Intro To Deeker

[lhelms12]

Deeker,

I believe that I decided to quit the same way you did.... Simply found a connection with some of the stories on this website. We have a special bond on this website. Additionally, it goes beyond only your quit, but helping others live a life without nicotine as well. So glad to be quit with you today brother!

Well its Day 18 for me and I guess its about time I formally introduce myself to the Quitter Crowd around here.

I've been chewing for roughly 24 years. I started when I was in Jr. High. You do the math on how old I am. Basically my story shares a lot of the same traits that others here have told. Caved to peer pressure, wanted to look cool, played baseball with other chewers, you know the same old story. Before I knew it I was knee deep in chew spit and thought I couldn't get away from Nicotine's brutal strong hold. Finally I married someone who loved me even more than myself and cared about our future. Then came our 2 kids that got an ear full about Cancer and Nicotine from the first day they started school. After years of being caught up in the Nic habits of hiding and feeling guilty about my addiction I never could get the balls to just quit until now. I guess some of the stories and the words that I've read here hit home even though I have heard the same words over and over again from different sources. I think it was the reality that I read here that I needed to quit for myself and no one else. Those words hit me the hardest. It was so true. Here I was trying to quit over and over again for my kids and my wife and only to fail over and over again because I wasn't the one wanting to quit. Well I'm here now and I can appreciate what all the quitters are going through. That what makes it easy to understand and quit each day. My wife and children will never understand what its like to be so addicted to something like Nicotine. I consider this day 18 of the rest of my life and it does not include Nic. I have everything to gain and nothing to loose from leaving that Dirty Bitch behind.

Deeker.. Its 18 days for me too.. Gooch.. i quit with you Pal.. Been a rough one for me.. Do you have a pal.. maybe a hunting buddy that you grew up with all through school and hung out with  maybe even dipped with them? I have a two.. we haven't been as tight last few years... you know work and wives (wives for some girlfriends for me!) and kids... well my best pal growing up died yesterday suddenly.. 43 heart attack... I've been wanting to dip like a bitch today... family stuff tomorrow and funeral on Sat.. you know it coulda been the dip that done him in? who knows.. My sis is a nurse and she says that nic constricts blood vessels and if someone is having a heart attack.. nic makes it worse?? whatever it was -don't make it any easier  he left 2 kids and 1 grand child.. sad man... very sad..
