Title: The end...
Post by: Sqwatch on August 31, 2011, 11:25:00 AM
Hello to all!

I have been using snuff for 34 years..... I have quit a couple times but never for more than 2-3 months. I have several areas in my throat and mouth that we (my Dr.  I) keep a very close eye on... so, this is the end of my addiction to snuff!

Wrong. This is not the end of the addiction. You will be addicted the rest of your life.

And you are NOT addicted to snuff...you are addicted to nicotine in any form.

You will quit 1 day at a time like the rest of us.

Welcome Sqwatch,
I was a near 20 year user, and I dipped every waking hour. Im 27 days quit now and all the credit goes to KTC. If it wasn't for this site I wouldn't have made it a day. Their plan works. Post roll daily and have fellow quitters hold you accountable. If you need any help in your quit give me a shout. As stated get numbers from as many folks as possible, but also give your number to them. I started out just taking numbers and didn't understand the importance of giving my number to others.

Make sure you understand the enemy. Nicotine is the enemy and must be avoided in all forms. Patches, gum, smokes, suppositories.... I think you get the picture.

Knowledge is power, spend some time and read everything you can on the site. I will send you some information to help you along.

Welcome to the party !

STAY QUIT
Greg

Squatch, I want to add my voice to what Greg and MikeA have said.

We are, every last one of us here, DRUG ADDICTS.

Say it with me, WE ARE ADDICTS. Say it as many times to yourself as you need for it to sink in totally. When your mouth and throat sores heal, you're STILL going to be an addict.

You will always be a drug addict. So will I. So will Greg and MikeA and the rest. For us, the addiction will never end.

What has ended is our use of nicotine. And all of the pain and expense and fear and self-loathing, all the lying and spitting and spilling. We CHOOSE to be free of nicotine. We ACKNOWLEDGE we will never be free of addiction.

That acknowledgement is critically important for a Quitter, as is our commitment each day not to use nicotine.

Glad to see you posted roll today. You have a long road ahead of you. We're not here to help make quitting easy. We're here to help make it successful. See you at roll call tomorrow.

Hey Squatch! I am on day 2 and am in the December roll team. Come join us! I gave 20 years to the bitch, now no more. I woke up yesterday, got in the car for my commute and said What the F@#$ am I doing? It sucks right now, I know that. I am told it gets better. I will know tomorrow if it does get better. But for today, I am done.
