Hello all,
My name is Justin and I live in rural Nevada. I have been a true Copenhagen snuff addict for 26 years. It's only day 3 with no snuff, but those are the only 3 days in the last 26 that count I guess. I find that everything I do justifies having a dip, such as work, out hunting, when fishing, checking my trapline, before meals, after meals, before bed, in bed, etc. etc......Ahhhhh its killing me! I have not used any of the herbel blends, gum, candy, or anything else. I figured that being done meant being done with the oral fixation and gum pressure, as well as all the other nasty stuff.
Thank you for this website, as it feels so good to have other people going thru the same things I'm going thru. The hardest part of this whole process is going to be today, as I do a lot of cowboying for ranchers in my valley and of course they all chew snuff and I will be next to them in a saddle all day!!! I gave SirDerek my word that I would be nicotine free today and any man that calls himself a man does not break his word....ever!
I will post back on here after the day is over.....until then THANK YOU for listening to my rant/introduction and for letting me join your fraternity! If anyone else in the April 2013 group needs to talk, text, or whatever, I would love the chance to be a strong voice for you, as I know I will need your help thru this tough voyage!
Justin
