I'm going to try this a second time...

[Thumblewort]

Anyone else smell another "try"? How much has the past year long try cost you? Don't expect special treatment here because your young or any other reason.

I'm with Wt57. Try try try. So many tries in 22 years for me. I can smell your weakness from here Mr TryAgainFarFromTheTypicalQuitter.

Even chicks quit better than you do!

If I am not mistaken he has not posted roll the last 2 days... I'll PM him, don't have his number.

Another dry fart in the wind?

yeah he never answered...

It happens, so we move on and try and help the next new quitter!

I'm glad your gonna give it a go, strum. Post roll every damn day. You know how it works, right? This is not your first Intro. And it's not your first time at KTC.

single/?p=2410614t=1010734

Thanks, I didn't know if I post right when I first quit or after my first day of quitting.

And yeah, I didn't last long last time I tried to quit here, and I should've been honest. Live and learn, right? Each time I try to quit I bring new skills, and this time honesty'll be one of them.

There is no try, only quit. Boot the word try out of your vocabulary. Quit like fuck every damn day. Post roll, honor your word, repeat. No more excuses. We are about accountability. Failure is not an option. Welcome back. Now answer the three questions regarding your KTC cave:

What happened?

Why did it happen?

What will you do differently this time?

Post roll. And when the guys come after you, I suggest you be completely honest with them. You'll need to do the same in Feb '14.

It may sound odd or silly, but it's about accountability. It'll make sense in a few weeks. If you stick it out.

Hey, all.

I'm far from the stereotype of the average dipper. I'm in my twenties, just returning to college after a few years of saving money. I've tried to quit a lot of times, I've had more 'last tins' than I can count. I know I can quit, but I've kept the habit a secret from my friends and family so I didn't have many people to rely on after trying to quit. Well, now I have you guys to help and rely on. Just emptied out my spit bottles and threw my cans in the trash.

Not much else to say, aside from it's about damn time I finally stop worrying about every little sore or pain in my mouth, convincing myself that it's going to be cancer.

Strum,
Welcome to the quit world. Its the best place to be but takes daily effort to remain here. These next few days are going to be rough but you will get through them. I stayed up for hours, late at night, by myself in withdrawl, reading everything on this site. It will get you through the tough times and educate you along the way. Read read read. And post roll.
Quit hard,
Grizzfall

How are a bunch of anonymous screen names going to keep you accountable on your introduction page?

Take the time to figure out how to post roll. Check the Welcome Center.

I'm younger than a lot of posters here, and I've been dipping for "only" three or four years.  For the longest time after I started, I would tell myself "nah, you don't have to quit.  Look at that guy!  He dipped fifteen years before he quit, and he didn't get cancer.  Just one more tin.  You'll be fine.  Just one more tin."

Well, as everyone here knows all too well, "just one more" is never just one more.  I kept my nasty habit hidden from my friends and family, throwing away tins and bottles in the night or when there was nobody else around.  I knew I had to quit because last night, even when I had to get up at work by 6 AM, I was sitting up wide awake at one in the morning, because I HAD to get in my last dip of the night.  From today on, I'm not going to let it dictate when I sleep, or when I eat, or when I do anything.

I tried to quit a few times before, and usually made it a week or two on those times, but still wound up going back.  Since I hid the habit from so many people, I didn't have a good support group to keep an eye on me, and after a week or so I'd go "see?  The fog is making you a short-tempered jerk, you're forgetting everything, you may as well go back to dipping."  But this time's going to be different.  I'll have this community to keep me in check.  Thanks to work, I'm already halfway through my first day.  I'll be going through a lot of gum and mints.

Happy quitting, everyone!

You sound like a young..."us".

Nothing you did is abnormal...for this place anyway. We can all relate. Staying up late, sucking on a dip even though we know we should be sleeping was common place for many of us.

I was a ninja as well. Could not end the night without that final dip. I used to find an excuse to go out every night around 11:00pm and drive the same idiot circle driving around town sucking on a turd.

Down Harper to 10 mile, over to Little Mack to Masonic back to Harper to 13 mile where I would pull into Wendy's parking lot, throw away my spitter into their trash can, pop my trunk and hide my tin in the wheel well that held my tire jack.

Like clock work...FOR YEARS.

I can remember thinking most times, "why the fuck am I doing this? It's late, my jaw hurts, my tongue hurts, I'm getting no buzz, and it tastes like shit".

Yet I did the same fucking thing over and over and over and over again.

Why?

Because I'm a nicotine addict, and so are you.

I wasn't doing it because I wanted to. I was doing it because according to my brain, I HAD to. What bullshit.

It took a very scary event to open my eyes and quit. It wasn't until then that I saw dip for the lie that it is.

This place really opened my eyes.

You're smarter than I ever was. You're taking control now and coming here will be one of the best decisions you will ever make.

Stick around. Post roll, read, ask questions...get involved. Quitting this addiction is one of the most rewarding things you can ever imagine. If I told you how great it feels to be free of this addiction, you wouldn't believe me.

I'm never driving that idiot circle again bro.

Welcome to ktc.

Quit on...
