Nice 1 year quit Sam. Thanks for sticking it out here day after day with us

Here in THIS house, we Kill the Can. If it's not a top priority, go to one of the bitch sites where they "hurt the can" or "call the can names." - Pre

This is so much more that just throwing your name on a list, it is placing your word or promise that you will not use nicotine and it should be done everyday. - MCarmo44

I need this place, because i am an addict. I cannot forget that...if i do i will forget how to quit. - Schaef418

It's January 1, 2015, you've been thinking about quitting for a while now and even made a resolution. As the fog from New Year's Eve is clearing the reality of wanting to quit started to set in and you just did a search on "how to quit smokeless tobacco", "how to live without nicotine" or something similar. Same search hundreds of us did 3 months, a year or two years ago. You landed on Kill The Can, you did some reading and clicked on the forums. You are reading around here looking for how to make quitting easy, looking for something that will make this time successful. I was you almost a year ago.

You can quit nicotine. Be clear, you are not quitting snuff, cigarettes or any other delivery system, you are quitting nicotine. There is one proven way to achieve that goal. It's cold turkey. Forget about the patches, the vapors, the e-cigs, gum or any other form of that bullshit. Cold turkey is the most successful method for long-term success. Your success rate increases with a support group, with accountability. KTC provides that and literally hundreds of us have quit one day at a time by making a daily promise (posting roll daily) with our groups. Here you are not quitting for the rest of your life, you are quitting for today. You just take care of today. Your body will clear itself of nicotine in about 72 hours and each day will get better after that. You can do this!

It's simple, flush any nicotine down the toilet, register if you are here as a Guest, find your quit group (your group is the month in which you will hit 100 days quit) and post your day one right now! Tomorrow, repeat. Welcome!

I quit every day with this guy. He's got your back. So do I. Let's go!
