hows it going, My name is Scott Marshall and i live in northern VA i Decide to quit dipping a couple days ago due to the fact that i just did not want to go the the gas station and buy a tin before work. So i went on to work and had alot of time to think about it and i decide i wanted to quit and have been dip free for 2 and a half days. my biggest concern is that i have close friends around that dip and how do i go about getting them to understand that things are going to have to change if that decide they want to dip when hanging out with me? thats it for now i loooking forward to getting to know other people that have quit and receive help in my journey to kicking this horrible habit.
Good to have you here, Scott. My situation was eerily (pun intended, it's Halloween) similar to yours. All of my childhood friends that I began chewing with are still going at it. Over the past week plus, it has been difficult to tell them no, and for them to understand. But as stated before, perhaps just how close of friends they are needs to be reevaluated if they struggle to understand your choice.
Regardless, just know that it is possible if you just stick to the rules and the procedure and roll one day at a time. A Week ago I was in literally the exact same boat as you, and now I'm 8+ days free. As modest as that seems, I couldn't be fuckin happier.
Congrats and best of luck to you. Bunches upon bunches of people ready to reach out should you need it!
