Hey all- I am a 40 yr old who has "quit" dipping probably 6 times in 24 yrs.  I always picked it up again using some excuse as to "one dip won't get me hooked again" and guess what I'm an idiot ofcouse one is all it takes. 

This time- I am ready to "embrace the suck" and do it for real.  The reason I now this time is different is because 1)I never reached out to anyone and never bought in, If anyone asked I would say yeah I quit (but in the back of your head you are working out ways to cheat) 2)A three year old who is already trying to spit like daddy" and 3)  My wife being pissed all the time.

How does roll call work?  Thanks everyone.

I'd call you a whippersnapper but your Avi is my favorite thing on the whole site.
so you get a pass.
"CLOSE THE DOOR. In my opinion, it?s the single most important step in your final quit. There is one moment, THE moment, when you finally let go and surrender to the quit. After that moment, no temptation will be great enough, no lie persuasive enough to make you commit suicide by using tobacco."
