Gotta tell you bad ass quitters there is shit more important than chew, FAMILY - Only thing worse than sitting next to the women you love while shes laid out in an ambulance is doing it two days in a row!

Wife had a very allergic reaction to a steroid she was prescribed. Fell (passed out) and hit her head and suffered a major concussion, which wasn't discovered until after trip two to the hospital. Nicotine can kiss my ass, sitting in the hospital I didn't think of her once. Wife said to me this morning " you quit didn't you?" i asked how she knew cause I never chewed in front of her and the kids, she simple said you never left my side for a chew! Seeing the tears in her eyes as she said that will haunt me for ever. To think she ever thought she came second. Problem is I know how many times i avoided her for a lip full. Nicotine made us do some stupid shit! Day 29 is clear - i made my promise - i'm a man of my word.

i will rinse and repeat in the morning.

Skol again thanks for posting my roll, and to the rest of you thanks for reaching out. Being held accountable is awesome.
Hope your wife is feeling much, much better by the time you see this. Way to stay strong, brother. You are rocking this quit, and those comments you made about what your wife said were truly inspiring. Sometimes we forget that our wives know us, perhaps better then we even know ourselves. Perhaps you should take some of that dip money savings and buy her something nice for Valentine's Day! Proud to quit with you today!

Hang in there daddy, being out of the cage means learning to live free from nicotine. Prayers for your wife. Sounds like she loves you quite a bit. ThatÂ’s something you canÂ’t buy.

Yesterday was the worst day of my quit hands down. I was mere seconds away from ruining 22 days quit. I reached out to skolviking in April and he pulled me off a fucking cliff. He reminded me I was a man, a man that promised not to chew yesterday. We texted back and forth for a bit and after that I remembered all the reasons im quit. KTC and the contacts I have made saved me from disaster.

KTC has laid out a path, my brothers of quit gave me contacts, i used them and Im sitting here on day 23 not 1.

USE YOUR FUCKING CONTACTS!

Im quit all day with all of you!
Sir, that is one helluva win right there ^^^!!! Well Done!

Way to follow the play book, be a man of integrity, use your tools and grind it out!

I am all fired up now! Proud to quit with you today!
Proud to quit with you brotha... reach out anytime!
Hey Lax.. 'oh yeah' that is a huge win.. Congrats. You are getting stronger each day.

BTW.. just love your avatar 'boob' . She attracted me to your post, but reading your entries helps man.

I am 66 days quit. Once you get over the 'Hell Day'. It gets easier.

We are all here to help each other.

Be humble... grow everyday.

I fear I will always be chasing the vortex like a drug. None will be as special as my first hit.

L-D - CONGRATS on hitting 20 days. You are f*cking rocking it man!

Those dip dreams are something else, right?! Here I am at 137 and last night I woke up in a cold sweat thinking I had shoved a cat turd in my lip....and feeling ashamed and down right pissed that I was going to have to come here and tell you all how bad I suck...all over a freaking dream. But I am with you. In the end I feel relieved. Once I am awake these dreams remind me of how f*cking great it is to finally be free from the Nic Bitch. She must know she has no power over me in the real world, so her last trick is to try to invade my dreams. I f*cking hate her more than words can say.

You keep on quitting hard just like you have been. Take it ODAAT. There are going to be some good days and some bad days ahead, but I can't tell you how much better it is for me to be quit. Best damn thing I have done in years, maybe decades. Proud to quit with you today and way to go on 20 days!

Quit on and be excellent!
3 weeks in, now being quit is your new addiction!

Yeah it is, so excited. 21 days isnt alot but when its your number its huge. Proud to be quit today, cant wait to be quit tomorrow. Rinse and repeat. Thank you Al Gore for inventing the internet. Without him I wouldn't hve found KTC! 'clap'

Day 19 - Cant believe its almost three weeks. Funny part is the awake hours are manageable, don't get me wrong the craves are real and intense but they pass faster and come less frequently. The DREAMS are killing me. I've woke up every morning for a week thinking I had to spit out a chew. Ashamed that i have to tell you guys I was weak and failed. Its amazing how mad yet relieved I am ever time I figure out it was a dream. NICOTINE is a whore, desperate for attention, wanting nothing more than to ruin something awesome. 19 days is awesome, 20 will be better. Its so cool knowing everyday is one more day.

Ive quit for 10 days with you guys, 9 on my own. thanks for the support. KTC is doing more for me than the tin ever did. Quit on brothers!

It's all about piling up the wins. Keep the positive mojo going. Being able to navigate situations that involved dip in the past are great confidence boosters to your quit. An old sage on here once told us all something to this effect:

A problem in and of itself is enough, why add another problem to the mix?

A problem plus nicotine = 2 problems
