Username: Skeeder99
Name: Chad
Age:32
Where: MI
Married: Yes, with first child on the way
Addiction Details:
Started chewing when I was 13 because my older brother and his friends chewed. All my friends chewed as well, so it was always easy to get. I'd been chewing Skoal Straight at just over a can a day since I was 16. I've tried quitting one time before, and made it to a month. So I thought I was in the clear and could have just one dip, no big deal....3 days later I was back to my old ways. I havent tried quitting in over ten years, so I'm glad I found this website to help me along the way.

Username: Paulregali
Name: Paul
Age:39
Where: Oregon
Married: Yes, with 4 daughters
Addiction Details: Dipped since the 7th grade. First chew was a mistake, i was off and running. My chewing has always gone up and down, sometimes a lot other times very little but always daily, but NO MORE.

Username: LiveSimple02
Name: Steve
Age: 21
Where: WI, but stationed in San Diego for the Marine Corps
Married: No
Addiction Details: I started dipping when I was a junior in high school so its only been 5 years for me but that is 5 years too long. Shortly after I started dipping I also began smoking because everybody I worked with did. Over those 5 years I've gone through times where I either smoked or dipped, but most of the time I did both. I never hesitated to go out and smoke and when I got inside to throw in a dip. I've been wanting to quit for a while but given my circumstances, I never could really get myself to commit to it. Being in the Marine Corps has not helped me at all with the tobacco use and for 7 months in Afghanistan, the only time I wasn't using was when I was sleeping or at the gym. Now is my time to quite though.

Addiction Details:
Started chewing when I was 13 because my older brother and his friends chewed. All my friends chewed as well, so it was always easy to get. I'd been chewing Skoal Straight at just over a can a day since I was 16. I've tried quitting one time before, and made it to a month. So I thought I was in the clear and could have just one dip, no big deal....3 days later I was back to my old ways. I havent tried quitting in over ten years, so I'm glad I found this website to help me along the way.

Addiction Details. Started smoking as a habit in 8th grade ('81). Picked up Dip as a dumb ass approach to quit smoking in '02. Kodiak to Grizzly. Quickly turned into can a day. I "quit" before several times. Once I made a year. I know what I'm facing and I fear failure. I've been feeding the nic bitch for 30yrs. It's time for the fat ass whore to die. WE CAN DO THIS, ONE DAY AT A TIME.
