So I have been a member of KTC for a little while, since March of this year I believe, but this is the very first post I have ever posted. I joined back in March with all intentions of quitting dip once and for all, for the umpteenth time. Only I didn't stay quit, and fell victim of this garbage once again. Now in August my wife and I welcomed our newest and third child into this world and once again the thought "you need to quit before your face is disfigured or worse you die" came rushing back into my head and up to now I just continued to ignore it, out of stupidity or just out of habit that every time my can got empty I went in to pay for gas or a cup of coffee only to find myself saying "give me a can of copenhagen". "Once this can is empty thats it" I would tell myself, yeah right. Well, yesterday morning, I didn't wait for that can to get empty, I threw it away. I have some Jakes mint chew to get me through the oral fixation that I know I will miss.
Heres what I need from you, I think this website will help me through, that all of you will help support me in my quit, but I just can't figure out how to use it LOL. I used to think myself "computer smart" but now I'm one of those "flashing 12:00" people (I am getting old I know). I am not sure if it may have something to do with the fact that I am not using a PC but a Mac, so if any of you have any tips please, I want to use the power of the internet to get support to Kill the Can once and for all.
