen the srans, this guys knows what he is talking about. It is not easy to get free from the clutches of nicotine, but it can be done and it is worth it. It is so worth it. Keep that promise today, and then make a promise again in the morning. I will quit right along with you.
If you need anything look me up, my number is free for the asking.

Hey, no one said this was easy, you told me you've tried and failed to quit before - you know this is hard. I should have asked you this in my first reply - Do you WANT to quit? If you do this is the right place. If you're not sure - you don't have a very solid foundation to build a quit on. If you don't - this site and all the members here can not quit for you - we'd love to but you own this - you quit or fail to quit on your own. You can have more support than you ever dreamed of if you make KTC part of your quit though. Besides having 15,000 quitters doing this with you there are a ton of guys here who have been quit for a LONG time. They know things that can help you. Bottom line - quitting takes balls, big fuckin balls. Hope you have em, we do.

One day at a time cowboy. One minute at a time if you have to. Get some numbers to call when the suck gets bad.

Hey brother, I know your pain! Stop thinking about it and stop turning to others for support. If you cant wuit on your own, then you can't quit. What if the internet went down tomorrow and you could never again log in to kill the can? What would happen to all of these people who rely on others to quit through daily rolls?
Here is a copy of a message I wrote to another quitter. Take it as my opinion.
Hey, its your brother Lucius here,
Ignore those faggots who doubt you for failing to post roll. You don't need that shit. Tobacco cans come in rolls, and those bitches love it.
As for you, TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR LIFE!!!!
Believe me, brother to brother, I know the temptation. I quit over a month ago after ten years of dipping daily. That beautiful round tin, the raised letters on the metal, that sweet aroma. FUCK THAT SHIT. Its called cancer!!!! Its called DEATH!
Brother, I dont care if you never post roll again, I WILL NOT JUDGE YOU. The fact is, if you never put a dip in your lip, you have won. Posting roll is just one method. Some of us actually have shit to do, so we dont have time for sucking up to each other.
Brother, whatever category you may fall into, remember this. Each time you place that dip in your lip, your mind starts to tick. you feel that burn, you wonder "is it a tumor forming?" You buy that can and you ask "Is it cancer, or a rash?" You kiss your girlfriend and you think, "Will she taste my bloody gums?"
The answer is YES.
Tobacco kills. Congrats on tobacco alts. Everyone has different preferences, but I have found that Smokey Mountain wintergreen is great for me (if you dip wintergreen.) You can find it at many Wal-Marts.
If you did in fact relapse, its cool. Don't kill yourself over it (the tobacco is doing it for you), instead say "Lucius was a pussy. He sucked a leaf for ten years like a slave bitch, but then he broke free. So can I."
I am here with you my dear friend. I want you to survive. If you keep buying dip you WILL die. Its SOOOOOOO hard to quit, but YOU'VE GOT WHAT IT TAKES.
Its not posting roll. Its not chatting with quitters. Its keeping your bottom lip empty of tobacco no matter what. Fill it with herbal chews, altoids, gum or whatever, but don't let that tobacco in.
GOOD LUCK!!!!

LD is a troll. Ignore this post. Look back in the future and laugh!

Don't let Adiqq's judgement determine your belief. Look at what I wrote, and look at my own example, and decide for yourself whether or not my words hold uncommon wisdom. Trolls live under bridges. This site isnt about trolls. Its about quitting tobacco. Judge me by my fruits. I will judge you by yours.

Not uncommon. Way to stay calm and work through.
Don't listen to that Lucius guy either. "Stop thinking about it" is waaaaaay easier said than done and by all means turn to us for support if you need it. I assume that's why you came here to begin with. Quitting on your own is tough, sure its not IMPOSSIBLE, but doing it with a group is much easier, especially in the beginning. I'm sure as you progress you will need to lean on us less and less and may even find yourself offering your shoulder to new guys. Also I don't think the Internet thing is just gonna disappear tomorrow, so I wouldn't stress too much over that either.
Jesus Christ, that was some of the worst advice ive ever read on this site.

Per our texts,,, I got a sense you are really taking this quit seriously. Very pleased and sense you really want this.
You mentioned you had friends that dipped. I also have friends that dip and I work with several friends i.e. working associates.
I'll say it just like you already know it. It's hard!! My worst times early in my quit were when I was around my friends and others that dipped. I can smell it and see it a mile away. If the wind is pointed in the right direction I can smell it maybe 2 or 3 miles away. We defeat our triggers by dealing with them one at a time. It gets easier and easier every time you come in contact with SLAVES TO THE POISON.
I had a friend the other day get to close and I about gagged. I can't believe how much I loved that smell. It smells like a skunk fart! 'crackup' I can't stand the smell of it anymore. You won't be able to stand it either.
No this,,, One day,, not to far from now your quit will strengthen. Your friends will be watching. They will see that it's possible to quit their disgusting sickening addiction. This is also another form of accountability. Your quit is very important to them. Your quit can one day save their lives. This is another reason caving is not an option. A cave is detrimental to not just yourself but everyone that you can help. ODAAT AND NAFAR. Quit with you.
