New member here. I am going on day 3 of my quit. I’ve been a cope pouch user for most of the last 15 years. Dipping has been my internal struggle since I graduated college. Since no one “knows” I dipped for so long, it’s a relief just to admit that i was in fact a dipper. I hate that it controlled my life for as long as it has but I’m excited to find out what a dip free future is like. On day 1 of my quit, I worked an entire day in my home office with a can at my finger tips. I didn’t even open the can once, and it was one of the most rewarding days of my life. I am ready to take my life back. Can someone provide some insight into how all this works? I didn’t see a quit group with that had my quit date in it (08/23/2020).

Welcome to KTC! Your quit date falls on the last day of the November 2020 quit group’s range. Go here and post your daily pledge to not use nicotine of any form for 24 hours.

Wake up and do it again tomorrow. Quit one day at a time with us, every day.

Dump that can and any others you have stashed away. That is a temptation that you will not want within reach, especially on a bad day.

Stone Cold Steve Austin quit dip and said the best thing he found was to just stop buying that shit. Hard to cave if you refuse to buy a can, right?
@QuitDipStPete  snahsorg gave you the link to freedom - the Nov 2020 group. Glad to see you on roll this morning. Focusing ODAAT - one day at a time will help you a great deal. Drink a ton of water, get some exercise, get a little extra rest and realize it will take time for your new normal to be present. We can’t put poison in our bodies for years and expect everything to go well after a week or 2. It takes time but realize those cravings, headaches, etc is our body healing. Food will taste so much better. You will get so much better sleep. Your energy and focus levels will return to normal. Best of all, you will not actively be killing yourself. If you choose life over nicotine, you really can do this and we are here to help. Check your messages as my digits will be there.
