Thanks for the support guys. Went to the gym today and had one of the best feeling work-outs ever, and I won a free t-shirt. Seems like ever since I decided to quit, good things have started happening to me randomly. I am proud to be QLF beside and with every single one of you guys! I found that the seeds have actually been working better for me than the hooch. i still use the hooch when i would normally have a dip in but not have a spitter (ie shower, working in the garden, etc.) for the rest of the time i just use seeds and have constructed a new special "quitter spitter" for myself out of a sawed off 2-liter bottle (patent pending assholes, dont none of yall be stealing my designs)

Hi guys, I have been lurking in the back of these forums for weeks, nay months, trying to pull my shit up enough to finally quit. March 1st was the day I got my shit together and finally did it. Today is my day three and I am embracing the suck. As to my history, I dipped for 22 years, more than half my life (I am 34) since my step brother and I stole a pouch of chatanooga chew from my uncle when I was 12 years old and I was hooked. At the time I finally quit, I was up to 2-2.5 cans a day, my wife has been on my butt to quit, and i am freaking out every time i see something weird around my mouth or face thinking its cancer. This shit is gonna end up killing me if i dont kill it first. I planned the best I could, I work a very stressful job (restaurant general manager) so I took 4 days off work, I have 12 cans of Hooch (rough wiskey) and several packs of spitz seeds. The fog is the hardest part for me, I am actually a very intellectual person (though I know this post looks grammatically atrocious), i cant stand the feeling of not being able to think right. I will embrace my quit because i have to, because the suck that it is, is nothing compared to the suck that dipping will end up bringing me. This suck is my penance, this suck is my armor, this suck is my own and i will own it. Today i am day 3 and i will see tomorrow clean. I have posted roll with the goons of june 15, and i will see you all in HoF.
I quit with this BAQ today! It'll suck until it doesn't and then it won't. It's that simple. Don't over think it. It's good that you have a plan. Hooch has saved me on countless occasions, and I don't feel guilty using it because it doesn't have any of that hazardous , carcinogenic (  how's that for being inteligente) crap in it that my Skoal did. Post roll every single day, and early. Also, cranberry juice helps a lot the first few days. Drink plenty of water and read, read, read on here. Knowledge is power and useful against an opponent with an IQ of zero.

Hey, bud, I'm a bar/restaurant general manager as well. Day 51 here. Trust me, you will get MUCH better at your job when you're not managing the business and the nic mistress at the same time. You will be much more effective and focused.

Post roll, one day at a time, rinse and repeat.

Congrats on a great choice, Talonad! Now let's reverse the suck. You don't get freedom for the asking. You have to earn it. And that is done one day at a time. As the poet John Donne (probably) said,

"Never send to know for whom the quit bell tolls. The quit bell tolls for thee." I'm pretty sure that is word for word what he said. Does that type of intellectualocity fire you up? It does me.

One thing that you will realize is that bad ass quitters are geniuses. Quitting is a privilege reserved to those who have the balls and brains to do it. Everyone who appears in the Quit Groups does...you included. Congrats!!!
