Day 200-

Whew, what a ride. I am so proud of myself for making it this far. I did it.
That being said, I could never have reached this milestone if it weren't for this site and the actual people here(yes, they are real, we are not just screen names.) Too many of you to thank.
I appreciate very much the help and support everyone has given me.

My STD crew, you all can count on me.
Hornets, I'll always ride with you as long as you let me.
KTC, I will continue to stand beside you all EDD!

Those who are lurking and want to quit, get in here! Register today, write an introduction, get in Live Chat, someone will guide you. It'll be the best decision you will ever make.
I'm glad I met you in live chat brother! Congratulations on 200 days! :)

Keep adding folks to your quit circle and you will continue to succeed here. Nicotine has no shot with an army of quitters beating it back. Proud to serve with you in the virtual KTC army! B)B

Congrats on the 2nd floor brother. It has been awesome to quit with you every day
Logged
FLOOR.. 1..2..3..4..5..6..7..8..9..10..11..12...13..14..15..16..17..18..19
It is very simple! We quit for today! We wake up! Do it again tomorrow!! One day at a time!
We walk in each others quit shoes, it may be a little different but ultimately the same exact thing

"Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers."

Hello Quitters-
I have been a slave to Kodiak and Grizzly Wintergreen for the past 23 years. I am an addict.
My story starts at 16, tried dip with some buddiesÂ… I was the only one who didnÂ’t get sick. Of course, I thought I was super cool, and continued to dip off and on throughout high school. At 18, I became a full-time dipper, a can or more a day.
Hiding it from parents, family members, girlfriends, etc. became a part of my life. After a few years, I gave up trying to hide it. Basically proclaiming “This is who I am”, and packed a lip proudly without shame. I did not care about myself or my health, much less what others thought of me.

How F@#KING stupid!!

For the past month, I have finally started to get serious about quitting. I tried to do the gradual cut back. I started a calendar, trying to tell myself how much to consume and when to consume it.
You know what, that sucked, all that time and energy in trying to analyze my quit? Fuck it, why donÂ’t I just fucking do it already and be done?

As I mentioned above, for the past 23 years it has been my life. Honestly, I do not remember how it feels to be nicotine free. Who am I? How do I function? What does it take?
I am excited (but also scared) to learn/ discover the answers.
Hoping this community and all of the amazing folks here can help a brother out on this journey!!

TODAY I QUIT WITH ALL OF YOU
Firstly, let me introduce myself. I'm Jim, an ex-dipper. I see you dipped the same brands I did. That Grizz Wintergreen is really on point, uh? ;o)

I'm glad you killed the can. The others on this board talk about posting roll; I'm sure they have educated you on how to do so by now. The reason why I post roll is to keep the quit going in my mind - that I no longer use nicotine. Could I keep my quit without posting roll, you ask? Probably. Could I cave after posting roll? No way.

I humbly request that you adopt our custom of posting roll first thing in the morning. Since I work evenings, I post roll either right after the roll is posted when I get home from work around 12:15AM or when I wake up the next day. Posting roll may seem silly; I assure you that it is indeed important for maintaining a quit. Normally, I don't get on the computer this time of day during the week, but we got off early at work due to the upcoming three-day weekend.

I hope to see more of you here. I'm not going to dip for the next 24 hours; I invite you to join your quit to mine.
I most certainly will not dip for the next 24 hours Frobozz! I love posting roll, it is the first thing I do each morning! It has worked for me for the last 200 days.

I will quit with you today!! We will do it again tomorrow!
Yes, now I see why we post roll. It's to affirm to each other that we stay strong in our quit.

Viribus Unitis!

PMILS, I'm not sure you realize the inspiration you are here at KTC - even to folks you do not know or know well. Your efforts here have not gone unnoticed and they help to make KTC the great place it is.

Congrats on reaching the 2nd floor!

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