I generally work 6 days a week, which is both a blessing ( keeps me busy and preoccupied) and a curse ( work is my main stressor

You've got the weekend coming up. Not sure if you are off on weekends but hoping you are. LOTS of idle time. Feel it smartly. I remember being on KTC whenever I started remotely thinking about chew or having craves. At night when I couldn't sleep I would take the laptop downstairs and just read. I'd go into older groups, words of wisdom, HOF speeches, just about anything to keep my mind off chew. Chat room works as well. Gut it out dude.

Each and everyday you need to make the conscious decision to not just quit dipping, but more specifically to take back control of my life. I wanted to quit dipping for the last 20+ years. I wanted to take control for 443 days. No better way of keeping accountability than posting roll. You have to decide daily what is tougher your will or your addiction. Good luck

Kill it, man. The exhaustion, achy gums, and just general overall feeling of sheer shittyness will pass, in time. Read up around here as much as possible. When I was in your place, I think I spent every spare moment on KTC just doing nothing more than browsing around, reading about other quitters' struggles, reading funny threads, and mostly time-wasting...but what I wasn't doing was stuffing my lip. This place and its Kool-Aid tastes good to me. Drink up.

BH,
Fight through that shit. One hour at a time. Three days you'll be past the chemical addiction and its all mental from there out. Get through these days. When the nic bitch sneaks up on you, get pissed and put your foot directly in her ass. Seeds, fake stuff, dum dums, whatever you need to keep your pie hole busy while you get past the chemical pull. I dipped Cope snuff for 30 years and Im about to join the HOF. You can do this if I did this. I DOES GET EASIER. I heard all this stuff 94 days ago and thought the HOF was so far away. Nope, its on you before you know it. IF you are determined, the suck sucks less. You found KTC, you introduced yourself and now you're in. These quitters will have your back at all times. You need support, holler. There will be a swarm of bad ass quitters on you to pick you up.

You got this.

Joe

Thanks all! Hour 13 and going strong :)
Great choice and continue being vigilant. Whenever the addiction calls you back stay close to the site and your fellow quitters.
Stay Strong, brother! You got this and we are all right here beside you!

When you get a chance be sure to read as much as you can in the Words of Wisdom section. That really helped me solidify my resolve to quit in the first few days / hours.

Check you PMs for more digits!
Hour 24 is coming up here...

How you doing man? This ain't easy sometimes, but you're gonna do it. You know why? You promised that you would stay quit today to your group and to all of us. Nut up, and let's fucking do this.
Welcome 2 the funny farm.

In the end I Surrender, I and I alone accept that I have and always will have a Nicotene ADDICTION. It is my choice to quit, but I can't do it alone. I get to go down this path one time, I want to do it right. I recognize that my word, my integrety to you is on the line and is only as good as my actions. Caving is not an option in this plan-Eafman 7/11

I am not cured. I will quit one day at a time. I will continue to do what works. Posting roll everyday. To do otherwise would be foolish on my part. You can do this-Ready 12/11

To overcome your addiction you must comprehend what it means to fail-Razd 3/12

Theres a lot of people that come here, especially vets, that WANT to be reminded that they are addicts.-Tarpon 6/12

Just as a building starts with architectural drawings. Your daily quit begins with a promise.-Scowick 2/13

Here and now, focused on today, minute by minute, whatever it takes, I promise to all my bros and myself not to become a negative stat and stay quit!-krok 1/15

I want everyone to be quit. Even the assholes.-Probe1957 1/18

Ignoring history or erasing history fixes nothing and leads you inevitably down the same path.-69franx 04/30/2021

Rock on man! I couldn't have made it this far without my jerky. Everyone's got their own substitute. As long as it's not dip, it'll do the trick.

Looking forward to seeing your name tomorrow. PM me if you ever need anything.
Welcome Center is your find for early tips. Drink plenty of water. Then drink more. Find a suitable oral fix replacement. Read, read, read every corner of this site. Especially the first few days.

Welcome! You will never regret this decision.

"Post roll. Post more if you want to. That's the beauty of the place: We ask you post roll. We ask you to be honest. That's all. No more. No less. Be there for your brothers and ask for help when you need it." - Wastepanel 10/6/14

"What would you do to save your own life? If you were fighting cancer today would you suffer through Chemo, surgeries, try new a therapy? change your diet, go to church? What intolerable hell would you endure to simply live. When you have thought long and hard about that, think on this. Why not apply that attitude to your quit. Suffer through the temporary discomfort of withdrawal to achieve your freedom from a slow painful demise via nicotine. Your in the ring already- fight like you mean it." - Skoal Monster 10/8/14
