quit dipping monday

[MikeA]

Did no one notice the fact that he is quitting for his daughter's first birthday. This will never last. You have to quit for yourself and for no one and for no other reason than yourself. Quitting for a milestone...marriage, 30th birthday, having first baby, baby's first birthday...this never seems to work for anyone because you have not decided to do it for yourself.

So tell me....are you quit for your daughter or for you?

I ve been wanting to quit for myself for a while now but never got past couple hrs.. I d always find a tin laying round somewhere.. within the last 3 weeks my daughter (1) has been mimicking me with the spitting.. so I ve been thinking about everything, being around for her, setting a good example, not get cancer... so I gotta do this now, or years r just gonna keep goin by



You are CORRECT! Just do it NOW! I started dipping around 1990. Vividly remember an effort to quit around 1995 - said fuck it and just went back to it. Fast forward to around 2000, another serious plan to quit...nah, lasted only a day or two. In the past decade I've thrown out hundreds of cans with intentions to quit only to stop at a store and buy another and as soon as that first dip went in I was like "FUCK I'm a weak bastard!" Found this site a week ago and damn, this time I just KNOW I'm going to break this 20 year curse. I'm the biggest weakest pussy out there so if I can do it, you can do it. I'm no expert in the quit department BUT I am on my 9th day today and proud as shit about it - get over to our November group and start posting roll and in a blink you will have a few days behind you and be glad you started this. Understand this and understand it clearly, after the first 3-4 days it is virtually and purely PSYCHOLOGICAL. You have a God-given brain and can simply make the choice to tell that beast in your head to shut the fuck up and go stick something else in your mouth like some sunflower seeds, gum, or whatever to satisfy the oral fixation. Godspeed!

Hey Dipking,
I have just started my quit as well, only 11 days in. So I am asking you to come to the November quit group, post your roll making the promise that you will not use nicotine today and hang with us. We can learn from each other and lean on each other when we are having tough times like you were yesterday.

Continue this process promising and learning one day at a time. You see everyone in our group is in the exact same postion you are in. We have all just started to quit. We are all quiting day by day. So come join us.

I second the advice you are getting. One day at a time is the key. I may slightly disagree with some of the posters as to why you quit. Quitting for your daughter is a good reason. I quit because my son is a teenager and I don't want him to emulate me. Trust me, it will get easier as you maintain your quit. Don't think about forever or even the 100 day hall of fame. Just make a commitment not to dip today.

You can do this. We all do this everyday. Everyday. Stick to 1 day at a time. PM me if you need something. You can count on me.

[Ready]

Welcome.

You can do this.

Keep your word.

if you're on your own, that's your choice. You're here tonight. You're here for a reason. We're here every fucking day. If you want help - you came to the right place. Our help isn't for everyone. It works best for people who are 100 % committed to their quit. I hope that's you.

If you want a dip right now, dont' look at pictures. That's not going to help you.your daughter just turned one? You need some motivation? Read this: index.php?showtopic=4577

not enough? read about the Kerns. Read this: http://www.caringbridge.org/mn/tomkern/history.htm

All the motivation and support you need is on this site right here. You commit to yoru quit, and we'll commit to you.

Welcome.
