KC Guy, man you are a badass. Complete fucking bad ass. You just gave a promise that is not yours to take back now. You are only quiting a day at a time. Promise one day at a time and keep your fucking word, do not go back on your word. This is going to suck! mine was horrible. Your about to enter the gates of hell. Savor it. Remmember every minute of the pain. It will be usefull later. It gets better. Remember it is a decision that you make, you chose to be a slave, or you chose to be a free bad ass!  Let me know if you need anything. I am proud to quit with you.

Ok guys I was able to sneak away on my lunch break and check in for a minute. I've been clean since 9PM central time May 20th. And...... it's been hard as hell here at work today. I don't usually chew at work and I don't even really think about chewing because in the past I would chew in my car on the way to and from work and during my lunch break. Today I did not chew on the way to work. I will not chew on my lunch break. But I think my body is starting to freak out on me a bit. I thought coming to work would be the easiest because I NEVER chew here. I'll be back posting tonight.

Thank you all for your kind words and messages and advice. I read it all and greatly appreciate it.

Fight her off KC!!!! Stay QUIT!! You got this and I quit with you.

KC,

As you wake up this morning realize this...you started a fight with a ruthless, home invader called nicotine. As you prepare for your day imagine what you would do of you found someone breaking into your home, creeping around looking to kidnap or molest a member of your family? What would you do? Each time you have a crave today, kill that crave with the same intensity you would an intruder in your home. By the way, that's exactly what nicotine wants to do, kill you and harm our family. You have an army of men who are supporting you. Take courage. Rise up. Beat down nicotine.

Good stuff Phil. That poison has stolen to much from us.

Not TODAY!!! Glad to be quit with y'all.

Congrats on a great decision. Make quitting a priority. Remember all the time you made dipping a priority? Yea, you do if you're honest. Put quitting at least that high on the list.
PS- don't forget to flush that secret-emergency-stash-can. And that can with half a pinch of dust that rolled under the dresser two months ago. And the one in the golf bag.......find them all and flush them.

I just posted my first roll call. And I am flushing that last half can down the toilet now. Thanks for the posts. I know tomorrow is going to be a bitch. Actually tomorrow night will be the toughest. I cant chew at work. I may be posting a lot tomorrow night.

That attitude is spot on. Take advantage of everything you can find here. Read the Words of Wisdom and the Hall of Fame speeches . . . all authored by quitters, just like you and me, going through all the same things that you are. They are doing it and you can too. Use the site's chat (in the upper right hand corner - "LIVE CHAT"). That place saved my life more than once. Post in your group . . . more than just roll. Get to know people. PM me if you have any question or need to vent or whatever.

Hi all I have been addicted to chewing for almost 15 years now.  I have quit several times before. My longest time off was a month. The issue I have is I always relapse. I have a difficult time controlling my cravings. Any ideas on ways or things I could do to ease the cravings?  I feel so bad when I relapse that itmakes it hard for me to try to quit.Thanks in advance for any advice.

KC if your serious you are in the right place. Your no different than the rest of us. Many of us rode that wild ride of pausing and then dipping more than ever. If you quit everyday and post your promise early every morning and then keep your word your quit days will start adding up. As a 40 year addict I was skeptical that I could quit but I gave my quit 100% and I still stop by here every day and post my promise after over 400 days. Pm me if you need anything.

You are exactly right. To quit you need to be 100% in on it. You cant half ass it. If you can quit after 40 years I can quit after 15. Thank you for your advice. In fact I am going to spit out my last dip EVER right now.

And then post Roll Call. But learn WHY we post Roll be fore you learn how. Why is far, fqr more important than how.

Welcome to Day 1...

Question for the quitters out here. I just decided to quit like 15 minutes ago. I still have half a can left. Should I throw the can away? Or should I keep it as a reminder to not ever use again? I just told my wife that I am quitting. I think she will help me through this tough process. But back to my question. The obvious answer would be throw it away. But when I can stare that bitch ass canin the face everyday and say NO wont that empower me more to never use?

Dump it in the toilet and flip it off. I dumped four and a half cans. Never again for any reason, not once! Welcome to club freedom!

THROW IT AWAY!!! Your quit has just dropped screaming and naked into this Earth. You need to protect it just like the fragile infant that it is. Eliminate all nicotine from your environment in these early days. You're going to go to hell and back in the coming days. Get rid of the temptation. If you're here for real, step ashore and burn the boats.

You didnt quit a bunch of times...you stopped. The re is a difference between quit and stopped sugar.

Advice? Post roll call daily...be a man of your word. You cannot lie here. Dont even think about it.

When those craves come...throw one finger on each hand up and tell your demons to "Fuck Off". Everytime. Out loud. In the mirror if you question your own resolve. Over time, just like that Pavlov fucker and his mutts, you create a conditioned response. Only instead of slobbering, you become a finely tuned in strument of quit warfare.

You can do this bro. Dont question it....know it. Believe it. Live it....here, with us.
