the community is great and I see how it helps people. I am out though. Don't worry, I won't go back to dipping, but I won't be abused for honesty either. Bye

well I couldn't find where to "post roll call" and I know it's important to you guys, but i've already spent too much time looking for it and need to do some actual work this morning.

I'm still going strong but my resolve is weakening. Also I'm pretty over-the-top irritable. Just trying to make it. I know i can make it. Lots of gum, water, and mints. I went from the worst smelling breath of anyone I knew to the best smelling breath. I guess that's something.

I'm winning so far, but something tells me today will be a real test. One minute at a time...
I see that you found how, and where, to post. Great job! That is your promise to everyone here that you will not use nicotine of ANY KIND today...just for today.

Get some phone numbers, call or text a brother (or sister) if you're starting to struggle. Don't be afraid to ask for help if you need it. Shoot me a PM if I can help. Glad to be quit with you today! 'archer'

There is no "so far". You DECIDE you are done. "So far" implies that it will not last!!! You don't dip today. That's all. You can do this!!! Stay strong!!!!!! Call one of your brothers or ask for a number. They are all here for you!

my wife has been awesome about it actually - she said she won't even smoke around me.
See...you didnt think your wife would be supportive! I am hoping that your quit will inspire her to quit also. She will be watching you very close to see if your quit is for real! Having support means so much to my fiancee so I hope your wife stays supportive! stay strong!!

9 hours in, still going strong. Trying to mix things up a little - went for a walk to the grocery store. no nicotine at all. no excuses. my wife has been awesome about it actually - she said she won't even smoke around me. I figure the hardest part is this first few days, and then it's all mental. Addiction is a tricky mistress, though.

I will post roll tomorrow morning -- when I get to work. I don't usually have time to do any surfing before I leave for work in the morning. these early cravings are UNREAL, but I'm beating it back. I've been sweating since about 1pm. Hyper... freaking OUT. More energy than I thought I had left in me!

This is the attitude you MUST have. I haven't checked the groups yet, but I'm assuming that you've posted your day 1. If not, get into the January group and post up. It all comes down to three very simple things.

1. Post roll first thing every morning and promise that you will not use nicotine of any kind for today...just today.
2. Keep you word.
3. Come back tomorrow morning and do it all over again.

It's a simple program, but it's not easy. There are 9500+ members of KTC who will stand with you during the suck, through the fogs, through the rages, and through the craves. We've all been where you are now...reach out to a brother if you need to and don't be afraid to ask for help. You got this and we've got your back. Glad to be quit with you today! 'archer'
Taz is spot on. That's the stuff that will pull ya through.
Who gives a fuck what your wife thinks. Mine still rolls her eyes and I am 600+ days.

You got it right. We quit for ourselves here. It does not work any other way!!

I see a lot of "I will"s in your statements.

Toss your stuff now, and start now. You did not quit this second when you say "will".

Flush your stuff.
Post roll.
Get through today.

EDIT: I see you've tossed it. Good job, and welcome to the site. Get some fake stuff, seeds, or gum and bear down.

In the end I Surrender, I and I alone accept that I have and always will have a Nicotene ADDICTION. It is my choice to quit, but I can't do it alone. I get to go down this path one time, I want to do it right. I recognize that my word, my integrety to you is on the line and is only as good as my actions. Caving is not an option in this plan-Eafman 7/11

I am not cured. I will quit one day at a time. I will continue to do what works. Posting roll everyday. To do otherwise would be foolish on my part. You can do this-Ready 12/11

To overcome your addiction you must comprehend what it means to fail-Razd 3/12

Theres a lot of people that come here, especially vets, that WANT to be reminded that they are addicts.-Tarpon 6/12

Just as a building starts with architectural drawings. Your daily quit begins with a promise.-Scowick 2/13

Here and now, focused on today, minute by minute, whatever it takes, I promise to all my bros and myself not to become a negative stat and stay quit!-krok 1/15

I want everyone to be quit. Even the assholes.-Probe1957 1/18

I did it. I threw away the open can and put a note on the other that said "I quit this. Merry xmas" and left it on the desk of an absent dipping co-worker.

I went to talk to the boss about something briefly and when I came back to my desk and sat down at my keyboard, my brain INSTANTLY went "time for a dip." I laughed about it. I won't be laughing in an hour when my nicotine levels drop.
