This only works if you jump in and post roll. Quitting is scary as fuck, but it can be done. Hundreds of us do it daily here.
Some of my fondest and clearest memories are peeing in places that aren't bathrooms.

Doing the same thing expecting a different result is insanity!

Derek quit being scared! I know you, I am you and I know for a fact you are leaning on the excuse that it will be too hard to quit working in the field! Thats BS! I quit and so did Jughead. He also works in the patch. Dump that shit right now and get over to the March 17 group and post Roll!

What this Bad Ass Quitter ^^^ just said.
Derek if you are serious about quitting the poison, then what you need to do is read the welcome center: http://www.killthecan.org/community/welcome-center/
All the basics that you need to know about to use the KTC quit plan.

Post roll. I think pretty much everyone here has fucked up roll call, but it doesn't matter so long as you promise to not use nicotine for 24 hours and keep your word. You will get the hang of posting if you quit.

Flush all your nicotine so you can't dumpster dive for it latter, post roll, and quit. It will suck bad, but no one is going to pack your lip with poison if you don't...
Get fake dip, seeds, gum, candy, anything nic free that you can stuff your face with to take the edge off.
Drink lots of water, avoid caffeine and alcohol for a while.
Read everything on KTC.
Quitting totally sucks until it doesn't.
You can do this.

Hey y'all, names Derek. I'm from south TX born and raised and I'm 32 years old and drive truck out in the oil fields. Been dipping for a long time and quit a ton of times but it's impossible out here driving truck. It's long hours and it's too easy to keep doing it. I just can't seem to put the Cope down. I think I might be ready to quit this time but I'm afraid to try and fail again. This seems like a good place to be, I did a bunch of reading tonight and y'all seem really hardcore. I'm pretty confused though, and I don't really understand how this website works. I've never been a member on a forum before and this website is really hard to get around, I just can't figure out where I'm going. Is that just how forums are? I hope y'all can help me I just really need to quit this time. I can't afford to fuck around anymore. I don't want to be another dipper for the rest of my life.
Hey Derek. I'm 32 yrs old and an oilfield hand too. Frac Hand specifically. Quit now, this shit is life and death. Like Stranger said focus on your quit we'll worry about the website later. I have a few bones to pick with your verbiage in your intro here.

1. You haven't quit a bunch of times, you've attempted to quit a bunch of times. There is only 1 quit. Wording is very important in your psyche.

2. You think you might be ready? You either are or you aren't there's no half ass shit here. It's too hard if you aren't fully committed. Dump all your cans and quit cold turkey right now.

3. It's impossible to quit out here in the Patch. Fuckin' Addict Excuse. I've been quit 46 days and I've been sitting in a frac van for 12 hours a day the last 10 days surrounded by 4 guys who dip. YOU CAN QUIT DIPPING IN THE PATCH! Nut the Fuck up and Get to Quittin' !!!

I'm here to support you in anyway I can as long as you are ready to quit.

Let's focus on your quit first and figure out the forum later.

You need to dump all of your Cope and go cold turkey this time. You need to focus on staying quit for 24 hours. Certainly you can quit for a day right?

In the forum there is a quit group waiting for you - March 2017. Follow that link and post your name on roll. Your post is your promise that you will not use nicotine for 24 hours.

Welcome and I'm glad that you seem to be seeing the light. :)
