Title: Quitting
Post by: Joeykawu on February 23, 2018, 07:40:00 PM
My name is Joey,

I used to come onto the site about 4 years ago for my first quit.
I have since fallen back into the habit of dipping and this time around I want to make my
quit be about me stopping for me and take it more serious. When does the next quit group start?

Right now man. Get over to June and post roll.

Sending you my digits now so you can text me if you're going through the rough shit or anything. Make sure you got that extra layer of accountability for the personal side of this.

ThereÂ’s always an active Quit group!

Need to clarify though, did you have a profile 4 years ago or did you just poke around as a guest? If you had a profile, youÂ’ll need to come back with that.

I had a profile,
but I do not remember what email/username/password I used along with it

Ok, we should be able to track it down and get it reset if necessary. If you ever posted with the old profile, youÂ’ll probably have to use that one. If you never made any posts, Admins might let you keep this one.

Any idea what month you were in? Any quitters that you remember?

Joey,

Welcome back to the group.

Here are words of Wisdom to help you with your quit:


The main way to be successful is to just decide that you have quit. Once you stop the negotiating in your head as to whether you will do one more or not the rest becomes far more simple.

Next, learn to distract your attention from your desire for a dip to anything else that interests you. This ability to change your focus will guarantee your success and make your quit that much easier.

When you place a dip in your mouth, your brain releases sugars. Well, those sugars are now going to be gone.

However, you can replace them with OJ or other fruit juices with sugar. This will provide some comfort, especially on your initial quit days.

Make sure to exercise with weights and cardio when you feel that nagging tension in your muscles, you feel that rage, when you can not sleep and when you cannot focus. Exercise really helps.

Here is one that most people overlook. Get at least 3 square meals a day. Hunger can really bring on those urges. So squash those urges before they come. Eat full healthy meals and do not let yourself get excessively hungry. You will see this helps a great deal.

I waited until I was 59 quit after using tobacco for 40 years. You are wise to quit now.

I quit with you today.
