Hey guys. A little about me. Im 24 years old will be 25 before my 100 days, I've been dipping since my 17th birthday. Ive played hockey my whole life and saw everyone dipping so I guess it was bound to happen, and pissed that I ever started.

Ive tried quitting a few times(girlfriends, family, decided on my one a couple time). I even joined this site a while back but never posted or got into it, and as like most, my quits were just periods of time where I didn't dip.

I sit here tonight, after taking out my last dip and flushing down the remaining cans, Ready To Quit.

I will start Roll Call tomorrow when I wake up as it will be my first day. I do NOT look forward to this journey but it must be done.

Start now. Start while you're committed. Don't wait until tomorrow when your resolve could weaken. Take advantage of this moment of clarity.

I did. I posted it as soon as my last dip was out and the rest was flushed. At this point im 1.5 hours in.

Your definitely right tho. many times i said tomorrow. and tomorrow never came.

Well... That needs turned around bro. You gotta love your quit! You gotta own your quit! Embrace how much this is gonna suck for a li'l while. It's a small drop in the bucket compared to all the days you fed your addiction.

Quitting is fun dude! Not everyone can/will do it but you came here. You found us. We know how to quit. We've blazed this trail, man... Follow it.

Welcome. AJ is correct grab your nuts and feel them grow as you win each battle. The suck will remind you of how intense your addiction is and why you don't want to repeat the process.

Whatsup bro,

I am around your age and had been dipping around the same amount of time as you. I'm on day 25 and to be honest its still a REAL struggle but I'm getting through it one day at a time.

Here's some advice, this is what I do when I have a bad craving. You said that you had tried to quit for your family and girlfriends, believe me I did as well, it doesn't work. I've read on this site that you have to quit for you and only you. Well I'm not sure if I entirely agree with that. When I have a bad craving I imagine my future family, my future wife and my future kids, and I imagine having to sneak off every hour or two to throw a lip in, which is not the type of husband/father I want to be. Wherever I am whenever a craving hits I visualize my future wife and kids around me, and think about how much I don't want that around them.

That has been working so far.

Stay strong

I just turned 25 in December. I'm 12 days in and I can tell you, this isn't an easy course you've set out on. But, it's completely worth it. The people on this forum are the best support system you're going to find to quit dip and nicotine. Post roll every day and make the promise to yourself that you won't use nicotine. It's the best way to quit One Day At A Time.

I think you misunderstand roll. You've made 2 posts both here. Go to the welcome center above and read why and how we post roll. I hope you're serious about quitting.

Thanks guys. It's nice to know I have support. I'm definitley in it for good this time no matter what. No morning dip and to be honest I disint even notice. Now to keep going.

Applejack your completely right. Time to nut up or shit up

Wt57 I'm not sure I understand what you are saying? You post roll every morning as accountability and to say you will not use nicotine that day? As I did this morning.
