I quit; Intro

Hello, I quit 18 days ago. There are still times the thought of just 1 more pops in my head but I've been able to resist this far. I started back in high school w skoal and continued while in military with cope. Back then I quit after about 4 years of use and stayed away for 15 years. Was working with someone who dipped that kept offering ...until one day I regretfully accepted. It's been 4 years on Kodiak since that day and I don't know where the time went. Tried many times to stop but there was always a way to rationalize 1 more. Everyday I fear the possibility of cancer anytime I think I feel something unusual.....possibly these are things I didn't feel prior since I always had crap in my mouth. Hoping to get support here to continue on the right path because I do not want to ever quit quiting. Thanks for creating this site

Shit man, that's something all us addicts need to pay big attention to. After 15 years the Nic Bitch still had the power to suck you back into her disgusting clutches. We can never again have another, not for any reason.
Well, you know what you are in for because you've been through this before. (But not with US)
Read and explore a lot in here to learn how this place works. POST ROLL ! , make some friends. We can help. Welcome!

Wooly, glad you're here. When I first quit I always thought in terms of the next 24 hours. Honestly, the first few days, I marked off individual hours on my phone. The point is I did and still do take things One Day At A Time.

Your post is a reminder that we also need to stay vigilant down the line. There's an acronym some people around here use: Never Again For Any Reason (NAFAR). It seems overwhelming to think about, but you know as well as any of us that a decade and a half later the addiction can overwhelm you just as easily.

I quit with you today, and look forward to seeing you around here in the future
"Post roll. Post more if you want to. That's the beauty of the place: We ask you post roll. We ask you to be honest. That's all. No more. No less. Be there for your brothers and ask for help when you need it." - Wastepanel 10/6/14

"What would you do to save your own life? If you were fighting cancer today would you suffer through Chemo, surgeries, try new a therapy? change your diet, go to church? What intolerable hell would you endure to simply live. When you have thought long and hard about that, think on this. Why not apply that attitude to your quit. Suffer through the temporary discomfort of withdrawal to achieve your freedom from a slow painful demise via nicotine. Your in the ring already- fight like you mean it." - Skoal Monster 10/8/14

"Others can take away 99% of the shit in your life - the bank can take your house, truck, retirement, bitch ass ex-wife can take away your kids, cancer can take your loved ones but NO ONE can ever take your quit but YOU - rkymtnman"

How Long Will I Be Quit?

Fawk, what a wake up call. 15 years. And now 18 days of hard core, white-knuckled solo quit. Do you ever do anything the easy way, Wooly? I'm glad you're here, brother and I'm quit with you today. Shoot me a PM if you need some support or anything.

Haven't seen you on roll yet man, hopefully you're just enjoying your Sunday.

It helps to post roll first thing in the morning. That way if a crave hits you late morning / early afternoon you've already posted your promise and you can use that as a tool to fight.

Congrats on hitting three weeks yesterday!
