Don't worry about for life. Just post roll and keep your word one day at a time. Nobody is asking you to quit for life. That is to hard for any of us to comprehend. Besides it gives me a headache. I get headaches easy. You can damn sure make it today though. Quit with you today.

The poison sucks. I hate it. I hated it this morning, I hated it at noon, I hated it at supper and I hate it tonight. I enjoy hating it so much I'm going to wake up tomorrow and start over hating it. I quit with anyone that wants to hate it with me.

I'm glad your making the same choice I did. These guys give great support and I know they have my back. Read as much as possible. I'm just starting out in my quit but haven't been more happy with my decision. All these guys preach ODAAT, shit, sometimes I had to take it one breathe at a time the first few days. Just keep saying no in the now and bitch slap those whispers this evil nic bitch says to you. I quit with you all day long today. You got this. I've been slamming a lot of water and sucking on a lot mints and jolly ranchers.

Diesel,

Welcome to KTC. Your story hits home with me. I'm a 32 year old guy with 2 kids who stopped chewing for 4 years and thought I could be one of those guys that chewed every couple of weeks. I too was wrong. I never actually told my wife I started again. I would do it in front of her when I drank and than hide it during the week, although she actually did know the whole time! Damn women are too smart sometimes!
I truly believe in the KTC method. The main thing to remember that has worked for me is ODAAT=one day at a time. Don't worry about tomorrow, don't worry about 100 days, don't worry about 1 year. Just promise me and everyone in your quit group that you will not chew TODAY! If you can do that everyday it gets easier every day!
I personally feel hitting that early 30's mark there is no more time to fuck around! That's why I quit. No more gambling with my life. I could feel the scales starting to tip in the Nic Bitches favor. It was only a matter of time before I would lose! I sent ya a PM with my contact info! Feel free to reach out anytime you like. I would personally say finding a group of folks to text with will help greatly! I have a group of 8 guys that we text back and forth daily! Sometimes about chew, sometimes not. These guys have hit the HOF and are hitting it over the next few weeks. They all come back and say the text group was a huge tool for them. Just getting a text from a brother in the morning reminded them of why they are quit!
I look forward to watching your journey! I saw you posted roll today! Congrats! You got this man!

Welcome
I would only add that it's not a habit. We are addicts. Thus the one day at a time mantra. You got this. Lots of support here for you. This community has been a HUGE help in my quit. Learn and follow the teachings and you will not fail! Peace.

You have never quit before; rather, just took breaks, but now you know that "you can control it" line is just BS. Read everything here and get the knowledge you need. PM me if you need anything or have questions...

Quitting Again.?.?.?.
« on: February 06, 2014, 11:00:00 PM »
So, I have "quit" dipping at least two dozen times in my life. Started dipping when I was 16 and have dipped almost ever since then (I'm 31 now). At one point, during grad school, I quit for two years and then thought I could control my urges and just dip every couple of weeks. Guess I was wrong, as I have not been able to control the urges since.

Now, I have two beautiful kids and an awesome wife, but I still continue to kill myself with this habit. My dipping drives my wife insane and I have lied to her countless times to protect my secretive dipping. I'm done with the lying and I'm done with killing myself. I want to see my grandkids someday and preferably with my jaw still intact...

I also would like to keep my job that requires me to speak publicly on a regular basis, something tells me that my habit could quickly kill my promising career if I'm not careful.

So, tomorrow will make a full week into my final "quit". Bring it.
