Quote from: Eric
My name is Eric. I am 44 years old and have been addicted to Copenhagen Long Cut Straight for 25 years. I heard a sermon at Church Sunday night that made me want to stop once and for all. I stopped dipping on 4 nineteen 2015 at 6:00 PM. If I was not sleeping or eating I had a huge dip in my mouth!! This site has been a huge help and has some amazing reads on here. I am struggling mightily today. I am eating mints, seeds, have drank at least 5 bottles of water and it is only 2 in the afternoon. The craving today is as bad as it has been since I quit and everything is a foggy haze. I cannot focus on anything and I am behind a desk all day and taking a fat huge dip is consuming my ever thought. I will beat this but I think this will be the most difficult battle I have ever faced. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

This site is amazing and to whoever came up with it THANK YOU very much!! I am sure I will be a regular here moving forward for motivation and anything else that can help beat this once and for all!!!
hey Eric,
It really sounds like you want your life back..Slavery sucks!
A big welcome to You from one nicotine addict to another.
This site saved my life. It can save yours as well....just allow it to...let go...drink the the Quit Kool-Aid brother.
If you stick around, I promise your quit will stick...we do this ODAAT (one day at a time)
We don't worry about tomorrow, we don't do the past, we focus on Today, just Today.
If my sorry butt can do this I know that YOU can Too.
I'm on day 1063. I quit 8:36 a.m. May 25th, 2012.
Read up, own up, post up everyday your feet hit the floor.
Come on in the water is fine.
Keeping my jaw and tongue...I like them.
It's poison I tell ya, You wouldn't drink Liquid Drano, would ya?

Welcome Eric. What WT said! It was the hardest but also the best thing I have ever done for myself. You have no idea how damn awesome it is to be free from slavery to nictotine. You can do this! Learn how to post roll and do that EVERYDAY. It is the cornerstone of everything we do here. Lets do this brother!

That must have been some sermon. You might want to drop a little something extra in the offering plate next Sunday! Glad you are here. It sounds like you are on the right track.

Go here - Welcome Center to learn what we do here and how to post roll. Then go to the July Quit group to post roll and introduce yourself. You can do this. Let's get started!

Eric it may very well be the most difficult thing you've ever done it was for me. I suggest you go to the welcome center and figure out how to post roll, meet as many fellow quitters as possible and get numbers so you can have another layer of accountability. Without the brotherhood and accountability your odds of success are greatly reduced.
