Murmur, Welcome to KTC. Like you, I am 43 with a wife and kid and been an addict for 28 years. You nailed it, we have been slaves to the can for way too long. The question I ask myself, is how am I supposed to be the head of this household, a partner to my wife, or a role model for my children, if I allow myself to be a slave to this can or worse yet I am taking a dirt nap because of the cancer. I sense the anger in your intro, and your going to need it to fuel this fight, but the freedom is awesome.

It's time to take your life back, and here we do it one day at a time by posting role, our promise to stay quit. I am proud to quit with you.

Murmur, best decision of your life! I may only be week into my quit but i can tell you that the feelings you get, the crave, which is inevitable, will get better. May not go away ever but it will get easier. This site is so special in many ways. You will get much more support than just me. We are all in this together. Stay strong!

Day One
« on: July 06, 2015, 01:56:00 PM »
Reading these forums, I'm much like everyone else. 44, been dipping Kodiak, can a day, since I was 18. I've got a wife and three little kids. Every time I get sick I'm wondering if today's the day I find out I have throat cancer or some other horrible thing that destroys my family. I'm done. I'm quitting. Opened the can and dumped it out in the toilet. Threw out the Nicorette lozenges I just bought from Costco. I don't want to be a slave anymore....to any of it. Reading this site, reading the stories, the shared struggles. I'm in. Today is day one. I need your help.
