This is the story of the dead can. But first I'd like to start off with a little background on myself.

Hi I'm Jacob. I had been chewing cope snuff for 8 years ever since I was 14. I guess that makes me 22 now. I work for myself building websites. I have a wonderfully beautiful girlfriend of 1 year who I love to death. I have a lot I think, I have friends and family. But I have my demons just like everyone else and I guess in coming here I'm trying to kill one of them.

I don't really know why I started chewing, only that I did. I don't really remember not having chew in my mouth. I know you're probably thinking that 8 years isn't that long. but for most of my life.. (that I can remember anywho) I've been chewing.

So yesterday I threw out all my cans all my spit bottles all my gross habits. I went to the gas station but instead of buying dip I bought Sunflower seeds.

My head hurts right now. I'm not really sure what I'm supposed to say... But thanks for reading. And thanks in advance for the support.

Welcome Jacob,

You've made the best decision of your life. And you're at the best place to make this decision stick.
Read and learn, read and learn, read and learn. Go to the March group and post roll every day. It's the most important thing we do here (besides not stuffing your face with shit). Making a daily commitment to yourself and this site that you won't use nicotine for the day is very powerful.
You can do this, and we can help you.
Is it gonna suck? yup
Is it gonna be tough? yup
Do you have support? yup
Is it gonna save your life? YUP!!

PM me if I can be of any assistance.
STAY STRONG-STAY QUIT!!

Brian

Welcome to the group my friend ....... I'm in the March group with you. Dr. Banner is right, this is going to suck. I'm on day 10, and yeah, it has been shitty. But here is the thing, you only have to do it once if you do it right. You have to man up, do anything, just don't cave. Use seeds, drink water, hell, put rocks in your mouth, just NO NICOTINE today. Just today. We will worry about tomorrow, tomorrow. Proud to be quitting with you. PM me if you need anything.

welcome Jacob!

what you said, was fine. One day of chewing is way too long for anybody in my opinion. I won't sugar coat this.... this shit is tough! It will test your intestinal fortitude, but it is possible. hunker down, drink lots of water and/ or friut juice, stay away from caffeine as much as possible, because without the poison in your system, caffeine will do weird things...

read read read......as much as you can on the site

one more thing, don't go to the gas/cancer staition for awhile, do yourself a favor and make a list and go to the grocery store instead...they have everything there and it's probably cheaper, plus you don't have to stare down the wall of tobacco products.
