Proving to myself I can quit. Well here I am. I have dipped a can a day for 28 years. I have gotten to the point where I put a small amount in to sleep with. I have attempted to quit a bunch of times never making it a day. This time when I got my wife more papers and tobacco I said I might as well quit. I did just that at and had my last chew at 23:00 on the 23rd. My first 72hrs are almost up and the fog is thick. |

Welcome 8UP, glad to have you as a fellow November quitter. Stay close to the site, it works. Post roll daily and you'll have all the support you need. Quit one day at a time. Don't even think about forever. That was some of the best advice I got early in my quit. If you need a number send me a message. I'll hold you accountable if you hold me accountable. We got this. |

Thanks guys. Its day 4 and I will not chew today. I am not like most that quit so I won't promise that I won't start back. I will not start back on a day I give my word not to do so though. I have did some research and figure with my lifestyle there are more likely things to kill me. I chew to kill time and I have lots of it. I have a few other outlooks but they are better left to me lol. Right now I am doing it so I can say it can be done i you really want too |

If you really want to quit, you can do it. I promise you that. So if you are only quitting to see if it can be done, you can stop. It can be done. I hope you stay and post roll everyday. Wake up every morning and see if you quit one more day. But based on your comments if you miss roll one day, we can only assume that it is so you can stuff your mouth with chew. And that is not purpose of this site. |

8up. I hope you stay. For the rest of us. All caves are planned. This is what the planning phase might look like. When your cranium starts this crap, reach out, read, grab some balls, help another. Caving is not an option. Planning a cave is just the precursor. |

What the fuck does this mean? One of the things that's awesome about this site is the fortitude that folks show. The mental strength to change themselves in the face of adversity. You, my limp dick friend, have not got your mind right. My interpretation of this comment is you have already solidified a path to return to being a slave. I applaud you for admitting that you will not break your word that you will not use but that doesn't really mean much because you never believed you quit. There is no cave. |

You are right Souli. I started out writing a bunch of surly stuff. I was wrong to do that. I have edited out that bullshit. 8up, I am not surprised that you have "run the math" and you will likely die of something else. Caves are planned and drug addicts plan them. That is addict talk if I have ever heard it. I should know, I am a drug addict. Your addicted cranium if feeding you the biggest line of bullshit ever. Yes, you can die from this shit. This is not a joke. Yes, it is hard. Yes, you are an addict. The truth also is that yes, you can beat this and yes, it gets easier. Don't plan. Quit today. Quit 1 day at a time. Don't plan...Do. |

Souliman your foul mouth and lack of vocabulary appall me please refrain from further comment. Look up the odds of throat cancer are higher for a smoker that a chewer. I have bipolar suicide is more likely to get me than cancer from dip. I was not trying to prove to others on here I can do this but to others in my life that keep saying they are trying to quit smoking but "Its so hard" My intention was not to make light of the achievements of those on this sight, |
