After 28 years of a can of Skoal a day I got tired of it. Day 2 was the worst. This one is bad too. But I will prevail if I can keep from knocking the living hell outta some dumb shit moron. |

James, Welcome to the quit. Take Scowick's advice and read all the topics about getting familiar with KTC. Post Roll everyday! Those first 3-4 days are heinously unpleasant. Drink a lot of water. Get to know your HOF brothers. PM them, me or anybody if you need to vent. Great job on the quit. We are proud to be quit with you today. whsii Day 12 |

I know that each of the first days feel like a week and it is an hour by hour struggle. But you are making ground that is too valuable to win back again. Keep going. Give everyone around you the heads up that you are quitting and that you may snap on them. Declaring your quit to them will make you more accountable and they will be more supportive when you need it. |

welcome James! you have made a great decision to quit. don't ever forget that. the nic bitch will try to make you think otherwise, but that is only because she wants you to be a slave to her again. fuck that...you're free now. don't go back. you have made a great start to your quit. it will get so much better -- just hang in there. like others have said, get familiar with the site, REALLY familiar. it will save your quit. post roll early and often and you will be good. glad to be quit with you. |

I'm starting to think that nicotine cessation exists so folks with the mental strength to walk through walls can thin the herd of the galactically stupid. |

Day 5 here and this morning after shaving I found my back-up can of Skoal in the top drawer of the bathroom sink. The mere sight made my heart rate increase. Without a second thought I pulled the top, held my nose and flushed it down the sink. I thought all would be gone but there was the smell. I decided it was disgusting and went on with my day. I finally learned roll call this morning. This fog is getting really bad and I feel that my ears are ringing. I have dipped at least a can a day for 28 years so I guess it should take a while to be "normal" if I even know what that is. Thanks for the support from all. |

james, Way to go on the the flushing. If you look at my avatar, I actually bought that can so I could have an empty one to put some rounds through. I proceeded out of the store opened it up and happened to catch a whiff, pretty much felt the same as you did, and dumped the whole can of shit in the garbage. That will be the last time big tobakky, gets any of my money! Way to go. Drink a ton of water. It really helps. I glad to quit with you today! whsii |

James, That is a pretty liberating feeling, isn't. Being able to tell an addiction that has controlled your life for so long that you are no longer under her spell. Flushing that shit is telling your addiction that you are now in control. You now know her lies, you can get through a day without her. You are not dependent on her. Proud to quit with you. |

I just received in the mail my non tobacco dip my girlfriend ordered for me. It almost makes me feel guilty using it, kinda like all the grossness just missing the nic bitch. Any thoughts? |

Welcome to the grind friend. Glad you made the decision to join! Can't say that I have used the fake stuff, but I did buy a can. Stuffed it in a drawer at the house just in case. I feel the same way about using it though. Seems like it's still cheating. I don't want anything even similar to snuff in my mouth anymore, so I keep a supply of gum, seeds, seet tarts and my personal favorite a chewing straw. I see that a lot of guys do fall back on it. Sure is a lot better to cave on some non tobacco than the shit that puts you back at day! Keep up the fight. |
