Title: Quitting
Post by: shadow on April 14, 2010, 10:30:00 AM
It's time to quit. After about 20 years, I took my last dip last night. I'm quitting for myself, for my health, for a better life without that crap in it.

I used to not chew that much, would go to the dentist regularly and always got a clean bill of health. For some reason, the last few years I had increased my use of it and it has affected my health. I wanna get back to the old me and since I obviously can't handle "a little now-n-then" the only way is all the way. So today I begin my quit. I want this quit. I need this quit. This is something that I must do.

You are right, we addicts cannot have just a little, from now on you cannot even have just 1. Your brain will say that just 1 won't hurt but remember, zero won't hurt either.
Go to the July group and post roll with them, here's how (http://forum.killthecan.org/index.php?showtopic=50)

Get active with your quit group and fill your phone up with numbers of fellow quitters. It makes it that much harder to cave!!! My number is a PM away if you need one!!
