Hey yall my name is kyle,20yrs old from Gilroy, CA my wife introduced me to this site last night and it makes me happy that im not alone in feeling what im feeling and doing what im doing. I cant say ive quit yet but i threw out my last wad and remaining two rolls a little bit ago. i want to quit and i believe i can. so i guess a little about my self. i started dipping in highschool while i was playing football. i remember my first pinch and at the time i probably didnt believe it would come to where im at now... fighting weakness and addiction. but here i am. I have a 7 month old daughter and a beautiful wife. the thought of dieing from somthing so preventible has been killing me lately. to miss my daughter growing up and losing a long, happy, and healthy life with my wife is unbearable to think of.. i love them so much. I know this road isnt easy.. ive tried it before, but i think this time is different because im having thoughts of my own mortality this time around. I WANT TO CHANGE!
Kyle,
Well first of all you stated that you haven't quit yet but you threw out your stash. That to me sounds like a quit statement. Rid yourself of all tobacco, do not go to the patch, nic gum or any such device.
You will see from here we are 100% tobacco and nicotine free all the time. Do not try to quit just nut up and quit.
Your wife seems to understand that you are addicted to tobacco and I hope you do as well. Just quit for you, not her and not the family but YOU. If you fail it is on you, if you quit it is on you. I personally decided that I was done telling my wife and family that my happy addiction was worth more than them.
KTC is a brotherhood, be prepared to be held accountable. When you post roll that you quit you are making a promise to stay nic free for 24 hours. Never ever worry about tomorrow only today.
You should be in the Pre-HOF January 2014 Quit Group. Read how to post roll, then go do it. I wish I had the chance that you do to quit at 20, unfortunately I was already 8 years in and my addict brain was incapable.
I am sending you a PM (Personal Message) on here to your inbox, in the upper right hand corner of your window. Read it, do it and let's QUIT!
