Zeke-
I'm hoping all went well with your appointment. I'm also hoping you made through yesterday and today nicotine free. You sounded so ready to quit. If you want to quit than lets quit! Hop into chat if you need to. Get to know your fellow quitters. Exchange numbers, ask for advice, SOMETHING. Don't come in here with the one and done.
We are not done. Get in and post roll.

Zeke,

Good job posting roll. That is your promise to not use nicotine for that day. Make that promise early in the morning and then stand by your word.

We all understand the fear that comes from not knowing what the doctor/dentist will say. The question is how will you respond when you hear it, regardless of what he might say.

You have come to the right place if you want to quit. Dig in, read as much as you can and drink lots of water.

Glad you have gotten tired of the dipping and are ready to become serious about quitting. Just about all of us started dipping in our teens (I was 15). You don't go from nothing wrong to something seriously wrong, like it is either/ or: the negative social, financial, and health effects of using smokeless tobacco are cumulative. All of us played the liars game of 'Oh my gosh, I have his sore in my mouth, it might be cancer and I quit', only to insert a dip in the car after the doctor reassured us it wasn't cancer. We were all 'so young and so addicted'. You get to decide if you want finally quit now, or let your life revolve around feeding your addiction for another 20 years. That is the only choice you have. I hope you post roll and join us.

Hey guys, I have wanted to quit for a while but every time I try I just end up buying a tin and getting pissed at myself after packing another lip and I throw it out and then do the process over again the next day. I am only 20 years old as of May 31st so I have been on this shit since I was like 15 or 14 (first time I tried it). I never thought it would be as bad an addiction as it is. I was killing a can a day sometimes more for a while. I have decided to quit tonight since I already dipped today and just found this site. I think this will be good for me in the quitting process. I'm nervous because the joint of my jaw on the right side is stiff and I keep popping them both and popping my ears. I don't know what it is so i called the dentist and I'm getting it checked out after work. I am hoping that it's nothing and from all these comments of guys doing this shit for 20 years + calms me down but im still stressing. This shit has a grip on me and I need to get off of it ASAP. It sucks being so young and so addicted to something like this. I have gone through some really stressful times recently so that has not helped the quitting process. I want to get off this shit so bad for my mom, family, and future. It has definitely taken something out of me recently, my mind just doesn't seem to be in the right place anymore because i'm torn by the tobacco. I want nothing more than to quit this shit before something bad happens. Thank you all for going through this shit with me. I know how tough its going to be (I have tried quitting) but i am ready to take the steps necessary to succeed this time around.
