I'm probably older than most of you on here. Been dipping for 34 years now. As a teacher, you would think I would know better and would have quit years ago. (I actually did quit for a full year about 10 years ago but then "celebrated" by having a dip...really not smart). Anyway, I'm tired of worrying everytime I get a sore or something in my mouth. I have a great marriage and two great (grown) sons that I would really like to enjoy for many more years. No more excuses. I'm done as of today but I really need some help. I'm hoping everyone here can provide some support. I hope so. I really need this. Thanks for "listening".

Hell yes! Congrats on a great decision. You should hop over to the February 2019 group under Pre-HOF Quit Groups. You’ll be the first one in that group. All you have to do is post a promise that you won’t use today. Wake up and do it again tomorrow. Quit one day at a time. Head on over and you’ll see plenty of support.

Welcome and go post day 1. Let us know of if you need help with roll. This is the best decision you've ever made. February is your month and we'll post support for you daily there. Make sure and read some intros and Hall of Fame speeches. There is lots of good info to help your quit. If you need anything feel free to reach out in a PM.

You'll find there are a lot of older folks around here, that will definitely be able to relate to your quit! Congratulations and welcome.

Congratulations on your decision! You have made it a year quit, thus know what it takes ... and conversely know it doesn't take much to fall. I see you have already made your daily promise in the Feb group, kudos. Utilize this website to the fullest as its techniques are effective. Read and become engaged with others. I am on day 99 and I quit with you today.
