I quit cold turkey on Dec 20, 2014. I dipped for nearly 25 years. When I quit I was going through 2 tins of skoal each day. I quit because I knew that I needed to and that my family comes first. I celebrated with my wife and 4 kids the day I quit.
Now I find myself alone and in Homer, Alaska, for a long weekend. It is beautiful though dreary here. I find myself wanting a dip in the worst way. I am writing this note to try to take my mind off my craving. I know that if I have even 1 dip that i will revert back to dipping. I know because I have tried to quit before. I believe I am a person who either dips or doesn't. There is no in between.
I know I can make it through this 3 day weekend without dipping and will be even stronger come Tuesday. Thank you for any good thoughts you send my way.

Glad you found yourself at KTC! Here we make a daily pledge not to use nicotine in any form by way of Posting Roll. Go over to the Welcome Center and familiarize yourself with this site. Everything might seem Greek at first with all the acronyms and such, but embrace it all and drink the kool-aid because it works! We are all addicts to nicotine-- the sooner you realize you are one the better.
Sounds like your reasons for caving, or giving up on your quit, is out of sheer boredom and because your family is not there for you to keep you accountable. Let me tell you there is not one reason to put that crap in your mouth. Trust me- You will thank yourself later. That thought of "My word is golden" at the end of the day is a better buzz than that neurotoxin could ever be.
So.. Post roll and honor your word. You are apart of the April 2015 Pre-Hall of Fame Apes. Read, read, and read some more, and don't be shy! This site changes and saves lives, but you get out of it what you put in. I will be looking for you on Roll Call. PM me if you need any help.
