Great call on finding a better way to quit. Lots of us floundered around quitting and caving, quitting and caving, knowing we wanted to quit, but lacking the tools to do so. This site brought me all I needed to really stop and quit for good. Read all you can here and post roll every day (don't get lazy on this). I'm guessing by the 617 you are a Masshole hockey guy. if so, I know how the party after games goes on and on, lot of drinking, and lots of guys dipping. Have a game plan for those nights, gum, fake chew, seeds, etc. good luck. You can do this.

I have been going to the doctors and dentist to address the problems. Something is wrong but am being proactive about it. Money isn't an issue and my dentist said she is 99% Sure I don't have mouth cancer. The anxiety is getting to me and even tho I am quit I keep thinking I will get It down the road. It is getting to the point where it is all I think about and is getting in the way of my daily life. All in all it does feel good to be quit !
Well congrats on the quit. Get ahold of the anxiety quick before it takes over in a bad way. (Depersonalization, like myself) Go to the Dr. and tell them what you are going thru, don't be afraid to ask for help. I am 232 days into it and still have anxiety attacks.
All those toxins we put in our bodies for all those years, lets be thankful mouth cancer didn't show up and all we got out of it was anxiety.
Stay positive, I quit with you today.

Doing all that you have done is great! Congrats on the quit! If you have read all over this site then you know to drink plenty of water and to get some numbers of fellow quitters. Drink a bit of fruit juice and then drink some more water. Did I mention to drink water? Then, well, it is that important. Drink tons of water. It helps the suck not suck as bad.

I see you're posting roll. That's good. Quit one day at a time.

As far as your health concerns - make an appointment with a dentist. Ignoring it gets you no where. Tell them you are quit, and want a health screening.

If you're having trouble affording a visit to the dentist, you were spending money on dip, right? Put the money you would have been spending in an envelope. When you have enough set aside, go see the dentist.

Your health is your most valuable asset. Protect it.

Hi y'all. Not sure if this is the place to do intros but On March 8th I noticed that I had a soar throat and a pain in my jaw. I brushed it off as just the onset of a cold and a normal toothache nothing serious. I told myself I was not going to dip again. Made it until my birthday 12 days later dip free and unfortunately caved. I dipped for two seconds and threw it out. I was so disgusted with myself and knew that I had to change my approach to quitting. I had gone on this site prior to read people's stories and to justify my usage and convince myself I will be ok if I quit now. The other day was fooling around on the site and found the quit forms and realized I Am not alone in this fight so I signed up. I got through the first few days out of fear. I have used chewing tobacco every day multiple times a day since I was 17 1/2. I just turned 24 and finally looked in the mirror and realized how long i had been using it. Since I have been having a pain in my mouth and tounge and a swollen salivary gland, I naturally googled the symptoms and now fear the worse. I have suffered from severe anxiety the past few weeks thinking that I have every cancer in the book which has scared me into not using it or even thinking about using it again. There is so much I want to do in my life and I am afraid I won't be able to do any of it. I'm quitting for myself, my family and my future family.
