Hey Bear, wanted to point out some things to you. And I'm putting in your info for you to refer back to in the future.  And by the way that is a little side purpose of your intro page.  Keep updating it over time and it becomes your own history for you to look back on, reflect, and learn from.  Sometimes folks lose sight of why they are here. Go back to your intro to remind your self. 

Keep in mind the KTC us free.  The only cost is posting roll.  Do it first thing every morning.  It's your promise to yourself.  To me. To the entire KTC community that you will not use nicotine in any way for that day.  Just worry about that one day.  Not forever.  That's too much to handle.  Just one day at a time bro. 

I sent you my number and you responded.  That is an excellent move on your part.  Not because its me, but because relationships are part of the backbone of KTC.  First you gotta do the work.  It's you that has to make it through the suffering of withdrawals, etc.  But next is building relationships.  Build them so well that your too embarrassed to fail before those that support you.  And build relationships so strong that you know if you fail, it will jeprodize someone else's quit and since you couldn't live with that happening, you push through and stay quit.  That my friend is the Kool-aide of KTC.  Know when a little kid drinksKool-aide and gets the red smile up on his face from the glass? That's what we are doing here.  So grab a glass and join in. 

Also.  The thing about addictions reaking havoc on your life.  Hey bud, your in like company.  We are all addicts.  That's why we are here.  But here we are taking out life back one day at a time.  ODAAT !!!  Focus on this one thing.  Staying quit.  You will experience so much.  It will change you.  You will learn about yourself.  You will once again be full of pride.  And knowing that you are able to be Quit will give you confidence for all the other things in your life.  Don't worry it fret over anything but being quit.  It's gonna get foggy but don't worry.  It gets better.  The skies clear off.  The sun comes out.  And it's awesome. 

Stay quit and ill quit with you every day !!!
Nice catch gw. I wrote this quitter off. I see he posted up day 4 of pure quit. WTFlip.

That is outf---ingstanding. Take a good look at the world bearhunter. Everything should be different. Your now poison free. for the first time in a long time the world should look a little different. You might want to make your way up the tallest building around. Take a good look my friend. Freedom = smell it, taste it and feel it.

This one made my day, proud of you bearhunter. Check your inbox. You have another number. Use it if you need it. Glad to be quit with you.
Thanks for the support all. Reaching out is huge! Looking forward to getting to know many of you! 'oh yeah'

The poison sucks. I hate it. I hated it this morning, I hated it at noon, I hated it at supper and I hate it tonight. I enjoy hating it so much I'm going to wake up tomorrow and start over hating it. I quit with anyone that wants to hate it with me.

Hey. He might be in jail from a hard night of drinking in the New Years. But then again, I've seen a lot of folks on New Years Eve that never got to live out one day of a resolution.

Well bearhawk, can i stop holding my breath? I haven't seen your roll post this morning. Are you still quit, or did you even pretend to quit for a minute? Post roll my friend. Show yourself and us how serious you are. Life is so much better free from the poison. You have no idea what your missing.

I am not looking forward to the next few days.
At the risk of sounding a li'l messed up... You're looking at it wrong.
1) Start right now. While you're getting in your last dips, how do you know that between now and midnight you're not putting in your lip the "one" that irrevocably gives you cancer?
2) Start right now and enjoy every minute of suffering. It's the price of freedom after 35 years of being a slave to nicotine. It's worth it.
you need to watch the video in my signature "kill the bear" This is the mindset that will help you succeed.. If you were backed in a corner by someone wanting to hurt you would you fight your way out? I would.. I would fight to the fuggin death.. that's what this is aboutÂ… your life is on the line broÂ… defend it at all costs.. the other side is mind-blowing, and this site will simply change your lifeÂ… see you at roll..
I remember stopping for a few hours on several new years resolutions. Only to start again before the day was out. How bad do you want it? I'll hold my breath.
whats your plan ?
"CLOSE THE DOOR. In my opinion, it?s the single most important step in your final quit. There is one moment, THE moment, when you finally let go and surrender to the quit. After that moment, no temptation will be great enough, no lie persuasive enough to make you commit suicide by using tobacco."

As I have heard from so many of you...it is time to put my addiction behind me. Self medicating and slowly killing myself out of habit seems like something I should have put behind me a long time ago. I have chewed for 35 years about a tin per day.

I am looking forward to the support of the people on this site. I am not looking forward to the next few days. I should mention that I am drinking too. That is hard for me to admit because it is a relapse for me. I haven't considered going back to AA meetings but as I write this, I know I will need that support too.

I have been divorced for two years and find that my addictions are killing relationships...because I am hiding them - dip and alcohol. It's frustrating and self-imposed. So looking forward to this journey even though I know I am looking at some serious pain to start.

Thank you for letting me join you all.

I gave up booze 12 years ago, and dip 4 days ago. You can do it. Start making a plan for what you're going to do with all your healthy free time. Drinking to make up for the chew quit won't get you through. Speaking from experience.

Quit now-- how many times have you set a time/date, then it became "just till i'm done with this dip" when that time came and you had a dip in? Or "just one more, (fill in the date) will be the day I quit"? then just one more? Then "Just one more day" or "Just one more can" or ???? It's addict talk, creating fear to just quit NOW. What you have to do is jump in! Let 2014 be entirely clean, with a good head of steam from several hours clean leading into the new year-- flush all your chew and any other nicotine now, resolve to finsih the day without any more. Then wake up and do it again tomorrow, entirely clean and without a can nearby to tempt you!

Are you tough enough to really do it? Quitting is as simple as getting rid of it and keeping it out of your body, but it ain't easy. It may be the hardest thing you ever do- but this site will help you succeed if your mind is made up and you let others help you.
This info helped me early on, and still does today: https://whyquit.com/whyquit/linksaaddiction.html

Quitters I’ve met so far: Ihatecope, >Pinched<, T-Cell, grizzlyhasclaws, Canvasback, BaseballPlayer, Cbird65, ERDVM, BradleyGuy, Ted, Zeno, AppleJack, Bronc, Knockout, MookieBlaylock, Rdad, 2mch2lv4, MN_Ben, Natro, Lippizaner, Amquash, ChristopherJ, GDubya, SRohde  -- always eager to meet more!

Quit now!!!!!I promise the pain will not not be as bad as getting you jaw cut off.
