I was up a bit late for class this morning, and I just got out for a break so I didn't have a chance to post roll until just a minute ago. But it has been posted.

Yeah I used to look around at older people that smoked or dipped and said hey they made it. What a frigging joke and a huge lie to tell yourself. They have wasted a lot of good years of their lives being addicted to tobacco... It's always a great time to realize that you want to quit dipping, but it doesn't come around that often in life, so seize the opportunity and get away from this crap for good!!!

Ping, welcome. You're too damn young for this shit. Don't concern yourself with the other men in your family that have dipped their whole lives, this is about you. You're a young buck, so kick this asshole (nic or nicotine) right in the fuckin nuts! Be strong man, have faith and hold the fuck on because this quit ain't easy but it's damn worth it.

Ping, you are correct, you do have the world by the balls, if you live long enough that is. So quit like a mutha fucker today, right now, and live how you want to live.

Good for you Ping. Read the Welcome Wagon, learn to post roll, and DO IT. It is the basic building block of your quit. Lots of senior Quit Masters here that can help you along, like they are me. Lean on the knowledge here and know its not just you. We quit together. Every day. Welcome to the rest of your life. I quit with you today.

Twenty Years Dumb
« on: April 25, 2014, 02:38:00 AM »
Well here's a little bit about me:

I have been dipping for 3 years now and never felt a need to quit, always thought I was special and nothing bad could ever happen to me. Reason for this thinking being that many men in my family have dipped their entire lives and nothing life threatening has ever been an issue. Ignorance is bliss I suppose. What I never accounted for were the day to day battles, the necessity and the physical and mental changes it would have on my way of life. I'm sick of making excuses and lacking drive to better myself, I'm sick and tired of being complacent. I'm a 20 year old kid, I'm at one of the best engineering schools in the country, the road is laid out for me and I ultimately have the world by the balls. But this addiction is holding me back and I am done with it, I'm here to quit and quit for good.
