Day 4 coming to an end. Started Wellbutrin, no noticeable differences. Definitely had some strong cravings today, but no chance of caving. Relying on seeds and chewing gum. Drinking water and constantly visiting the forums to remind me of my quit. I've had mini battles in my head about my quit, but I'm still standing strong. Stayed quit today and gonna stay quit tomorrow. ODAAT
Cowboy, you have some quit stud's on your side already. My advice, take full advantage of them ,trade numbers, and most of all I noticed you went to eat with family. How damn great was it to sit there enjoy dinner and basically not rush to put that disgusting shit in your mouth? I wasted alot of valuable family, which I will never get back! Take full advantage of this opportunity to have people on your side that's been through the exact same shit your going through, you post your Roll early every damn day and you will have all the support you need. Damn proud of you! Quit on!
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

Told my doc I kicked the nic bitch to the curb and he suggested Wellbutrin. Anyone have any thoughts or opinions about that?
Do you have issues with anxiety? If yes it might be worth it. A lot of people on here have used anti anxiety meds to help with their quits. You stopped for what 6 months last time? How did you feel?

Slept thru most of today so far. Day 3. Wish I hadn't. However I posted roll and promised myself and all of you that I quit with yall today. About to go to dinner with the wife and little girl. Almost at that 72 hour benchmark.
Keep your guard up. She will lull you to sleep and when you least expect it she will hit you over the head

I told the wife, she's excited. I'm excited. Posted roll, stopped by a gas station on the way home from work this morning and grabbed some seeds. Stayed away from the nasty shit behind the counter. I quit today with all of you. One day at a time. 'oh yeah'

"go back to my full flavor Grizzly Wintergreen Longcut"

No more romancing... That doesnt sound right....

Thats a lie. Like saying:
My cold blue steal pistol stuck in my mouth.
Kissing my warm cudley diamondback rattlesnake.
Shooting my pretty warm herion in my vains.
Ready for my next full flavor Chemo shot.

See it for what it is.... Its a lie.
Its your addiction that used to rule you.
And its next plan is to turn one cell wrong....
FOR WHAT?

You were not created to need poison.
Let's not try to die early.
Proud to quit with you today.
ODAAT...EDD

Day 1 is coming to a close, nicotine free. It wasn't easy, especially being at the firehouse where there's quite a few chew addicts. I'm proud of myself so far. I'm feeling antsy and a little jittery. I've had chewing gum, sunflower seeds, or cough drops in my mouth most of the day. All my tins were thrown out last night along with the spit bottles. I haven't told my wife, or really anyone outside of the firehouse yet. Yall are it for me. I want to make some headway before I spread the news, at least a week into it. I've stopped dipping before, but started up shortly later, I've tried bacc-off, only to deviate from the program and go back to my full flavor Grizzly Wintergreen Longcut. Anyway, I want to do this for myself. My wife wants me to as well, but I don't want that to distract this momentum I have going. I'm pretty scatter-brained right now, which doesn't help my adult adhd haha. That about sums up my feelings at this point. Still motivated. Let's do it again tomorrow.
I saw this same post in March 16. Let me repeat my reply so hopefully you see it. Don't hold back tell everyone you know that you have quit. Build accountability for yourself. When you say you want to make some headway before you tell people I hear I don't want to tell anybody so I don't look like a pussy caver if I can't do it! By doing this you are building in a planned cave. The day I quit I put it on facebook and told everyone because I wanted the pressure of failing. Make your promise every day and keep it. Repeat the next day. Quitting is simple but it is not easy. You can do this if YOU WANT IT. Keep posting roll early and every day. Read everything you can in here.
You're absolutely correct. I like the way you roll. I'll let me wife know as soon as I get home from work in the morning. Thanks

Hey Cowboy,

The best decision you've ever made, and Jarhead your in the right place as you suspected. Post roll early everyday, make your promise and stick to it. Its that EASY, yeah right, you and both know if something easy probably not worth doing and sticking out, never easy. What I can Say, very doable if you pay attention and drink the coolaid, I dipped before, during, and after the Marine Corp and it took me 30 yrs to find another brotherhood that could help me stay quit. Pm when you need digits, because theres not if, when the nic bitch comes a calling you need brothers and a plan. I quit with you today Cowboy!

The time has come. No turning back and no giving in. You've posted up and it's as easy as that. There's a buncha hose draggers and jar heads roaming around these hallowed halls. Gym, water, read, and more water...Welcome aboard! Let's do it again tomorrow!

The best decision you've ever made! Get ready, sack up, and remember the hell your about to go through; that way you never ever, not for any reason, go back to the shit in your lip!! I used Cope Snuff, can a day for nearly 20 years, and if I can do it, then you for sure as hell can do it! I'm on day 77, and this site works as long as you use it; and only promise to quit one day at a time!!! Get in your pre hall of fame group and post that day one if you have not already!!! PM me if you need anything!!
