Well, I am on day 18 of my quit today. I figured I should go ahead and get this intro out there. better late than never I guess.
My name is Chip. I am from south texas. Lots of farmers, ranchers, and refinery workers. Everyone that was anyone dipped. At least that what it seemed like. I know in my family, most of the men did. I took my first dip at the county livestock show when I was 14. I didnt fall in love with cope immediately, thats for sure. But, shortly after that, I found the redseal in my dads truck. That was a different story. I dont want to make excuses, but before that I dont think I actually knew that my dad dipped. When I found those cans, its like i knew this is what i had to do. So I started stealing dips from his cans. I think i was probably hooked now. By 16, I had buddies that were 18 buy me cans of the seal. I was dipping in the locker room after football practice, in ag class, in other classes throughout the day, after school in the barn while i fed the animals, at our ranch, and of course while i was in the bathroom at home. i was dipping anytime i was not around my mom. Dad would tell me, "son, you need to quit that crap, its no good!". Like i was gonna quit doing something he was doing. wish i would've listened then. well, i have been dippin ever since. bout a can a day since i was 18. 14 years of killing my self! I am so glad that i found this website. I have never made it this far into my quit, and i have no doubts that it is b/c of this site and all the support here. so thanks to everyone involved, and quit everyday! i quit today!

Welcome Aboard Chip.
You really can kill the can...ODAAT and NAFAR.
Learn to hate nicotine for the poison that it really is instead of the lies we've been told.
Cheers
