  • Interests: Well, there's no acceptable way to say goodbye here. You're either all in, or get out. I'm checking out. I do appreciate having a bunch of quitters to shoot the shit with, to distract each other from difficulty and share encouragement. Those of you who stay and pay it forward are better than I for doing so. I do congratulate all of you for finding the strength to quit and the toughness to stay quit. Stay strong. Stay quit.I just don't feel net positive from the time I spend here, and I don't feel like the KTC system itself has any bearing on my quit. That's not to say it doesn't work if you invest in it, but y'all have known since day one I believe I can do this myself. I've got family and friends I'm accountable to. I've been enjoying every single day of not having to feed an addiction. Even that first week, I loved being able to say no. I'm all in for improving my health and not making stupid choices.I'm going to continue to say no to nicotine for the rest of my life. You do the same. All the best. Ben.P.S. Fuck Marty Barrington.

Oh yeah. It's going to be good to have you around, I can feel that conviction right through the interwebs.

I'm Ben, day 8, same quit month as you. I'm done too. Help me remember, and I'll help you remember.

This is me brother

Here is your quit group that will project you out to JAN2015 for your 100 days (and HOF):

If you stop by my desk I'll show you how to post roll and not look special the first few times since you will most likely be starting off the roll every new day.

Stay quit!

Stick close to your friend. With him 53 days in, he can tell you from recent experience what to expect, and how to handle it.

Way to sack up and save your life. talk to your buddy and learn how to quit. drink the cool aid (not the kind thumble makes) and get in on the quit. great decision. now get ready for the ride of your life, and if you ever think you cant make it remember that we have been there and can help. reach out for help before you break. that's the secret
HOF Date 9/30/2014 in the October Titans group

Follow your buddy's lead and start posting roll immediately. Posting roll call is the cornerstone of KTC and it should be done as early as possible because it's not a status check it's a promise to your Quit Group that you will not touch nicotine all damn day. It's also a great idea to PM other folks and build an offline support network because there will be times when you can't log on to KTC or just need to vent frustrations...which, I'm sorry to say, will be plentiful. Quitting nicotine is one of the hardest things I have ever done and I've not had alcohol in 18 months. You can do this without fail though, just remember your quit brothers and sisters and realize that your quit is strengthening everyone else's. I'm proud to be quit with you.

So yesterday was the hard start and change. I walked into my buddies office, and he overheard me talking about quitting dipping.

He called me over to his desk, and showed me this website. Reached into his desk and pulled out 3 cans of Smokey Mountain Herbal Snuff. Told me that he would be right there with me, and he hadn't dipped in 53 days.

It was an eye opener. So I made a determination and promise to myself to quit. After such a long time of saying "well I'm going to quit when...", I'm done. Today is the start, and I'm ready for all the withdrawls and challenges that come with it.

You didn't post roll today or Monday. What's the deal? That's the number one thing you do every day when you wake up.

Where you at bro? I don't see a roll post for today. Get that done EARLY in your day. Wake up - piss - post roll

Do you work different shifts?
The sleepless will pass. Melatonin can help. The fact that you haven't posted roll is a concern.
