I have been dipping for 18 years after smoking for 10 years. Someone talked me into dipping so I could quit smoking which at the time seemed like a great idea! Little did I know that I would get even more hooked on dip than I did on smoking cigarettes. I've tried before to quit although never made it past a couple of weeks. I quit on August 20th, 2014 and so far I am making it. My mindset seems different this time, before I was thinking let me see if I can quit. This time I am absolutely done with it. I'm quitting for selfish reasons, for myself. I want to live a long life, want to see my daughter graduate high school, college, get married. I want to see my grandkids someday, want to annoy my wife until we both get old. ;) There are so many things that I want out of my life and I felt that if I kept dipping I would not get the chance to do them. I'm hoping I caught myself in time before it was too late. I'm resolute in my desire to quit and already appreciate all that this community and site have to offer. Thank you.
