Hey guys,
I might be a young soul on this site at 21 years old but i have decided its time to kill the can. Ive been dipping for about 3 years now during college (nothing compared to some of you guys) and really ramped up this past summer when i roughnecked offshore (1-2 cans of cope wintergreen) where you had to dip to be one of the guys. Being a 20 year old college kid, working on an offshore drilling rig, while making oil field cash made my head get pretty big. I thought I was "a badass", "cool", "a real man" etc but recently im thinking the exact opposite after one day fishing on the river. (Side note: I love fishing and do kayak bass tourneys) It all happened when i was paddling down the river after catching a 4-5 lb bass with a big dip in, i thought I was the man until i looked on the bank to see a father and son fishing having a great time. I dont know what happened but my future flashed infront of my eyes, begging the question "is dip really worth losing days from my life that could be spent with my kids?" (Ps: i dont have kids yet). My answer to my self was "fuck no", and i chunked that dip as far as I could and dumped my can. This journey wont be fun but theres not really a choice here. I started using that smokey mountain snuff to start tricking my mind I had some cope in, this past weekend I was in the library studying and left the can on the table. A guy sat across from me and said "Why are you using fake dip, are you a poser or something? That stuff is for pussy's" he then proceded to pull out skoal pouches..... We all know who the real pussy is.
None the less I'm here to quit, find guys that have quit that can scare me shittless
I posted this in the 2015 general discussion but I then realized this is the right section to post in.
We can do this together

You have definitely come to the right place. I, like you, am also one of the younger guys on this site at 22 years old and I chewed for about 5 years. I used to date this girl and we were together a few years, and she never complained about me dipping. It was nice and it kind of sucked cause I never really got that motivation to quit. Anyways one day we were talking about it and I was saying how I wanted to quit and she replied to me "you should, don't you want to be able to kiss your daughter at her wedding." I do not have any kids either, but that has really stuck with me. I ended up quitting for only about a month. Just like you seeing that father and his son though, they are eye openers and make you realize that these cans of shit we keep putting in our mouth are just not worth missing out on the special moments in life. I quit with you today. Feel free to PM me anytime.

Kayak fishing? A man after my own heart. What kind of yak do you have?
Welcome to the rest of your life.
You can do this.

Glad you're here moon. Great introduction. How many days have you been quit? I consider myself a bit of a young buck around here too (25), and wish I would've committed to quitting back when I was your age. Trust me -- dip hasn't made my life any better over the last 3 years. Just paranoia and shame. Consider me your ghost of christmas future.
Get over to the "quit groups" section and figure out which group you belong in. The most important thing we do here is wake up and post roll, where we make a promise every damn day not to use nicotine for that day.

Thanks for all the replies so far boys,
I've been quit for about 4 days now and really need some advice on fighting the cravings, and how to ween myself off dip. One problem is my roommate dips almost 24/7 thinking he is hick, a real badass, oh he also has daddy's money to buy him whatever he wants which really pisses me off. To add to it, he hunts more than anyone I know and doesn't even eat meat, his daddy also takes him on hunting trips around the world. Sorry for the rant but he has kept telling me dip isn't bad for him, and his dentist says he is in perfect health which we all know is bullshit. He is a whopping 5 foot nothing and is the first hurdle in this quit process to tell him he is a fucking pussy, who wants to look redneck, when he doesn't even know what its like to earn his own money.
Ending rant now

Yeah or I could tell his dad that he dips, he always talks about how his dad would kill him, maybe its about that time 'Finger'
I'm going to start doing role call once I am 100% committed to quitting, joining this site is step number 1 in the thousands of steps to come

WTF is this shit. Why the hell are you worried about a roommate and whether or not he dips? Man up, grow a pair and be your own man. Second, get the fuck out of here until you are ready to quit. this is not "The thousand step quit dip website". If you're dipping, leave and come back when you have a spine.

So your quit? You will have all the support you can imagine if you take advantage of it. Come here and puss out you will fail. Roll Call is posted via your name and number of days quit. It is your promise to all of us that you will not use nicotine in ANY form for that day. Next day you wake up, post roll and then go take your morning piss. It is the backbone of our quit, and it is necessary for you to succeed.
To post roll go to the community tab, Quit groups tab then scroll down. Look for the latest quit group (probably AUG 15) go to the last page, post your name and days quit. Your group will take care of you from there and teach you the proper way to post. If your serious, you will figure it out.

You say you are not dipping.....are you smoking, patching, or using nicotine in any form?

You're my kind of guy. Bass fisher right here! Been twice this year so far because of the long winter we had up here. Haven't caught anything yet. Normally I would go fishing and my friends and I would all stuff our mouths full of dip then cast out. Not anymore, because I want to teach my children how to fish. It really isn't worth it at all, all it does is kills you slowly and drains your wallet. Every tin I bought I could've bought a new senko or Storm lure. I'm younger than you and I know I can do this so I know you can do this. Check pm I'm sending you my number

Moon my friend, listen to mogul! This shit is for real. This is your life you're dealing with. I'm 50 years old been dipping 38 years and I am one lucky S.O.B! Not to have cancer! Do as he said, Piss on the rich redneck dipping roommate, grab your sac and worry about your damn self. We are here to help but I'm gonna tell you if anyone told you this is easy they lied to you! Damn proud to be quit with you today my friend!

Moon, you still quit? posting roll? Lets hear from you...

Moon, my apologies. I see you have indeed posted roll. I deserve a big swift kick in the ass, just don't lick your boot before you do it. Proud to quit with ya.

Great move getting on the site and posting roll. Best decision you could have made. I chewed for 17 years and tried quitting quite a few times when I was in my 20's. The nic bitch always convinced me that I could always quit tomorrow and that I was too young to get cancer. Tomorrow turned into days, weeks, then years. Glad you've realized there's no better time to quit than right now. Aside from the health benefits, you'll get back your integrity and freedom which is more important than anything else in life. I quit with you moon. PM me if you'd like to trade digits or just need some advice/support.
