My bad habit

[Kdip]

Best Decision you will ever make Dave!!! Most importantly Quit for YOURSELF!!! Good move getting rid of your tampon!!! All that does is drag out the process of quitting. Get active in the April quit group and post roll EVERYDAY!!! Quitting sucks but it is DAMN WELL WORTH IT!!!

I too was a closet dipper as far as my wife and family. I was an expert at hiding from people I didn't want to share my dirty secret with. It took my wife leaving me to finally grow balls big enough to quit!!! Get that shit out of your life before that happens to you and MOST importantly come clean with your wife and family if you have not already done so!!! It will give the resolve to stay quit!!! Read my HOf speech it is almost exactly like your intro with the exception of using the patch. My number is a PM away if you need one for cave prevention or extra support.

Hello,
I am Dave from Minnesota.
I have chewed since 15 and am 28 now.
I quit at the beginning of 2010 with the patch. I went 3 days with no chew and then I started back up along with still using the patch. I was then using the patch and chewing almost as much as before. Realizing i need support, I looked online.

I then found Killthecan.org.
In my first chat I was advised (harassed) to take off the tampon. I made excuses at first but I caved (thank you all). I am now on Day 6 without any nicotine or tobacco whatsoever. Yay!!!

For years and years, I have been scared about the thought of no dip in my mouth. I hid it from just about everyone including my wife. She had no idea that i had chew in my mouth almost every moment together. I had good pockets for hiding it from everyone. I was basically a closet dipper. I was ashamed of it. I was afraid to deal with it. I was getting worse. It started with a tin a week and ended being almost a tin a day. I noticed myself getting progressively more addicted and dependent. It made me less social. I never wanted to go anywhere so i could stay home and chew. It was causing strain on my marriage that i tried to work around but couldn't. I always had dip on my mind. i was always preoccupied with dipping. I could not focus or concentrate on anything else.

Anyways, I am glad to be part of the April HOF Group. I am dedicated to being nicotine free and fixing up my life in general.
Thank you all and we can do this!

Great decision Dave!!

There will come times in your quit where you will be once again scared to not have a dip in your mouth. Fight through it, and I promise you it will be better than you ever imagined. Stick close to this site and read, read, read. Get to know your quit brothers, get phone #'s for use in an emergency (mine is just a pm away). You CAN do this, I am living proof of that.
