I'm probably pissin off a mod as I should be taking this to my quit group, but I'm too stupid to find my way even with smokeyg's directions.

I provided links below to make it easier for you to find your group. I'm not pissed.....Yet.

Damn Porter, your story is almost the same as mine.  I roll with the Smokey Mountain Classic.  To change it up a little I dip Kikit a few times a week.  I agree completely, I am weak and withouth this shit I would have caved on day 3 fo sho!  Man it makes me happy to see that you are with us.  These assholes in here will keep you accountable.  The quit group helps.

Wow dude, many months before I quit on my own and came here, this dude who's son I coach kept telling me about Kick-it. Said it was the best tobacco free stuff out there. I musta searched for days looking for that stuff. Never could find it.

Figures, who would have thought "Kik-It"?

Well anyway, 70+ days later, I'm not using any of that fake shit and don't want to start. But just for kicks (pardon the pun) what do you think of it? I always hated the fake shit, but this dude swore by this stuff...

Well kodiak, hat's off for not needing the fake shit. what got you thru the fog and craves??? seeds? gum? eat's? . Anyway, that's cool you didn't need a replacement. I sure as hell did. I am about weaned off the shit, however was and am prepared to use it forever if need be. the bad thing for me is , to everyone else you come in contact with ,it looks just like a pinch of cope. I alway's had a fat upper in. Fact is ,it was one of the reason's I wanted to quit, I am a business owner , and trying to disguise a fatty is futile. I felt embarrased. Ahhhhh that copenhagen smile just screams professional. Some may say who gives a shit what they think about me , but making a good impression for me is the difference between the soup line , or the line at the #1 tee box on saturday mornings. Anyway, as I am new here ,I'm probably pissin off a mod as I should be taking this to my quit group, but I'm too stupid to find my way even with smokeyg's directions.

hey yall, my quit date was march 12 09, I should have joined then. 26 years of copenhagen addiction, quit cold turkey. without this site I would have caved. The steps of expected cravings and emotions was no bullshit. I feel for you new ones beginning your quit. My toughest time was day 3 thru 8. I should have failed. first off , I am 40 , and have had many half ass attempts over the years,anyway I knew I was going to chew myself to death, so made a resolve to quit on my #40 b-day on 8-1-08 , well the day came and I didn't have the nuts to do it. well 8 months later I finally found them. so I mentioned a ways back I should have failed, and thats no shit, day 3 11.00 pm I said fuck it, got in the truck to get a can, and the store just closed, I pressed my face to the window , pleading to the clerk sweeping the floor to let me in, he pointed to the watch on his wrist, and I pointed to my clenched fist , he then made a phone call gesture. I live in a rural area and did not want to drive 10 miles to the next store, plus the exitement of wanting to beat the shit out of that peck in the store relieved some anxiety. Next morning came, same bullshit, but knowing if I made it thru yesterday, I can today. and thats what's keeping me going today. I am nearing 90 day's now nicotine free and damn glad that store was closed, and that clerk might as well have been an angel as far as I am concerned. Good luck.

Welcome brother...you will do it.

[Porter]

LMAO, cograts.

[Smokeyg]

Smokey, thanks for the encouragement. you are back to a can a day !! What the fuck!!. I'll tell ya what, you went a long ass time without that shit, all I can figure is you wasn't ready, or forgot the reasons you wanted to quit. Smokey , you are still the bad ass quitter you once were, and there's no doubt when you quit again it's for good. I know I never want that poison in me ever again.

Ohhh, I forgot to finish the story.

I've been quit for 387 days. Yup yup.

I think Smokey might have forgotten to include the part where he quit again, joined the August-08 quit group, posted roll daily, and is now quit for over a year.

Hey Porter, welcome to the site.

I did the exact same thing you did initially back in '07. I had quit for over 100 days when I first found this site. I posted once and said a lot of the things you said below. I was quitting for myself, this site is great, etc....

My mistake was never joining a quit group. I posted once and never returned to the site. I was a badass quitter going it alone. That didn't last much longer. Around day 200 (I can only guess because I wasn't keeping track any more) I bought a can on a fuck it moment similar to what you described on day 3. I caved thinking I could have just that one. I was only accountable to myself and I had given myself permission.

Back to a can a day.

So, PLEASE head over to the June quit group and introduce yourself there. Post roll and continue doing so. 90 days is impressive, but the support that this site will provide will help you through the rough patches that are sure to lie ahead.

Congratulations on those 90 days. That is huge.

I would like to also add, if it was not for herbal snuff ,I would have failed miserably. to a copenhagen snuff junkie as I was, I tried Bac-off, it was okay, but the smokey mountain classic is the real deal . It saved my ass . If you are just now starting a quit, do yourselves a favor and get some herbal snuff.
