Man, DV I just read your two post. The second one sounds like a guy whose ready. I know you can do this. Our minds will do some messed up things to try and get us to weaken our resolve. You're in charge and you decide what road you take. You aren't the first trucker to beat this. You can do anything for a day.

Find your quit group - Pre HOF June 2016. That signifies the month you will be 100 days quit. Post roll. You'll find instructions to post roll in the thread. Post roll every day. Every single day, first thing . That's your promise to stay nicotine free for the day. We do it one day at a time.

I'm 42 days quit from a 25 year, can+ a day addiction. Dipping was part of me. Now quitting is part of me.

you know what fuck the intro post it makes me sound like a pussy and that is definitely not who I am...I've been thinking and trying long enough I've spent the last hour reading through ktc and have gotten some major encouragement....today is the day i quite, I just threw a unopened can in the trash... I'm done with this shit I'm tired of letting it control parts of my life and honestly I don't even get a rush from it anymore hell I haven't in years. I did not survive Iraq, a divorce, and find a career I love just to let nicotine control my life and kill me I'm done!

Tried several times

Well I've been dipping sense I was 16, I'm months away from my 26th birthday...I dipped through school through my time in the army including Iraq when I could get it and over the last few years I've been dipping more...I've tried several times to quite dipping along with my soda habit sometimes at the same times sometimes at separate times I have failed at all my attempts. I find one of the biggest reasons I can not succeed is because of my career, I'm a truck driver and as many of you know those of use in my profession and well pretty much everyone uses tobacco as a way to pass the time...the problem is, that's all I have is time I live in my truck I have very little things to pass the time, weather I'm driving surfing the web watching a movie, it doesn't matter I always have dip in. So here I find myself once again thinking about quitting but to be honest I'm not off to a good start as I pretty much have set myself up for failure because I know more than likely I will not succeed...so I guess what I would like is some encouraging words and even success stories, and even though I've read the reasons why I should quit maybe if I hear some of the reasons you quit and how your life has change will help me through my decision and hopefully ultimate goal of having my very last dip.
