I posted this in my group but I want to also make this promise to all of KTC...

This weekend I’m going on a vacation to meet up with some of my high school buddies. This will be the toughest test so far for my quit. One of my friends is a dipper, and I did a lot of peer pressure on him when we were younger. He is most likely going to try to get me to have one “for old time’s sake” or “because I’m the guy who got him into it” or some other bull shit reason for me to cave.

I make my promise to you that this will not happen. I will not weaken this group. I will personally post my roll as early as I can and I will stay active in kakao as much as I can.

That being said I have seen how cunning the Nic Bitch is. I have 44 numbers and kakao but could always use more contact options. So if you donÂ’t have my number and want it, PM me your number and youÂ’ll get mine. I will surround myself with quit this weekend and She wonÂ’t win. Who knows, maybe IÂ’ll convince him to quit.
Dude, I'm thoroughly impressed by your conviction to quit and at your age.....wow. I wish I had that kind of motivation in my 20s. Thank you for strengthening my quit today.

hahaha, I had forgotten about this. Thanks. I needed that today.
One thing that I have observed over the past few years is the quit respect given to a quitter by a using addict. No one understands better how hard it is to quit that a user.

You won't have to say a thing. Let your quitting do the talking. When and if he ever want to quit, he may very well seek you for advice. You the man. Proud to quit with you today.

Dip kills. If you're killed, you've lost a very important part of your life.

What I have learned in my first month of quit:


1. If you want to be a quitter you have to be prepared

Being prepared is essential to survival in the quit. Having some fake stuff is not a sign of weakness in my opinion, it is a sign of respect for the wicked ways of the nic bitch but it also shows a level of dedication. You have taken any excuse to bum a dip off a buddy or drive to the store to buy a can off the table. You donÂ’t need one because you have your lifeline in your pocket. It doesnÂ’t matter what fake it is whether itÂ’s just coffee grounds or hooch. When it comes down to it, it could save your life.

2.If you want to be a quitter you have to be active.

Out of everybody that has fallen from my group so far, only a couple I have considered active in the group. We have lost 61 people in our group already and only a couple of them ever got active in the group. If you want to make it, be active. Post roll every day. Post support in other groups, post support in your groups intros, make your intro a journal, get into the live chat, and do whatever it takes to connect to KTC. Because someone you connect with will fall under the next two pieces.

3.If you want to be a quitter you have to find your quit gang.

I tried every way I could to quit the easy way. Patches, gum, I even tried a fucking hypnotist for fuck sake. But the best solution I ever found was my October group. With kakao we have developed some great quit support. Supporting each other makes our quits stronger. I donÂ’t want to let any of them down. ThatÂ’s the first thing that pops into my head when I get a crave because I hurt their quit if I give up on mine. At 31 days the gang has even grown to other groups as well.

4.If you want to be a quitter you have to ask for help.

On day 3 I had a massive panic attack while driving for the first time. I had full body shakes and was an inch from caving. I got on the site and posted in the 911 group. Immediately people rushed to my aid. Cbird got there first. He took about 45 minutes out of his day to help a new guy and a guy he didnÂ’t know. He saved my quit and my life. Many people fade away without asking for help. I do not recommend trying to do the manly exile quit, youÂ’ve tried it before. It didnÂ’t work.
great post here Southpaw, and a realization of what all can happen when someone joins KTC and invests a little time and effort.

well done, keep it up, and I will be there standing 'right' beside you in this journey.
Well said brother! You have discovered some of the principles of KTC quit and made them part of your life. Now you need to keep those tools sharp. QLF with you all day.
Brother, I'm so proud to QUIT with you.

All of these are true, but number 3 has really been on my mind this weekend. I can't even imagine letting you, Lim, VA, Bam, Coach, CDub, Stevo, Snot and the others that helped me in the beginning of my QUIT. Now the guys like Enav, David, Big Worm, hell about 2 dozen active guys on Kakao that I'd be hurting if I failed. It'd be one thing to fail myself, no way I'm failing my Brothers and Sisters.

Thanks for all the work you put into my, and all the Titan's, QUIT.
Southpaw, its great to quit with you. You have shown a lot of leadership and are one of the people I think about when a crave hits. I like my pack hand(Now its just a hand though).
I like my pack hand too!! Not to mention Bam and that whole Diva cup thing................ Bbwuhh, I just bthrew up in my mouth a little.

Proud to quit with you SP!
Southpaw this is a nice post. Great advice for anyone trolling the site wondering if they can or can't quit.

It doesnÂ’t matter what fake it is whether itÂ’s just coffee grounds or hooch. When it comes down to it, it could save your life.

2.If you want to be a quitter you have to be active.

Out of everybody that has fallen from my group so far, only a couple I have considered active in the group. We have lost 61 people in our group already and only a couple of them ever got active in the group. If you want to make it, be active. Post roll every day. Post support in other groups, post support in your groups intros, make your intro a journal, get into the live chat, and do whatever it takes to connect to KTC. Because someone you connect with will fall under the next two pieces.

3.If you want to be a quitter you have to find your quit gang.

I tried every way I could to quit the easy way. Patches, gum, I even tried a fucking hypnotist for fuck sake. But the best solution I ever found was my October group. With kakao we have developed some great quit support. Supporting each other makes our quits stronger. I donÂ’t want to let any of them down. ThatÂ’s the first thing that pops into my head when I get a crave because I hurt their quit if I give up on mine. At 31 days the gang has even grown to other groups as well.

4.If you want to be a quitter you have to ask for help.

On day 3 I had a massive panic attack while driving for the first time. I had full body shakes and was an inch from caving. I got on the site and posted in the 911 group. Immediately people rushed to my aid. Cbird got there first. He took about 45 minutes out of his day to help a new guy and a guy he didnÂ’t know. He saved my quit and my life. Many people fade away without asking for help. I do not recommend trying to do the manly exile quit, youÂ’ve tried it before. It didnÂ’t work.
great post here Southpaw, and a realization of what all can happen when someone joins KTC and invests a little time and effort.

well done, keep it up, and I will be there standing 'right' beside you in this journey.
Well said brother! You have discovered some of the principles of KTC quit and made them part of your life. Now you need to keep those tools sharp. QLF with you all day.
Brother, I'm so proud to QUIT with you.

All of these are true, but number 3 has really been on my mind this weekend. I can't even imagine letting you, Lim, VA, Bam, Coach, CDub, Stevo, Snot and the others that helped me in the beginning of my QUIT. Now the guys like Enav, David, Big Worm, hell about 2 dozen active guys on Kakao that I'd be hurting if I failed. It'd be one thing to fail myself, no way I'm failing my Brothers and Sisters.

Thanks for all the work you put into my, and all the Titan's, QUIT.

What I have learned in my first month of quit:


1. If you want to be a quitter you have to be prepared

Being prepared is essential to survival in the quit. Having some fake stuff is not a sign of weakness in my opinion, it is a sign of respect for the wicked ways of the nic bitch but it also shows a level of dedication. You have taken any excuse to bum a dip off a buddy or drive to the store to buy a can off the table. You donÂ’t need one because you have your lifeline in your pocket. It doesnÂ’t matter what fake it is whether itÂ’s just coffee grounds or hooch. When it comes down to it, it could save your life.
