Title: Quit for myself
Post by: Tnvol on October 14, 2016, 12:57:00 PM
Good morning/afternoon everybody. I'll go by Tnvol here, as I'm a big Tennessee Volunteers fan. I'm an even bigger fan of not dying though. I've been a slave and an addict for 8 years now, and I just can't take it anymore. The dip had taken control of my life, and I was at the end of my rope 9 days ago. I've tried to quit before. In fact, I can't count how many time's I've attempted to quit. Just like all of you can attest I'm sure, I'd always find that ridiculous reason why I had to go to the gas station and pick up a can. I would even buy a can, take a dip, and dump the rest out the window because this was my last time... until the next day when I'd repeat the process. I hid it from my wife. When she asks why it takes me so long in the bathroom, it's not really because "that's where I get all my thinking done," it was because I was an addict in there. There have been so many times where I just wanted to quit but never could. For example, I'll quit on Christmas. No, New Years is a better date to quit I'll quit on new years. New Years comes and goes and I'm still dipping, so I'll just quit on my birthday because that would be a good birthday gift to me. Birthday comes and goes and I'm still dipping, well I'll just quit on my wife's birthday in a few weeks because that would be an even better gift, etc etc. It was a never ending cycle.

I'm now quit 8 days. I just can't mentally put myself through this double life anymore. I haven't used in 8 days and honestly haven't felt an urge to, because all I feel is regret for what I've done to my body and my family for so long. I'm truly ashamed of myself. I'm here now because I need the support. I want to be like you all, and now I am. I'm 100% dedicated to never picking up a can again.

Morning TNVol.....if you didn't cave yesterday watching that game with 'Bama, (sorry it was a bad joke, but hey!!) then you've got a really good chance of being quit forever!! Congrats on the 10 days (double digits!!). Take the time to celebrate the small victories!!

It does get better, but be prepared for some rough patches even well into your quit!

Everybody, thank you for your support. I know we're strangers right now, but it's nice to have you all in my corner all with the same goal in mind. By the way, that game yesterday was embarrassing for Tennessee. I didn't expect a win, but I didn't expect a blowout either. Alabama will go 15-0 this season.

I hope you're better at quitting than you are about prognosticating College Football.... There's this game called the Iron Bowl that I'm hoping a certain team has something in store for the boys from Tuscaloosa...

CavMan,

I actually drove down to Auburn from Nashville a few weeks back for the Auburn/LSU game. Jordan Hare is an awesome stadium we had a lot of fun. I remember watching that kick 6 on TV a few years back that's got to be one of the greatest college football moments of all time.
