Two Days

[mntwins]

Well, when I quit the first time, it didn't quite work.. I decided to do it again December 3rd, 2012. I have been clean for 28 days, and I can honestly say that this is the happiest I have ever been. I am proud of myself for something. There is so much more in life than to have it shrouded around something as pointless as that. It's not worth it, and I am glad that I realized that before it was too late. I don't know what I was thinking. I was doing something that was killing me... It was pointless. But now, I feel good. Some days are rough, but I just suck it up because that is how I choose to live my life. I feel like a new person. Seriously. I was never expecting it. My purpose this time was stronger. I looked at those god forsaken pictures of the lip cancer patients... They were so gross. I could never live with myself like that. So I quit. And I love it.
Thank you guys for all the input at the beginning of my process. I know I am not out of the woods yet, but I am pretty dang close!

When you make a significant life style changes (quitting nicotine, alcohol, weight loss,) look around at your "friends" and their responses. You real friends will support you while your "good time buddies" will support themselves and their choices.

Drop em and free yourself of that extra baggage that is slowing you down.

Welcome mntwins,

You will do this, one day at a time....

One Day at a time and the dumbass dipper became a smartass quitter!!!

Take dip off the table each morning by posting roll.
Keep it off the table each day by not dipping.
Get to sleep, wake up and REPEAT!! 'zombie'

get into the chat room for some smelly quit talk. They'll make you laugh so hard you'll forget your present crave. Or they might piss you off cause they care about your quit. Proud to be quit with YOU sir!! 'bang head'

Well, I had been doing this for about 8 years, and I had it planned to quit this Sunday. I did quit, and I haven't had a dip for two days. I have been questioning myself a whole lot, and support from my friends isn't exactly amazing. Some are very helpful, but some have actually told me to keep doing it. I know I can quit, and I know it will be hard. But I can do it. Right?

Why are you quitting? You can do it if your reasons are strong enough to overcome your addiction. Yes you can quit. We can support you better if you tell us why you are quitting now. What was the final thing or reason to motivate you to flush it?

Also your "friends" that tell you to keep dipping....Tell them to take a whole can of chew and shove it up their asses! They may think they are cool or fun. They are nothing short of miserable addicts that put a can a chew (Their addiction) before God and relationships.

That can is what rules them. Killing the can will free you. You will have so much more value in life. You will appreciate simple things and love your friends and family more.

My friend was an alcoholic. I flew to vegas to watch him play and hang out. He came over to my table and saw that I was drinking. He avoided me. I felt like such an ass after I realized that he was seriously quit and would give up his friendship with me to stay quit.

When I saw how committed he was, I gave up drinking to support my friend and now many friends. Real friends unite and fight together and love to cheer the success of each other.

Quit with us and post roll every day. You will be fine and free.

What kind of "friends" are they if they encourage you to slowly kill yourself. They must be some self-loathing people not only to do it to themselves but to encourage you to join in the homicide scene. A friend is someone who will stand beside you and call you out if you're fucking up. As they look at you through the eyes of an addict, they are seeking company and validation that what they are doing is okay. Stand up and tell them that, as their friend, you cannot sit idly by and watch them kill themselves. If they want to continue down the path of destruction, they will have to do it without you. You quit and that makes you a winner, don't forget it.

Anyone who told you to keep doing it needs to be biatch slapped, might as well tell you to posion yourself and slooowwwly commit suicide. Get with this person and read the Kern story, look at some cancer pics, and other heart breaking stories on here. This ain't no joke, this shit WILL KILL YOU and all the while you are its personal slave.

Can you do it? Or course you can, and if you are really serious the support you will get from this sight will be amazing and will help you to freedom. HELP is a key and important word. Peeps here surely wont tell you to "keep doing it" but they will provide advice, encouragement, and will be there for you when you need to vent or cry and will slap you on the ass and pump you up when you celebrate a milestone or progress. But we cant do it all for you, just HELP you along.

You will have to do the heavy lifting and trust me it will not be easy. I'm on my 80th day quit and am still battling. Please don't let that scare you though, as things do get better but I have to be honest with you. Why do you want to quit by the way, you did not mention that. Hopefully its FOR YOU AND YOU only.

If you're really serious visit the "welcome center" which is the salmon colored tab at the top left of the page. It will explain how to post roll which is the backbone of this sight. Also check your inbox (1).

Of course you can! We all can 1 day at a time. Go post roll, do it every day and keep your word! Check your inbox

I did it for 15-years and now I've gone a week without it, so yes, you can do it. I think it's all mental. If you read all the stuff on here about what is happening to your body right now then you'll be able to fight off the urges.

For me, the three days were the worst. I kept going about life as usual, but I was in a fog and couldn't really concentrate. Staying busy, trying to stick to my routine, and going to the gym seemed to help. On the fourth day I was still somewhat in a fog, but I could tell it was lifting. By day five I felt great - not only physically, but mentally, because I knew I had just cleared a big hurdle.

Now it's just a matter of one day at a time, posting on here each morning and vowing to stay quit each day. I consider the 'triggers' like demons - and for me it's better to go after the demons head-on, rather than to avoid them. I had a few beers over the weekend while playing Madden on the PS3 - two things that always had dip associated with them in the past. I made it through that night without any problems at all (chewed gum instead of TimberWolf.) Small victories like that feel great and make me realize that I can do this. Not to mention that there's been no link between chewing gum and cancer.
