Unexpected

[Suck-It]

Welcome to the June group dd22. Enjoy the ride - it's definitely a Freak Show in here.

Deception: The practice or act of deliberately making somebody, or peoples believes things that are not true.

Welcome to the most truthful site about tobacco addictions.

There is no sugar coatings and no nice way of saying things here but you get it straight.


On April 14th, 1994 these seven executives of tobacco companies testified that they did not believe that tobacco use was addictive....
William Campbell, President  CEO, Philip Morris, USA –
James W. Johnston, Chairman and CEO, RJR Tobacco Company –
Joseph Taddeo, President, U.S. Tobacco Company –
Andrew H. Tishch, chairman and ECO, Lorllard Tobacco Company-
Edward A. Horrigan, Chairman and CEO, Liggett Group Inc.-
Thomas E. Sanderfur, Chairman and CEO, Brown and Williamson Tobacco Corp.-
Donald S. Johnston, President and CEO, American Tobacco Company-


To those 7 Deceivers mentioned and to all the promoters of tobacco.

A most sincere FUCK YOU!

To DD22, jiggle your nuts a little and smile. YOU ARE FREE!!!! YOU removed the shackles of addiction!!!!

When you are free, the thoughts are, "What do I do now?" How bout you start by taking in a deep breath and just live, knowing that you are free?

Seriously, It is hard but so was being an addict and that's the truth.


Welcome to the June Platoon.

You talk about feeling 'normal'.

You were poisoning yourself for 30 years. You haven't been 'normal' in 30 years.

You don't even know what 'normal' is.

What you are going through is 'normal'.

Keep reading. Depression is not an uncommon side effect to nicotine withdrawl.

Like Smokey says...patience. The good news is, we know what you're going through, and we're here to help. Lean on us.

Welcome brother.

DD, Welcome

The " unexpected" stuff your talking about is all well documented here. In-fact when you start reading you'll find it's actually all expected. Knowing what your actually going through is half the battle. You also need to remember that you dipped for 30 years your not going to be all better in 30 days. Patience grasshopper. nicotine is some nasty stuff, give your body some time to heal.

We make a promise each day that we are quit for that day (post roll).

Honor your promise.

You can do this.

This is my intro - I am tired of everything about Chew.

I have chewed for over 30 years. I have no excuse for not quitting earlier.

I quit on March 2, 2012 (41 days ago). I barely got thru the initial cravings the first couple of weeks, but I made it.

Then, some unexpected stuff. As I began to deal with the cravings a little better, I became more edgy, anxious, "low".  ... even after a month.

I thought - how can this be? It should be going the other way. I should feel high, not low.

Then I realized that this unexpected stuff must be false feelings and not real. I have nothing to feel anxious, edgy, or "low" about. "I" should be good (normal).

I also realized that when I tried to quit three years ago, this is about the time frame (a month or so into the process) that I caved and went back to chewing.

So, I got on the web and starting researching Nicotine withdrawal.  ... and here I am. I posted this morning.

I guess I will be researching everything I can on this site to help me understand this stuff. I just want to feel "normal" again and get some idea when that may be.  ... feel normal but without the chew.
