I was just thinking about this but in May I will be 5 years quit. I will never forget how difficult and emotional the decision to take my life back was. As a ninja dipper it also made feel like a terrible husband and father for hiding this destruction from the ones who cared most about me and whom depend on my continued health. I will also never forget my pals at KTC and KTC itself for providing the answer that finally worked for me after quitting 6 times a year for years. I just calculated so far my savings are over $12,000. Interestingly that is the least important part of all of this. My decision to fix this was the genesis for other decisions about my health. i have lost weight, increased my exercise and am more focused in my work with the Nic Bitch trying to constantly steal my mind.
I finally realized that like other addicts I am an addict. I came to the conclusion on May 12, 2013 that I will NEVER consume any nicotine again in my life. The divorce is final. No victory cigar, no drinking smoke...NO NICOTINE at all...EVER. Sorry nic bitch but it has to be that way.
I am not a Pius ex-addict either. When folks express their struggle I turn them here, encourage them and tell them they can do it. i also discourage nic reduction therapy because I know that is a scam.
Good luck to all of you newbies and HOF members. Its your life. Live it in freedom and health!

my first post here , im going to quit and need all the help i can get. Today i had two dips. one small and one average and usually dip can a day. I ordered fake dip and poured last of my dip in the trash. Tomorrow will come and im looking for support. thanks in advance for any help
Go start your own intro so you can track your quit. You will need to read the welcome center and understand why we post roll, you can have zero nicotine thereafter. You got this....if you want it bad enough.....

Well I finally figured out how to get in here. I have been a ninja dipper for about 20years. I took my last dip on May 12, 2013. I finished that long deceitful task. I feel unchained. I no longer have to make up some BS reason to go somewhere so I can get a dip in or dread a trip with the family where it wont be possible to dip. I will beat this thing for sure. I appreciate the help this forum can provide; especially on tough days.
RC,

I was a ninja dipper at least I thought until my wife busted me..
I can relate to the trips to "get ice" while on vacation.

This is your thread, I suggest you look for responses to your introduction and also post a few follow ups regarding good bad or indifferent experiences you've had on it.  Also even though you're a newbie you can post on other newb's intros (like I did).  No one told me anything to the contrary.  Welcome!
So true, use your intro to track your quit. Especially the suck! If we remember the suck it will help keep us from considering returning or repeating.

Welcome, you are among (nicotine) quitters. I've come to respect the contributers to this site and actually they are a bunch of overachievers and tech heads. How else could they figure out how to (nearly perfectly) post roll without erasing everyone's posts, how to tell if they bumped someone else, much less fix that, and basically put one foot in front of the other every day free of nicotine and still stand tall?

Welcome aboard and based on your quit date - you are now 14 days quit and you should post your daily promise not to use ANY NICOTINE in May 2013 Pre HOF

Biggest thing to do is get acquainted with this site.

Highly recommend you go here: WELCOME CENTER, Getting acclimated and What to Expect
Welcome RC. I think Cbird meant you should post in August 13 preHOF group. From another ninja dipper it is truly great to just relax and never worry about where you left that can, if you dumped a spitter, if your teeth have flecks of black etc. the freedom doesn't come all at once but it does begin turning around after the suck like you are beginning to experience. Pm me if you need anything.
