Howdy ya'll from Fort Worth, Texas
Was recommended to this site by a former dipper of a can a day Copenhagen.
Been a dipper since junior year of HS, almost 9 years ago. Went through a can (Skoal Straight) every two days, about 5 dips per day.
Mom is a dental hygienist and has been trying to get me to quit ever since she found out I dipped.
Today is Day 1, had my last dip at 8pm last night. Flushed the rest of the can down the toilet. Quitting cold turkey, no medications or nicotine alternatives.
Thank you for the site and support, what a great idea!
