Wow guys. This all really helps. Its totally different getting support from people going through the same thing. I'm done justifying. I'm not going to let my age get in my way either. I am also glad there are some people that will actually hold me accountable. Also, I'm having a little trouble posting roll on my phone though. Can anyone walk me through it?
You can try checking out the phone post instructions here.

Or you can always just go to your quit group, then hit the "Add Reply" button on the top right to create a new empty post and then just post your name, days quit "please add me"


and somone will pick you up and post you in roll. We have a couple of folks that do that rather than screw up the roll call every day trying to post on their phones.


I highly recommend exchanging numbers and getting to know your quit brothers in September. They will be your "life vest" when you're drowning in a sea of craves. If you need anything PM me.

I have a strange psychology behind my addiction. I aalllways was able to justify it somehow. Stress, life problems, or anything.
Its not strange Jman. We all had are bullshit reasons to try to justify our addiction. The nic bitch does not make decsions based on logic. If you really think about it, there were no reasons that logically made sense to contine to chew. But the Nic Bitch had us convinced that we needed her. She is a lying, crazy bitch.

Statistically speaking, guys your age do not last long here. And I believe that it is because of the Nic Bitch's lies. You have been an a slave to her for many years now and she does not want to lose you. She will through everything she has at you to try too drag you back to the darkside.

At some point in your quit she will say "Look at all the people on this site that dipped for 20+ years. They were able to quit without major health risk. Hell you only chewed for 5 years. You could chew for a couple more years and still not even be close to these old guys".

Now is that reason logical? No! But it hooks a lot of young guys back. Just remember, Cancer does not discriminate against age.

Post roll and quit one day at a time. But do not ever let the nic bitch hold your young age over your head. You are smarter and stronger then her. You also have the strongest nicotine quit support group at your disposal. There is never a reason to use nicotine again.

I've was dipping for five years and now I am 19 years old. It might not seem like much but it is after all a quarter of my life. During 3 of those years I smoked too. I was a pack and a can a day. And now I am down to a can every 2 days. I have tried to quit for so many people in my life so many times. This site slapped me in the face though. It is my quit. I need to do it. I want to do it. Not for them this time but for me. I am tired of destroying myself to "get through" the day. I can see negative side effects from chewing now and I am scared. I am dreadfully scared. I am scared that I'm not strong enough, that I will cave like times before. I don't want it to be a part of my life anymore! I have a bright future, 3 jobs to work, and college to attend. I don't need the health risks and the costs in my way! I have a strange psychology behind my addiction. I aalllways was able to justify it somehow. Stress, life problems, or anything. I was tired of all my christian friends' clishe do it for your family and for your god. And I beat myself up for so long because I couldn't do it when it was for them. I am quitting though. Right now. No more putting it off. Its 6/2/12 2:43 am. And this is my quit date.
Jman, kick the nic bitch to the curb today. I've been on a never-ending battle with th nic bitch for the past 10 years and am proud to say I am quit today (day 3). We are in the same quit group and we are going to make it bro! Just hang in there and get rid of ALL of your dip paraphanelia....spit cups, old cans, new cans, whatever you have that resembles dip. Just throw it away and make it through today. Then, get up and repeat the process tomorrow. One day at a time on the road to freedom!
I am quit today!

jman19, the following is from Wedgie, he has been very inspirational on this road to freedom.

My man, you are in for a ride. Post roll early in THE day, not early in YOUR day. Get that promise in early and take big nic off the table.

Post roll. Read read read. Water. Read. Walk. Stay busy. Nyquil. Next thing you know Monday is here.

Quit with you.

jman19,
Glad you found the site and want to get your life back from the nic bitch. Yeah, you're an addict. Did you know that? I am too. Look in the mirror and tell the addict you're done. Flush all your dip and all nicotine, the hidden stuff too! Burn all your bridges. This is a no nicotine quit site. No patches, gum or cigs. Use toothpicks, regular gum, seeds, whatever you gotta do to not put the poison in your mouth.
Trust me, after 30 years, this is the only way to quit and stay quit. If I can do it, so can you. It is very simple to do, not easy, but very simple. We quit today, one day at a time.
1.Post Roll call daily, giving your word you will not dip today.
2. Keep your word
3. Get up in the morning and REPEAT.
Quit today with me. I am proud to quit with you!
Read everything you can on this site. Post in the chat room. Email me. Learn all you can. It is very hard to do, but it is DOABLE.
