Title: Day 2 sucks
Post by: TxGator on March 16, 2016, 10:13:00 AM
Well help. Here I am on day 2. I just quit out of the blue and after making it a day, thought, I better come up with a plan.

So

Still no plan. I AM however, holding. Got a half can in my sock as we speak. I think, for me, that it will actually help. The last time I quit, I got to work and all I kept thinking about was how I didn't have a can available. It really got in my head, lol. Hell, I already got nicotine withdrawal, I don't need separation anxiety too...:)

Well let see. Im 53 and been dipping since 1976,....that was a pretty good year...

So why am I quitting? Well, I am tired of having to plan a spit bottle, tired about making sure I have enough to get through insert everything. And mostly? Tired of the cost. 6.00+ for a 1.2 oz can of snuff. 9.78 for a pack of chew. Ridiculous.

So anyway, for the first month or so I plan on getting rolls of quarters and dollar coins from the bank and pay myself each day I stay quit. bring it all out on the kitchen table and see what I have blown every month for years...let me go do some quick calcs,.really conservative estimate is over 80,000.

I sure hope I can stick with it this time.

Welcome TxGator to the best decision for saving your life! Head over to June 2016 Pre-HOF (http://forum.killthecan.org/topic/11536813/159/#new) to post roll. At KTC, posting roll is your daily promise to keep nicotine out of your lip and body (all forms of nicotine) for 24 hours. This is sacred. Do this early and everyday. Wake Up, Piss, Post (WUPP).

Also - toss the poison in a can out immediately. Don't have a trophy can sitting around baiting you to have a dip. If you don't, you aren't ready to quit yet and if that is the case, come back when you are ready to quit. We are here to support you but you have to be wanting that quit for yourself first and foremost.

If you are ready, welcome to the freedom from being a slave to nicotine and a much better life ahead saving your life from certain death from the poison.

There are things we should all have reserved in our lives. Food, Batteries, Clothing, Gasoline. Dip should not be one of those. AND having reservations about quitting is what you have. If you didn't, you would have tossed that can before even posting.

congrats on making the decision to quit the devils dirt. I was a dipper for over 30 years and cold turkey is hell, so hang on tight, it is going to be a hell of a ride.
Exchange some digits with your quit group, or whoever for that matter, it will help you on those days when you need something/everything to help you get through.
You can do this bro, I quit with you today.
