IG2H, If you can choose this for yourself, you do it. None of us can stop you. Just read those few paragraphs and take a good, long look at those pictures and then tell yourself out loud that you can choose that over your health.

Then, read this and tell yourself out loud that you can choose that path.

I am pretty damn good at everything I do.  I should have no reason to think I cant get good at this someday, too.  But right now, I suck.  Whaa, whaa, whaa.  I am even tired of hearing myself whine. 

I went to a fishing show today and hated every minute of it.  I usually love it and spend hours there.  Watching all these people walking around with a fat dip in, spitter in hand.  I should be pitying them, being almost 2 weeks in.  Nope, instead I wanted to be them.  Not a care in the world.  They actually have booths giving away free Kodiac and Grizzly.  I usually stock up on that shit.  Nope, had to walk on by, with the chatter in my head, talking to myself like fucking rainman. 

Just getting nervous because of all the chatter about "wanting to quit for yourself" is the only thing that is gonna make it happen.  Well I wanted to quit 12 days ago, right now I don't.  Not at all, nope, I want it back.  The only reason I am marching on is for others, mostly my wife and children but also the committment I make every morning.   If it were just me, I would have caved days ago.

Gonna give it the 100 days, if I am still feeling the way I feel today I will be reconsidering the decision.  Life is too short to be miserable.  I sure hope you all are right about how great it is when everything gets better and easier and smoother and worth it, etc.
Dude...I should have went to the rock financial show place and threw you in the fish pond. Maybe you would wake the fuck up.

You are basically counting down days to the hof so you can cave? Talk about a planned cave. Might as well save yourself the time and agony and shut down your account and cave now.

You quit for anyone other than yourself....you're fucked. Still glamourize chew...you're fucked. Do not build up a hate for the bitch...you're fucked. Quit using sheer will power and you will be miserable and fucked.

You got some bad shit rolling around in your head. I know it sucks but its time you dig deep and quit for YOU. Change your attitude and don't look at 100 days as a cave date. Instead grow some balls and look forward to 100 days as an accomplishment, something to take pride in.

Read the hof enteries and you will read stories of people full pride who have built up a HATE for the nic hitch. Not anyone thanking God 100 days is over so they can go back to the can. They are happy to be breaking fre from being a slave.

Change your attitude, break free from your addiction. Jump in head first man. You cant do that when your heads up your ass. We are here in the pool waiting for you, the water is fine but we cant MAKE you to it

You have to help yourself. Keep grinding to the hall. I guarantee you will write a speech about how great you feel, if you tweek your attitude. Keep your head up your ass and on day 101 you'll be back to finger banging a can and slowly commuting suicide. Up yo you...









ur asa.
You need to look deeper at that scene and see through the lies. How many of those that you envy do you think want to quit but can't? How many worry about getting cancer, and check their mouths every morning afraid what they might find, then throw one in anyway? How many wish thu never started that shit to begin with? Do they worry about dying and leaving their families years too early? If they don't do that shit today, they will someday. And they will envy you if you stick with it.

It's like that family you envy cuz they have a bigger house, better cars, motorcycles and boats you always wanted, go on vacations that you have been trying to save for but can't. Then You find out it was all credit card debt, a charade, all bullshit. And deep down inside that guy you envy is worried as fuck about how he's ever gonna pay that shit off.

Another lie: you thought they were being nice by offering free tobacco? They are really trying to keep you addicted. They are trying to fucking kill you! And they hope you brought your kids to the show too so they can see how cool it is to chew while fishing, how cool it is to go to the fishing show for free tins. They are not being nice to you bro. They are being selfish for their own financial gain, at the risk of your health.

Stay quit bro. That is the truth.
Gosh, Mister, my teeth feel cleaner. But what about the hole in the wall?

Lmao- you just hit what's known as the two week weakness. It will pass. Let's not focus on hitting 100 just yet lil buddy. Let's focus on one day at a time. As for your current mental entanglement.....

When using you wish you were quit

When quit you wish you were using

Which of these two is the truth?
The other one is just addiction. Hold tight to your memory of wanting to quit. Did you pray? Beg? Wish? Hope? To be quit? Remember the shame and frustration of trying so many times and failing? If your like me you wanted to be quit bad. I know you have a memory of broken promises, guilt , or something similar. Do you really want to go back to that? You deserve more than that life.

My advice is simple, stop fixating on chewing. You quit, go live your life. Besides, have you ever known anybody that said "I'm so glad I started chewing again" the dip you get when you cave isn't the one your lusting for. It won't be a "good " dip. Instead it will be just like the 10,000 shitty ones that came before it. The ones that you had to have because the can owned you.

That shit doesn't fill the void it created it
"CLOSE THE DOOR. In my opinion, it?s the single most important step in your final quit. There is one moment, THE moment, when you finally let go and surrender to the quit. After that moment, no temptation will be great enough, no lie persuasive enough to make you commit suicide by using tobacco."

Got2 I just went back and read every bit of your intro. Before I did I was going to pass by and write you off as another failed attempt, but, I see a quitter struggling with the pain of a failed affair! 2 weeks ago I had a friend cave to the bitch. He thought his life was just to miserable without the slut. I have a hard time making the case for sticking with it because I sucked on the bitches ass for 40 years!! Oh wait a minute, for 287 days I've told the bitch to fuck herself!! if you think you are different than the rest of us you are crazy!! Each and everyone of us had those days and weeks where we forgot or tried to ignore the suck of being slaves and tried to justify crawling back to the scanky bitch. Loosen your pants and give those balls room to grow!

Quote from: 30yrAddict
as someone who watched throat cancer take the life of both a brother and a guy I grew up with in the last year, I can tell you that neither you or I have any idea what misery is. 

It took a year and a half for my brother to die. He started out at 200lb when he was diagnosed. He weighed under 100 when he died.  I did not even recognize him on his deathbed, his face was sunken around his skull.  The physical pain, guilt, and  mental anguish he went through is something I cannot imagine, but the image of his body, and especially his face the day he passed away will never be forgotten. 

Your quit is too important to throw away. Oral/Throat Cancer does not take anyone quickly and painlessly.
First time I heard that 30year. I physically sank and can't imagine what that could be like...I am sorry for the pain and misery your loved ones went through. (all of them, the sick and healthy).

Do not waiver, go 100 days with exactness! Life is short but long enough that 100 days is a flash in the pan. When you have a good day, share that experience too. Part of havingt honest posts is to share good experiences too!

Not every win is pretty but at a fishing show with all that evil shit around you and even free...you walked. You may be mad, frustrated or depressed but don't you see...you won another match and live to fight tomorrow.

You are winning! This is the suck and embracing it is having the shit offered for free and walking. Keep winning! 100 days, you can do this and I believe you are a man of your word. Post roll, keep your word and repeat.

If you cant honestly say you are quitting for you, dont bother.

Your attitude sucks, and you are in love with dipping. I normally wouldnt say this, but you have already mentally caved.

So do it. Save us all the time and effort that we will no doubt put into trying to save you, and the time you will waste telling us how its so hard but you are sticking it out cause you promised so and so 100 days.

There are too many out there who want this and are doing it for the right only reason for us to waste time on those who don't.

There is great knowledge here; I find this nugget PERFECT for this situation:

but I am not going to say any of that.....

Just a quick thought. Keep raging and venting here. You don't want the real world to make quitting harder by thinking you are a dick. Yeah they get that you quit but pick your fights here.

We like to fight and we get the need to vent. Write it, express your frustrations and your victories. It helps you stay somewhat normal to your friends and loved ones.

The mob is waiting for you.

Thank you for the concern, as underserved as it is. Thank you. maybe someday I can pay it forward when I am not such a degenerate, feeling sorry for themselves, brokedown loser.

You dont want it. Your addict brain is telling you that. You dont need it.

What good has come of dipping? Answer that honestly and I think you will be amazed at the clarity.

Also, you have my number - feel free to use it. Hell, I am less than an hour from you by car if you need someone to slap some sense into you.

Anyway - you are on roll today. No nic for you!
I live in Michigan too. Maybe we could give him a double slap down. I think he needs it.

I think he also has the same problem I had...no patience. I wanted to be "cured" and I wanted it NOW.

"What's that? There is no cure, I will begin to feel better over time? Well how long? You don't know, it could be months????? Fuck you, fuck your momma, fuck this site, and fuck the horse you rode in on. I don't believe your bullshit. I'm not gonna cave, but fuck you and thanks for the support...fuckers. Fuck......fuck....FUUUUCCCCCKKKK THIS SUUUUCCCCKKKSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!"

Been there, thought THAT. It will get better. I promise.
