Let’s give it another try

[chris2alaska]

I have an app on my phone that tracks how much I would've spent on dip & how many cans I would've went through.

If I kept going the way I was, I'd have spent $66 & went through 16 cans of snuff since I quit.

That puts things in a better perspective for me.

Hell yeah dude.I'm just shy of $1600 saved since I quit.

I'm at 3,028 Cans NOT dipped at a savings of $19,955 (That's at a price from over 2 years ago).

That is a new car or a GREAT vacation right there fellas.

Food is tasting better & better each day.

Keep quitting one day at a time and you will be amazed by all the things that get better.

What's up Hill Monk.  Welcome to freedom.  I'd like to make a suggestion that might help with your quit.  I'd change your intro title from "Let's give it another try" to something that ensures you'll be quit forever.  "Let's quit for good".  I like the "Let's" part you have in it.  We are all quitting side by side with you.  This will be your last quit if you decide right now that you are going to quit one day at a time with us. 
PM me for digits.

I’ve been a member here for what, 2 days. The biggest and most important thing I’ve learned is to change the way I talk & think about quitting. No more hope, luck & try for me.

Developing a quitter mindset is so important.  I've seen members here state that posting roll every day makes them think about dipping too much - and then they leave and some of them come back after a cave.  I wake up every morning and the first thought in my head is that I need to be on roll.  I don't think about dipping, I think about quitting.  The best way to quit is to quit every damn day.

I quit with you today.  Stranger999 day 1868.

About ut 30 hours into another attempt at quitting.

In my mid 40’s and have been dipping since my 20’s.

My longest attempt was about 6 months.

The last few weeks has been stressful and I was going through two cans of Skoal straight per day. Was usually about a can a day prior.

Maybe it’ll stick this time.

Welcome @Hill_Monkey .  These guys said it all.  Follow their lead and you will be successful.  I just wanted to welcome you and let you know that I'm often around if you need someone to throw things at.  Hold the line my friend.

you shouldn't ever use that abbreviation ever again, @FISHFLORIDA

And you got this, Hill Monkey!  My parents used to have a monkey at their house, living in the woods in Texas.  Creepy, weird little bugger, no idea how he ever came to be there, but one day he'd just moved on.  You, however, should stick around a while!  ODAAT, get this done!

Day 4 without any snuff. Feeling pretty good now that I'm out just about out of the initial withdraw.

Interesting read @Hill_Monkey . https://www.killthecan.org/change-your-vocabulary/

Quit... or quit not. There is no 'try'.

YOU CAN DO THIS.

Think I posted it right.

Thanks for the motivation fellas.

And I’m no stranger to internet people.

With that attitude nothing will stick. KTC isn't some fairy site on the internet where people come to be magically cured of their nicotine addiction. You can wish in one hand and shit in the other and see which fills up first. Quitting has nothing to do with wishes or luck.

You gotta want this man. You have to come committed and be ready to grind this quit out one day at a time. If you aren't ready to fight this addiction daily, you are wasting your time and the time of everyone here.

So what is it going to be? You going to post a promise early each and every day and honor that word through thick or thin? Or you going to keep wishing you were quit but not putting forth the effort to make it happen? The decision is yours. Depending on what you choose, we are here to help but we can't quit for you.

@Hill_Monkey ,

MNxEngineer speaks the truth.  It takes work to quit.  The first thing you have to do is admit to yourself that you are an addict.  All of us on this site are addicts.  We will be addicts until the day we die.  This site is built on accountability and brotherhood.  Just like it says at the top:  Brotherhood + Accountability = Success.  MNxEngineer is my brother.  I text with him almost everyday.  Both of us post our daily promise on this site every morning to remain quit from nicotine for the next 24 hours.  The process is simple:

1. Wake Up
2. Piss
3. Post your promise to be nicotine free for the day
4. Keep you word
5. Repeat Daily.

It is easy but it is hard.  It is going to suck.  You need to embrace the suck.  One day in the near future, it will not suck so much and you will actually start to enjoy life again, without dip.  As the days rack up, you will feel better and better.  Yes, there will be some shitty days in there as well.  The 200's and especially the 600's for me were particularly crappy.  But I kept posting my promise every damn day and I got through it with the help of my brothers and sisters on this site.

You can do it too, but like MNx said, you have to want it.  You have to want it for yourself.  This is one time when being selfish is the best method.  You can't let others influence your decision.  Make the choice for you and then do what it takes to stay quit. 

I will be your brother too if you want to join us.

Your quit group is the January 2021 Pre-HOF Group.  You can click HERE and it will take you to the group.  Learn how to post roll, and get to know the other new quitters in your group.  I will send you my digits when I see you post your first roll.  Interaction via phone is how we keep everyone accountable.  Yes, it will seem weird at first to talk or text strangers you met on the internet, but you will get over it quickly as you realize these "strangers" actually give a shit about you being quit and truly want to help.

So, now it's up you.  What's it going to be?  Are you going to grab our quit by the balls and join us here, or are you going to keep doing what has obviously not worked so far?

Chris 999 Days quit in a row.
