I'm about to start this quest and just wanted to give a shoutout to the quitters in the house!!! Been reading through the website and have a lot more reading to do, but figured an intro might be appropriate. I'll post a full intro soon when work eases up!
Well, my story is no different from anyone else's. Started dipping at the end of high school and kept it up all these years later. Oh I've quit before. A number of times. I've never made it 100 days though!!
I've been slowly cutting back the past few days, mixed with using gum. To be honest, it doesn't feel easier. I'd love to pack a big nice one right now, but I need to get rid of this nasty habit. My wife is at her wits end with it now.
I plan on jumping in Christmas day. Glad to be here!!!

Post roll first then worry about the into.
Welcome in, dude. This place will save your life if you follow the method. Get involved and stay involved... you won't regret it.

Why are you waiting until Christmas? Why not dump all of your stash TODAY and be 10 days quit on Christmas day? You have decided that you want to quit - why roll the dice on your health any longer? :blink:
All we ask here is a promise for 24 hours...

Thanks Applesauce!! ^^^ Cute.
So... from this particular post I knew you were gonna be a pussy. All talk... no action.
Your mentality is all wrong. Quitting happens now... not later. How many times have you quit? None. You've stopped... for a little while then pussed out. Planning a quit date just never works, man. You're an addict and tomorrow ALWAYS breeds another tomorrow when you can't make and own a decision to quit. Oh... did you see what I called you in the previous sentence?
An addict.
Because this shit isn't a habit... it's an addiction. Nicotine, the substance you're addicted to, is fucking foul, bro. Heroin strength in its hold on you... drop for drop as strong as snake venom... used as a pesticide in the early part of the 20th century.
^^^ That's what you're ingesting when you fill your face. Still think it's yummy? Still longing for it? How do you know that the next lip you pack isn't the ONE that turns healthy skin cells into a cancerous nightmare? Why play roulette, dude? It's stupid cuz... you lose eventually.
Quit now. Be a man... be bigger than a plant full of chemicals in a tin can. And... do it for you. Quitting for someone else or because of someone else doesn't work. We see that failure all the time. This is for you. You.
What's it gonna be? Freedom is pretty damn cool, man.

Dude, do you know how hard it is for me to just toss out a 5 can miniroll?? Shit I appreciate the words and all but damn. I just calculated Christmas as a quit date based on what I have left. It could be sooner but I've been cutting back from what I normally do. To try and gradually ease down to a dip per day. It's fucking hard!!!

You enjoy paying money to big tobacco for the privilege of killing yourself? You enjoy being controlled by a substance?
Yeah, dude... it's hard. It's SO fucking hard! We get it. I get it.
I chewed for 25 years... 2 cans a day for a good chunk of it. All day. Every day. Go find my intro and read it. You'll see.
But... I, like you (I think), finally had enough. 1,340 days ago I Quit and I fucking owned that decision. Cold turkey like a mo' fo'. No fake. No substitutes. No weaning. None of that shit. I wanted feedom and I took it. You can do this, man, but you have to put away the fear. Get pissed that your life isn't a real life because of the control your addiction has on you. You'd rather hang on to a few cans and risk your life for another dip? You're like Gollum holding onto his Precious, bro. You're better than that. I guarantee you that by dumping your stash... I mean flush that evil shit down the toilet... and joining a quit group... and getting involved on KTC like it's your job...
You. Will. Do. This.
You. Will. Win.
Who doesn't want that!?!

Been reading in the quit groups today. Holy shit. Back later

DipperDan...why the fuck would you come to a site that demands no nicotine, and post an intro where you're still using nicotine? Why would you not just Quit and then be done with it.
Yes, it is hard as fuck. You will be uncomfortable. Guess what...you already said you're uncomfortable from cutting down.
That's why it doesn't work.
Just fucking dump your shit and be done and post a Day 1 in March 2017 Pre-HOF Group. It is the only way to do this.
Otherwise, we will never see you back here...this Christmas, next Christmas, etc.,m etc., etc.
Fucking do it, man.

Do you want to be quit, or not? It's not about time. It's about time. Time to quit. Do it, or don't. If you are waiting until a certain date, like Christmas, you will wait until you die.
It's your choice, choose. Life or death, your choice. Simple, but not easy.

At least we got to the root of the issue. Real quitters don't slow dip through their last 5 cans before quitting. Toss them now! Consider that money lost and don't worry as you will save countless more dollars living dip free. B)B
It's up to you DipperDan. Are you going to quit? Are you ready to quit?
Folks who are ready to quit post roll. The ball is in your court.

Most excellent. Now... Did you flush your remaining shit down the toilet? Remove the temptation. No trophy cans or any stupid shit like that. Listen to AppleJack, Dan.
Dude knows what he's talking about. Get RID of that temptation. And be ready for the massive SUCK that is about to overtake your brain housing group. If you haven't already, trade digits with members of your quit group (or check your inbox for mine). Quitting is HARD....sometimes it may even feel like you're going to die if you don't get a dip. Trust me, you won't. You need to build a net of accountability so strong it'll sustain you in the weak moments that are about to come at you like a tsunami. You CAN quit, but you WILL need some help. Get the help now while it's still relatively calm, before the storm hits. (not being overly melodramatic....it is gonna SUCK until it doesn't).
