I started an introduction feed about my wanting to quit nicotine A few days before my quit date. Now that I am three days into my quit I would like to reintroduce myself and share my story.
I have learned this new word since being on this website and it is ninja dipping. I love it! That describes me to a tee for 32 years. All through college and Dental school I would be a closet dipper and it was tough. My wife and I dated for 2 years and she never knew I dipped. I was the best ninja dipper until she discovered a can of Copenhagen in my luggage on our honeymoon cruise. Talk about a sad and shocking day for both of us. I wasn't entirely the man she thought I was. Even though she knew I chewed I was going to continue my ninja dipping skills and let her think I only dip a few times a week or anytime I got caught. I need to quit
As I mentioned earlier, I am a Dentist and am a huge Hypocrite. I have continued to be a Ninja Dipper in the office out of shame and embarrassment. I own my own practice and have 8 employees. I have never allowed my hygienist to clean my teeth and she often asks me why. Wow!! Talk about a blow to the stomache. I have come up with several really good excuses but honestly I feel like I have hurt her feelings and I wonder what she really thinks. She has been with me since day 1 of opening up my practice. I need to quit
I have 2 children preteen age and I always told myself I will quit before my kids could ever find out. Well my oldest daughter has unintentionally found a can of chew in my car or in my bathroom drawer 1 too many times over the last year and now knows "daddy has a problem with putting that brown stuff in his mouth". Breaks my heart! I need to quit
I have been a slave to this can for far too long! I have tried quitting so many times in the past but honestly haven't even tried for the last few years. In fact my registering for this website was the last time I tried to quit. Obviously I was unsuccessful. I have never tried quitting cold turkey so that's been my plan and ITS WORKING SO FAR! I am on Day 3. I can't remember the last time I hadn't had nicotine in my body for 3 days. I'm chewing Smokey Mountain and it's really helping. I absolutely love the support and knowledge on KTC.
