I am 34 years old and have been chewing Kodiak Wintergreen for over 20 years. I have attempted to stop chewing before and have even made it 2 months, about 7 years ago. I know the struggle that I have ahead and I am committed to making it last this time. I am 6 months sober from alcohol and feel like this is the next progression. I have two sons, one of which is begging me to quit chewing for a New Years Resolution 2015. I lost my father at 16, and every time he asked me to quit I picture them having to live without me like I had to do. I don't want that for them so here goes. Bring on the restlessness, quick trigger, bad attitude, and just all around shock to the system. It's good to know that there are others who are going through the same feelings. Please advise.

Welcome aboard brother. We quit like fuck here. Get your name on roll pronto. Make some friends. I quit with you today.
First of all - welcome. Rest assured you have made a great choice. There is no time like the present for your quit. To do this successfully you need to find your group and post roll (every day - like brushing your teeth). It takes only a minute or two - but it is your commitment to yourself and your group that you promise no nicotine use for that day.

Get involved - find other veterans and rookies and keep in contact with them. We are all here for the same reason - we are addicts and need help sometimes. PM me and I will send you my contact information. Text me at anytime - when you have that rough patch. They will come and you need support to get through them. The first couple of weeks will suck - but each week gets a little better. Before you know it - you will get to 100 days - which is only a start. We have seen many of our guys in our group (July 2014) who thought they were beyond needing KTC - and they have regrettably failed.

This is what you put into it. The more you are active - the more you will have the chance to succeed.

With you for your journey brother! MUPig 248 July 2014

by the way your quit group is March 2015
What happened? You need to post roll daily. Need help? Just ask. Get on roll.

Welcome aboard J. Lots of good reading as you explore the site. KTC is filled with great people that know what you are dealing with, because we are dealing with it too. See you in March 2015 group.

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

Welcome. Your experience will be unique, but much of it will follow a pattern. The blog is a great source of info, for example: http://www.killthecan.org/your-quit/wha ... t-dipping/

Also read various HOF posts, especially for inspiration. Post roll first thing in the morning. On YouTube there are some instruction videos, including how to do it on an iphone.
