Title: Little late to the party...
Post by: Cat on December 24, 2009, 12:20:00 PM
In the process of quitting Skoal. Have been chewing since about 1997 (smoked before that). Tried everything I could to quit, cold turkey, gum, patches - always fell back off the wagon.

This time trying Chantix, and so far, I haven't had a chew since Dec 11.

I want to say it's because I am committed this time, but that's BS. I was committed before, I have two young kids, a great family, yet I always found my way back to a store for a can. Any excuse - stress, argument with the wife, bad day at work, blah blah. Those things will always be there, and it's time.

So anyway, that's my story in short. :blink:

Welcome to the site, I'm new to the site myself and recently joined the March 2010 HOF group and I'm VERY confident that I will remain quit. The support opportunities offered on this site will help both of us stay quit!

PM me if you need anything. Merry Christmas!
