Wow.. You are starting out on the right foot by deciding to quit at a young age and flushing that shit down the toilet (only after you dug it out of the dumpster) Smart move... Keep it up man... The next 3-4 days are gonna suck... Do not relent and remember every single minute that you were in the shit, cause you can use it as motivation to never return to that.. Go get something to keep your mouth busy like seeds, hard candy (I really like licorice sticks), whatever... Just stay quit today and rinse and repeat tomorrow...

You can do it!

I appreciate all of the advice. I've been reading probably 4 hours now, and have no plans of stopping. Love this site!

I'd tell your girlfriend that you are an addict, and that you choose today to quit an addiction you hid from her. It'd help her understand what you are going to go through. I quit with you today.

Thanks MB!
Minny i took your advice and went ahead and flushed it. not gonna lie, liked the way it felt as it went down
Great job, Irtrey (strictly speaking, I think it is "Iamtrey." But to each his own...)

Congrats on a great choice. What good is that MBA if it sits behind a lip full of poison? You might kill yourself before you get to use it. And that would suck.

Click on the Welcome Center link and read. Learn how and why we post roll. Then do it. Take it One Day At A Time...and DON'T get ahead of yourself. Don't think about tomorrow, next week, next year of whatever. We'll deal with them when they get here. Just focus on what you can control...being quit TODAY. Anybody can go one day, right? That's all that matters!

YOU GOT THIS!!!

Read, read and read young one. Lots of quitters your age come buzzing though here like a fly in the wind. A few days later,, gone, never to be heard of again. Learn your enemy, it knows you. Knowledge is power.

The poison sucks. I hate it. I hated it this morning, I hated it at noon, I hated it at supper and I hate it tonight. I enjoy hating it so much I'm going to wake up tomorrow and start over hating it. I quit with anyone that wants to hate it with me.

My name is Trey. I am 24 years old, a college student working on my Masters of Business Administration with a concentration in Accounting. I have been dipping since I was 17 around two cans a day. I have made half hearted attempts in the past but have realized that this is not how I want to live my life. I hide this from my long term girlfriend and am tired of the lies and guilt. I am tired of wasting money time and energy dipping. I just tossed the remainder of my cans in the trash and threw it into the dumpster. Today begins a new day in my life and i can not wait. I am fully committed and am looking forward to going through this journey with all of you.
Trey
I think you should fish those cans out of the dumpster and flush it down the toilet.
i like that idea minny...or maybe our new guy here can dump it on the ground, dump some lighter fluid on it and set afire...
Welcome Trey! You have come to the right place to quit. Every time I read about a quitter of your age I wish I would have done the same. Let me give you one warning...it will never get easier for you than now. I waited 33 years before I quit! Everyday is a battle that I will win. Post roll everyday and quit on.

Good Lord i wish i would have made that decision when i was your age...you have your whole life ahead of you. You need to go to the welcome center....learn how to post roll, you'll be in the july quitting group, and you need to read read read everything this site has to offer. Ask as many questions as you can to the vets on here...they are wise. We don't bullshit here, we quit one day at a time. We promised today that we wouldn't use nicotine today...and i know i'll wake up and do the same tomorrow. So Welcome!!!
