Shit, I miss this guy. Me and Cav have an unorthodox history, but joined in quit for 4 years and a mutual respect that truly evolved over time. This respect is, in my opinion, as strong as my closest quit brethren simply because we had find common ground. We worked for it. Now, I donÂ’t think we have any uncommon ground. So, I miss seeing Cav grace these pages... yet I totally respect his cause. The quit is bigger than him alone and if there is any a man of principal, itÂ’s Cav.

Quote from: CavMan83
Good morning KTC Community and especially my new-found friends in the HOF September 2014 quit group.

This is my second quit....I've been a Copenhagen user for nearly 40 years....

Believe it or not, I actually managed to get the beast off my back and out of my system (or so I thought), in March of 1993 (before FORUMs and Chat Rooms existed, far as I know). Stayed that way for 14, nearly 15 months. Committed the cardinal sin while fishing with a buddy in Logan Martin ("one won't hurt")....bought a can at a convenience store on the way home from the lake and went right back to it like I never ever quit.
Please believe me when I tell you that one WILL hurt....there's no denying that truth, and now it's 2 decades later. I don't even want to know how many dollars I have wasted on a habit I had already "kicked" once. 'bang head'

I delayed my quit for about a week this time; I had done a bit of research on Chantix and if it had any success rates with helping smokeless users quit...decided to try it. Am now on Day 8 of Chantix and Day 1 of Quit #2. So far not unbearable, but as I posted roll this morning, I know I'm going to need to lean on people...I turned into an a #1 ass during the first quit (wife didn't appreciate it too much); don't want to have a repeat of that.

There are also two important dates tied to this quit...today would have been my father's 80th birthday (I still miss him even after six years), and day 100 just happens to be the wife's birthday.

Not looking forward to the next three or four days, but I am looking forward to being quit.

Respectfully,

JDW
I am only closing out day 4 so I am definitely no expert. As for my wife I find the best way not to be nasty is to focus on her and not me. When I am with her everything is about her. This has worked so far. The 2nd thing is I break my days into 3 parts and my only goal is to get through each part and before I know it the day is over and I am sleeping getting ready for the next day. Stay strong.

I hope this is not true but if it is I need to tell you this: I can not thank you enough for all of the support you gave me. You will do what you need to do - I can understand that.

Always proud to quit with you!

There always has been a reason to leave if you want. Cavman you have always been stead fast in rising above the bullshit and be a beacon of support for anyone that is willing to quit daily, I urge you to stay.
There are no circumstances in which using nicotine will improve the outcome.

My journey. The best part it is not over yet.

What a shame.
So many you've helped.
So many that don't even know they're going to quit yet, won't get your support and help....
