Quote from: Zoe'sDadDay 19 - Feels good to be a level-headed man able to have conflict without having to run and grab my "blankie" weed. In conflict with my wife it feels much better to be able to be clear and passionate without going over the top and being hurtful. I quit with you all today. I don't know if I will use tomorrow but I promise to not use today. Memorial Day PS: Remember, the greatest way to support our troops is to only put them in harms way and/or separate them from their families when the threat to our sovereignty is without a doubt worth the cost in blood and treasure.
I'm honored to b quit with you.

Quote from: Zoe'sDadDay 18 - Memorial Day Weekend. Really enjoying spending time with family, completely free of mood swings. I would normally be stealing off somewhere (probably the bathroom) to sneak in a ninja dip in order to be level-headed and nice enough to hang around family and friends. Not today! Not this weekend! Free! Truly free! I will remain vigilant. This freedom is one thought and emotion away from slavery. Today is my focus. I will not use nicotine in any way. I will guard against the thoughts and emotions that lead to physical relapse. I quit with you all today!
It only gets better! Doing great. Damn proud to be quit with you!
Tobacco is so addictive it took me a year after a massive heart attack, in which doctor confirmed caused from dipping to finally put a lid on the bitch! ODAAT EDD

Quote from: DagrangerYou've got this right. We are not in a fight against dip...we are in a fight against ourselves and our addiction, which spews lies and bullshit that make a lot of sense when you are really struggling. Know those lies for what they are, and build your quit one day at a time. Good luck.
I like the fact you used stopped vs. quit. We all stopped many times only to cave, make this you ONLY quit.
Jump on these two's coat tails and hang on for the quit truth!

Some of my fondest and clearest memories are peeing in places that aren't bathrooms.

Lots of water and hookup with some fellow quitters. Get involved in this site. Plenty of things to learn and to occupy your mind. It helps get through The Suck. WATER! WATER! WATER! I can't stress that enough. WATER! Some fruit juice is good as well.

Quote from: RNGLockWelcome aboard. This quit isn't easy, but it's well worth it. Get on over to the August quit group, introduce yourself, post your promise early every day, and get involved. Oh, and I couldn't agree more about the no drinking part.

Congrats on a great decision, Zoe's Dad. Quitting is done ONE DAY AT A TIME. Don't think about tomorrow, next week, next year, whatever. We'll deal with them when they get here. All you need to focus on is what you can control...TODAY, THIS 5 MINUTES. NOW is all that matters. And, you're quit. So congrats!!!

Stay strong, stay quit.

12 years, various brands, mainly skoal.

Sick of being a slave to nic.
I am quit.

I have stopped before but always went back. Justified a "reward can" or some dumbass shit reason.

I can't drink during this time. Too risky. It will dull my will.
