indecisiveness

[theo3wood]

Over the last year and a half, I have wanted to quit dipping and made a few attempts on my own. I can't seem to stick with the decision even though I know what I want.

I'm sure there are many 10-20 year tobacco users who have been waffling the decision for as long as they are using. I sometimes picture myself 10 or even 20 years from now still using tobacco, and still unable to pull this together.

The thought of quitting forever is how I approach it. I understand the 1 day at a time thing that you guys talk about, but this is a commitment for life, and I don't see it any other way.

Make sure you reread yourself and stay committed. It is all you.

Wow, talk about a delayed response....

I wonder if there is some way to figure out where this guy lives. (Notgod/Radoo/Icebox)

What? I can dream, can't I? :rolleyes:

Radoo, WTF man ?!? I know you've been ripped on and alot of peeps have already torn you a new asshole for your fuckup...... I'm not usually a good motivator and I don't show my face enough around here and support as much as I should, but for some reason I found my self personally responding to your fuck up. Dude.... you CAN do this man. You need to keep your mouth BUSY, especially for the first 10 days. You've read it a thousand times here.....sunflower seeds, gum, fake dip (herbal), the list goes on and on. You can work on the oral fixation later, get the Nicotine the fuck out of your body for at least 2 weeks bro. FREE yourself, don't let US Tobacco use you like a little bitch so they can get rich. Look at it as if the CEO of US Tobacco is thinking.. " This little bitch Radoo is gonna buy me a Yacht with a lifetime of spending on my product. I have that weak, gullable, little, fucker right where I want him." Are you gonna take that shit man?!? Yeah, sure life is a bitch and it helps you get by, but I know you know someone who has never used it and they get by just fine don't they? Now man the fuck up already.

p.s. if you need someone to talk to when the shit gets rough, I'll PM you with my cell #.

According to MSN Dictionary the defintion of attempt is as follows:


attempt




at·tempt [ ə témpt ]


transitive and intransitive verb (past and past participle at·tempt·ed, present participle at·tempt·ing, 3rd person present singular at·tempts)

Definition:

try to do something: to try to do something, especially without much expectation of success
===================================================

Take a good look at that definition and you will find where the root of your failure lies. Click on the underlined text above if you think I've altered it in any way. "Without much expectation of success".

We don't try here, we quit. We don't make half assed attempts, we draw lines in the sand each day, lines that WILL NOT be crossed. Many quitters here are quit for life but they are biting off that life one day at a time. That is tangible. You can give your word to not use tobacco today, and you can keep that word. It's something you can get your arms around.

So welcome to our community. It will be the difference when you decide to quit. If you are going to attempt it, we may not be the thing to do.

THE DECISION

Quitting dip comes down to one thing... a decision to quit. I can't spell it out any simpler than that. Sure, it's much easier for me to say that today now that I've quit than it would have been on day 1 or day 10, but every day that goes by, I believe it more and more.

I'm not here to tell you that the decision is easy to make because it's certainly not. There are some days when the decision is downright nearly impossible to make. But it's a decision that needs to be made on a daily basis.

There are many things in our lives and in our quits that we have no control over. We can't control the weather, we can't control how people view us, we can't control what happens at the office, we can't control whether we are sick. In our quits, we can't control the withdrawal that we go through, we can't control WHAT symptoms we'll experience nor can we control how long those symptoms persist.

To look at it that way doesn't look good. But remember... the decision.

You can DECIDE to put a dip in.
You can DECIDE to NOT put a dip in.
You can DECIDE whether you want to continue to be a slave to the can.
You can DECIDE to LIVE your life WITHOUT dip.

I've had conversations with other quitters and cavers. I've been asked what makes me different (than someone who's struggling). The answer is simple... I made my decision. I'm not any stronger, I'm not any better and quite frankly I'm not any different. I'm an addict just like all of you... I made my decision. I made my decision this morning just like I have every morning since July 24th, 2006. I'll make a decision tomorrow as well.

When you're thinking that quitting isn't possible... when you're thinking that everything is out of your control and you NEED your dip... make a decision.

You're in a place where people can help you once you're made your decision but we can't make it for you. We're here to help.

DECIDE to let us help.
DECIDE to not dip today.
DECIDE to live life WITHOUT dip or chew.
DECIDE to live.

This thing is simple -- it's decision time my friend...
