Chewed for 30 years, tried quitting just about as many times
This time feels different not sure why..
Day 8 for me, having sucess with the oral fixation part with Jake's mint dip. When I am craving- a dip of the cola/mint/cinnamon does the job for now...Variety is key, keep your brain guessing.
The nicotine withdrawal is at the usual point, insomnia, or at lest it feels like insomnia. Wake up at least 5 times a night. This is what usually ends it for me.
Not this time tho, gonna bust thru, I am sick of lying to myself that cancer can't happen to me and that chewing tobacco is not that bad of a habit. Tired of brushing my teeth at night and spitting in the sink until no more skoal specks show. Damn how the hell did I ignore how friggin disgusting that is for 30 years?!?!
And yet as I type I know the answer...nicotine.
Gonna break her hold on me, day by day,hour by hour , minute by minute...second by friggin second.
it's different this time because I am finally mad, mad as heck that a decision I made at 16 still rules my life 30 years later. Nicotine is a drug and I am the addict. today I admit it, today I deny her, today I will win.
I will finally win, day by day minute by minute second by second....
