Title: 22 hours and counting
Post by: mgb64701 on November 20, 2012, 01:46:00 PM
I have almost made it through my first complete day without Copenhagen in 21 years.
It is getting hard. I can't think. Will I be able to sleep tonight?
I really want to go to a dentist and get my teeth cleaned up and whitened, and make myself pretty again, if I can make it through the next few weeks.
My gums are so receded , I barely have any. When they heal back I will go to the dentist. Sorry if I seem to be rambling about trivial stuff.
I work at night. Dipping gives me entertainment in a boring life. I don't have a lot of diversionary activities to distract me from my increasingly overwhelming craving.
If I have the willpower to make it through, I want to make fitness my new addiction. I have already been weight lifting and kettle bell lifting the past year and a half.
I have smoked about 3 cigars today. They didn't really do anything to satiate my cravings, and to be honest they were a bit unpleasant. I prefer dipping over smoking, but it is much easier for me to quit smoking than dipping. Maybe I can go buy a pack of cigarettes, to tide me over this freaking out period?

Dude...this isn't just about not dipping. This is about NO NICOTINE. NONE. NADA. Zilch. No cigars. No cigs. No nicotine gum. NOTHING.

I suggest you RE-READ everything you thought you understood about this site when you decided to join....

Coach is right. Click on the "Welcome Center" link and start reading. Read about what it means to post roll.

This is hard...real fucking hard. Those kettle bells are babyshit compared to keeping your word. I suggest you spend some time and truly ask yourself if you are ready for this. It doesn't sound like it to me.

We hope you join us. But the real choice is yours.

Not much in your post says to me that you even want to quit...

The first step to quiiting is quitting for today, and today only. Don't think about tomorrow until it comes, and then quit for that day only. Repeat the process one day at a time. You will never quit if you keep saying things like, "if I can".

That may be true but it is also the most addictive drug ever, causes cancer, causes you to not be able to priority properly, makes you delusional, ugly (responding to "make myself pretty again"), waste money, and countless other things.

If I have the willpower
Do you want to be quit or not? If you do you are in the right place. Keep in mind to post here you have to be 100% nic free (see next point).

You are not nic free. Decide what you want to be nic free or not. This site is about more than being dip free. There is zero tolerance for any nic use. If you quit all forms of nic (smokes, dip, cigars, gum, patches, nic-supositories, whever you're into) post roll and promise to be nic free for the day. Refer back up to my first point.

I'd tend to agree...'cept I saw him reading up on a few things before he disappeared...

Whether he was a troll or decided that he wasn't ready for the quit, he seems to be gone now.

Funny how many people come in here saying they want it....they just don't yet realize how bad they have to want it.........
