Hello everyone. Today is the 3rd time I'm trying to quit. I've been dipping for about 8 months. Stupidly bought a can when I was legally allowed to on the urging of my friends. It quickly escalated to me dipping a can a day. I'm ready to quit to take my life back. I know I'm tougher and stronger than this addiction, and after really getting ready and manning up, I just know this time I'm gonna make it. I thought I had it down last time but some huge life changes came up and before I knew it I had begun dipping again. I came here after reading some stories and reading a lot on the website. I really hope I can find support here, as all my friends who dip (since I'm still very young) believe they are invincible to cancer for at least a few years. I've decided I want my life back. THank you for taking time to read this intro.

Sean Marsee was about your age and thought he was invincible too , google his name , read his story.
"CLOSE THE DOOR. In my opinion, it?s the single most important step in your final quit. There is one moment, THE moment, when you finally let go and surrender to the quit. After that moment, no temptation will be great enough, no lie persuasive enough to make you commit suicide by using tobacco."
