I have dipped for just over a year and a half, and I'm done with it. I have tried quitting but the community I am in almost every male person around me dips. I am going off to college next year and I don't want girls to look at me and think "ew look at his yellow teeth and big gums". I want to be happy without a dip in my mouth and be able to say no. I've chewed since I was 16 and I want to say I quit before I was out of high school, and shit there's only a month left of that so I need to put my ass into gear, one of my friends suggested this site and I'm desperate for someone to goto when I go through the withdrawals. I usually chew a can and a half a day.
Hey Joeyconeill,
Dude it's totally possible. I'm 13 days quit in a community very similar to what you describe. I am around guys EVERY DAY who use, but I don't. I chose to quit yesterday. I chose to quit today. I will choose to quit tomorrow. It's that simple - HATE the nicotine (the "Nic Bitch") and come here for support.
Your plan worries me though, and you need to think about why you are quitting. You will fail if you are not quitting for YOU. Forget girls, forget bragging rights, or any other external reason.
IF you are serious and quitting for yourself, post your Day 1. Post roll every. single. day. and keep your promise not to use nicotine in any form - you do that and you'll have my full support.
What say you?
