Quote from: e-piddlesHello. My name is Egan and I'm addicted to chewing tobacco. I started early, when I was 14. My buddy Fred stole a few wintergreen pouches from his dad, and he, johnny, eli and I thought we were so fucking cool walking around the track during recess, with those packets of death in our mouth.

Twenty four years later and I'm still doing it. Except now I hide in the bathroom at work, or take inexplicable trips to the store to indulge in my habit for a few minutes.

I've quit before. Many times in fact. I quit this time last year, and it lasted all the way till Christmas. But on the 17 hour drive home alone, I cracked. Actually, that's BS. I cracked way before that. I was thinking about it in the back of my mind months in advance. "I'll be all alone, it's a super long drive, maybe I'll just grab one can." Nine months later and here we are. Back to a can a day.

I have two boys. Torin is 2 1/2. His baby brother Rhys is 6 weeks old. Who the fuck do I think I am? How dare I jeopardize their future!? If I die, what kind of life will they have. If I lose half my face, what will that do to them!?

This ends today. I will never, ever, chew again. I clearly can't do it alone. So I pray to God your support with guide me though. And in return I pledge my support to you.
Wow. It is awesome that you have put your foot down and have decided to quit!

We operate here on a daily promise. You only need to keep it for 24 hours. Your quit group is here December 2016.

All of the folks in this group are in the same boat that you are - quit with them every day and you all win together!

I quit with you today! Stranger999 - day 376
^^^^^like he said. Congrats on putting your foot down. Now jump on into posting roll in December and let the rest of your life happen.. remember this is for you but in turn everyone will benefit. .
Egan,

Please allow me to echo Christopher J and correct one of your mis-statements: "I've quit before. Many times in fact. "

You have NEVER quit. You have only STOPPED. Here, you will QUIT. You will do that by daily posting your promise that you won't use nicotine in ANY form. Then you will HONOR that promise. You will become a full-fledged member of December, 2016. You will exchange digits with your fellow quitters. You will build a web of accountability. Learn how this site works, then WORK IT. You will not be disappointed.

Quit with you today, and, if you're on roll, tomorrow.

ChristopherJ

Egan,

Congrats on posting roll! I agree with the bad asses above that you are ready to own this. Not to nit pick, but you haven't really quit before. You stopped. To fight this addiction you will have to understand that there is never ever "just one". Read as much as you can on this site. It sure helped me learn that I was not alone. You got this !

One day at a time.

CJ
Don't be afraid.  You are not alone.

Quit now so your boys will never remember you as a dipper. My 2 do which is a regret for me. If I can quit, so can you.
Some of my fondest and clearest memories are peeing in places that aren't bathrooms.

Quote from: e-piddlesThanks fellas - I posted roll this morning - but F'ed it up by putting my name under the supporter list in my group. Haha. I'll get it right tomorrow.
The only true roll fuck up is... not being on it!

Well done.

Now... commit to this. Own it.
Well, it's one louder, isn't it? It's not ten.

Welcome in...

Break it down brother. Forever is just too damn intimidating. It's not manageable. A day is, though. One day. One hour. One minute. Sometimes this addiction of ours will tap you so bad, quitting for the rest of your life will give you a panic attack.

Screw that.

Own that decision today and make the bitch pay for ruining your life for 24 years.

You can do this.
I did.
We are.

You. Will.
Well, it's one louder, isn't it? It's not ten.

It is very simple! We quit for today! We wake up! Do it again tomorrow!! One day at a time!
We walk in each others quit shoes, it may be a little different but ultimately the same exact thing

"Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers."
