Pab - we were a bit premature with our congratulations. I just got a text from GB321 that he is wasted and just smoked a cigarette. Kid just threw 180 days away. He isn't going to buy a tin, however. He might smoke a cigar once in a while while fishing. And someday he will be back.

Unfuckingbeliveable.

Went fishing for a few hours today with my friend. Landed 4 bass. I had a tiny crave which lasted no more than 10 seconds, seriously. It's amazing that I can say that. Last year if I was fishing, I was dipping. I've realized that fishing without a dip is just as fun as fishing with a dip, if not better. Stay quit my friends -gb321 (121 days)
Great job gb you can have as much fun without dipping and save your life in the mean time!
Nice update Ross. It gets better from here!!!

Props to you for reaching out GB. That's exactly what you're supposed to do and that's the reason why KTC works so well in helping addicts like you and me stay quit. I wish more quitters would reach for out for help the way you did.

Good don't be a stupid ass we all have set backs its what we do when we get the set back that makes us men/women. You can cry or fight with every moral fiber you have....I see a lot of heavy hitters here already you can consider yourself blessed... I told another quitter here I have tried quitting and I have tried chemo I prefer quitting (he left I guess he wants chemo)... you think quitting is tough lemme tell you friend if it wasn't for the grace of God and the thousands of quitters here I would have fallen. Chemo is no fucking joke if dip is about to break your back you might as well opt out of chemo and just let it take you. So think of what you type before you hop on here again and say you had the most enjoyable time ever the summer you chewed because from where I am standing that aint enjoyable....I get to get up each day and see the sun and hear the birds chirp and get to talk to my friends and family that is the most enjoyable and I have not squandered a day since my diagnosis... Everyday I get up and ask the Lord what are you going to teach me today....what are you going to let me see differently today....

SO next time you get to hankering for a chew think do I like shitting my guts out in the middle of the night, do I like having weirdest fucking dreams ever, do I like to be hit with some nerve spark that hits so hard in the sternum that it pops you out of bed only to spasm your back out from your neck to your ass...and your wife has to help you get back into bed. Do I like feeling like there is something hammering my prostate when I get to where I need a bowel movement...do I like running around with a black and maroon murse with chemo drugs in it all weekend do I like trying to work on things around the house with a tube coming out of my chest that is dumping poison into my body....do I like being so tired my eyes just shut and don't open no matter what....do I like hiccups all up until 2 hours before I am to go to work...That there is free school I just provided you.... dip free or chemo you pick!

I'm going to stay quit. I thought I made up my mind to stay quit before you posted that but not I know I'm staying quit. I've seen radiation, and other treatments. I've seen hospice. I've seen a lot of it and after reading that it made me think. I'm happy quit. I guess I just had a really bad crave. It's over now I'm all set. Thanks for the support.

So GB, what did you do with that tin you had ready to go? You got plenty of numbers, including mine, you want to get something off your chest, use them. You are a grown man, so spare us the bullshit excuse that you are young.
Tin is gone. I thought it over I'm staying around here instead of committing suicide with tobacco
Good job. I quit once in my younger days (31 now). Went back at to it at a party with friends.... Look up and 6 years later I was hiding dip from my wife and four girls! Killing my self slowly. 100 days is just a first step in a lifetime of quit. You can NEVER go back. Not even for as quick bum off a buddy at a party. PM me if u need anything!
