Title: Embracing the suck
Post by: runningbear on June 24, 2014, 06:55:00 PM
Hello all. Today is the first day of being dip free. I don't feel that great. Mostly irritable and a headache haha. I really need to quit. Started when I was 16 and I just turned 32. I didn't dip all that much( a can every 4-5 days), but I'm not waiting for my luck to run out. I'm excited about quitting this poison I used to stick in my mouth.

Kind regards,
Jim

Welcome to the site Runningbear! Glad to see you made the decision to save your own life!

What is your story? Where are you from? What inspired you to quit?



Remshot- I heard that phrase all the time in the military, long before I knew about KTC

Welcome running bear. I wanted to touch on one part of your intro that should be considered " I didn't dip all that much( a can every 4-5 days)"............brother, an addict is an addict. We don't quantify here, we quit.

Substitute "shoot heroin" for dip in that sentence and you'll see what I mean. I Hope to see a day 2 in October posted soon!
