Today I am at Day 28 of my quit. I have not made it alone and I just wanted to say thanks to my friends at KTC for this site. I have a long way to go, but I am strong and have a ton of support.

To anyone who may read this, I was at day one, but now it's already Day 28. I quit, I quit, I'm holding on to my quit. I quit with anyone who reads this. You are not alone and there are plenty of us ready to quit with you.

Quote from: funnylatino
Today has been one of the hardest I have had. It's day 19 and I am still quit. I will remain quit!

Emotions have filled my day. I have cried (like a little kid), ate more than I care to admit and felt uneasy about most everything today.

Tonight I made my first phone call. I called two of the brothers that have been looking out for me, sending me messages and giving me words of encouragement. I made the first call at 7:55pm and did not get off the phone until just after 9pm. To say the least, both of them raised my spirit and I feel a ton better.

I decided to log on and write a little before continuing with my night. I have come to believe the can has controlled me in many more ways than I initially imagined. After thinking about everything over that last 19 days, I have come to a few conclusions. I cannot quit on my own and I must ask for help. If I can beat chew, then there is nothing in my life I cannot change (Thanks brothers). I don't have to worry anymore.

Worrying: Someone once told me, worrying is preparing for something that hasn't happened yet. I have spent way to much time on worrying and not living.

Tomorrow is day 20. Have a good night my brothers and sisters.

There is tragedy in life. That is a fact.

Dipping compounds any tragedy. That is a fact.

Life without nicotine is far better than being a slave to it. That is a fact.

There are tools on this site that if used, will keep you quit. That is a fact.

There are people on this site, that if given the opportunity, will not let you fail. That is a fact.

Most people can't quit for one day let alone 17.

Tell as many people as you can about the site. It works and it can save their life. Just rememeber addicts are not easy to convince.

The most important quit is YOURS !! Protect that at all costs. If you can get others to quit that is great, but do not let their reluctance to quit impact you negatively.

Keep on Quitting

Just joined the site yesterday, but I'm 18 days onto my quit. We have alot in common (1*). Cops can be tough to convince...but you should try. I'm working on one of my brothers right now. Stay strong and let me know if you need a pep talk. I will do the same. Above all else...be safe.

I don't recommend Oregon Mint Snuff. It's fucking wretched. Just saying. The closest thing to skoal or grizzly for me so far is Smokey Mountain Artic Mint. Has just enough flavor with plenty of bite. You can also try prunes. They kinda serve the same spitability as chew.
Stay away from the fakie. Gum, seeds, hard candy, etc.
Just want to say thanks to all of you who have commented on this topic and sent me support emails. I know there are lots of cops out there, trying to quit. I have to focus on me right now and stay quit, but I hope to get to a point where I can reach out to the people I work with and get them to stop also. I am going to spring this site on them during our next briefing.

Thanks again for caring and helping me stay quit. Day 9 today.

Horale!!!!
