Post by: JJMARSHALL117 on August 08, 2012, 03:50:00 PM

You could skip the whole quit-thing and have your dentist remove all your teeth and replace them with implants.

You're an addict. I'll give you one guess as to what the best solution is....

I can't even believe this question was even asked....QUIT DIPPING!!!! Either that or wear dentures for the rest of your life.

You all are taking my question the wrong way. I'm not looking for something to skate around quitting. I was just wondering if there's anything else I could be doing along with quitting

'crackup'

yeah, you could keep it out of your mouth and shove it up your ass but then you would have your proctologist bitching too.

Well shit. The only solution is to quit doing the things that cause the problem in the first place.

All kidding aside, I hope you are asking for things to do in addition....Brush and floss after meals. Water pics and motorize tooth brushes are great. Regular dental check ups every 6 months. Lay of sugar and soda with high fructose corn syryp.

When brushing, brush your gums, tongue, and roof of mouth. Your time brushing should be a minimum of your favorite song. Hum the song while you brush.

Get a good restorative dentist and periodontist. Depending on how bad the gum loss is, they may can help......

Or, you can take the route I had to. Pull what's left, and do implants. Should only cost $50 to $70K.

Jim,
Just noticed you registered today. You have to be thick skinned here. If you're quit you have friends here. If your not, you will get your ass handed to you.

Sometimes you may feel under attack. Take all things in stride. This is a place where we come to nic rage. Better to take it out on you and me than our loved ones.

So your question was innocent but an opportunity for us to let off steam. You will appreciate it when you nic rage.

Meaning I know you are here to quit. Have you posted your promise and are you quit right now?

Here..This is how you reverse the effects... I've had 5 gum grafts (maybe more? I have honestly lost count).. they are painful as hell... they never put me to sleep when I get them.. they lay your ass back in a dentists chair under a bright ass light.. you have to keep your mouth wide open for an eternity.. after a while your jaws cramp so damn bad you have to take breaks.. they will give you a lot of numbing agent at first in the roof of your mouth and in your gums on both sides (inside  outside of your gums) because the stitches go all the way through your gums.. the first few shots are really the only ones that actually hurt, because after that it is numb.. There are several bad parts of this procedure.. my least favorite is when they cut the hunk of skin out of the roof of your mouth.. they pretty much have you blind folded and your numb as hell.. still you can tell because the dr says "open wide".. the scalpel goes into the roof of your mouth and you immediately taste blood.. because it runs into the back of your throat.. (this is one good thing about being a dipper.. we have an auto shut off back there and we can block from swallowing!) after the dr. makes the first few slices there.. eventually they have to saw the hunk of skin off  THIS IS THE PART I HATE.. you head moves with the sawing action! by this time they have already completely pulled  scraped what is left of your gums in the bottom away from your teeth as to put the newly cut piece from the roof of your mouth.. this next part irks the shit out of me.. my dr always lays the hunk of skin from the roof of my mouth on my shoulder until she is ready to put it into place.. then.. finally when she is ready.. the hunk of meat from the roof of my mouth.. it is tightly packed between my old gum (whats left of it)  my teeth.. then it is stitched into place.. with a rather large needle that goes all the way through your teeth and gums and back around to neatly sew the new hunk of gum into place.. the entire time this is happening the assistant is sucking blood from your mouth and throat with a large tube.. under the blindfold you can see massive amounts of blood going through the tube.. once were done.. a piece of plastic called a stint is placed in the roof of your mouth, to keep you from bleeding.. for the next week or so it is very soft food and eating on one side of your mouth.. very slowly and carefully not to rip anything away from the gum or hit the roof of your mouth.. you are incredibly swollen and sore for a few days..often during the 1st few nights you bleed from the roof of your mouth while sleeping and gag on bloodÂ… now just imagine being so addicted that within hours of leaving this surgeryÂ… you want to dip so badly that you put a dip into your top lip just to get your nic fix.. Never has a gum graft ever stopped me from dipping.. only when I got tired of all the shit did I stop.. when I got tired of being a fucking slave and paying big money to be the slave. Today even though its only been 12 days.. I still want to dip a few times a day.. but you know what.. I donÂ’t have to! Gone are the days when I have a surgery and I cannot even make it through the rest of the day and I have to pack that shit into my top lip to get the fix.. tell me I am not an addict! I am totally an addict.. if you are here.. guess what?? You probably are too. Today I am so thankful.. I do not have to dip! The nic bitch has lost her fucking power today boys.. I respect the shit out of her because I know what she can do to me.. but today I say no thanks.. actually I say Fuck You and all the pain that comes with you.. I am free today! Thanks fellas! Gooch

Good on you, if your quit, post asap. That way when the cravings come, you have your sword and shield to fight the battle.

Make the promise now and keep your word today. POST ROLL.

It's day 2, and this couldn't suck any more at the moment. I'm sitting at work with absolutely zero foucs, the nic bitch just keeps running through my mind, and the funny part is as much as I want to cave right now. I posted roll this morning and will whole heartedly stick to it. I have no idea why, i don't know any of you for shit as yesterday was my first post (that I basically was torn a new one for because i worded it poorly), maybe its just because my story isn't all that far off from a lot of those that I have read.

I never did post my intro yesterday, so here goes. When I think back on it I really have no idea why the fuck I even started. I must have thought it was cool at the time.

I was 15 my buddy on the lax team had stolen a can of cope from the grocery store. He took it home, put in a dip while taking a shit, and proceeded to puke his guts out.

And yet having never done it before and hearing his story. I still took the can off him.

I never did like cope, was more of a skoal man throughout highschool, then went off to college and money for booze was more important so cut back on the expensive shit down to the red seal, timberwolf, and rooster.

Then before I knew it the only thing I was using on a daily basis was wintergreen griz (what i have deemed the absolute scum of the dip world) I mean I might as well have just been sticking straight fiberglass in my mouth.

I've tried to quit numerous times throughout the years, the longest i ever made it was 13 days before a cave. I've read, and read, and read some more and will continue to do so. I have been back and forth on KTC since 2006 (however the last time I was here the site looked nothing like it does today)

I know i'm just rambling at this point, but i oddly feel better from just bitching it all out.

Day by day I plan to honor my roll call. and apprecaite the support i have received so far.

Day 2 sucks...but you will make it. Just be strong. Stay busy and when you get sleepy tonight--go to bed don't force yourself to stay up your normal hours. I know for me I was a night owl because I just enjoyed staying up and had a dip in while I did it. Now I actually feel ok in the mornings because I'm getting more sleep.

Quit with you

I know I gotta take it one day at a time. But at the same time I'm trying to start preparing myself for tomorrow. Tomorrow is going to be my first really big test.

For starters I've scheduled my first dentist appointment in 3 years. So I know exactly how the nic bitch is going to enter my head as I leave either with

1)Fuck yeah everythings good, you haven't done damage it's not a big deal go and get a can

or

2)Man you really fucked up, but its already fucked up so why stop here go and get a can

Luckily I know that these will be waiting for me now and they won't sneak up on me. I fully plan on combating this by posting roll first thing in the morning before going, and following it up by posting to this thread stating that I did not cave when I get back home. If I have not posted by 10:00 tomorrow morning, hold me accountable.

The 2nd part to my challenge is I will be working the rest of the day from home, alone, all day. In which I use to dip my face off, and I'm not fully sure how I'm going to combat this.

I told MT I would take him up on his offer that in order to cave I need to call or text him first. Which I plan on sticking by. I will also most likely be glued to KTC all day long. But I have to wander away from the comp every now and again.

What coping techniques have you found most benefical to you?

Get some candy, seeds, lot's of water etc. Stay busy, even if it means stepping away from the situation and goin for a walk. Mthomas is a phenomenal person to have on your side, so you are good there. Don't go back on your word, POST ROLL early so that you have your word in to the rest of the guys. I know you can do it, but you have to have faith in yourself as well. I would be happy to give you another number if you need it. Let me know, stay strong.

a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. just got back from the dentist (hadn't been there in 3 years). I was expecting all kinds of cavities, and didn't really know what to expect from the health of my gums.

To my suprise they said my gums looked quite healthy and I only have 2 small cavities. And suprisingly enough the nic bitch hasn't crept her way into my head yet today (but i know that is to come)

The fear of anticipation is many times greater than the reality. Congratulations on your quit so far.

I have found that distraction works great to get through the rough times. For instance, I am being distracted by your avatar right now.

It's good to have you here man. I'm on day 5 so I am barely removed from those awful first3 days. I drank caffeine and chewed gum like a madman. Then I would box at night. I took a walk one night as well. My philosophy was just do whatever to get through the first 72 hrs. I am a night person by nature but I was lights out by 9 this week. Like bigdave said...just sleep. It was worth it because the Day 4 morning was pure bliss. Just stay strong and hound this site too.

don't go nuts on caffiene, it'll mess you up a bit. Nicotine cancelled out the effects of caffiene. If you used to drink a pot of day, take it way way down until you can tell the difference. Other wise you'll be shakin like a bird dog trying to shit a peach in a snow storm.

Feeling pretty good this morning (but still have my guard up) Made it through the 72 hrs of hell and my first weekend, I don't think i've ever ate so much sugar in a 5 day period in my life.

I don't know if it was the best approach, but I laid low all weekend, didn't leave the house once. A part of me feels like that was a pussy ass thing to do in that I was just hiding from it. But another part of me feels that with all that was going on mentally, physically etc in a 5 day window it was a smart move.

While I didn't post much over the weekend, I was still here and reading a ton, just reading what was going on with you guys really helped to get me through some craves.

My head feels a little clearer this morning, and I feel a small sense of pride for coming out of the weekend still with 100% focus.

I'm proud to be a quitter with each and everyone of you. Quit Like Fuck today, and take it one day at a time.

Was pretty rough but had some fun with the wife and kids watching movies and eating a ton of food.bet I gained a few pounds over the weekend. Oh well better than chewin. Keep up the good work and let's stay quit. To hell with dip.

Anything that works is a good approach. Hanging around the house and keeping a low profile doesn't make you a pussy - it's the complete opposite. It makes you a bad mfer because you took the steps you felt neccesary to protect your quit. There's no shame in that bro! The first couple of weeks can be odd for sure b/c you are learning to live your life without dropping that poison in your lip at every opportunity. It's a monumental change - it took me WEEKS just to comprehend the fact that I was actually not dipping. You say you feel a sense of pride from making it through the weeked - you damn well should man! Congrats. I see too many people afraid to embrace the quit and the sense of accomplishment that goes with it. Too many "scared" quits as I call em. It's ok to celebrate your daily victories - it gives you confidence and it steels your resolve against any shenanigans the nic bitch tries to pull on you. Keep on point at all times and you'll continue to find success. Keep it up bro - you're doing great. I quit with you.

Don't you just love having full blown arguments with yourself. I just did for 12 blocks. FUCK YOU NIC BITCH...

I know the T is one of my triggers and it always will be, can't ignore it gotta get to work. But it was the same story every day, hour trip in, hour trip home, dip the whole way notice else to do.

It's 12 blocks from the door of my office to the front entrance of the T, there's a back entrance at the end of the 12th block. And low and behold a 7-11 sits there right across the street at the beginning of the 13th block.

I'm not going to lie I walked to that edge just not 15 minutes ago.

She wanted me to step out into that street and cross badly, my phone was in my hand and I was close to firing off some texts, but I tod myself to man the fuck up, you gots this and your not gonna let your quit brothers down.

Grant it I didn't hVe to reach out to any of you but just knowing you have my back meant I didn't have to this time, and for that I am grateful

Mr. Marshall,

I had one hell of a weekend (Nic/alcohol and porn free) I wasn't on the site except to post. I am so glad to see you are quit. You didn't let me down but you hurt my feelings. You are at war. (This isn't a fight on the playground. This is kill or be killed) If you have a gun in a war...use it. Your phone is the best weapon of war.

Man the fuck up is a good tough attitude but I am going to suggest something to you. It pisses me off when I am not invited to a fight! I hate the nic bitch! We all have battles. I learned if the thought isn't leaving quickly, make that call, send a text immediately!

Good on you for having grit but we are a team in this. You think I am going to think you are a pussy for letting me have a chance to chop block the nic bitch so that you can crush her head?

I can tell you are serious and can grind it out. My perspective is too many of us try to be tough. Don't be a ball hog. Sometimes you need to pass the ball so you can get in position for a better shot.

I trust the next time that whore whispers to you...if you entertain it for more that 10 seconds, you text me. Okay?

The only pussies here are the cavers that surrendered or tried to resist without making a call. At least get some cheerleaders to applaud you as you fight!

We all are addicts, we all will crave. Those that get that in their thick heads and aren't embarrassed to call will go undefeated with the nic bitch.

Proud of you JJ. Way to be strong..like MThomas said, don't think you're a pussy for reaching out, that what we're here for. Those vets perched at the top of the eagle's nest have reached I for damn sure bet.

Kinda goes against what the youth league coaches will tell you "it's not if you win or lose, it's how you play the game"----well first off...fuck that noise. It's either a W or an L!!!! Do what you have to do to get one more in the "win" column.

Quit with you in the a.m.

I am feeling really fucking good this morning. Since day 1 I have been having a second battle with myself to get off my ass and go RUN, and last night I finally did it. Probably the first time I went for a run for the hell of it in at least 10 years. And you know what. I am so fucking out of shape. HA, but I feel like sticking with it, it helps blow off the nic rage, and I would like to be able get back to running up and down a Lax field like I could 15 years ago.

Came across something else this morning that I just had to laugh at. Went into a pcoket of my work bag and found a whole stash of advil pills just sitting in the pocket. It was probably back in the spring that I had dumped them in there to use the pill bottle as a spitter. What a stupid fucking thing to do, I had no control apparently it was dip by any means necessary.

JJ I've used a pill bottle before too..more than once. I also used an empty chip bag (more than once), an empty snuff can (more than once)...nuts how that addiction had us bent over like that.

I used to spit in my old zip lock sandwich bags but the worst was spitting in an old 3/4 full spit bottle that sat in my car during the summer and getting that back splash of the old fermented spit everytime I spit. I was a complete moron and slave to the bitch. Keep on quittin !!!

I definitely want to puke thinking about the smell of a nasty ass spitter that's been roasting in the car *gag. By far the worst smell. There is probably one buried somewhere that I didn't find in my car. I should just drive it off a cliff and not risk it.

I found an old spit bottle in a drawer the other day along with a can of copenhagen long cut dated around Dec 2011 that had turned into copenhagen dust. I imagine I probably threw them in there to hide the shit from a family member or friends because I was a ninja dipper. I promptly threw that bottle and cope dust away. And no I was most certainly not going to test the smell of that bottle 'puking'

Freedom is so much better. Glad to be quit with you all today.

My poor wife. I love her to death and don't know how she ever forgave me.
We were driving on road trip. Without looking she grabbed my spitter and took a big ol swig. Pulled car over as she freakin hurled. I wouldn't do that to my worst enemy. (So sorry hunny) To this day she won't drink out of a bottle unless she opens it. That image gives me ammo for my quit. I still feel awful. thanks for reminding me of that one.....

Pitiful isn't it? I've spit down the inside front of my shirt before. I've spit on the floor behind clothing racks in the mall. I've spit in dark corners inside many buildings. I've spit on the floorboard of company vehicles. I've spit in plants that are in restaraunts. I have spit on the floor in darkly lit bars. The list could go on, but its humiliating enough already. What a fucking asshole!!!!!! What kind of person does shit like that? Apparently the kind I used to be......

The good news is that those days are long gone. We are quit gentlemen. We will not be spitting cancer slime anywhere anymore. Proud to be a part of this.

I had that happen to my wife also, not funny. I also had my daughter's hair fall into a spit cup I had placed on a table while she sat on my lap. No fun cleaning spit out of her hair while she just said "You have to quit that spitting stuff." It took me quite a while before I finally woke the fuck up and took back my life.

Oh my God, Big Dave, the empty cope can and the chip bag were staples for me when I dipping in the car. Amazing how often I did that even though both ended up in a disgusting mess. How many of you guys would find yourself swerving back and forth while driving, trying desperately to find something, anything, on the car floor to spit into?

Talk about disrespecting the wife - whenever I slipped a chew into my mouth in the living room, I used the potted plants as spittoons. I'd even crumble up my chew in the soil when I was finished.

God, what an asshole. I should take her Hawaii with all the money I'm saving by not dipping.

Amazing the things we would do. I would stuff empty water bottles under the seat and use one. Like others said, that nasty smell of one that had been sitting in the car, but heck, I'd still use it.

Another thing I've noticed, I am not having heartburn daily like I was while dipping.
