Good to see you on roll Gunnarstaal! You've made an excellent start just keep doing it just like you are.

If you haven't already, get some numbers from others in your quit group and hold each other accountable. That is what this site is about. The more involved you are helping others the stronger your personal quit will be as well.
Unlike quitting products, total adherence to a personal commitment to not violate the law of addiction provides a 100% guarantee of success. Although obedience may not always be easy, the law is clear, concise and simple - no nicotine today, not one puff, dip or chew!

Glad to see you here! You definitely made the right choice. The ktc way works, follow the prescription (WUPP), embrace the suck, drink lots of water and lean on your quit group and you will succeed.

hey guys, 28 years old from Mass. dipping started at 15 as a locker room thing with the hockey team at school, but it quickly took over my life. for the majority of the past 13 years, i have dipped a can a day. i have browsed the site previously, but i'm finally ready to take my life back. flushed my can down the toilet this morning.

looking forward to some support cause although i am ready, this is a pretty terrifying endeavor.

Welcome to the show, brother! This is a great place to get support. I was terrified to quit, now I'm just pissed about it. But I channel all that emotion into saying good bye and good riddance to the thing that kept me a slave for too long. Just make sure you check in to the board as often as possible. Even if just to post roll, read, and remind yourself what your doing and why your doing it.

We all need support in many ways. That is one reason we end up here at KTC. We are a family in many ways and will always help and talk each other down when needed and even more. Welcome to the best quit group!!
FLOOR.. 1..2..3..4..5..6..7..8..9..10..11..12...13..14..15..16..17..18..19

It is very simple! We quit for today! We wake up! Do it again tomorrow!! One day at a time!
We walk in each others quit shoes, it may be a little different but ultimately the same exact thing

"Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers."

You did great! The only way to mess up roll is not to be on it. If you make a mistake someone will fix it.

Hey Gunnar, take some time and read through Kubiackalpha's intro. Here's a link: topic/11548837/1/?x=90#new

Then read through mine: topic/11541810/1/?x=90#new

This will help settle some of the anxiety. And of course, head on over to July and post roll here: topic/11568995/42/?x=90#new

Welcome!

Glad you are scared. Scared will keep you on your toes. However, it doesn't last. Get to posting daily. Starting right now find your group and get to posting your promise daily. The promise is to yourself and you fellow quitters on this site that you will not use today. If posting daily sounds like something you don't want to do then quitting is something you don't want to do. Get some fellow quitters numbers (It means more for your quit to ask for the digits. It shows you want to change). Drink a ton of water and hold on.


Congrats on the decision to quit! It always has to be you! Your decision. Your quit. This introduction is your quit journal as well. Use it to your advantage.
