Title: Intro- July Pre-HOF
Post by: S.Lane95 on April 05, 2018, 02:56:00 PM
Dipping for about 3.5 years. Griz straight is my cyanide of choice. Tried to quit numerous times and always managed to cave whether it's been a couple days or a couple weeks. Realized that the only way to successfully quit is to fully commit. It's never gonna happen if you just expect it to happen without paying your dues. Im sick of fucking nicotine, sick of the mouth ulcers, sore throats, cancer scares. I hate seeing my family, friends, gf taking a backseat to nicotine. It will no longer run my life and hijack my thoughts, actions, behaviors, and memories. I'm here to liberate myself. I'm here to quit.

3 days quit. about 52 hours since the beginning of the rest of my life.

Welcome to the group. Here are some words of wisdom I like to share:

The main way to be successful is to just decide that you have quit. Once you stop the negotiating in your head as to whether you will do one more or not the rest becomes far more simple.

Next, you will learn to distract your attention from your desire for a dip to anything else that interests you. This ability to change your focus will guarantee your success and make your quit that much easier.

When you place a dip in your mouth, your brain releases sugars. Well, those sugars are now going to be gone.

However, you can replace them with OJ or other fruit juices with sugar. This will provide some comfort, especially on your initial quit days.

Make sure to exercise with weights and cardio when you feel that nagging tension in your muscles, you feel that rage, when you can not sleep and when you cannot focus. Exercise really helps.

Here is one that most people overlook. Get at least 3 square meals a day. Hunger can really bring on those urges so squash those urges before they come. Eat full healthy meals and do not let yourself get excessively hungry. You will see this helps a great deal.

I waited until I was 59 quit after using tobacco for 40 years. You are wise to quit now.

I quit with you today.
