Joequit,

I think I posted in my quit group correctly (after attempting unsuccessfully the first two times). I just think this whole idea of this site is awesome.
So in my quit group, when I do roll call each day, do I just do the same thing I did earlier cut, paste, enter my name and how many days -- or do I write after I do roll call about how my quit is coming a long?

I've never been so amped up about kicking this crap!

Read 1-4 in welcome center.

Learn how to post roll today.
Flush the poison from your body, avoid coffee and alcohol for a couple days and:
Bottom right corner..... Click on “Track Topic” so you can communicate early here in your quit.
Any questions on posting roll just ask anyone! Its basically cutting and pasting and putting in your word that you will not use NICOTINE!

Great to have you here ! This is the toughest part - getting started on your quit and getting going on the beginning of your new life. It will be a new life, trust me. You want have to worry about spitting and hiding your dip from people. You will talk more. You wont have that nic bitch holding you back from doing things.
Did you get in a quit group and post roll yet?
Be strong and be glad you are now on the right track!
If you have to chew, chew the fake stuff....no nic, all herbal:

Hang in there, keep it up.
Permanent reminder of a temporary feeling...

Kremerica,

The can is somewhere in the wood line off a busy highway, I ditched it a couple hours ago.
I'm all in.

I had no idea there were things like this site. I'm excited about the support I see everyone giving to one another.

I'm still trying to figure out how to work my way around this site. But I will find it and definitely post day 1, and so on.

Thanks a lot, I needed this
I am so thankful for this site . KTC will be my life saver, I know it.
WElcome you quitter.

My name is Dan, and I have made the decision to quiet dipping for the second official time. Before this latest blunder, I hadn't had a dip in long time, but I still wanted and craved them. I guess I didn't really quit for that year, I just kept telling myself I had quit. Before that I dipped Grizzly Wintergreen Long Cut, that was my choice of poison, and it became a part of my life at 12 years old. I had an older brother who dipped, and I just wanted to "be cool like the older guys"

Well it wasn't long after I started that I became addicted to it. Fast forward from the age of 12 to the age of 20, and I was going through 2 cans a day, easily.

As I said, I quit for about 1 year... And just last week, I found myself in the all to familiar position.. Standing in race trac, thinking about my job, bills, trying to save up to buy a house, and just about every other little thing that can cause stress...
And... I caved.... I bought a can of Grizzly Wintergreen pouches...
I sure enough dipped them...
Honestly I am ashamed of myself... I've always considered myself such a strong person, but here I am, not even strong enough to let a $3 plastic can control me.

I understand addiction, I was a police officer for 3 years and took plenty of classes on addiction...
But I hate to admit, that I am addicted...

Dip has caused more bad in my life than anything, it has caused issues with my marriage, past jobs, it looks and smells disgusting, is bad for you, and quite frankly is a waste of money...
Dip has controlled me... To the point I hid it from the ones I loved the most, only to be caught, and exposed for what I was doing... Choosing my habit over everyone and everything...

Well, I am tired of letting dip control me, I want to quit and quit for the rest of my life, I want to see someone with a dip in and not have any thought or care about them. I want to stand in race trac paying for gas and not even care that there is a can in the whole place.

I know this is long, but I just need guidance and support, I need to be able to talk to and vent to people who understand first hand what I'm dealing with... I want to win this fight so bad, I'm sick and tired of dip, using it or wanting it...

My quit date is 4/3/2015... Good Friday.
I'm so ready to put this behind me, and move on!

Thanks for reading, sorry so long winded.

Hey Dan,

Welcome. Your going to hear this over the next numerous posts to follow me...... But around here we don't try anything. Trying means chance for failure. Here, we just QUIT one day at a time. If I can give you any advice, take your Tin, walk over to the toilet and flush the contents down the drain.

There is no reason to put off the rest of your life with poison in your system. KTC has mapped out the successful steps needed to quit. If you get to the welcome center and read how to post roll, you should get to the July group and post your day 1 as soon as you flush your tin. From there, you post roll every day first thing and honor your word to your quit brothers. You must be a man of your word and quit one day at a time. I quit with you today, provided you flush that freaking nicotine and join me!
