Welcome to KTC. Read, read and then read more on here. Drink tons of water the next few days- it'll help flush your system of the poison and help with the fog. It's going to suck for a few days but it will be worth it.

Read this when you are ready for additional motivation: topic/1008847/1/#new

Go here to learn how to post roll (#4) and read other important information: forum/55560/

Quit one day at a time. That's how it's done.

You can do this. Quit with you.

Nice intro, I love to hear the stories of other addicts. When I read them, even though we come from different places and different times, we all are very similar. This site is awesome for many reasons, but three are critical. First, every day you post roll and give your word. That's a good thing because your word means everything. Second, it keeps your mind on the addiction. At first this scared me a little because I wanted to escape the addiction, not think about it every day. However, just when you think you are in the clear, the nic bitch will flash you her titties and you need to be prepared to turn her down. Finally, you have people here going through exactly what you are. We quit together.

Hartbkd31,
Congratulations on your decision to quit, your story is similar to mine and other on this site.
First thing is to post roll in your quit group, each and every day! This is your daily promise to quit and is the cornerstone of the site.
Get active on the site, read everything and build a network of accountability. The more you put into the site the more you will get out of it.
Message me for my cell number (weird at first but then when you have 20 KTC numbers and check-in often, not weird)
Charles

Also Live Chat is great

Day 4
« on: October 10, 2014, 05:24:00 PM »
Well for starters. I am a 33 year old father of 5 children. Husband to a saint of wife. I started dipping when I was in 7th grade. 1st dip Skoal Cherry at the old Middle School Dance, never got so fucking sick in my life. This halted my decision on every chewing Skoal Cherry again. Funny how that works, it's the brand not the chew excuse. I've been a dipper ever since. Kodiak to good ole worm dirt Copenhagen. Wake up dip in go to bed maybe I took it out. Fell asleep with a lot of dips in. Anyways I also have 3.5 years of sobriety from Alcohol, I've been able to kick that habit. As then I chose I didn't want my 3 sons (4 now and 1 daughter) to grow up with an alcoholic father. I used the excuse and mind-fucking of myself after that, that I need to have 1 vice, I have the right to chew seeing I don't drink or do drugs anymore. Same lame ass delusions I used when drinking. I've tried to quit dipping many times, always seem to go back realizing now I never had a support group to help me with that. This place hopefully will give me that edge. It came down to this time not my 4 boys, but look at my youngest kid my daughter and wanting to live. Wanting to be able to walk her down the Aisle when I'm sixty. (any early I may have to hurt someone lol). I'm not quitting for her, I'm quitting for me. So that I can enjoy those moments later in life with my grandchildren, my kids, and my wife. And not be hooked up to some machine pumping windex into my veins to kill cancer. See that first hand with my dad at age 53 throat cancer survivor. Mom breast cancer survivor. I don't want to be a esphogeal/stomach cancer victim. I need your guys help through this journey. And am Grateful today that I found KTC. I know how to live One Day At A Time, I hope that I can do it Killing The Can as well.
