Two quit days behind Mr. Horny

Allow me to introduce myself. I'm 53, been dipping since college, yes, I'm that dumb.
I used to go through 2 cans/week, but I WAS a constant dipper, just small ones.
Made it through my first day, chewing lots of gum and Smokey Mountain.
Spent a lot of time lurking on KTC and it sure looks like the best online support group there could possibly be.
Looking forward to doubling my day count tomorrow!!!

Sluggo (SNL ?) I'm that dumb too. Just turned 50 and was killing myself with 2 cans a day. The only time I was dipless was when I was asleep or when the missus was frisky. The point is, is that we are all addicts. I can tell you with certainty that the decision to finally quit was the best thing I have ever done. It sucks ass big-time for awhile but then you begin to rediscover the real you. You probably don't remember him. He was a lot cooler than the current sluggo. Go find him. You will be Clean and stronger from the effort and commitment it takes to do this. Pretend nicotine Is Mr. Bill and fucking crush her once and for all.

Definitely a lot of accumulated dumb for sure (including my 40+ years) but look around you're surrounded by a lot more smart than can be imagined. Like Rdad said rediscover that real you or like most of us 'make the real you' because even though were getting up there in years we never lived adult lives without our crutch. I'm a pm away if you need anything.

Rdad,
Good call on SNL reference, that's how I got my call sign in Navy flight school in '85.
I instructors said I was so sarcastic that they always felt like MR. Bill.
Thanks all for the encouraging words, I'm so sick and tired of this dipping B.S.
I'm thankful for this KTC madness as well.

Spent a lot of time lurking on KTC and it sure looks like the best online support group there could possibly be.

Yes it is. Some may beg to differ, but for those of us who quit here every day, there is no other. Keep lurking, keep reading, and figure out how to post roll. Make that daily promise to yourself and to us here at KTC that you will not use any form of nicotine for that day. You do this, and every day we will do it with you and offer anything we can to help you stay quit for that day. We are full of tough love here, and for a website-virtual based support group, I've never experienced anything like it. It's intense.

Glad to have you on board.

Hey Sluggo. Welcome to KTC. I used for a long time as well so I can relate, even though I have a few more years on your young ass. I just wanted to tell you that you have done a nice job of posting roll, so lets consider taking your quit to the next level. Get involved with the site. Open the salmon colored Welcome Center tab at the top of the screen and start reading the posted materials. Send out a pm to the other new quitters in May, 2014, exchanging your telephone numbers. Call or text those boys and offer support to one another. Build a network of quitters and positive individuals around you. This is not an easy train ride through the majestic mountains of far east Asia...this is a bitch of a ride at first and needs all the help you can muster to stay aboard. Be strong, committed and utilize your new network of friends. Look up at the top right of this screen and you will see Inbox(1). Open it and you will see a message from me with my telephone number. Call that number 24/7 when you need to talk...or just to shoot the shit. See you on site cowboy. Wayne

Posting roll is similar to posting on this board. On the Mac, click on "quote". Scroll down and highlight the entire box in the "Original Post to Quote." Highlight this by using your mouse or by putting your cursor in this box and going up to "Edit" and selecting "select all". Then press "command" and "X" at the same time to cut. Then go up to the box at the top "Enter your Post" and press "command" and "V" at the same time to paste. If you don't like using the command button, going to the top of the page under "Edit" will also give you cut and paste options. Once you've pasted in the Post field. Scroll down and find the last entry of the Roll call (above the supporters line). Hit enter once, then type in your name and your promise. I quit with you brother (on my iMAC).
