Ok...I see there's been some bashing at my expense and that's fine. We're all men on this board.

First, I would like to publicly apologize to Rob. I definitely was not enjoying someone hitting me on the first day of my quit, but mentioning him failing in his quit is no better....and I do not want to thwart what is a great accomplishment on a nightmare task.

I have been dip free while using products today, and have stayed clear of my staff so I don't rip anyone's head off, so I am hesitant to change from something that helped me quit even just today. That said, Evil One has contacted me several times and the fact he would take the time out of his day to convince me this is the way to go holds a lot of weight. Plus, how do you say no to someone that chose that name?

Being a part of a community where guys will rip you might be just what I need. I still have the patch on but am going to give this some serious thought tonight.

Well...this is day 1. I've tried to quit hundreds of times with no success, but have a different feeling about this one.  I'm on a program with my insurance company which provided the patch and gum at no charge which seems to provide me with more of a mandate to quit.

If I had a gun to my head and was forced to state the thing I am best at...it would have to be dipping.  That's not to say I have no good skills, but I'm really good at dipping.  Work, meetings, reading, movies, driving even church if I wanted.  I can dip and no one knows I'm doing it....but I do. I know that I am setting myself up for cancer. I know that I am overweight b/c dip goes oh so well with sweet tea, coffee and beer.

The toughest part of quitting for me is the cycle of behaviors I have to master to succeed in this quit, both positive and negative. Failure anywhere within this cycle will most likely lead to a stop at the local convenience for a date with the bear.....and it will feel so good that first time.

But, if not now when? So I am choosing now. Any insight or support would be greatly appreciated.  I am on my own on this journey and could use some friends going through the same thing I am about to.
Well post in your group and you will never be alone!

Read the intro section and gain as much knowledge as you can. This site is truly bad ass and only bad ass need apply!

Once you post your promise to not use nicotine in any form....keep it!

I know it doesn't sound like much but its the self drive and site accountability that make this the place to get your quit on!
Thanks brother..It does feel good to have a place to go like this!
remember that this is not only a place to kick smokeless tobacco, but we get to the root of the issue and that's the Nic Bitch. She's well, a bitch. She's ruthless, she wants you for herself.Her and her friend "Nitrosamines" have a big party inside your body until one day you end up with cancer. She has deceived you, stolen money, but the biggest one of them all.. she stole your life and you had the opportunity to quit.

So here we go man... you ready to take your life back?

If so.... go here first the Welcome Center

Then go to July Pre-HOF class and post roll. If you don't know how, private message anyone of the people you see posting roll and they will help you. We are all in this together. No one else's quit is better than another. We are all equally recovering!

Oh, in case you don't know what "Nitrosamines" are Google it, you'll never want to put that shit back in your mouth ever again. A lot of things we consume have them, but processed tobacco has an astronomical amount.
I do appreciate that, but I am using the products for this quit. I know many people that have quit using them as well as those that went cold turkey. I do wish you much success.
well, then don't waste anymore of our time. But when you fail, we'll be there in the back of your head and you will realize the patch, gum, suppository or whatever is a crutch. It's nothing more than a different route of delivery and it will not lead to success. What leads to success to quitting cold turkey and having a real and legit support group. Where else can you find thousand of quitters that will bend over backwards to help you? Nowhere... choice is yours. Wish me luck? Shit I wish you luck I know I am quit!
I have no doubt this site works, but if I were a weaker person a trip to get some dip would be happening ASAP. I'm glad this is working for you, and maybe I'll be back and readily admit this is the only way to go. But I think you should be less hostile when dealing with someone attempting to quit. No different than the crap happening in DC right now. Stop being so righteous and just try to help people. I admitted this wasn't for me and wished you the best. Get over yourself.
Weaker person? Dude you're an addict, admit that you can't control it! I'd have to say you're the weak one for using the patch or gum.

Hostile? No, offended that you're still engaging people on site that is proven, yes! We aren't any different than you. 39 days ago I was in your spot, contemplating quitting. So I dove in!

Over myself? I'm the one who has been quit for 39 days, you aren't. So yes, I have the right to say I am stronger than you! PERIOD!

I am not going to debate this with you any longer. I am going to enjoy my daily quit, go talk my new friends and help people who truly want be helped. One day you will figure it out and then you will come back and admit you failed. They see it a lot here.
I am going to sign off as I don't want to be a distraction. But you are an ass. I'm a glad you've quit for 39 days, but guess what I've done that too...cold turkey....and started back. Keep being arrogant and you'll be chain dipping just like the rest of us. Have some humility...realize this is day one of my quit.....say something like, "We are a nicotene free site, so maybe you should come back if the patch doesn't work. but best of luck and congrats on day 1." You're one of those people who talk big online, but probably can't back it up in person....which is why I've never joined a forum before. One day you will not be able to hide behind your "avatar" and will realize that yelling at someone from behind your keyboard is cowardly. You are anything but strong. But I'm glad the keyboard steroids are working for you.
You said enough was enough. Then qlf (quit like fuck). Listen to rob and dwbolt, they know how to quit. Nrt (nicotine replacement theory) does not work, its a way the nick bitch keeps her hold on you.
I am curious to know why he joined in 2007, but then came back 6 years later?
Good job Rob.

Why did he join in 2007 and never quit? You nailed it, he's scared and weak. My math isn't the best, but if he joined in 2007 and posted this swill in 2013, that means he continued to use for 6 more years. He says he is leaving as to not be a distraction. He isn't a distraction, he is strengthening our Quits be reinforcing the importance of staying nic-free (not switching the delivery apparatus) and doing so by posting roll every day; making that pledge to ourselves and other ACTIVE members, and keeping our word for 24 hours.

History says he'll continue to use and will be back in another 6 years, 2019, unless cancer has killed him by then. Who knows. Maybe he'll realize you were being caring and honest, and not just a self-rightous dick. Maybe he will find his balls and come back sooner to do it the KTC way - cold turkey. It would be nice to have another quitter on our side of this war.
I quit with everyone today!!! OH yea, and we are all ASSHOLES! But were QLF ASSHOLES!
Just another special butterfly, that has it so much harder than everyone else. You no what man, we are all addicts on this site. We know how to quit, it is proven in our stats. Why don't you go look up what the statistics are of people getting hooked on the patch? Nicotine is a bitch, she doesn't care who the fuck you are. She just wants you to continue using. So you keep patching it up while she is banging you in the ass, and I will still be here Quit Like Fuck for today with my brothers.

He thinks he knows how to quit, but he doesn't. It's simple, own your quit, post roll, talk with quit buddies, rimse, repeat every day. I have read enough success stories to know that it works and only works when you make your life about quitting and making a daily promise to post roll, even through a simple text.

He talks like he knows how to quit. He talks like he has a clue what is in store for him. Pride issue here.

It's people like this that make my quit stronger! QLF all day long!

You said enough was enough. Then qlf (quit like fuck). Listen to rob and dwbolt, they know how to quit. Nrt (nicotine replacement theory) does not work, its a way the nick bitch keeps her hold on you.
I am curious to know why he joined in 2007, but then came back 6 years later?
Good job Rob.

Why did he join in 2007 and never quit? You nailed it, he's scared and weak. My math isn't the best, but if he joined in 2007 and posted this swill in 2013, that means he continued to use for 6 more years. He says he is leaving as to not be a distraction. He isn't a distraction, he is strengthening our Quits be reinforcing the importance of staying nic-free (not switching the delivery apparatus) and doing so by posting roll every day; making that pledge to ourselves and other ACTIVE members, and keeping our word for 24 hours.

History says he'll continue to use and will be back in another 6 years, 2019, unless cancer has killed him by then. Who knows. Maybe he'll realize you were being caring and honest, and not just a self-rightous dick. Maybe he will find his balls and come back sooner to do it the KTC way - cold turkey. It would be nice to have another quitter on our side of this war.

Well...this is day 1. I've tried to quit hundreds of times with no success, but have a different feeling about this one.  I'm on a program with my insurance company which provided the patch and gum at no charge which seems to provide me with more of a mandate to quit.

If I had a gun to my head and was forced to state the thing I am best at...it would have to be dipping.  That's not to say I have no good skills, but I'm really good at dipping.  Work, meetings, reading, movies, driving even church if I wanted.  I can dip and no one knows I'm doing it....but I do. I know that I am setting myself up for cancer. I know that I am overweight b/c dip goes oh so well with sweet tea, coffee and beer.

The toughest part of quitting for me is the cycle of behaviors I have to master to succeed in this quit, both positive and negative. Failure anywhere within this cycle will most likely lead to a stop at the local convenience for a date with the bear.....and it will feel so good that first time.

But, if not now when? So I am choosing now. Any insight or support would be greatly appreciated.  I am on my own on this journey and could use some friends going through the same thing I am about to.
Well post in your group and you will never be alone!

Read the intro section and gain as much knowledge as you can. This site is truly bad ass and only bad ass need apply!

Once you post your promise to not use nicotine in any form....keep it!

I know it doesn't sound like much but its the self drive and site accountability that make this the place to get your quit on!
Thanks brother..It does feel good to have a place to go like this!
remember that this is not only a place to kick smokeless tobacco, but we get to the root of the issue and that's the Nic Bitch. She's well, a bitch. She's ruthless, she wants you for herself.Her and her friend "Nitrosamines" have a big party inside your body until one day you end up with cancer. She has deceived you, stolen money, but the biggest one of them all.. she stole your life and you had the opportunity to quit.

So here we go man... you ready to take your life back?

If so.... go here first the Welcome Center

Then go to July Pre-HOF class and post roll. If you don't know how, private message anyone of the people you see posting roll and they will help you. We are all in this together. No one else's quit is better than another. We are all equally recovering!

Oh, in case you don't know what "Nitrosamines" are Google it, you'll never want to put that shit back in your mouth ever again. A lot of things we consume have them, but processed tobacco has an astronomical amount.
I do appreciate that, but I am using the products for this quit. I know many people that have quit using them as well as those that went cold turkey. I do wish you much success.
well, then don't waste anymore of our time. But when you fail, we'll be there in the back of your head and you will realize the patch, gum, suppository or whatever is a crutch. It's nothing more than a different route of delivery and it will not lead to success. What leads to success to quitting cold turkey and having a real and legit support group. Where else can you find thousand of quitters that will bend over backwards to help you? Nowhere... choice is yours. Wish me luck? Shit I wish you luck I know I am quit!
I have no doubt this site works, but if I were a weaker person a trip to get some dip would be happening ASAP. I'm glad this is working for you, and maybe I'll be back and readily admit this is the only way to go. But I think you should be less hostile when dealing with someone attempting to quit. No different than the crap happening in DC right now. Stop being so righteous and just try to help people. I admitted this wasn't for me and wished you the best. Get over yourself.
Weaker person? Dude you're an addict, admit that you can't control it! I'd have to say you're the weak one for using the patch or gum.

Hostile? No, offended that you're still engaging people on site that is proven, yes! We aren't any different than you. 39 days ago I was in your spot, contemplating quitting. So I dove in!

Over myself? I'm the one who has been quit for 39 days, you aren't. So yes, I have the right to say I am stronger than you! PERIOD!

I am not going to debate this with you any longer. I am going to enjoy my daily quit, go talk my new friends and help people who truly want be helped. One day you will figure it out and then you will come back and admit you failed. They see it a lot here.
I am going to sign off as I don't want to be a distraction. But you are an ass. I'm a glad you've quit for 39 days, but guess what I've done that too...cold turkey....and started back. Keep being arrogant and you'll be chain dipping just like the rest of us. Have some humility...realize this is day one of my quit.....say something like, "We are a nicotene free site, so maybe you should come back if the patch doesn't work. but best of luck and congrats on day 1." You're one of those people who talk big online, but probably can't back it up in person....which is why I've never joined a forum before. One day you will not be able to hide behind your "avatar" and will realize that yelling at someone from behind your keyboard is cowardly. You are anything but strong. But I'm glad the keyboard steroids are working for you.

'bang head' DW, yea we can have some tough love around here, and I am sorry to see you go. You yourself said you have tried to quit 100's of times, how is this time going to be different? Because you have a patch or gum? Nope,your still an addict and have not quit shit. That's all Rob was trying to explain.

Your entire thread already says you are planning your cave. Good luck with everything, but when you want to get serious come on back and jump in, the water is fine and the kool-aide tastes great.

Ok, but you aren't quit so your argument is invalid. I have humility for those who don't insult those who are quitting for real, aka Cold Turkey. Using a patch or gum is like going into an AA meeting with a six pack or those little mini liqueur bottles, telling everyone you're an addict and them sipping on then saying that is the way to recovery. :blink:

I'm proud to be quit and have the tools to continue to be successful. You'll be back and I'll be here waiting...

I am pretty tame compared to others. Really, I am....

Have yourself a great day... I wish you the best of luck.

She's ruthless, she wants you for herself.Her and her friend "Nitrosamines" have a big party inside your body until one day you end up with cancer. She has deceived you, stolen money, but the biggest one of them all.. she stole your life and you had the opportunity to quit.

So here we go man... you ready to take your life back?

If so.... go here first the Welcome Center

Then go to July Pre-HOF class and post roll. If you don't know how, private message anyone of the people you see posting roll and they will help you. We are all in this together. No one else's quit is better than another. We are all equally recovering!

Oh, in case you don't know what "Nitrosamines" are Google it, you'll never want to put that shit back in your mouth ever again. A lot of things we consume have them, but processed tobacco has an astronomical amount.
I do appreciate that, but I am using the products for this quit. I know many people that have quit using them as well as those that went cold turkey. I do wish you much success.
well, then don't waste anymore of our time. But when you fail, we'll be there in the back of your head and you will realize the patch, gum, suppository or whatever is a crutch. It's nothing more than a different route of delivery and it will not lead to success. What leads to success to quitting cold turkey and having a real and legit support group. Where else can you find thousand of quitters that will bend over backwards to help you? Nowhere... choice is yours. Wish me luck? Shit I wish you luck I know I am quit!
I have no doubt this site works, but if I were a weaker person a trip to get some dip would be happening ASAP. I'm glad this is working for you, and maybe I'll be back and readily admit this is the only way to go. But I think you should be less hostile when dealing with someone attempting to quit. No different than the crap happening in DC right now. Stop being so righteous and just try to help people. I admitted this wasn't for me and wished you the best. Get over yourself.
Weaker person? Dude you're an addict, admit that you can't control it! I'd have to say you're the weak one for using the patch or gum.

Hostile? No, offended that you're still engaging people on site that is proven, yes! We aren't any different than you. 39 days ago I was in your spot, contemplating quitting. So I dove in!

Over myself? I'm the one who has been quit for 39 days, you aren't. So yes, I have the right to say I am stronger than you! PERIOD!

I am not going to debate this with you any longer. I am going to enjoy my daily quit, go talk my new friends and help people who truly want be helped. One day you will figure it out and then you will come back and admit you failed. They see it a lot here.
I am going to sign off as I don't want to be a distraction. But you are an ass. I'm a glad you've quit for 39 days, but guess what I've done that too...cold turkey....and started back. Keep being arrogant and you'll be chain dipping just like the rest of us. Have some humility...realize this is day one of my quit.....say something like, "We are a nicotene free site, so maybe you should come back if the patch doesn't work. but best of luck and congrats on day 1." You're one of those people who talk big online, but probably can't back it up in person....which is why I've never joined a forum before. One day you will not be able to hide behind your "avatar" and will realize that yelling at someone from behind your keyboard is cowardly. You are anything but strong. But I'm glad the keyboard steroids are working for you.
'bang head' DW, yea we can have some tough love around here, and I am sorry to see you go. You yourself said you have tried to quit 100's of times, how is this time going to be different? Because you have a patch or gum? Nope,your still an addict and have not quit shit. That's all Rob was trying to explain.

Your entire thread already says you are planning your cave. Good luck with everything, but when you want to get serious come on back and jump in, the water is fine and the kool-aide tastes great.

Well...this is day 1. I've tried to quit hundreds of times with no success, but have a different feeling about this one.  I'm on a program with my insurance company which provided the patch and gum at no charge which seems to provide me with more of a mandate to quit.

If I had a gun to my head and was forced to state the thing I am best at...it would have to be dipping.  That's not to say I have no good skills, but I'm really good at dipping.  Work, meetings, reading, movies, driving even church if I wanted.  I can dip and no one knows I'm doing it....but I do. I know that I am setting myself up for cancer. I know that I am overweight b/c dip goes oh so well with sweet tea, coffee and beer.

The toughest part of quitting for me is the cycle of behaviors I have to master to succeed in this quit, both positive and negative. Failure anywhere within this cycle will most likely lead to a stop at the local convenience for a date with the bear.....and it will feel so good that first time.

But, if not now when? So I am choosing now. Any insight or support would be greatly appreciated.  I am on my own on this journey and could use some friends going through the same thing I am about to.
Well post in your group and you will never be alone!

Read the intro section and gain as much knowledge as you can. This site is truly bad ass and only bad ass need apply!

Once you post your promise to not use nicotine in any form....keep it!

I know it doesn't sound like much but its the self drive and site accountability that make this the place to get your quit on!
