Griffin-
Welcome. The next few days are going to suck. I recommend using this intro to document how you are feeling, what you are going through each day so you'll remember it. Drink lots of water. Drink so much water that you have to piss every time you walk by a bathroom. Arm yourself with seeds, gum, beef jerky (anything but nicotine) and KTC knowledge- read, read and read some more. Post roll early and every damn day. If you do that and are a man of your word you can stay quit. Quit one day at a time. You can do anything for 24 hours right?

Feed your quit like you fed your addiction and you can beat it. No matter what you go through physically or mentally with your quit it pales in comparison to what you'll go through if you have oral cancer.

You'll never regret quitting and staying quit. Own your quit every damn day.

Welcome and congrats on the dump.

Since you have already done a good bit of reading you know how central posting roll daily is to KTC's philosophy... It's that daily promise on roll to not use for the next 24 hrs that binds us all.

Now get over to Dec 2014 and post your day 1 Roll. Link below outlines how to post.
topic/1003072/1/

As far as support goes on this site... Every last damn one of us wants you to quit. You have our support. Hell, you now have my phone number as well. Check your PM's. If your quit is going to shit and the cravings are getting to be too much... give me a call or a text. Now I won't cup your balls while
stroking your hair and singing lullabies to you, but I will listen, offer advice for what helped me, and tell you a few jokes that would make Andrew Dice Clay blush. Unless you prefer a good Lawyer joke.

Welcome to your first day of Freedom. First 3 day suck. Oh Yeah!

Quote from: Griffin
I started this stupid crap 35 years ago. Rode my 12 year old ass to the 7-11 to buy my dad a pack of Camel's and a comic book for me. Somebody had left a can of Skoal Wintergreen on the counter so I stole it on my way out. Shit made me sick but I fought through it and soon found myself buying it on a regular basis. It was cool, spitting on the carpet in Middle School. The girls were impressed, I could tell. OK, they thought it was stupid. But I thought it was cool.

Started College in '85. Had a summer job working asphalt. Chewed all day everyday that summer. Started my Freshman year and didn't have a dip all year. Didn't have any money. First day back on the job-bought a can. This went on for 4 years until I graduated. Went two years without a dip. Started Law School. Bought a can, didn't like it. Bought another, same thing. Went all three years without a dip. Got married, started studying for the Bar Exam and boom, bought a can and haven't stopped for 19 years.

Found this site this morning. Enjoyed reading the posts, tips etc. Lurked around for about 2 hours WITH A FU*ING DIP IN! Thought to myself "that,s not very cool, time to quit." Dumped a perfectly good can down the drain and got back on the site and continued to read inspiring (and terrifying) stories of people fighting the fight. Went out to the can and pulled a half can out of the golf bag-dumped. Found a half can and a full can in my fishing bag. Gone. Need to look through the garage-usually have a can or two stashed somewhere.

Looks like this site is a great resource and I hope to get the support that can help me beat this bastard!
Welcome.
The best place to "get quit" and "be quit".
We do this ODAAT = One day at a time.
This site has the tools and knowledge to fight the nic bitch and WIN!
Stick around and your quit will stick.
There is a chat room...usually some badass in there to help you with anything.
It's always good to see another slave taking back his Freedom.
