Vokleez...why on earth have you not posted roll in January 2016 yet? You don't EVER have to go through this alone - you have a GREAT group of quitters over there, all at the same stage of their quit and going through the same kind of challenges. You say this is the last quit for you? You want to succeed? Then there is NO BETTER way to make that happen than to go over to January RIGHT NOW, post roll (and EDD thereafter) and make your promise to not use nicotine today. Then be a man of integrity and keep that promise you made.

That's it. Price of admission. Price for success.
Just one and you will be back to where you started, and where you started was desperately wishing you were where you are now.

Day 19 here- I have had anxiety throughout and the eating thing has been on and off. Day 3-5 I was nausious and didn't want to eat anything. Then I couldn't eat enough until Day 17 or so, now back to nausea and don't really want to eat. IMHO the anxiety from the quit is why I wasn't eating.

Every day is a new day- stay quit for today.

Hang in there,you have came this far 25 days,im on day 19 and feeling great.Let me tell you whats working for me and mabey you can try this.I might have discovered something here without realizing it.But,im on this #Bulletproof diet,#bulletproofcoffee,ketogenic diet.The bulletproof diet is about eating healthy organic food,its also a high fat/low carb/moderate protein.so basicly no grains,no startches,no sugar,you also do moderate fasting.what all this does,is,it cuts your cravings for food,sugar and tabacco.so bacause im putting 100 percent of my effort into this diet and eating healthy im focusing my energy into that and not into doing dip again.so hope this helps and start drinking #bulletproofcoffee in the mornings.stay strong.

Thanks everyone for the support. I know I can do this. It feels good knowing that I'm not going through this for anyone else besides myself. Some days are harder than others but I'm glad I finally decided to post on here. The support means the world. I WILL REACH HOF!

I think i went through all of what you are describing. You'll have to get into the swing of things here. You can make it, hour by hour if needed. But having others support you makes all the difference. PLus knowing what you are fighting. Get in here and read read read all you can. Just get through each minute, then try another if you can. It sucks to go through, but the freedom is amazing. You'll get enough tastes of it as you go to carry you through- if you really want this. Jump in hard, now. This is your chance!

You're quit. Find your group and make a promise. Check out the welcome center and consider changing the name of this thread. We dont try, we do. Theres absolutely no reason you have to do this again. Its only a day. Try seeds, sugarless gum, toothpicks or pushups. Stay hydrated!!! Nic is a stimulant and its going to take some time to even things out but I promise it gets better. Just post and keep your promise. Done.

There is no weakness in seeking medical attention. My best advice is to see a doctor or therapist.

Hey, Not sure I'm supposed to do this, but I'm going to anyway. You are hearing it from someone on Day 1. You say it was easy for you to quit at the beginning? Well, that is your addiction talking, trying to convince you that you can quit at any time. You say you don't eat, don't sleep, get depressed and are stressed out? Stop thinking about what you don't need (dip), think about the things you appreciate in life. Dip did not enhance your experiences! It didn't then, and it should not now! Go eat your favorite food, and do your favorite activity! Don't let this addiction control you! You made a decision to quit, now stand strong and live life the way it was supposed to be lived, to its fullest! I'm on round 1 for quitting, but I have stopped many times, one time for as long as a year. My addiction controlled me for 27 years, and I will no longer let it rule my life. Nor should you!

Take control, refocus your mind priorities and I thank you for this post!!

Trying not to cave day 25

Hey everyone, I have dipped for 9 years, tried quitting multiple times, but never for me. This time I'm doing it for me. I'm on day 25 and the urge to dip is getting out of control. when I quit cold turkey it wasn't hard for me. I didn't feel foggy or even have symptoms until about day 7. Then it was hell. Every day has gotten worse over the past 2 week or so. My insomnia is ridiculous, but the main thing is that I haven't eaten but once a day over the past week? Usually it's opposite? I have no desire to eat because the real only times I dipped was right after a meal or when I was pissed off or stressed. Also I have had the worst panic and anxiety attacks now because of this. I've also been depressed which sucks.. sometimes I literally start tearing up because the urge is so real. I've thought about getting a can multiple times but have not. I'm starting to think this isn't worth it. But I don't ever want to feel like this again. My thoughts are this is my last chance to quit.
