Stopper: A stopper uses words like hope  try  want  canÂ’t. A stopper thinks he or she is a special butterfly. A stopper really does not understand or believe that they are an addict. A stopper feels sorry for themself. A stopper thinks life is not fair. A stopper knows deep down inside that they will dip again even before they “attempt” to stop. A stopper is a slave. 'cry'

Quitter: A quitter eliminates the option of dipping from their life. A quitterÂ’s heart is filled with hate and disgust for nicotine and Big Tobacco; there is no room for self-pity. A quitter is willing to suffer through every second for the next 24 hours because he or she has too much integrity to break their word. A quitter knows that they are an addict and will do everything in their power to avoid ever putting that cancer-causing poison in their mouth again. A quitter is a free man or woman.

Anyone can stop, but can you quit? A "Stopper" versus a "Quitter"

Friend called Wed, Aug 31. He has multiple stomach tumors. Might live 6 months. Maybe even 5 years. Not likely. He's 4 years younger than me. He chewed for 25 years. I've chewed for 38 years. Spit out my last dip at 1 pm Aug 31 while talking to my friend. I just don't "need" it anymore. I want to live. I pray my friend will too.
Real sorry about your friend man. But telling his story is going to save someone else's life, so keep telling it.

Nobody else mentioned it yet, so I will.

You need to COMMIT to your QUIT.

The way you do that is you go to the December 2011 Quit Group, and you post roll, which is your promise not to use nicotine in any form today.

It is just for today. 24 hours. We'll deal with tomorrow tomorrow.

But for today, I want you to promise all of these addicts that you're not going to use nicotine, by posting roll.

And then we'll hold you accountable, and expect you to do the same for us.

Yo man, I'm a whopping day 3 now so, I'm in no way whatsoever qualified to give advice, but I've pretty much lived on here reading all kinds of support from guys and gals to guys and gals they've in most cases never met. Having this as a tool is a huge advantage. Use what you've got. You can do it. We'll help.

We are here to support you. You can do this ONE DAY at a time. I am truly sorry about your friend.

Agreed. Sorry to hear about you friend. Truly terrible, but these are the kind of stories that need to be told. But first, find your way around here. Learn how this place works. Drink the Kool-Aid. First things first: stay quit. Get some contacts so you can reach out to a brother (or sister) when the hard times hit. PM me if I can help any way at all.
