Dude I wanted to quit when I was young also! Well guess what 55 ain't young, you can do this but don't be fooled it sucks, learn to appreciate the suck. Anxiety and depression have been part of my life with or without dip. I can promise you I'd much rather deal with them without nicotine. You have it out of your system but that doesn't mean the bitch goes away. Hang around here when she starts screwing with your mind

Started dipping a little over 3 years ago and progressively got worst to where I was dipping for hours at a time, full horseshoe. I've always thought it was disgusting and have wanted to quit for a long time now but just haven't been able to. I just recently moved to Washington State with my girlfriend and figured leaving everything I knew would be a big enough change that I could quit at the same time. I was also noticing my receding gumline was getting way worse, hurting, and teeth were yellowish despite brushing. My last dip was May 29th. I had one pinch and threw away the can. Since then I have had waaaay too many sunflower seeds but haven't caved. It has been very very tough and I recently started feeling depressed. I know it will be worth it in the end but the feeling of having a weight off my shoulders has been replaced by anxiety and depression.
Congrates dude. You are on the way. Just take it one day at a time and keep posting roll. Make your promise daily and stay quit for that day. Simple enough. The gums will get better. My dentist is lovin this group and said my gums already look 100% better.

PM me or text me if you need a good slap around. I'll send you my number.
