Great intro Jeff! I can relate to the ninja thing as well. I always justified it to myself that I wasn't lying because she never outright asked me about it. Next to finding KTC, opening up about my Quit was the best thing I've done. Keep it up man, you're doing this the right way!

day 27....spent the weekend doing activities with my wife. It was so nice not having to worry about how to get a ninja a dip in and just focus on us. She said it was the most fun shes had with me in years which is really sad. Being a slave to the cat shit is so fucked up and im glad to be free today.

f harbaugh....lol glad he is in the b10. ninja dipping is rediculous
day 17 today....quit is going well, cravings seem to be less frequent. We are planning a fly fishing trip for my friends 50th next year and i instantly had anxiety over being around dippers. When you add the fact that there have been recent cavers, i realized that i can never let my guard down....one quit day at a time

Hey Jeff nice name! You've got a good quit going keep it up. I sent you a PM with my number. We have a lot more in common than just the name. I was a ninja dipper, hid it from my wife, first dip was freshman year of college Kodiak Ice, many failed quit attempts before KTC.....I'm 285 days quit today. This method works, buy in and dig your quit hole as deep as you possibly can. The more you are involved the deeper that hole gets.

spent most of today surrounded by dippers.....no crave and no cave....1 small victory in this long battle but ill take it because there will be some tough days ahead
Remember you're never alone as long as that names on roll! We have all been where you are, we understand how tough it is and I applaud you for making note of what may seem so small to some but a victory to you. That's awesome! Quit on my friend!
Tobacco is so addictive it took me a year after a massive heart attack, in which doctor confirmed caused from dipping to finally put a lid on the bitch! ODAAT EDD

Since this is my thread, I am going to add some more to my intro. I took my first Kodiak dip my freshman year of college as a dare. I remember getting dizzy and almost puking but for some reason I had another and before long I headed to the C-store to by my own can. Twenty seven years later, I was still going at it. I stopped a few times but never for more than a month, and would quickly jump back into it if a fishing trip or road trip presented itself. I have pulled the same quit routine as other addicts on this site, I'll quit when I finish college, when I get a job, when I get married, when my child is born, when my second child is born, when my children are out of diapers, but as we know, most of those date are bullshit lies we tell ourselves to make us feel better. This time is different...it took me almost 3 decades to realize that dip was controlling how I lived my life. No more...I quit today...and everyday after that. This site is the only reason I will be successful in this quit.

The good news is that here we quit one day at a time. Tomorrow will take care of itself. You can do it!

so today was a bit of an awakening. We were discussing travel plans at work and the first thought that popped into my nic addicted mind was a road trip can. After the initial romanticizing of the road trip can, I got pissed that this poison has so much control over my thoughts... 'Finger' FU Nic and the can
I agree...and double 'Finger' to the vacation can (or roll)!
Some of my fondest and clearest memories are peeing in places that aren't bathrooms.
