I'm a 19 year old college baseball player, have been dipping consistantly (can a day) since i was 15. My mom actually just got a facebook page and was bitching about how I look terrible next to all of these cute girls in my pictures because their teeth are so white and mine get worse by the day. Obviously i face bigger problems than my teeth being stained if i keep up the bad habit, but that's when it hit me. I'm done, Grizzly Mint has taken over 4 years of my young life and i'll be damned if it's going to be superior to me anymore. I'M SMARTER THAN THIS, I'M SMARTER THAN THE NIC BITCH. With that said, I started my quit Saturday at the baseball diamond, my teammates are witness and my brothers thru the process, and i invite all of you all to help me as well... Let's all do it together!
Shosky - I went through HS, American Legion and a brief college baseball career without dipping only to pick up the habit after my playing days were over.

That was 18 years ago. Make the commitment and get this done. Let me know if I can help.

This is my story 7 years ago. Stop now, trust me. Grizzly wintergreen was my killer, and at your age I was going through roughly a little under a can a day. Within 3 years I was to 2 cans a day, dipping at every waking moment. You have a chance to end this before you do real damage. Hang tough and use this site.
IT GETS EASIER!!

Welcome to quit, shosky.

I started chewing as a baseball player and never stopped, even after the baseball stopped. I met a couple of guys on this site in the last three months that were baseball players. One is playing at a West Coast University right now. They both caved. I miss their wit and chatter, but even more so I'm really just sad for them - because they got trapped again. While the NCAA put a stop to free chew in the dugout you are nonetheless going to be around it alot. It's good that your team is behind you and hopefully they realize that this is no joke.

You will find that you have an entirely new team here behind you as well. There are many people on this site with chew practically written into their job description. They will help. I will help. You can do this.
...when you are suffering on some gnarly hillclimb, clinging onto the wheel in front of you for dear life, pray you don't get dropped.
