I decided to quit dipping after several failed attempts, ok hundreds, in the past.
It seemed everywhere I began to work I was surrounded by people who loved to dip, so it had always made it so difficult. I always put it off- especially after joining the military, which is my current full time job. I had tried to quit so many times for other people, failing to realize the only person I truly must prove this to is myself.
I have been dipping since I was 18, I'm currently 26, at a can a day for most years. I was forced to quit for 8 weeks in Navy boot camp. I have not voluntarily cold turkey quit dipping since 2007, until now. I picked my birthday as my quit date a week before I pulled the plug (APR 4). I had my family come visit, and it really sunk home with me. I have never felt this way before about my situation with quitting dip in my hundreds of attempts to quit. This time feels so much different. I'm going to give this everything I've got.
I figured why not add one more round to the arsenal to kill this habit and am reaching out to you guys, for support, guidance, and experience.
Thank you guys in advance.

Plan for the craves -seeds /gum / fake chew /fake tea pouches

Uh... Let me clarify a portion of this...
Post roll.
Every day.
End of story.
You're not magically cured at, or after, 100.

agreed - no magical cure at 100 days

Been loading up on gum, seeds, and sugar free jolly ranchers. Been pumping a lot of water which has also seemed to help, just carrying around a nalgene bottle. Its funny how the feeling of simply being well hydrated all day has helped. (instead of having a dip in ALL day with very little H20 intake.)
I plan on going well passed 100 on this go, so I'm with you guys.

Definitely have momentum rolling into the weekend. Going to stay in instead of hitting happy hour where I know I'll cave this early. Unusual night time behavior last night kept waking up starving went in and ate food at around 230-3 am usually up at 5 eating breakfast. Was unusual and had a dream about caving. I have a big test today at work and it may be compiling but was wondering if you guys have experienced the eating thing, I have had the dreams before. Silencing the demon

I ate everything that was slower than me.
Have already knocked off the early weight gain at 143 days.
Do what ever it takes to keep Nic from the body.
Quit with you today.

Henke - As a fellow 26 year old on the site, I welcome you and and quit with you. I just touched 192 days free after 10 years of daily dipping.
My advice to you is to come here for your cravings. Use this as your outlet. Times of anger and rage will occur, no way around it. Use that on us. We get it. Take roll, meet some people and stay the fuck quit.
PM me if you ever feel the urge.

Thanks a lot guys really digging the support here...it's funny I have been using the grinds coffee pouches at work for a pump up. Put them on top so it's different then it used to be familiar enough but not the same. Motivating part is I had 2 long time dippers coming up to me, my peers asking what I was doing to quit (and strongly considering it themselves). I'm building a team at work and building it here I can't thank you enough. Game time weekend
