The Unknown Variable That Changed How I Quit Dipping

The following was written by KTC Community member Trithious (June 2025) in response to a new quitter in the Welcome Zone on our Discord Server.

The Unknown Variable

I like many other people who have come here have failed to quit on my own more times than I can count in the last 6 years. Wanna know what changed? KTC was the unknown variable that changed how I quit. Before I would just tell my wife, “Hey I’m gonna try to quit” and she’d go, “Great thank you for the heads up” but then when it got to hard I’d just cave and hide it from her. Like any other wife she would ask, “how is quitting going” yeah I didn’t know that meant “I know you caved and I’m hurt you just didn’t tell me. I can’t support you if you hide things from me. If you’re capable of hiding this from me what else are you able to hide from me?”

I’ve been quit for 85 days, because this place offered a sense of “I’m not alone in this. People are also going through what I’m going through and people have made it on the other end and it didn’t kill them”.

I wasn’t living one day at a time before I joined and this place helped reinforce why it’s so important to live one day at a time. Sure you can have your eye on tomorrow, but this place REALLY enforces being present in today and not in tomorrow. Let tomorrow worry about itself and focus on being the best version of yourself today and for all of us here that includes being nicotine free.

So if you want we have multiple flavors of KTC-Koolaide. Flavors like:

• The Harsh Rebuke: Where the KTC kool aid man will break down your walls with that intense OOOHHHH YEAAHHHH then yell at you
• The Lemon of Truth: It might be sour, but you’ll be thankful it parched your thirst
• The Berry of Freedom: Has a sweeter taste to it, but still gives you that sense of I’m free and not a slave to this nicotine stuff anymore.

These flavors are ultimately your choice in what Kool-aid from here you will be able to enjoy.

But if you’re looking to quit and you wanna stay quit. Then don’t overlook us. Over 20 years of collective experience how can you ignore that?
