Its been 24 hours since I've had any nicotine and 48 hours since I've had a dip. Pretty much read this site from top to bottom before posting. Wasn't too sure about posting roll as I'm typically more of a loner. But the way I see it, if this site keeps me from caving just one time, then it will have been worth it. And maybe I can pay it forward along the way.
I started dipping when I was about 14 with my older brother. Loved it from day one and for the past too many years I have had a dip in my lip at all times when I wasn't eating or sleeping. I've tried to quit numerous times. Made one decent attempt a few years ago, but ended up caving. Not this time. I'm all in on this one. I did not chew for 14 years of my life. I have chewed for 25 years of my life. WTF! I need to be quit for 11 years just to balance that shit out! I want to punch my computer just thinking about that.
This quote is what keeps me going strong:
"Feel the withdrawals and be please by them. They are the symptoms of winning."
Thanks to all that have paved the way. I look forward to joining the old breed.

Welcome MN man! Congrats on being where you are right now. QUIT! Keep moving. For me the decision to be here, Quit, was the hardest part. Craves come and go. Yeah the fog, tight forehead, hard to concentrate was rough, but as you say something is missing. Thats the part I enjoy. Watching the addiction come apart and just how intertwined it is in this life, then realize all I don't have to do to support my addiction. Freedom. I am only 39 days into this and life is good. Not even looking back. A chew will not fix anything. Another thought that helps is, "I can't control what life throws at me, but I can control what I put in my mouth." So Strap in, hang on and know IT DOES GET BETTER. Proud to Quit with You today.

Glad to have you as a part of April 2020! No Caving for either of us this time (failed in 2011). Commit to posting roll every damn day, as soon as you can (WUPP). It has been huge for me in the first 6 days getting on this forum right away in the morning. Gets my mind right. PTBQWYT.

I’m happy to have you as apart of the April 2020 group! I was like you once, made a decent attempt once, caved like a bitch. Never again. Let’s post roll EDD and kick this shit everyday!

Welcome to the club brother! Be sure to get over that loner thing soon. You're going to want to reach out to as many people as you can. Posting roll is the price of admission, but going beyond that is so much more rewarding. You're at an ACCOUNTABILITY website, so remember that. Your quit is only as strong as your support system. That's why you're here, being a loner hasn't worked in the past, so give it a shot. Reach out and make connections. PTBQWYT

Lots of MN people on this forum. I'm one of them living in TC area. Coming up on 4 years in 2 days. Used nic for 22 years. This place changed my life. Just keep coming here everyday. I've done that for 1460 days in a row not missing one day because before I'd go maybe 30 days and think I have it handled but then caved. If you want to guarantee you stay quit, this place can help you with that.
Keep it up!

Do you and would you have the ability to help out with the SSOA/ tracking down the missing/ and/or roll flipping duties in your April 2020 quit group? Any help at all is much appreciated and goes along way when it comes to Brotherhood + Accountability. Thanks in advance!
