Hey guys, just woke up this morning after a late night Call of Duty: Black Ops session with the roommates and most of a can of Cope straight, and when I got up I decided today was the day to actually click this site I'd bookmarked a while back. I bookmarked it about the same time I made the New Years Resolution to quit dipping... Whoops.
I'm two months away from turning 22 and been dipping since I was 16 so roughly 6 years I guess. I'm also 3 months from graduating college (go Vols) and now is the time, if I'm ever gonna do it. I know it's tough and it'll be even tougher since two of my roommates dip as much as I do, but this isn't just for me.
This is for my grandpa who died 3 years ago from some combination of liver failure and cancer. He drank, smoked, and chewed for over 50 years and never gave any of it up, even when he couldn't get out of bed his last year. So, this is for you Pap. Just gave my roommate my last unopened can of Cope, gonna finish up some homework and go to class, and live my life from today forward. That's it, I'm done.
Day 1.

Way to go Boovis. It won't be easy but nothing is. You can kill this problem now. Be the tougher bastard in your house by not dipping. You can do this. Start reading as much as you can here. It will open your eyes brother. There are plenty of folks here to help so reach out, ask questions, get advice. You're making a great step towards taking back your life.

I started at about the same age as you. QUIT NOW!! I'm 36 so I've WASTED A SHITLOAD OF MONEY ON THIS CRAP FOR 20 YEARS!! It absolutely pisses me off to think of the money I wasted and all the cool stuff (new golf clubs, pistols, trips) that I could have spent my money on. Congrats on the quit..oh, and War Eagle! Make it happen.

Great decision, im also in college and 19 yo. Im on Day 11 and things r looking up. The main trouble i have is studying, when i was studying i always had a dip in, and the first couple days were rough i was studying calc 2 and nothing made sense and couldn't focus on anything cuz the nic bitch was in my head screaming "Get a dip". You just have to find something to cope with it, i used gum and atomic fireballs but nothing will get that bitch out of your head u just have to fight her. I don't mean to scare you but just be prepared cuz the first few days r intense. If you need anything lemme know.

Well done. Be strong and remember that your roomies are offering poison, assume that next dip will be the one that kills you, if they ever want you to join in for old times sake. It won't be easy but a couple weeks/month from now you won't remember how tough it was at times. If we can you can!
Speaking of gaming in the last month I've played the xbox for an hour total maybe, just isn't the same without a dip I guess. Luckily there ain't any games I need to play at the moment.

I wish I had been smart enough to quit at your age. Sadly I waited a very long time. Quitting does not get easier with age. Stick to your commitment, understand the battle you are fighting and NEVER put that shit in your body again.

Good for you little brother. Go find your group and get settled in. If you need anything, shoot LOOT a PM. There, you have personal access to LOOT. Cool thing is you won't need it if you join your group, post Roll Call everyday, get to know the guys in your group, and prepare. Prepare by using this site.
Your homework is to prep your friends. Let them know you are serious and they should not tempt you. When they offer, and they will, dump their tin on the ground. That should take care of future offers.
Be clean little brother.
Never again, for any reason.

Yeah dude, studying worries the shit out of me, because I don't remember studying in college yet without a pinch in. Sigh, only about 3 months left though, I'll rough it I guess.

Welcome to this site. The one thing we have learned here is that you have to quit for yourself. Do you want to quit for you or is this just out of respect for your grandpa?
You have to do this because you want to do this for you.
