So I've been dipping for around 10 years off and on. Started when I was 16. I'm now 26. And I'm starting to get sick of it. Grizzly Wintergreen was my dip of choice for the past 6 years so far. I like the act of dipping, but I just don't want to get cancer.
Thinking of getting some fake dip off amazon since I have a gift card. Looking at the the Golden Eagle Wintergreen. What does everybody think of that or would you recommend a different kind? Though I just feel like that is the cheap way out and I'm going to be better off stopping straight up with nothing else.
Hope all is well with everybody.

Welcome to the site.
Do you want to know what is more effective than Golden Eagle Wintergreen? Participating in our site. To do so read this: http://killthecan.org/community/welcome.asp (http://killthecan.org/community/welcome.asp)
That link will summarize our methodology. In short, we "post roll" every morning and quit 1 day at a time. You can quit for a day can you not?
Post roll and I will promise you this, you will have more support than you can imagine. You can even supplement it with Golden Eagle Wintergreen.
So, what say you? You want to quit with me today?

Um, pretty damn wishy washy there, sport.
When you're DONE getting sick of it, let us know.
When you DON'T like the act of dipping, let us know.
This place is for Quitters, not vacillators.

Yes, welcome indeed. It doesn't sound like you are quit from your intro post, maybe you can clarify. Have you flushed ALL your horse turd? Read what Sco posted below, dump your crap (all of it) and then go post day 1. Go into LIVE CHAT (upper right) for some great advice, motivation, or distraction, depending on your mood. Above all else, let's get your quit going. When have zero nicotine in ANY form (no patches, gum, or pills) then come. Join our group of fellow quitters. You promise every day and we will walk with you. I did it 96 days ago. I'm at the airport right now hammering this out on my phone. Normally I'd be freaking out because I just dumped my can inthe trash because I didn't want some TSA agent to pull it out and have my family find out I dip. It's sick. Instead I'm sitting here, enjoying the sweet taste of freedom. I don't need to go hide inthe corner for a feeding. It can be done there are thousands here that have done it. Are doing it. Join us, we're happy to have you.

I finished my tin this morning actually. So I haven't had a dip since I got to work. I don't have an issue with it while I'm actually doing something. But I know once I get home in a bit, I'm going to want to dip bad.
I've told myself numerous times I'm done. I've dumped my tins out, only to go buy another one an hour later. I've told myself I'm only going to do it when driving, or doing this, or doing that, and it never works. I don't like to do it around people anymore as I feel it's just dirty. I put one and most of the time 10 minutes later I feel like I'm going to be sick by the taste.
It may seem like I'm not done just because I said I still like it, but I know what I want, and dip is not it. The plans I have for my life, I would like it to be dip free.
If it doesn't seem like I want to quit with what I've written than I don't know what to tell you. A few weeks ago, I never thought I could bring myself to sign up for a site like this. Thought I could do it on my own. But as time passed, I realized I couldn't since I turned around and bought a tin whenever I'd go a day or so.
Starting tomorrow, I want to be nicotine free. I'll be here every damn hour if I have to talking to somebody to get me past wanting to go buy a tin and live life where I never think about it again.
Thank you for the responses.

Reread the welcome link. I think I gave it to you but it is the salmon link at the top of the page. You will post roll in December 2011 group in the quit groups section of our site. Love to have you here!

Nice day 1. Congrats. pm me if you need any help! You can count on me.

Thanks a lot, Sco. I have a feeling the mornings are going to suck the most. Right when I wake up, I put one in. I'll be here tomorrow though.
-

It may. You never have to do this again. Embrace the suck. Trust me, it is well worth it.

Congrats Timeless, you can do this. A lot of people will say Embrace the Suck. They are right. The first few days will suck, but what are a few days? After that, the days start accumulating and you will beat this shit. Every one of us were completely hooked on nic and every one of us had the same reservations that you do. If we can do this, you can do this. You don't want this shit to rule your life and one day end it. You have already made the toughest step, now you can just start piling up the days. One day at a time, you can do this. Stay on this site a lot. My first 3 weeks I was on here constantly, it really helps to be with people who understand what you are going through. I am proud to quit with you.
-
If the mornings are tough for you then I'd suggest posting your roll first thing after you wake up. That's your promise and that's also what will carry you to freedom.
Glad to have you here. Check your inbox.

Don't feel like making a new thread, so maybe somebody will check this one out again.
I'm so stressed out. I moved to a new area for a job that I was 100% sure I had even though I hadn't signed a contract yet or anything. Spent just about all my money getting myself here. My future boss got a DUI, and I think I'm out of a job again. I have a few interviews today. But it's not looking good for me. Maybe that's just my negative thinking. These jobs, should I get one, will at least provide money, and that's what I need right now.
This is the third time my potential dream job(really want to to fly in the Navy) will have fallen through for me. It's my second day quit, and good thing I can't afford a new tin, otherwise I would have bought one when I woke up.
Sigh.

You just have to think positive! Dip won't make any of life's problems easier! Just keep keep plugging away at the jobs and one will open up for ya! If you need to kill some time get onto the live chat section here.......I used it alot my first 5 days!

You posted your day 2. Awesome.
Ok, I am not judging you. I am just going to lay it out to you straight and honest. Your text is huge, huge addict talk. I should know, I am a drug addict. I am not surprised that on day 2 of your nicotine withdrawal you are stressed out. I am not surprised that when a sucky situation presented it self you are thinking. Damn, if I only had a dip. ADDICT. ADDICT. ADDICT. Coping with stress by ingesting nicotine. ADDICT. ADDICT. ADDICT.
I want you to do three things.
1. Read your ass off today. Hall of Fame speeches, words of wisdom and start with your group from the beginning. New groups are funny as hell. Notice that others that were on day 2 were fucking crazy? Yea, they are ADDICTS too.
2. If you have nothing to do today when you are not reading hang close the introductions. When new folks come in welcome them. Tell them you are on day two and become their quit buddy.
3. I want you to get a quit Sherpa. When you read, if you find someone that you kinda "get" send them a PM and ask for their number. Hell, you can ask me for my number.
I get it that things suck for you. Turn this into a great moment. The moment when things sucked but you rose above your circumstances and kicked the nic bitch to the gutter. You can do this. I know you can. I am not sure you know you can though. So lets review.
YOU DO HAVE A JOB TODAY:
Read
Greet and Serve
Quit Sherpa.
Now, go kick some ass. Be a pilot and fly this fucking plane.
-
My advise:
Live for today!
There are 2 days in every week you can't worry about, and that's yesterday tomorrow....you can't change what happened yesterday and you can't control what will happen tomorrow.
-
This is the longest I've gone in the last 6 years without a dip. Stressed out, but I'm owning this quit. Sitting in the library right now searching for jobs. Have had a few emails back so far, and hoping that by this time next week I can be employed.
As Sco said, I know it's my addiction talking trying to get me to go buy a tin. I'm not going to give into the shitty urge.
I'm not just here for myself, but for everybody else. I've got this and will own it.
Take this by hour/minute/second if I have to just so I can make it to the end of the day.

That's the fucking spirit. Grab that nic bitch by the couchie one minute at a time if you have to. You can...YOU WILL FIGHT. You will not succumb to that evil heathen. You are mighty. Good quitting up in here. Damn good to see.
-
Made it two days now. Awesome! My body feels like it's falling apart. Did anybody else get sick their first night or two? It's been happening for like the past hour now.
Time to try and go to sleep after this South Park episode. Forget about dipping for the night.

That's exactly what you need to do...quit with the end in mind...not the end as in forever, but the end of the day. Your bed is your home plate...make your promise each morning that you will not put that shit into your body today and your goal will be sliding into home nic-free. Every person on this site has been where you are now...some have been there quite a few times...but the point is that we know where you are, and it gets better. Work your quit minute by minute if you have to, whatever it takes. In the next couple days the nicotine will be completely out of your system and from that point on it's totally a mind game. If you have the will to stand up and tell the nic-bitch to fuck off, each and every day, there will be a thousand guys standing up right along side you doing the exact same thing. We're all in this together.
You got this, and we've got your back. Stay strong... 'archer'
-
Somedays it'll take your own strong will, sometimes you'll have to borrow a cup from someone else. Don't be ashamed to reach out, we all have/had those days.

God damn 9 days ago signing up for this site seemed like forever ago. Hell of a difference it has made so far. Barely thought I would make it those first few days of withdrawal. But I'm here to stay. One day at a time.

So it's been 21 days today. Been thinking a lot of about the addiction part. As much as I know I cannot dip anymore because I am addicted to it and have been for years now, there are days where it plays with my emotions that I'm not. To me with dip, it's all or nothing. I've tried only doing it once or twice a day. Days that end in day, so on and so on. I know if I start up again, I'll fall into an even worse habit and who knows when the hell I'd come out of that.
I just hate feeling like that something like a plant controlled me. Made me have just one more. Not be able to put it down for more than a few hours. All signs of addiction imo. I just have to overcome it.
-
I have been bitch free for seven days. She still comes and talks to me and tells me i love her. There is times i think i do, but then i realize its just the nic bitch trying to get back into my life. I dont want her back.

I always read your stuff because you are important to me. Great job on 3 weeks. Read this. http://www.killthecan.org/robs/law.asp (http://www.killthecan.org/robs/law.asp). Keep it up. You just finished a huge milestone.
Here is what is next.
Days 20 - 50 - You're winning. Life isn't great, but you probably had a couple of nights where you actually got some sleep. You might notice you're going to bed earlier than you normally do. Not staying up to get in that last dip. You may notice some sores in your mouth. You're thinking, "great, I quit dipping and now I have cancer." You almost certainly don't. Your mouth is healing itself. Tiny ulcers you've had for a long time are healing. We recommend you visit your dentist around the 30 day mark. Don't be a pansy, just do it. He or she will be very supportive and they can explain the sores much better than we can. Don't let your guard down. Don't go out drinking with the fellas or the girls. We also recommend that you don't drink for at least the first 50 days. Drinking is a huge trigger event and it weakens your resolve.

Congrats on your 21 days.
You are about to hit a major funk.
The 20s are filled with hatred of chew, and a rebellion of your mind trying to tell you that you don't need to post roll everyday. There's a lot of bullshit on this site, but 90% of it is distraction.
This is the time that you will feel most insecure about your quit. That little bitch will be whispering in your ear that you don't need to post everyday; that this site causes more drama than what it helps; that you can do this on your own.
Remind yourself everyday. Post roll, stay quit, and repeat.
If you need to leave the bullshit alone for a week, so be it. But post roll at costs.

So last night I tried to mention that I felt like my addiction was starting to get the best of me and how I felt like I was going to get sick of this site after a while. I won't need to be here. Fuck that. Stupid talk sure, but it's been something that's been weighing on me the past few days.
It's been 31 days of my longest actual quit that I've ever had. 31 days longer than when being serious, in fact. While I may feel like shit, I know there are better days ahead. I know the bitch won't be standing on my shoulder 24/7 like she is.
One can only hope to have the length or stability of some of the people that have posted in this thread. One day at a time. All I can do.

Timeless, I consider you in the inner-circle of our little ring of early quitters for the December HOF. If you even think about sucking on a turd, I will be very upset.
Perhaps you should go to youtube, and search for:
killthecan.
Watch the maddipper videos, and find out what happens if you cave.
Funny shit, but it'll keep you quit.
Stay strong bro. I'm with you.

I've tried only doing it once or twice a day. Days that end in day, so on and so on. I know if I start up again, I'll fall into an even worse habit and who knows when the hell I'd come out of that.
I just hate feeling like that something like a plant controlled me. Made me have just one more. Not be able to put it down for more than a few hours. All signs of addiction imo. I just have to overcome it.
Congrats on your 21 days.
You are about to hit a major funk.
The 20s are filled with hatred of chew, and a rebellion of your mind trying to tell you that you don't need to post roll everyday. There's a lot of bullshit on this site, but 90% of it is distraction.
This is the time that you will feel most insecure about your quit. That little bitch will be whispering in your ear that you don't need to post everyday; that this site causes more drama than what it helps; that you can do this on your own.
Remind yourself everyday. Post roll, stay quit, and repeat.
If you need to leave the bullshit alone for a week, so be it. But post roll at costs.
So last night I tried to mention that I felt like my addiction was starting to get the best of me and how I felt like I was going to get sick of this site after a while. I won't need to be here. Fuck that. Stupid talk sure, but it's been something that's been weighing on me the past few days.
It's been 31 days of my longest actual quit that I've ever had. 31 days longer than when being serious, in fact. While I may feel like shit, I know there are better days ahead. I know the bitch won't be standing on my shoulder 24/7 like she is.
One can only hope to have the length or stability of some of the people that have posted in this thread. One day at a time. All I can do.
And the PTSD doggy is back
Timeless, I consider you in the inner-circle of our little ring of early quitters for the December HOF. If you even think about sucking on a turd, I will be very upset.
Perhaps you should go to youtube, and search for:
killthecan.
Watch the maddipper videos, and find out what happens if you cave.
Funny shit, but it'll keep you quit.
Stay strong bro. I'm with you.
I got this man. Just a funk I've been in lately. As I said I can only control today. I've signed roll so my word is to remain dip free. And I will keep it that way till midnight and start all over.
Gotta watch out for Maddipper. Give me one of these and one of theeese.
Thank you all. Would not have made anywhere near 32 days without my quit group and this site.

Find the funk, feel the funk, fuck the funk! It's a funk fucking party up in here!

Feeling good today. These are the days that I live for. Makes it all the better when I get through a bitch of a crave all weekend long.
My addiction was trying to talk me into some BS like leaving like the site. I'm here to stay. One day at a time.

Focus on the guy who is not the addict. That dude is the one that has a place here. I bet he's a pretty decent guy.

I know what you mean. Treasure today.
Nicotine will try to create a problem that is insurmountable. Quitting forever or some other huge problem that creates that urge to cave.
Keep doing what you are doing. Breaking it down in to easy 1 day at a time small chunks. Focus on making quitting easier. One post at a time. One day at a time. I promise you, it will ease up.
At some point you will laugh at crave.

Day 54 and things keep getting better. Finally going to have my first real good night since I've quit. And I don't need to dip anymore with my girlfriend. First time she has seen me since I quit.
Now I'm just ready for a nap since I'm going to be up all night. I know you all wish you could be with me. It's okay.

Two days away from the HOF. Watched the Giants lay down today like the bitches they are and now watching Tebow and the Broncos beat up the patriots. Have had 2 bad days worth of cravings, but I got through them. Things have gotten a hell of a lot easier and time is flying by now. I got my school taken care of and I'm good to start come this January and begin getting into my classes and career. Now I just need to find a better job that will work with my schedule and my life will be all set.
I've finally gotten to the point where unless I have a real bad craving, I don't think about dip. It's been nice.
Here's to the next two days.

Thank you everybody for your words. I can't say that I'll post till 200. But I can say that I will post one day at a time until I don't feel like I'm an addict anymore. Which will be never.

Here's to day 100. A big milestone for the newbies that stick it out and want it, but ultimately just another day in the life of your quit. Day 100 and I still get craves and want to dip sometimes. I don't think its going to go away for a while, but at least I know I'm strong enough to deal with them and get through it with the people that have been right there with me going through it before me or still waiting to hit the day I'm on.
great attitude, my friend. thinking like that will save your life.

FROM THIS:
So I've been dipping for around 10 years off and on. Started when I was 16. I'm now 26. And I'm starting to get sick of it. Grizzly Wintergreen was my dip of choice for the past 6 years so far. I like the act of dipping, but I just don't want to get cancer.
Thinking of getting some fake dip off amazon since I have a gift card. Looking at the the Golden Eagle Wintergreen. What does everybody think of that or would you recommend a different kind? Though I just feel like that is the cheap way out and I'm going to be better off stopping straight up with nothing else.
Hope all is well with everybody.

I've gone back and read over my first few messages a couple times as time went by. Such a difference from where I was then to where I am now.
I could have never imagined I'd be doing this well nicotine free feeling and knowing that I'm never going back to it so long as I do my duty here and use the phone numbers when shit hits the fan.
See kids, if you actually want it bad enough and follow what people say, it too will work for you. Cliche as it might be, if I can do it or the people below me can do it, anybody can do it.
Thank you again everyone.

Time I like you. I like that you see the simplicity in the approach...in our approach. And that it is not magic. There's no special sauce. It starts with a single voice inside saying "I quit". Its actually hearing that voice and believing that that voice is YOU saying that you are quit. And that voice is definitely in each of us. Its just a matter of whether you want to believe that its you saying it.

All compliment. The capitalization is the "you" inside..your being. Not like me saying "YOU are ghey" which I have yet to determine.
I quit with you bro.

I haven't felt like dipping as much as I do now since my first few days. Just a whole bunch of shit going on. Not much I can do about it other than put my nose down and find myself a new job. Just sick of it all fall apart right when its set to get better lately. I need out of this area, but until I can graduate I'm stuck.
154 days though today. 54 since I've been in this thread. Seems like just yesterday I was hitting the HOF.

Stay strong. A dip isn't gone fix shit. You know that. And at the risk of sounding ghey in front of all of these ghuys, I give you a lot of shit Scott, but I do care brotha. You know how to get ahold of me if you need to.

I haven't felt like dipping as much as I do now since my first few days. Just a whole bunch of shit going on. Not much I can do about it other than put my nose down and find myself a new job.

Those hard times just keep on lingering. It's really starting to wear on me. I need to have a conversation with somebody that I told them it was important. But yet it's been 3 days and each day I get more and more annoyed. I'm really to just give in and say fuck it all. Not dip but with everything else. Although I will say wanting to buy a tin crossed my mind more than once at walmart when I was checking out earlier. Sigh

Stay the course. Even this will pass. The thought crossing your mind is normal, acting on that thought is pointless. Stay strong, both in your quit and up against whatever demons your dealing with.

The world loves to shit on a quitter Time. You got a plan of defense bro? Sounds like GMann's got your back. You need more? Put my name down. There might be a quitter or two that would also join in.

So I'm gonna do some thinking the rest of the day and see where my mind ends up. I feel like its time to a break for a little while. I just don't know how long that will last since aside from work, school, and talking to my girl everyday this is really the only interaction I get. So that's the only thing I'm hesitant about. Guess we'll see how things turn out.

time, it depends on what you mean from taking a break. taking a break from KTC when you're in the middle of a nic bitch shit storm isn't a good idea. hell, it's never a good idea, but especially now. if you feel like everything around you is crumbling, you need SOMETHING that is a touchstone to let you know that "normal" still exists. Your normal no longer involves nicotine, and that needs to remain firmly planted in your mind.
this is when the nic biotch loves to come a-callin'. she can smell when you're at your weakest point and knows it even when you don't. her kryptonite is your resolve, which is fed and strengthened by this site.
I've been exactly where you are. i had a MAJOR funk at 160 that lasted about 2 weeks. it was brutal. it is also now a distant memory. this too will pass.
check your inbox for my numbers. use them at will.

You have so many tools at your disposal.
Please don't turn your back on them.
There is no time requirement here at the ktc. Sometimes, a roll post will surfice for the day. Sometimes, you have to fight 30 for post whore status.
The only person that can decide how much time you need to spend here is you. If you are strong, then all is well. However, these posts look like cries for help. They look like you are backing back into a can.
Life can be testing sometimes, but it's up to you to do right by yourself.
A wise man (ok...Monty Python's Flying Circus) stated that the meaning of life is that people should be happy with what they have and stop longing for what they can't have. This longing breaks down their happiness and the perception of their blessed reality. Or, they should wear more hats.
Wear more hats my boy.

might i suggest and im sure waste will back me on this one but straying too far away from the site would be a bad idea... it just cracks that door open again after you think you have it tightly closed
after 500 days i thought i would be ok getting away from the site and we all see where that put me, back at a day 1 post
youre still an addict and always will be

Starting to feel a little bit better. Know I need to make some changes in my personal, business, and whatever life individually. But those will come.
Today's the first day on this site that I've actually felt like I've taken advantage of what it has to offer since I was brand new. Feels good

nice.
way to use this place, and accept the wisdom that was thrown about. it is a two part process, and you did both.
continue to stick around. the one common component for all post-HoF caves is that each person drifted away from the site. i'm sure there are some/many that have drifted away that stayed quit, but damned near 100% (if not 100%) of the HoFers that post on a daily basis stay quit.
why risk it?
-
It's been a month since I've written in here and things overall seem to be getting better. I've still had times where I feel like caving and think that one dip would be nice. But I know if I go down that road I may never come back from it. I've tried the just one and it's never worked out. It would last maybe a day and I'd be right back in line buying another tin to have just one until it keeps adding up when I'm dipping a full tin again. Though it's been a while since I've felt like that, I need to keep being vigilant in my quit and being active in this site.

I have to go see a urologist and see if I can get a plasma glucose test. I really hope that I do not have diabetes since that's what an md and another person that I was staying with have said I should go get tested for. This sucks. I'm really nervous about it even though there's really nothing I can do about it till then if I even have to take the test.

Boss is hooking me up with one of his friends that owns a blood testing lab. Gonna get a glucose panel and go from there. Might have to go see an endocrinologist depending on the results. Not a urologist. I hope not.
Long weekend but I'm not stressing much about it anymore since if I have it, nothing I can do about it other then do what needs to be done to keep it under wraps.

Hey.
You leave my cousin alone.
On a serious note, Time, we're all pulling for you. What does having it entail? What type of lifestyle change do you need to make?

I am an optomist and always will be and here is a quote that I have used other times before maybe it can help you.....
"Everything ends like we want or well, in fact if its not like we want or well then it hasnt ended yet."
Take care brother

Damn, that's your cousin? I guess I shouldn't tell you about all the unspeakable things I've done to her. Woops 'embarrassed'
I gotta fast for 8 hours and then they'll check my glucose levels. If they're high then I'm going to sent to an endocrinologist for diabetes since thats what the two doctors I've spoken to think I have. Type 2 wouldn't be so bad. It's just a change of diet and exercise and taking a pill or two everyday. Keeping it under wraps and it'll pretty much go away on its own. If its type 1, well that's a completely different story and one I don't want to think about until I hear those words.
-
I called like 30000000000000 doctors today and finally got an appointment to see somebody. Was lucky as shit to get one for today. Really hope they can give me an answer today. And not the one I do not want to here.
This sucks. So stressed out right now. A dip would be nice. But 212 days is far too long of a time to go back now.

Brother, know that I feel for you.
Stay with us through this.
I'm quit with you today I'll be proud to be quit with you tomorrow.
In the meantime, dig on this awhile.
Troubles will come and go...
Suckiness endures...
So too though, does the epic badassery of good judgment.
Continue to use yours here, bro.
My number is in your PM and it's for you to use if you need it.

My gradmother had diabetis. She managed it with diet alone.
Tough woman. Had ten kids. First five on the farm. Second five in the hospital.
She chopped wood until she was in her 70's. Lived to be 91.
Prayers with you Time, but you can make it through this.
And you don't want diabetis AND cancer, do you?
Didn't think so...

Got a full blood work up today, they took my urine. Hope they enjoy the little present I left in my urine. Now I gotta play the boring and long ass waiting game. They need to hurry up with these tests.

Don't get so fucking stressed. Diabetes is treatable not curable but treatable. There are a shit load of people out there living with it, but you will have to Change your avatar no cup cakes. Go luck man stay strong and seriously quit stressing

Day 239 and I have been craving like no fucking other lately when I'm in the OR. I got my acceptance letter into the program I'm going to school for today, so that was nice. Just gotta confirm and come this August I begin classes to get my nuclear med and x-ray tech licenses. This job hunt sucks. I need to get another job or a new one. But nobody is fucking calling back. At least everything but my job has finally come together from the first day that I signed up on this site.
I had to buy a new laptop since my other one decided to become a piece of shit. I'm installing Civilization IV and I'm going to go to town and start wars with other countries. I cannot wait for this to finish and let me play.

Took a drug test today. Gonna pass that. Start my new job and this last year of hell will be complete. Finally got my life turned around after losing everything last September. Only took 11 months, but it's been well worth it. Now all I need to do is graduate college next October and I'll good to go.

Glad to hear you got your shit in a pile!
Most people who subscribe to High Times can't pass the drug test though...good luck!

Don't forget to focus on the good parts of life. We get all caught up on the negative when there is a lot of positive to always be thankful for.

Got a lot going on that is stressing me out lately. But I'm quit. Nothing in that regards has changed. Life keeps moving on and I keep quitting. Although the ride has been rougher on some days than others, I still wouldn't change being quit for anything right now. Even if I'm craving a dip like no other currently.
I've stopped before for this amount of time, but the one big difference is that I know this time I am quit for good.
Thanks to all who have helped or been on this site. Wouldn't be anywhere near where I am today without any of you all.

Glad you stayed here and participated. I have the opportunity and privilege to quit with you.

Got a lot going on that is stressing me out lately. But I'm quit. Nothing in that regards has changed. Life keeps moving on and I keep quitting. Although the ride has been rougher on some days than others, I still wouldn't change being quit for anything right now. Even if I'm craving a dip like no other currently.

Not over dip at all. Just a lot of self reflecting bs.

Cannot believe I am 5 days away from hitting 500. Seems like just yesterday I was posting up my first day. Craves keep getting less and less. Had another nicotine dream last night. I was smoking cigs in this one. Hate is when its cigs, well same for dip, but cigs are so much grosser I think. I woke up didn't even have a second thought of craving at all. Unlike my last few that I've had.
-
Day 511 today. Feeling freaking great. Been a few weeks since I've had a big crave. Been a while since I've even thought of nicotine when awake and conscious. However this past month I have had about 6 or so smoking dreams. And I really do not understand it. I freaking hate cigarettes. It has not made me crave or anything like that. Just been pissing me off that I went 6+ months without a nic dream and they seem to be coming back in full force. Though all I can do is keep posting roll and being involved with site like I am. Here's to hoping that they finally stop soon.
-
Hello I have just signed up and I'm ready to quit I haven't had a chew all day and I'm going crazy I don't know if I can do this

Welcome Bowhuntr. I'll quit with you for sure.
Been a few days since my last smoking dream. It's nice. Had my first crave in weeks yesterday. Thought about going to get a tin of fake dip. But decided against it since I'd rather remain quit with that too. Only lasted a few minutes and wasn't too bad. But kept on trying to toss it to the side but it didn't seem like it wanted to go anywhere. Here's to a better day today!

Longest I've gone since January 1st without having a nic/cig dream. Hopefully that means they're done for some time. Would be nice

Been a while since I've written in here. On day 573 today and I have not had a craving like I do right now in some time. I don't know whats causing it, but I woke up and the first thing that I thought of was how badly I wanted a dip. Maybe I had a dip dream that I don't remember last night. But I've put in like 3 different dips of the Jakes Mint that I got. I tried going for a walk to take my mind off of it, but nothing seems to work right now. It is stressing me out to no end right now. I posted roll today so there is no going back to dip, so at least I got that goin' for myself right now.

Thanks guys. I threw that bitch to the side and came out on top like I have for the last 579 days. I show her who is boss and she goes off running crying cause she can't handle the toughness that I show her.

Thank God this week is over. Long fucking week at school to cap it off with a shitty test today. Gonna take this weekend to sleep the entire time, get my head on straight and rock these next two weeks of classes out and get my grade up to where I want it to be. Two more weeks and then my spring break arrives. Got a fun one night trip to Savannah planned with my girl to end it and then on to my clinical rotations for 2 months.
Time to make some changes in regards to how I go about my school and some other things in my life. I'm stressed out from school, but other than that things are going great.
-
Woke up on day 580 today feeling a lot less stressed out than I was yesterday which is nice. Went and got my front brakes changed so 95 dollars later at least I'm safe once again in my car so that's good.
Been posting more and and more in intro threads and getting more involved with helping out the newer people. Getting back to what I did at first but have been slipping with. Feels good.
Think I convinced one of my friends at school to quit dipping today. Doubt he's going to join the site, but hopefully I got him to at least quit. He recently started dipping within the last year. So been trying to get him to see that he doesn't want it to turn into a 12 year habit like me or even longer like a lot of people on this site.

Can't believe I didn't come on here on day 600. Well I'm on day 629 now. Didn't sleep worth a shit last night. Want to go to sleep now but feel like I'm going to be up asleep till like 3 and that is just going to mess up my sleeping cycle.
6 more days till I celebrate my second birthday quit. This year has flew by. Had some bad craves a few weeks ago. Almost caved. But got through it. Not before I didn't call anybody like the moron that I am when I should have. But tis all better now.

Timeless, 629,, wow! You know,, i've seen your avatar a few times,, but i never really looked at it until today. That poor, poor dog. I get it though,, very good avatar. I wish you wouldn't tell me your getting craves after 600 days,, i'm sorta hoping after day 108, which i'm on now, i never have a crave again. I guess that's out of the question now. Maybe it will happen after day 630. We'll see. I quit with you all day Time.

Kdip was telling me he got a crave the other day at day 1700 something. But I will tell you, at either 629 or 1700 something the craves become a lot easier to toss to the side and just get rid of it right away. So you got that to look forward to.

Have had such a shitty past almost week or so lately. It's been stressing me out so much. I've barely ate, it's hard to concentrate on school, and I just don't want to do anything. Yet it's all my doing so it shouldn't be bothering me like this. But hey at least I'm still quit, so I got that goin' for me.

What bugging you Timeless? Reach out if you need anything. And remember, "one problem + dipping = __________)". Fill in the blank.
It is refreshing to finally realize the life is not always perfect, and it doesn't have to be. And we don't need nicotine to somehow make the bad times better. That is just the addict lie.

Hey timeless hope today's the best Father's day you ever had. Call / text / PM you've got my digits

I don't really want to get into it right now. It's just me being an idiot and at the time thought it was going to ruin the best thing to ever happen to me(and no I don't mean ruining my quit).
But I woke up at like 530 today and got into a lot of thinking since it took me a little while to fall back to sleep. I need to make changes in my life. I've said it a thousand times, but this time its dire and I need to be serious about it. Maybe this thinking is just because I'm stressed out and not feeling so great, but seems to me like my life is crashing down hard right now.
I need to start a journal and write down everything that I want to change/how I'm going to do it/ and what the end result I want to be. And then keep udating it and reading about my progress.
Thanks for all the messages. Dip is not going to do any good for me, though it was the first time since I quit that I went through a really shitty life experience and dip was the last thing on my mind. I went to the gas station earlier to get a drink and fill my car up and I was shooting lazers at the tins of death.

I don't really want to get into it right now. It's just me being an idiot and at the time thought it was going to ruin the best thing to ever happen to me(and no I don't mean ruining my quit).
But I woke up at like 530 today and got into a lot of thinking since it took me a little while to fall back to sleep. I need to make changes in my life. I've said it a thousand times, but this time its dire and I need to be serious about it. Maybe this thinking is just because I'm stressed out and not feeling so great, but seems to me like my life is crashing down hard right now.
I need to start a journal and write down everything that I want to change/how I'm going to do it/ and what the end result I want to be. And then keep udating it and reading about my progress.
Thanks for all the messages. Dip is not going to do any good for me, though it was the first time since I quit that I went through a really shitty life experience and dip was the last thing on my mind. I went to the gas station earlier to get a drink and fill my car up and I was shooting lazers at the tins of death.
Journaling is a great idea. I can relate so much to what you have written... when I'm not pursuing anything I feel passionate about or when I'm in a lull, even a necessary one I can get out of sorts and feel like everything is hopeless. Everything is shitty. It can be overwhelming to contemplate everything I SHOULD do and NEED to do and I can be very hard on myself as well. I don't know the specifics obviously of what you are dealing with but this I do know... the "life crashing down hard" feelings do pass. In my darkest moments (not even related to nicotine), I have to remind myself something that this too shall pass.
Hang in there. These moments usually precede times of great growth.

Hey timeless what's up? I get to fool around today since off work and noticed your HOF speech. I'm going to recommend it to the Slutember group cause of the way you put the importance of community in perspective in the speech. Have a great day and I quit with you today!
