You know what, there's alot of people who wannaquit but very few succeed looks like you're gonna fit in the Iwannas, instead of the iwill! 35 years later you still have no balls!
Tobacco is so addictive it took me a year after a massive heart attack, in which doctor confirmed caused from dipping to finally put a lid on the bitch! ODAAT EDD

Having your intro titled "Tomorrow" pretty much says it all...

I see you joined back in 2012, so you have been thinking about it for 3 years. I thought about it for a few years too.........and continued to kill myself. I also joined this site with a nic patch on, and was quickly told to rip off the band-aid.......that took me 30 days to find my sack and do that.

My point is, I was scared to quit. But the only way to quit is to just do it, no gum, no weening, no patches, just white knuckle quit, one second at a time if need be.

i hope you show up today.

Where you at bro? Did tomorrow come and go? It's easy to "plan" your quit. This is only as hard as you allow it. I've found that our attitude dictates a lot. Dive into KTC with a positive attitude towards regaining your freedom and ditch the glorification of a cancerous weed. Take back your pride and integrity. It isn't easy to quit but it is simple. Promise to stay Nic free today by posting roll and then honor your word. Push through the craves and it will get easier day by day. Only way to freedom is through the fog. How much do you want to quit? Enough to be a man and stand on your word? That's all it takes. Get in here and post with us. No one ever regretted quitting. Many have regretted planning for tomorrow.

Today is the day!

Good morning sir. Now, I'm going to ask you first to step back for a minute and pretend that you are at an AA meeting. Can you envision a conversation of "throw out the vodka, and switch to beer. It will help you taper off?" Or a substance abuse counselor advising a heroin addict to just cut back a little, or maybe switch to cocaine?

Patches, lozenges, gum, e cigs.... Man they are all little tools in the toolbox of big tobacco deigned to keep you as a consumer. I have a kid at work who eats losenges like a man possessed. Then he smokes about 1/2 a pack a day. "I can quit whenever I want." Uh... Yeah.

983 days ago I came to Ktc. I was scared. I was a 25 year Kodiak can a day user. I tried to quit hundreds... Fuck probably thousands of times. I posted some pathetic intro about how I was really gonna miss my good friend Kodiak and how I had a lot of good time with it. And BOOM I got slapped down... I was schooled quickly. And I listened.

I hope you do too. Quitting at first sucks candoit's balls. At first it seems hopeless. But here there is hope. We've all been there... Done that. And we all survived. And then, weirdly, these benefits that we never anticipated became clear... Food tastes better. We aren't ashamed and hide. We don't have to make up excuses to run to the store. We save thousands of after tax dollars. I could go on and on...

But the process won't start until you set ALL nicotine in the dumpster and you MAN UP and quit. Join us. Listen to us. Suck on candoits balls (ok you don't really have to do that) but get in here and quit! Yell at us. Cry and cuss at us. Dude whatever you gotta do... I swear to God, I was every bit the junkie you are. 983 days ago I actually remember tears running down my face. Never again my friend. Thanks to this place.

Ball is in your court. Carpe diem

I need a shovel for the load of special addicts we have today. I don't know if the wind shifted and Tucos Massholeness blew south, but fn'a.

Here's your trophy for showing up. :jan13trophy:

Either quit now or you will quit tomorrow for the next 5 years.
I agree. By the way, you haven't quit three times, you've stopped killing yourself for a while and now you're back at it. No time like the present to toss that shit and get to quitting.

I also agree with King in that you need to do this for you. I have kids too and if you find my intro and read it you'll see that I decided I was going to quit for them too. I quickly realized that if I wasn't going to do this for me, anything could be a reason for little ol' addict Luke to figure out a way to justify nic one more time.

I've seen many people come here and stop because they got married, had a kid, got a new job, etc. well guess what... divorces happen, people die, jobs come and go.

You are an addict! I am an addict! If we give our addiction an opportunity it will find a way to feed itself. It only takes one fuck up to turn a quit into a stop. Get your head right or this will be the forth time you have stopped. Toss anything with nicotine and post roll, I will quit with you. Hundreds of addicts are waiting to be quit with you today.

Look I'm gonna fly straight with you, grab your damn nuts, man up , quit whining about how you gonna miss your poor little friend nic and get this shit done now! Hell I dipped 38 year's and oh I'm gonna miss my grizzly so bad, but I can't go fishing without it, mow the yard, go hunting hell my anxiety so bad I just don't think I can make it! It's all bullshit addict talk! If you're a man you can do this, I'm I gonna say it's easy,hell no,but nothing this important is! I hope I pissed you off enough to get you posted up. Show me you're a real man poor that shit out now get rid of the spitters all the paraphernalia and post roll now,to hell with waiting, I think 35 years is enough!
I'm an oldie like Pab. You have never quit till now. Stops do not equal quits. Man up. Post roll EVERYDAY. COLD TURKEY is the only way. I dipped 26 years, finally quit 649 days ago with all these badass brothers of mine. If my weak ass could do it, you can too!

I see you bought nicotine gum, if you are going to quit and post roll here you need to get rid of that stuff too. You won't be quit with it, you'll still be giving yourself the nic. it is craving and probably make the whole situation worse. I think you need to just take your can(s) and dump them, no better time to quit than right now. You will have all the support you need here if you want it.

There are no circumstances in which using nicotine will improve the outcome.

Quote from: wannaquit
So after 35 years of having nicotine run through my system I've set my quit date for tomorrow 9/2/15. This will be the 3rd time that I've quit and really wanted to quit. I've parted ways with other vices - drinking (was not easy) and other mood altering substances but just the thought of quitting Copenhagen brings me anxiety. Like others here I've thought about quitting too many times to count for many reasons - cancer, receding gums, "Copenhagen Smiles", very expensive....
The main reason though is my 2 sons, both are now old enough to know what it can do and have been asking me to quit for a couple of years. My youngest was very upset the other night because I have not quit yet. I asked him why he was so upset and he started crying saying "I don't want you to die"! That hit me hard so I decided I need to finally make the decision and quit. There are so many reasons for me to quit and I cannot think of 1 reason not to except that it will be extremely unpleasant for a couple of weeks and I know that I need all of the support that I can get so I'll start posting and reading here (I joined 3 years ago - that was the last time I gave serious thought to quitting but I never posted anything)
I have bought nicotine gum, sunflower seeds and hard candy and will be praying quite a bit. I've also given a heads up to my wife and sons that I'll be a bit on the moody side for a bit.
I hope to be at a point where I can post advice on how I did it - in the meantime I'll be reading all of yours.
To the person who put this site up - Thanks!
To all those in the middle of withdraw - Hang in there!
To those who have been able to kick the habit and encourage the rest of us - Thanks!

John
John I'm glad you wannaquit (get it??). Seriously though, this is going to take some fortitude to accomplish this task. Expense, kids, cancer, etc. are good motivators to stay quit, but ultimately this will come down to how badly you want to stay quit for YOU. For me, it was the idea of spending my whole day planning out how many dips I could squeeze into it. That dependence and slavery to a can of poison is ridiculous. The shame and humiliation you feel to your kids should fuel the quit, but you can't quit for them or you will resent them when the going gets tough.

This journey is hard, but not impossible. It may just save your life.

There is no better day than today to quit, but if you insist on waiting until tomorrow, then get in here first thing in the morning and post your promise in your December quit group. We've all had hundreds of tomorrows, hundreds of false starts to getting this done, but we've all come up short each time. That's what makes this place great. Follow the plan, and you can't fail.

"Not thinking about nicotine is for people who've never used nicotine. We threw that option away with the first dip or drag on a cigarette. We are addicts, and cannot become un-addicted." - wildirish317
