Ok. last night I decided I wanted to quit dip. Like really do it this time! so I grabbed my can of cope and laid a big ol horse shoe all the way around my bottom jaw then dumped rest in the toilet then I flushed it and wimperd as I watched the one thing I loved/hate so much vanish . This is not the first time I have done this I have dumped several cans on the ground and say no more. But then the next day when the craving hit me I just bum one from my buddy and by that afternoon I'm full fledged dipping again with my own can of favorite snuff. How do i fight off that urge for that morning dip! How do i not do it when I have trained my brain for 16 years that I need this dip in order to fix this car/ work on anything. It's rediculouse !!!

I have the same issue brother.
I have been flirting with quitting for a few days now. I made it 3 hours last night without a dip and today started strong .... for a whole hour. I feel like a friggin idiot. The reason I say that is simple. Every night when we go to bed, we quit. I had 9 hours in quit time as of this morn when I woke up. Yay me ... until an hour later the urge hit. I like you need to figure it out. We can do this man. I need to just dump my dam can and have at it.
As you can tell from my join date, i joined last year and made it a week before I caved.

Welcome Chevy. I would suggest that each morning you post your pledge to not use nicotine for the entire day. Our December quit group is here.
topic/11293904/113/ (http://forum.killthecan.org/topic/11293904/113/)
After you post your pledge stay clean for the day - then repeat the process tomorrow.
There are lots of articles and threads on this forum that have helped me a lot as well.
I am at Day 13 of my quit. I've used tobacco for 35 years. You can quit - if I can you can.
Post roll every day, I look forward to seeing your name in that list with mine.

How do i not do it when I have trained my brain for 16 years that I need this dip
Simple: Don't dip.
I don't mean to be snarky, but man up Chev. There is only one person in this world that controls whether that stuff ever enters your mouth again. Right now nicotine controls you. If you grow a pair and decide enough is enough, you control nicotine. The first way probably kills you eventually. The second way, well you have to see it to believe my brother.
I quit 70 days ago, and I by no means have it all figured out, but I do know this: There is no miracle cure. There is no secret. If you want to be quit, then quit. It takes hardwork and a ton of support from the guys and gals on this site, but it is not impossible. If you want it badly enough, you will do it.
What's it going to be?
-
you need air, you need water, you need food to nourish your body.
the only thing nicotine does is keep you from feeling the symptoms of withdrawl, nothing else.
get past this initial stuff, then learn what it does to your body, see what you have done in the past, and learn new routines, new ways, new thoughts to carry you into a clean future without this poison.
But you are here, you have made a decision, and that decision can be so powerful. Remember and honor why you have made it and you will do well.
I wish no hope as we do not hope here, but I will wish you well on your journey to rediscover yourself and learn new things on your way to being free from any plant.
-
Come on guys. Post roll and make that promise. You promise to not use nicotine of any form for that day. Spend the rest of the day loading up on water, reading, posting, and doing anything that will keep you from using nicotine.
It will suck ass. We have all been there and there are many on here with excellent advice. PM or post any of us and we will do what we can to help.
You can do this. I quit with you today. We are strong and we will make it to posting roll tomorrow.

Good God, I've been reading some weak shit on this site today.
Your initial post was one of 'em.
You may get pissed and think I'm a dick... I don't care. You need to decide what runs your life... you or a weed? Get pissed that you've wasted money ~ screwed up your health ~ compromised your self confidence. How do you get past the initial craves? Sac up and do it. It's pretty damn simple. Not easy but it is simple. Everything was better or more fun or more relaxing with dip... was a gigantic lie. Nicotine owned you and told you how it was gonna be. Time to change that bro. Own your decision. Own your life.

Like has been said in most post here, be a man grab your sac and quit romancing the nic bitch. I dipped 38 year's of my 51 and I consider myself a frigging idiot! How many year's have I taken off my life! I'm 263 days free of this cancer causing weed. I consider myself extremely lucky to be alive and cancer free. It's simple you either have the balls to take this bitch by the throat and get this done or you continue being a pussy and let this bitch run your life. You may dip and live to be 90 or you may get cancer from your very next dip! It don't take a big man to get this done just a big willpower! I'm not gonna sugar coat it, this shit is hard and you better want it for saving your life, your family needs your selfish ass! Yes I said selfish because dipping is all about you and robbing your family of a loved one. Quit dammit, I care and I'm sure your family does also! Man or mouse? Your choice

Just quit and allow yourself to experience whatever comes. That's the problem a lot of folks have. They won't allow themselves to feel the anxiety, fear, edginess, anger, or whatever else comes their way when they quit. At the first sign of stress or an anything less than comfort, they hightail it to the nearest gas station to pay monetary tribute to the cancer goddess.
YOUR ARE BEING OUTSMARTED BY A CANNED PLANT. TOBACCO EXECUTIVES LIVE IN MANSIONS WITH MONEY YOU'VE SPENT TO KILL YOURSELF. GET MAD ABOUT IT.
That's my message for the day! A happy, productive, normal life free of dip exists. And in the end, it really does not take long to get to that point. But you've got to start and will your way through these early days.

Thanks everyone for your comments . A lot of them is what I needed to hear I needed that little push that little shove to just man up and do it! Day two sucks though I have a bad headache and just feel kinda run down. Can't believe I'm actually this :D

Last night was awful. I went to a small get together. as i was sipping a brew and watching a freind of mine spit some scoal on the ground I came so close to giving up it wasn't funny. In fact I had the words "hey man you got an extra dip I'm out" right on the tip of my toung but I held the words in some how I don't know how I did it but I'm happy to say I'm 3 days quit!

Well done... Get some digits from your group.
Those are the times it's good to turn..walk away...and text a buddy real quick.
Pm if you want.. I'll share my digits if you need some.
Also be committed before you drink that cold one.
Many have fallen and used the excuse of alcohol.
Dont be a statistic.
After 3 days nic is out of your system. Now its just a bunch of small mental battles that never last very long.
Let your crave bring you here, with a bottle of water,and read.
You have to replace the time chewing with time learning how bad it is.
One more.... Could lead to a thrown Rod. And no docter can fix that small block!
I QUIT with you this Saturday. All day Long.

Stay away from it. You probably knew this get together was going to involve someone dipping.
That's like an alcoholic going to a bar.
Sounds like you're a few days in--it'll get better soon. Keep posting roll. Keep your word.
I was terrified on day 1 as well. But after I got through that initial day I realized I was now free. It still sucked, but I was free.
You have to decide: who is the master of your life? Maybe it's you. Maybe it's God. Maybe it's something else. But for the love of everything don't let it be nicotine.
She ruled, directed, and lorded over my life for well over a decade.
Quit with you today Chevy.

I quit with you today brother! Stay strong my friend!!

Be a man , quit romancing dip! You can do it, take your life back. It's damn sure not worth all the problems and disgust it causes. Who knows your wife may kiss you again! Quit on and listen to these guy's eventually you will here the suction sound of your head coming out of your ass where the olé bitch has here reigns ever so closely bound. Remember we were all there, all the good and bad you get from these post are from guy's just like you that really give a shit about you! Quit on!
-
We're here with you and for you Chev. You have 3 days under your belt now, keep pushing forward.
-
Chevy was a lurker today but we're not sure if he is a quitter as he has not posted roll in over two weeks.
What happened?
-
Chevy!!!! Come on bud. Don't let the nic win. We are all here for the same reason. Come on brother! Make a statement. Don't let it defeat you.

Damn.....just.. .....Damn!
