My name is Ryan. I'm 23 Living in Central IL. Got introduced to Camel Snuss when I was 18 and eventually moved to copenhagen/skoal over the last 5 years. It's gotten so bad that it's hard to go 2-3 hours without the stuff, and I'm really starting to hate myself for it.
I tried quitting about this time last year. I knew it was going to be hard to quit, so I bought some Jake's Mint Chew to at least have something in my mouth to help with boredom that comes with not chewing. I lasted a week before I bought another can. Pretty disappointed in myself. That being said, has anyone tried triumph chew? I saw that it has different levels of nicotine in it. I know that I'm too big of a pussy to quit cold turkey so I ordered some cans of that to give it a try. I plan on quitting as soon as those cans come in, which should be monday or tuesday next week. I'll shoot you guys an update once I quit.
Look forward to talking to you guys, didn't even know this website existed until today.
Have a great new year! -Ryan

Ryan, some folks around here may have tried Triumph before coming here. However, we're a cold turkey group. Patches, gum, special versions of cat turds to suck on only prolong the pain. The healing doesn't start until you stop using completely.
I tried cutting back many times before I quit. I tried patches too. Each time I'd go for a little while and slowly creep back up past where I was before. At one point I was dipping with patches, "just to help until the patch kicks in." Maybe you're special, and this won't happen to you.
I'd guess what you were missing before was a lot like what I was missing: brotherhood and accountability. Fortunately we have lots of people here that'll help you work through the suck days and you'll help others out too.
Man up. Just put the shit down and be done with it. It was the best decision I ever made.

Hey Ryan. Great decision. Glad you have joined us. Go post roll and keep your promise. There are many people here willing do lend a hand. We have been there and know exactly what you are going through. I pitched the can for good 3 years ago and have made some great friends along the way.

Brandon "wetfeet" here 40 yrs old been dipping since I was 13. I did manage to trash the can about 12 years ago only to pick it back up 5 years later. A little more then 24 hrs from now I will do the same. It has become nothing more then a habit and something that I truly wish I would have never picked up the first time. Wish me luck, tolerances and faith in my direction. Any guidance for the site would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome! Why wait 24 hours more?
If you're like me, I was just about to quit too many times to count. Fortunately I finally hit my culminating point and just up and quit.
Why not put the can down right now? Enjoy New Year's Eve dip free. Don't wait to start 2016 right. Finish 2015 off right!
When you're nicotine free, head over to April 2016. Find a post with a list of names and numbers. This is roll. It's where we make a daily promise not to use nicotine today. It'll have instructions for how to post roll.
You're headed in the right direction. Just take the final step. And you don't need luck. Quit ain't about luck. It's about making a promise and keeping that promise.
