The title of your intro lured me in...Scared.

Scared, Fearful, Anexious and Stressed...Any one that truely is on the brink of a major change is feeling all of those and more. IT IS OKAY!

Embrace it, we fear the unknown instectively. However the known outcome of the alternative to quitting is scarier. Read the Tom Kern story, if you havent.

Scary, yes because you are looking at it as an outcome. Quitting is a daily action. This is why we only do things one day at a time (odaat) here. We all can do anything for a day. We quit for today. That's it, no more no less. Keep focused on today, tomorrow will be here soon enough.
There are no circumstances in which using nicotine will improve the outcome.

My journey. The best part it is not over yet.

Great to have you here Eeyoore. Whatever drove you here, you have within your grasp all of the tools and support to quit. Post roll and make that promise one day at a time.
Don't be afraid.  You are not alone.

I think I am doing this right, and am not sure if I am or not.

I just found a hard spot in my mouth. It's immobile and painless, but it's right on my gum. I followed the google trail, and am scared shitless. I also found you. My mind is a mess and I can't really see straight right now, and I don't know what to say. Except that I'm terrified. So here I am. The chatroom guys told me to post something so here I am.

I'm quitting tobacco. I quit alcohol a few months ago, so I can do this too. I already flushed all the stuff I had.
This is day 1. The bump won't kill you before the dentist visit, but the next dip might. The next 48-72 hours are crucial to your quit. Go find May 2016 in quit groups and post there. This will be your group. Welcome aboard brah.

Beware, when you get a clean bill of health the urge to return to your using will be strong.
Good job posting roll. It is the first step to a life of freedom.
