Welcome to the site. This place is for real and if you are really serious about it you too will be quit forever. How "hard" it is, in my opinion, depends on two things. First, how determined are you to be quit? Second, how much do you want to be quit? Two different questions. If you want to be quit for you (the right reason btw) and are determined to be quit for good, then while it may suck for a few days or weeks it is going to be easy in relative terms. If you are quitting for your wife, your kids, your dog, or the hot ass neighbor that will be tanning in a bikini in a few months, then you are destined to fail. Similarly, if you really want to be done with this shit for good and you have had the mental conversation and decided that come hell or high water THIS TIME is the last one...then you got it. That and you'll have all kinds of support here. I was up to three cans per day and had a habit that started about two-and-a-half decades before my last day. Quitting at first sucked and there were a few rough patches, but quitting is one of the best things that I have ever done. See you at 100.

Welcome. If you look around these hallowed halls you will see that you are little different from most. I myself dipped for 24 years before I removed my head from my ass. This site and this philosophy work but...you have to do the work! We cant quit for you. You have to make a conscious decision today and each day that you are stronger than your addiction and you wont surrender! It gets easier after each day. You can do this...How bad do you want it?

'clap' 'clap' 'clap'

Three cheers and welcome to hell! You have 100 days of hell. Stick with the plan and post roll every day you wake. Stay quit for 100 days and you will begin to experience a freedom and confidence you had buried in your addiction.

Short intro but I can tell you are ready. Don't worry about tomorrow. Just focus on today. If you wake up in the morning repeat.

I am excited for you. Keep reading and go to chat often to stay strong in your determination.

Welcome to KTC and the best decision you could make. Check out that salmon colored welcome center up in the left side of your screen and read all you can. Take your quit one day at a time. Post roll early everyday and make the promise to quit. The first few days are the worst but all the nicotine should be out of your system in 72 hours, after that it's really all just crazy mind games. Remember how it feels. Embrace the suck so you never have to post another day one. I Quit with you today. Reach out all you can and meet your fellow quitters, get some digits and do everything you can to keep nic out of your face. Use gum, seeds, fake or hard candy. This site has unbelievable quitters on here that would drop whatever they were doing to help out a quitter in need. Again, welcome and congratulations. If you need anything just pm me. I'm always available.

This is my first day after 30 years of chewing. I was chewing 1 1/2 to 2 cans a day.
Just wanted to check in to get started. I had my last chew yesterday at 3:00, I know that it is going to be hard I just dont know how hard, But I am ready to find out, I am doing this!
