Quit at 24? Coming from a dude that didn't start until 27-28 I am jealous. Do it right, do it once, and be free. Save all the money for your future!

CanStop...welcome to KTC and I'm so happy you decided to post roll in October last night!

I suggest you read everything you can on this site. There is a lot of quit wisdom to be found - learn from the vets! Also, read everything you can on nicotine addiction. I found that understanding the enemy gave me more strength to slay it. Just google "nicotine addiction" and follow where it leads. I always recommend a read through WildIrish's intro - there is great information there.

Just know that no matter how sucky you might be feeling now - you CAN do this.

PM me if you need anything!

That is awesome you have made the decision to quit. I think you will find this website is a great resource. There is nothing better than seeing something in your life and wanting to change it... doing something about it! That is what you are doing here my friend. Congratulations. Feel free to PM me if you ever want to talk or anything, hell I need your help and support as well!

Nuclear medicine sounds like a very lucrative field to major in!

I've been chewing since I was 17 so around 8 years, half assed a couple quit attempts through the years by trying to taper off, switching to pouches, etc. which clearly didn't work. I'm sick of that shit controlling my life so last Sunday I threw out my last can and went cold turkey. I actually ran across the site while looking up symptoms of quitting (no one's a hypochondriac until their brain tells them they're dying) and the community sounded like a good fit. I quit for myself and myself alone.

A bit about me: My name is Teddy, I'm 24 and I live in Columbia, MO. I worked a few different jobs trying to find my calling (better to make money than to spend it changing majors 400 times) and am finally heading back to school in the fall to study Nuclear Medicine. Aside from quitting my hobbies include reading, camping, watching sports, and trying new restaurants/breweries.
