Good for you man. I have a daughter that will be 14 this year, and i have thought that same thing every day since she was born. i've quit and started back several times, so sad how it holds onto us. But the good news is that i'm on day 2 and you're on day one. So let's do this!

Hello all,

First of all I want to say that KTC is an incredible resource and I will always respect every member in this community. In 2014 I joined KTC, did roll call, and quit chewing for a little over 100 days! KTC was the only reason I was able to accomplish that feat. Unfortunately, I gave in and started chewing again. I regretted it the moment it happened and have regretted it since.

Flash forward four years...I am now 30 years old, which means I have been chewing almost exactly half of lifetime. I chewed Copenhagen Straight almost all hours of the day and gutted 99% of the time. The reason I am here again is that I know that I am ready to laugh in the face of this addiction and live a long a healthy life.

My daughter was born 4 days ago. Nothing could have prepared for me how life-changing her birth would be. She is all I think about and now the nagging "I really need to quit chewing" is front and center in my brain.

I hope you all will welcome me back into this community. My quit day is TODAY AND FOR FUCKING EVER.

Make this a 5 alarm quit Brother, I'm quit with you.br /br /wolfe
Quit on brother if you need some accountablity just send me a PM just remember everything is done one day at a time.
Quit on man!! Proud to be quit with you today!! Take it one day at a time, you will go through the suck and then it won't.....reach out, get involved, build a network and quit like fuck!!!!
Welcome, You made the right call!
This is what I like to see, you came in here with the right idea and the wrong plan, and these badasses come out of the wood work with some direction, and you fall right in. Awesome. Yeah bud, ill reiterate just a bit. We dont wait till mothers days to quit, we dont only quit on week days, we quit every day, all day long brother. You touched a bit on the culture of dipping as a fire fighter. I work for BNSF Railroad, 3/4 of these people dip or smoke, and sometimes both. Dipping is everywhere, I dipped for 15 years, starting at the ripe age of 14. Im 29 now and I have been quit for 151 days. The feeling is so awesome. You can do this bro, it is very possible and can be trying at times. Dont let that crap run your life. Quit on bro.
I'm in the Aug14 group, and I expect to see your name on the roll tomorrow. I am one of 2 guys in my dept who aren't dipping, smoking, or chewing, so I know what you mean - you can quit despite them though. It's gonna suck for a couple days, so PM me if you need a number.
I was a ninja dipper, but I will have a berserker quit - Here's some encouragement

NEVER Ring the Bell! Watch this. It will change your life.

When a crave hits watch this.

"Everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about. Be Kind Always."

?Gentlemen, we are going to relentlessly chase perfection, knowing full well we will not catch it, because nothing is perfect. But we are going to relentlessly chase it, because in the process we will catch excellence. I am not remotely interested in just being good. ? ~ Vince Lombardi

"We all have our own demons that we face on a day to day basis. Some we can talk to others about. Some that we have to work through on our own. ...the nic bitch continues to knock on the doors my friends. Stay strong, stay vigilant." - Fireheeler; 6/11/14 in AUG14

Never cured, but quitting like this

What cost is too high?

Well. You guys are right. To be clear though I am quitting for me, the mother's day thing was just something that made me realize it needs to happen and there is no better time than now. My job is not justification for chewing at all, on the contrary with the amount of carginogens we are exposed to it is an even better reason to quit chew. Because of the strong urging here and you guys basically calling me out I will quit today. I do not care who thinks I cannot or won't.
Flushy flushy. Rinse down the drain. As soon as that is done, go post roll with August 2014.

Get over to chat if you need to talk to some quitters. Or send me a PM with your number.

Let's pull the plug brother. No more!!
Welcome Medic,

You are in the right spot to get you past these difficult days. Get rid of all of the nic, and come join all of us in the forums. You can find all sorts of interesting shit to occupy your mind, and keep your fingers out of a can.

My first suggestion, go to chat, or post some three/two/one word posts under Wildcard.
