Awesomeness!!! congrats on the best decision you can make for yourself!! support is around every corner on this site reach out within your group and Post Roll every morning!
Great job just getting on to quitting! I sure recognize how I could fall off like you... your story reinforces in me to stay with the program, post every day, thereby assuring that for that day i'm quit. Did it teach you that? Jump in here, try to do some things different/better now. Looking forward to seeing you go day by day and winning!
This info helped me early on, and still does today: https://whyquit.com/whyquit/linksaaddiction.html

Quitters I’ve met so far: Ihatecope, >Pinched<, T-Cell, grizzlyhasclaws, Canvasback, BaseballPlayer, Cbird65, ERDVM, BradleyGuy, Ted, Zeno, AppleJack, Bronc, Knockout, MookieBlaylock, Rdad, 2mch2lv4, MN_Ben, Natro, Lippizaner, Amquash, ChristopherJ, GDubya, SRohde  -- always eager to meet more!

That's how to quit. Drink a ton of water and stay close to this site.

Now go post up in the February 2017 Pre-HOF group. Post up that you promise not to use for the rest of the day and then come back again and do it tomorrow. If you already had a forum back in 2005, you know how this works. Own this for you...take your power and control back now. Don't let this poisonous weed control you. Just keep coming here and read up and post up and talk to your group in Feb who are also going through this. Don't think about it...just do it. You will be happy you did...maybe not at this moment but trust me, in due time you will be happy you did.
Hell yes! Manned up! Damn proud of you!
Tobacco is so addictive it took me a year after a massive heart attack, in which doctor confirmed caused from dipping to finally put a lid on the bitch! ODAAT EDD

Come on man. Quit date is now, not a day or 2 later. Grab some seeds, gum, lifesaver candies and motor on like a man that wants this and wants it now.

Yes, if all of the dip is flushed, no garbage cans.

And tomorrow more bad shit will happen, and Wednesday becomes March 2017 and so on and so forth. Been there, done that.

Dude, you and I are addicts, and you know what addicts are good at? Lying to ourselves. I lied to myself and my wife every time I "stopped" using dip, until the next bad day came and I stuffed poison in my mouth.

Bad days will always happen.

The only thing that ever worked for me was to trust this site, go cold turkey, and quit.
