I am a young one, at 21 years old. I have been dipping since I was 17, around a can or so a day since I was 18. I realized that I can't go very long without a dip, and would like to kill this thing off, as well as learn how to keep it away for the rest of my life.
I have attempted to quit the past 6 months, the longest I made it is 3 days.
I am joining the forum so that I can learn from people who have struggled and overcome addictions that are most likely more severe than mine. I will post daily and look forward to getting rid of this habit before it becomes a long term addiction.
Addiction is addiction bro. Just because your a young buck at 21 doesn't meant you're any less of a junkie than the rest of us.
Anyway, that really doesn't matter. What matters is that you are here and we want to help you. You are very wise to quit at age 21. I wish I had but I was too stupid.
Read the salmon colored WELCOME CENTER at the upper left corner of the page and start posting roll.
Also read through intros, words or wisdom, hall of fame speeches, etc...it will all be helpful.
You might not have been chewing as long as many on this site but the fact that you could not make it more than 3 days without, should tell you that this stuff has quite a hold on you.
I gotta be honest though, I see a lot of hot shot 21 year olds come in here wanting to quit and then after a few days they are gone like a fart in the wind. Don't be a fart, bro.
Quitting WON'T BE EASY, but it is possible. If my DUMB ass can do it, anyone can. If it makes you feel better I quit at age 37 after 15 years of stuffing my cake hole full of cancer candy. I was up to 2 cans a day of Kodiak when I went cold turkey after having a panic attack when I thought I had cancer. Don't let yourself get there!!!
I WAS A MESS, but I didn't give up and I did not die. Guys here held me up until I could stand on my own and then I spouted a sack and really got into the quit.
You got this! We are here for you.
