38 days today and my first real near miss. Got all the way to opening the can and the smell of it was so putrid I wanted to vomit. I cant believe I lived over 20 years smelling like that crap. How could anyone stand to be near me? I had to go apologize to my wife for her having to smell me like that for all these years, I don't know how she could stand to be near me. While I am pissed I had a near miss, it has strengthened my quit and my resolve so much. I am never going to smell like that again.

[Talonad]

Welcome. Hope you stay quit and help others along the way.

Why joined day in September and quit in March?

Quite frankly, I hadn't found the balls to quit yet, always planning, saying I was going to slow down first, wean myself of, etc etc etc, same old bullshit addiction talk, until I finally said enough is enough and here I am.

You will be glad that you finally made one of the best decisions of your life Talon. You took a different path than most, but that was probably the nic bitch twisting your addict mind. Congratulations on finally quitting with KTC. It took me forever to start quitting - other than many short-lived and fruitless stoppages on my own. Keep posting roll every day, making that promise each morning. It will suck for a while, and the fog was frustration for me in trying to work and think efficiently, but it gets so much better in so many ways.

Quit with you EDD.

I am glad every day to have the bitch out of my system. I knew it was all bullshit when I was looking for the site before, but she had her hooks in deep, telling me how scary lie was gonna be without her, I'd been dipping since I was 12, I had no idea how to live my life nicotine free. Blah blah blah, I wish I had just quit then, but oh well, I am here now and quit for good EDDODAAT!

Day 12, The first few days I slept all the time, now I have a hell of a time falling asleep. No problem sleeping when I get there, but like every time I start to fall asleep my body jerks awake like I am choking. weirdest damn feeling, and disorienting as hell. Today is day 12 for me and I can honestly say I don't even remember what a "real" fatty tasted or felt like anymore, the fake does just fine for me. My oral fixation has always been about more than dipping though, even when I would wouldn't have a dip in I would still try and have something else in my mouth. seeds, gum, candies, food, toothpicks, etc. just anything. With the smoky mountain I pop it in whenever I start getting that twitch, and I am good to go. The fog comes and goes, or maybe a better way to say, it gets lighter and heavier. Still don't feel like ive come fully out of it. sometimes I feel like it gets so heavy I cant even function, have to sit down for a few minutes, but that usually only lasts a short while. But it gets a little better every day, and I feel more and more proud of myself every day. This is the longest I have been without nicotine since 1998, and I feel like a whole new man. I feel like I am re-learning and re-creating myself every single day. Cheers fellas, for the first time in my life, I feel like I have a life to go out and live!

Life is so real and meaningful without dip! Seems like the sun shines brighter and the grass is greener that's the way I see it. Let's do this and enjoy every second we can nic free! Proud to be quit with you today my friend!

Today is Day 7 of my quit. A lot of people find the weekends threatening, but I work in the restaurant business so its just another day to me. Fog has been worse the last couple of days, but kinda just coming and going throughout the day, working out definitely helps a lot, been going beast mode at the gym. Have now slowed way back on the seeds and fake, been using jolly ranchers when at work, they also tend to make me everyone's best friend. The fog sucks when it hits still, but the moments of clarity are so much infinitely better, like I can feel happiness and love with so much more intensity than I ever could before. One thing I know for certain, I never want to relive this first week again! QLFEDD

Thanks for the support guys. Went to the gym today and had one of the best feeling work-outs ever, and I won a free t-shirt. Seems like ever since I decided to quit, good things have started happening to me randomly. I am proud to be QLF beside and with every single one of you guys! I found that the seeds have actually been working better for me than the hooch. i still use the hooch when i would normally have a dip in but not have a spitter (ie shower, working in the garden, etc.) for the rest of the time i just use seeds and have constructed a new special "quitter spitter" for myself out of a sawed off 2-liter bottle (patent pending assholes, dont none of yall be stealing my designs)

Hey, whatever it takes to get through each day right now nic free. That's what matters. Keep fighting the good fight, bro, you're winning and getting stronger each day.
