I joined this site a little while backÂ… At the time, I was excited to quit and posted to roll call for a few daysÂ… After a while I made the excuse that coming to this site and posting roll every day was a hassle... So I stoppedÂ… I said to myself "I won't post roll on KTC.com, but I'll still stay chew-freeÂ…"Â… Nope, a couple days later, I found myself in a 7-11 buying Copenhagen Long Cut againÂ…
This is the mindset of an addictÂ… I've dealt with multiple addictions in my life, and I've come to realize that when you're addicted, your mind will play tricks on youÂ…
An addict's mind will think completely illogical in order to get back to feeding the addictionÂ… No matter how absurd the thought is, the addict's mind will try and find reasoning behind it and try to find a way to justify negative, ass-backwards behaviour in the name of fuelling the addictionÂ…
I'm ready to quitÂ… I've had my quit planned out for a while nowÂ… I've been slowing my addiction down and on Tuesday, July 1st, 2014Â… I'm going nic/tobacco freeÂ…
This is it for meÂ…
Honestly, it makes no sense that I still use smokeless tobaccoÂ… I hate doing itÂ… I feel awful every time I throw in a dip... I constantly think about the damaging affects it has, the potential it has to harm me, etcÂ… But I still do itÂ… That's an addiction, I guessÂ…
I've reached a point where I feel it's time for me to take my life backÂ… It's time for me to challenge myselfÂ… To do things that I thought were impossibleÂ… One of these things is quitting the chewÂ… I know I can do it, I really believe I can, so I'm going to take this on and do itÂ… Not only for the health benefits but to prove to myself I can accomplish something no matter how difficult it appears to beÂ…
Cheers, friendsÂ… We're all gonna get through this...
