Congratulations on taking your life back. This site, if used properly, will be extremely helpful in maintaining your committment to your quit.

There is really only one thing you truly NEED to ensure this site works for you. You might be strong. You might be smart. You might be successful. But the only thing you really NEED to ensure this site works for you is integrity.

You post roll every day. That's the easy part. Get online and head to January and say "TacoMEDIC - Day XX." The real question will be - do you have the integrity to sustain your quit for that day? Do you have the integrity to keep your word?

Make no mistake, this will be a fight. But you are fighting for your life, so fight with everything you have. The Nic Bitch has been getting her ass handed to her repeatedly by nearly 10,000 of us every day. We have all been through the fight. We are all still fighting. Our opponent gets weaker every day, as will yours over time.

Take advantage of everything this site has to offer. In the beginning, this site is your home page. You are here every day. For hours. It works.

Welcome
The love you get here is conditional. The condition is that you are quit.

First thing big props to you on your decision to quit. Like you I had tried to quit by myself before but always went crawling back to that shit can. I can say proudly I am on day 81 only with the help of this site. If you totally commit to the idea of "posting roll every day" it will work for you. My first advice would be get your ass to walmart and buy a can of fake dip. Most Walmarts carry Smokey Mountain Chew, Wintergreen flavor helped me. i dipped grizzly too so it really did take the edge off. The most important thing that helped me was concentrate on today only. day 1-5 are going to be real shitty, real shitty. Thats good though, dont ever forget how shitty, it will help later on. Just worry about today, your not quitting forever just for today. Post roll, which is your pledge you will not use any form of nicotine for the day. Wake up the next day and repeat. That easy. Proud to quit with you brother.

Quitting for good
« on: October 19, 2011, 11:40:00 PM »
Hey everyone.

My name is Matt. I am 24 years old. I have been dipping Grizzly Wintergreen for about 7 years. Dip at least a can a day. Started when I was playing High School ball. I am a Paramedic. Been one for 5 years now. Long, stressful days on an ambulance didn't help this habit. I'm damn sick of it. Have been for a while. I tried quitting several times in the last few months. I set days to quit. Specific dates, wedding day, etc. Get a few days in and cave every time. I think with some support I can finally do this for good. I want to be quit so damn bad. I'm sick of this shit running my life. Just need some help. I hope I can find that here.

Anyways, thanks in advance. Any advice on the quit will be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Matt

Threw in my last dip this afternoon. I'm done. Day 0 is today. Day 1 is tomorrow. And so on...
