I'm on day 178 and the last 2 weeks were the toughest of my quit. Came embarrassingly and scarily close to a cave a few times. Doing fine today but it was tough. The point is, never let your guard down. This fight is never over. It does get easy though. Most of the time I never even thank about it, just recently did it get tough and it came out of nowhere. Keep it up. |

Thanks Guys! Guess we have to take the good with the bad.. when I am on a pink "no craving" cloud... I'm going to ride the pink completely out of that bitch! < then spur a little harder for more pink!!! You know if I make it to July 17.. I will have 3,285 days of "quit".. with other shit.. Cocaine & tequila, if i'm honest about it.. no reason to lie to you guys.. you all understand addiction! Truthfully that 1st entire year was pretty much a bitch! I keep that 1 year token with me at all times.. I never ever want to go through the "suck" of any drug withdrawl again.. I still have drunk dreams on occasion.. rarely do i have coke dreams..Here's some scary shit - tobacco was truly my gateway drug that led me into some very sordid dark and lonely places..I really do not know how old I was when I started chewing habitually.. young! I had my first chew around the age of 6.. By 12 i was huffing gas.. by 15 smoking weed.. by 16 drinking and smoking weed.. then on and on until i reached 35 years old & doing an 8 ball of coke and at least a fifth a day & always 1 or more cans of skoal or cope < everyday and always! I have truly been given the grace to put my entire life back together.. the folks I meet on a daily basis they have no idea & really do not need to have one just how much i have struggled with addiction.. addiction has truly been my one big (enormous) life issue.. tobacco started it... tobacco finished it... it took nearly 9 years after I laid down my last drink to string together more than a few days of quit concerning dip..& i tried and tried... time and again! It happened because of you guys and this site! I pray I get to keep it again tomorrow.. Believe me when I say it has been the hardest one to break! Thanks Fellas! Since 6/11/12 I quit with you guys! |

Hey Gooch - right there w you...about 5 years into my other 'quit'.....Addiction is a tough thing, cause if you got that personality type, like me, its one thing or another....I had 'paused' dipping early on into my not drinking, but too much shit to deal with so I continued (I know that is an excuse). And I would always use the tomorrow train of thought...% years later is tomorrow. Hopefully its not too late right? I am glad to be quit w you. |

I had the weirdest damn dream last night.. I was in a big ass field.. There was a river in the middle of the field.. there was about 5 or 6 guys on my side of the river.. (I think it may have been Diesel..Tinman..WT.. & don't know who else.. we were all camo"ed completely out head to toe.. masks and all.. on the other side of the river there was Viet Cong.. and they were every where.. no bullets flying yet.. Next thing I know were all in a house with Charlie Sheen! For real Charlie Sheen! He was talking to us and we were all just kind of having fun getting ready to go fight! No big deal.. kinda like we were getting ready for some game or something.. then next thing I know I am standing alone with an Uzi at the end of his driveway by a garage and some chick comes jogging around the corner.. she stops for a second sees me and is paralyzed by fear.. she passes out and falls to the ground.. I bend over get her by the arm to help her up and say "Maam you might want to go in the house, it's getting ready to get nasty out here".. (here's the truth I honestly wanting a nipple shot that's why I bent over to help her! - didn't get one).. then next thing I know, me and one other camo'ed out dude was walking down a gravel road checking our guns gettin ready to fully engage the enemy.. don't know who it was because we were werein camo masks? we were def together & we weren't scared, not even a little.. we were on a mission..only one goal in mind! just very matter of fact and certain.. 100% confident we were about to kick some ass! OK.. any of you dream readers out there.. what does it all mean? I just took we we are gonna beat this addiction.. we just have to fight it! just fight it with confidence?? cya ladies.. Gooch |

Today I am 28 days.. If i picked up today I would be so damn miserable that I caved.. and truthfully after almost a month.. the dip would taste like shit and I'd have to make myself do it! I could do that though! I've done it before. But today I really want to be free more than I want to be a slave.. I can think of 3 times I've had this long.. once was about 17 years ago - i actually had 3 months.. - caved because I drank beer! 2nd was about 7 years ago.. had a month - caved over a stressful situation concerning an auction! 3rd was in April of this year.. Had 10 days.. caved over an auction.. Actually all those are nothing but pussy excuses! You know why i really caved??? because I was not committed! Today I am committed! For Today! Gooch |

Gooch, I'm a big fan of your posts and feel the same you do right now - I've made it to day 24 a few times before but ended up caving each time. What is different for me this time is that I don't have the desire to chew - a buddy of mine cracked open a fresh can of copenhagen yesterday and the smell made me gag. In the past, I would have been fighting the urge to bum a chew and known in the back of my mind that it was only a matter of time before I caved. It was a question of when rather than if . . . I am going to stay committed and stay quit with you! |
