Hey everybody, just want to introduce myself quickly. I'm WhiteSoxFan and I live in Chicago. I haven't had a dip since yesterday. I have used many different types of nicotine but dip was always my preferred method. I am quitting for many reasons, most of all I am just sick of the stuff. It interferes with my appetite, my weight lifting, my job, my internship, my school (I am in Grad School), my relationships etc etc.
Without getting into too much detail, I am in recovery from other addictive substances. I have been clean from them for quite some time and have some great support. I am looking at quitting nicotine the same way. Quitting it "just for today" and then tomorrow will hopefully be the same. Its worked so far.
I should also mention that I actually work in the field of addictions as a social worker. So I know addiction very well. However, when it comes to my own problems, I don't know jack shit and I need others help to stay quit.
