Hi everyone. My name is Dave, I'm 38 years old, and probably started dipping regularly when I was around 18. I initially started when I was around 16, because lots of guys on my high school soccer team were doing it, many were "cool" upperclassmen, so I wanted to be accepted. Just stupid juvenile high school perceived coolness reasons. I liked the effects enough to keep doing it, but that was the stupid reason that I started.
After 20 years, I think it's time to quit. I've tried to quit a handful of times in the past, without success. One time I actually did quit dipping.... but I switched over to smoking. So that doesn't count.
This time is different, though. This time I WANT to, instead of feeling like I HAVE to. I'm finding it much easier because of that. Granted, I'm only on day 3, but I'm no where close to struggling with it... yet.
