Apparently I can't do the roll call yet because as of right now I'm still possibly using the gum.
Hello sir. Thank you for your service to this great country.

I need you to stop for a minute and think through something.... As a cop I'm sure you've dealt with some bad drunks. When they dry out, does the treatment center say "hey drunk, drop the vodka and start drinking beer - it will make you quit!" Do heroin addicts switch to cocsine to quit? OxyContin to Xanax?

This all sounds fucking crazy doesn't it? You know why? Because tobacco companies are driving the patch/lozenge/e cig biz. Substituting flat out does not work. I'm on day 901 following the Ktc plan. The first days and weeks were really tough. I earned that. And so did you. Quit like a bad ass man, like the bad ass you are. Post roll and tell you wife that this is for real - that this is the time. Show her your post while you are laying there in silence. You'll likely have bad ass tears running down your face. Tears of joy my friend.

I know you can do this. If I can, a bad ass like you can. Post roll. Join this community. No one ever regrets quitting. There is only one way to quit. QUIT.
Well, I'm not sure if you're calling me a bad ass or a bitch.....but that's probably exactly what I needed. Just wish I would have found this site before I went to the store. So here goes $10 in the trash....but how much I'll save in the long run will definitely work itself out.

Oh and they do definitely have alternatives for drug and alcohol addicts. But that's a topic for another day.
No day but today.

Hi my name's Tim. I've been dipping for about 24 years now. When I was in the Marine Corps I got as bad as 2-3 cans a day. I've tried quitting a few times. My wife has been on me real bad. I've told her I quit but she's caught me twice. The only thing we have ever fought about is my dipping and it has to stop. Today she caught me and I swear I'm done.

So I threw out a half a can today. Bought a big bag of sunflower seeds and the 2mg nicorette gum. After I bought the gum I found this website and a lot of people bad mouthing people using it. I don't think I'll need to take it as much as it says. I'm thinking of when I would normally dip for the next week or so. For the last year or so I only dip at work (I'm a police officer). Maybe 2 or 3 times a day during the school year (I work in the schools) but this time of the year when I'm on patrol I can go through a can a day. SO quitting at this time is going be hard but laying here in bed while my wife won't speak to me is harder. So I'm going to make it.
It's up to you man.

There is no hopefully in quit. You decide whether to quit, use, post, or just be a one and done posrer. I got faith in what you are doing because Im doing it too. I have been for a while. We're walking the same path my friend.

You figure out roll and how this site works yet?
I'm about to look at the roll call now. Thanks y'all for the words of encouragement.
No day but today.

In the end I Surrender, I and I alone accept that I have and always will have a Nicotene ADDICTION. It is my choice to quit, but I can't do it alone. I get to go down this path one time, I want to do it right. I recognize that my word, my integrety to you is on the line and is only as good as my actions. Caving is not an option in this plan-Eafman 7/11

I am not cured. I will quit one day at a time. I will continue to do what works. Posting roll everyday. To do otherwise would be foolish on my part. You can do this-Ready 12/11

To overcome your addiction you must comprehend what it means to fail-Razd 3/12

Theres a lot of people that come here, especially vets, that WANT to be reminded that they are addicts.-Tarpon 6/12

Just as a building starts with architectural drawings. Your daily quit begins with a promise.-Scowick 2/13

Here and now, focused on today, minute by minute, whatever it takes, I promise to all my bros and myself not to become a negative stat and stay quit!-krok 1/15

I want everyone to be quit. Even the assholes.-Probe1957 1/18

Ignoring history or erasing history fixes nothing and leads you inevitably down the same path.-69franx 04/30/2021
