So he posted a day 6 a couple days ago, then vanished. I'm putting this here just in case he ever comes back. I'm hopeful he will....
Harley rider,
Good Sunday morning to you. Noticed it's been a couple days since you were here. That's generally not a sign that things are going well with a new quit. Forgive the direct approach here, but got your email address through the KTC system and thought I'd drop a note.
You see, I know how it feels when trying to quit dipping. I dipped Copenhagen for nearly forty years. It is one MOTHER of an addiction and the withdrawal is absolutely not fun. But it can be done. I did it. Thousands of others do it. You can do it. You just have to make up your mind that you WANT it BAD enough to DO IT. I have run many extensive web searches over the past couple years trying to find a documented case of nicotine withdrawal actually killing someone. I can't find a single case. That tells me that no matter how bad you feel during a crave, if you gut it out, it will pass. You'll still be alive, and you'll be one step closer to freedom.
That's what I wanted to tell you. You need to decide, and from what I read, sooner, rather than later, cause you're damn near as old as me.... Time's ticking bubba!
Respectfully,
Joel
