Title: N00B
Post by: duke_B_D on February 06, 2009, 12:46:00 PM
Whats up guys and gals, 4th day quitter as of now. I've been chewing solid for 3 years. I previously quit for about 3 months after chewing for about 2 years, but re-lapsed after I had a pretty bad crash on my sport bike.

The reason i'm quitting now is, i started chain chewing, i would ditch a chew and no later than 10 minutes i would have another in. They also got to be BIG dips too...I would go through a can in 2 days EASY. My gums and lips hurt so bad to just put a chew in, i would have to move it around to find a place that didn't hurt.

I just said FUCK IT! I'm tired of this crap. Always wanting a chew, wondering if i could get away with a chew in different places...just a constant HASTLE!

I'm 24 years old, avid motocross rider/racer, photographer, and have a beautiful girlfriend. I've got so much more to my life than a wad of worm dirt in my lip...

Thanks for this site! and thanks for the brotherhood.

awesome bro, keep your head up and just keep saying no everytime you feel like you're getting cravings. You don't need it to get thru the day, you can get thru the day just fine by yourself!!
I believe it takes about 3 days to free your body from nicotine, after that it's just about breaking the habit.

Wow it's amazing to find out that someone actually knows what it's like to have to try and find a new place to put your lipper so it doesn't hurt. My "pinches" turned into giant clobs of dirt; I was going through a can by noon.

Stay on top of the demon. Figure he'll die sooner or later.

Thanks guys!  if you guys want something to look at while you're farting around on the inter-web check out my website.  I'm a action and motorcross photographer locally.  I'm trying to get some magazine deals.  A friend of mine knows a guy who knows a guy at racer-X and playground mag.  Another reason to quit dipping is meeting potential clients at races with a wad of shit in my mouth doesnt look so hot!The site is www.zigphoto.com (http://www.zigphoto.com)  I'm working on a new layout for the site and will be up in a month or so.Thanks again!

Chris, you've obviously been able to quit for a year WITHOUT using the site. Hey good for you, really, I mean that. But how does the site work if you didn't use it? Please explain because I worry other new quitters may get the wrong idea.

I agree and have to emphasize to the new quitters that THE MOST important aspect of this site for my quit has been posting roll everyday - making the commitment to this community publicly "everyday" to not use nicotine. But congratulations to you Chris!!!! Keep on staying quit.
