Holy Shit Quitters... Today has been a f-ing shit storm! I have craved absolutely all damn day.. WTF? Don't know if it centered around Scrockett and the posts there this morning or what? Don't have a clue. but I do know that the mental process was taking me dangerously close to a dip today. A few times I was ready to throw up my arms and concede "it ain't worth it". I was actually tatsing it. Gum grafts/cancer/tooth loss - fuck it all.. At least I can have some relief. Well I didn't pick up, truthfullyy I'm not overly glad I didn't. In a weird place.. Being a quitter is fun sometimes.. Not so much today/tonight. Gooch |

Caving is not an option, Do something else. Burn your boats!

That's right. Crazy voodoo magic quit." - Souliman Nicotine doesn't give two shits about your strategery, and that's just a fact. Only strategy that works is promise not to use nicotine first thing every morning, keep that promise all day, rinse, repeat. - teamgreen | |

Gooch, Been there and probably will be ther again. This is a series of phases. Stay the course. If you have a bad day, and survive it...the great day is coming!!! It just happens. I guess it is the buzz of success! I live for that buzz. It kicks the shit out of tobacco humping every time. It gets better but winning is contagious. You are undefeated bro. Isn't that bonerific!!! You are catching the wave of enjoying your quit. Live and love your victories...they are epic!!! |

Thanks for everything all y'all! (y'all is a word in ky).. Last 5 days have been the hardest of my quit! Had to be God and you guys getting me through because I simply do not have the power not to dip.. I am truly powerless when it comes to dip.. I am an addict.. Completely & totally an addict.. I swear this morning I was really thinking about a cave before I posted.. I knew once I posted a cave was out until midnight.. And seriously I told myself this morning.. If I still want to dip as badly at midnight as I do ths morning it's on!! So I posted and went though my day.. Most of the day I have focused on the many benefits of being tobacco free.. (I have dipped a shitload of my new famous getgooched homemade dip).. My Benefits Today! 1). Sleep.. I am getting sleep for the 1st time in many years.. This has really been one that has kept me going... 2). I can have a real conversation with someone without thinking about "damn I wished they'd hurry.. I really need a dip! 3). Sometimes I have a HUGE sense of accomplishment (this is my crown jewel of the year) 4). I really get to keep my teeth... My real teeth too 5). Money I actually am saving he money I'd spend on it Who else has some? |

How about trying to kiss your wife/girlfriend (whatever) and they don't look at you like you are an idiot because you have grains in your teeth and your breath smells like cat shit. Or your kids don't find spit bottles laying around house and think they are tea?? Don't have to hide it at work, especially if you work in office environment??? Just a few.. |

The energy I have now, it's awesome! I'm always going, not feeling that sluggish or tired all the time like I did when I dipped. Also, not dipping at work, when I talk to customers, not having to rush it or worry about where to spit. Feeling like if I can accomplish this, I can accomplish anything...like a boss |

Hey Gooch --- some great stuff on your intro thread....You're doing great and guess what - you DO have the power brother. You've proven it. God and your co-quitters have helped, but YOU have done it. Every day you post roll and every day you honor it. You are a hell of a quitter. Don't discount that and don't downplay it. You have taken control of something that had been controlling you. No one did it for you - you did it!! You are a bad mfer of quit!!!!!!!! I am proud to be a part of QUIT OR SPLIT with you. Your quit inspires me. Keep it up man...........Don't ever look back. |

Hey Everybody.. Thanks for everything Guys.. I have not had one single craving all damn day! Go figure - yesterday my ass was on fire all day.. today - a walk in the park? all I can say is.. HMMMMMMM?? And truthfully I haven't even thought about it that much.. I don't know where I heard this.. "No Man is Free than can not command himself".. if all I am doing is thinking about a dip.. I am still not free.. doing it or not.. If I am thinking about it.. It has me by the nads... so I am honestly experiencing some of that real freedom that WT is talking about.. Gooch |

Nice work man. Amazing how changing your life for the better can put you in the dumpster now and then. It will pass. And your gigantic balls of steel will swing in the breeze once again. |
