Well im new to this site but the few people i have talked to already have helped me..

Im a police officer from Mi. I have been chewing for 20 + YEARS and 4 days ago, I decided that it was time to "Put That Stupid Ass Can Down !!!" Ive used several reasons to keep chewing but the only reason i wanted to stop is because i dont want to die just yet..

I remember the first time i dipped...I was working at the airport, for Delta Airlines. I was really stressed out at work all the time and my friend asked me to try cherry skoal... Holy shit...My head starting spinning and I got sick to my stomach...wow great stress releiver huh... two days later i was hooked like a dope fiend and i have never looked back..

I had cancer 3 years ago...unrelated to chewing but never the less "cancer".. i had to go through surgury and radition... Not my best time in life.. U would think that would of scared me to stop but not me...I was recovering in the hospital and my friend snuck me a can of chew....i went to radition every day for 6 weeks...chewed every day on the way there and on the way home.. I was so stupid.. I cant blame the tobacco co for my problem..the salesmen from skoal didnt pull my lip out and jam in a wad for me to try...that was my own stupidty.. I have kids now...a wonderful wife and things to look foward to in my life now that i didnt have before.. 4 days ago I decided ......it was time to 'PUT THE CAN DOWN FOR GOOD"

Welcome to the site. You've been here long enough to talk to some people and that is a good thing. I know they have given you all the standard advice, so I won't bother repeating most of it.

What I can tell you is this...you are going to want this quit for more reasons than that family of yours. You have got to want this for you. Maybe you get this, maybe you don't. I know when I first came on this site 240 days ago, I was told the same thing. And my first reaction was, "Who the fuck are you? I think wanting to do this for my family is a good and honorable thing." It is a good and honorable thing to do, but what happens IF the family isn't there? Do you want to quit badly enough to stay the course without them as your reason to quit? If the answer is no, then you will fail, you will cave. You have got to want this quit for YOU...no matter what.

It worries me (for your quit) that you HAD (remission or gone-gone?) CANCER yet still were dipping and did so after the fact. That's pretty much the same as having your kevlar in the trunk and never putting it on...even when you know you're going into a hot spot...

Get numbers, get together a solid quit plan, stay active on this site. Search your inner being and answer the one, most important question...DO I REALLY WANT TO QUIT?

Welcome xander!!

Read as much as you can on this site. You will see how much you have in common with all of us. Reasons we started, reasons we didn't stop, reasons why we have stopped.
It's scary to think that you got cancer and was shoving that shit in your face to and from treatment. But that's the power of the Nic Bitch. That fucking whore has no mercy.
Good news is that you have come to your senses.
Better news is that you have found this web site.
Best news is that your going to do it, and we are going to help you.

Your 4 days into your Quit already, that's a major achievement my law enforcment brother!!! You've already got most of the nicotine out of your system, now it's all the mental shit.

Join your Quit group if you haven't already and learn how to post roll. Make it a point to post every day, you will be surprised at the power that carries. Promise yourself and all of us that you won't use nicotine for the day and then make it happen.

When you need help, MAKE SURE YOU REACH OUT FOR HELP!!!!

Feel free to PM me and I will give you my phone number. Call me anytime you feel like you're going to cave.

STAY-STRONG-STAY QUIT!!!

Brian
