Let's Do this!

Hi, my name is Devin. I am a 22 year old female who has been dipping for about 5 years now. I first found this site a few months back, and thought it could really work for me, but I felt I was not ready yet. I am currently a little over 2 years alcohol and drug free, and thought why should I give up anything else? I was being stubborn and dumb. I thought Id quit later, some other time. Lately, the reasons to quit have been piling up. I have been struggling with bills lately and noticed I spent $126 on dip in June. I have chewed skoal mint one can a day for quite some time now. I had an orthodontist appointment Monday for my wisdom teeth and was told I have a line of white along my gum that would not scrape off and that he wanted to perform a biopsy. Definitely a reality check for me. My mom has struggled with cancer and has not smoked or dipped a day in her life. The longer I procrastinate quitting the more random useless excuses I come up with not to. But I know I need to do this. I have two pinches of chew left. After those are gone. I am done. I need to be done. I have read some posts around this board and I love the accountability and the fellowship. Accountability and fellowship is what allowed me to get sober. I can do this. I apologize for the long post. Kind of needed to type it out to really let it sink in.
Thank you all for being here,
Devin

Devin,

Make sure you post in roll call.. It is like checking in with the group daily, 100 meetings in 100 days!!

There are a few of us in recovery from other substances as well.
others will weigh in.

I am 27+ years sober, and 62 days off a ten year addiction to Grizzly WG longcut.

By the grace of god we find this place.

The NIC bitch is truly a ODAAT thing. keep the plug in the jug and the finger out of the can!!

I dont see a roll post today from you yet...make it a habit to post it first thing in the morning EDD.

I'm with trauma, , I sure would like to see that post.

You have so much life left.

I gave the poison over 20,000 dollars and over 25 years. All it did for me was take. It took time from my family. It took my dignity and integrity.

To be fair let me make a list of things it gave me.



I'm sorry,,, I got NOTHING!!! Let's post roll and TAKE our life back!!!

Welcome Devin! Stick around and you'll find quitting has the best benefits. As one guy said in chat once, "If I'd known quitting was this much fun I would have done it a long time ago!" It's hard work but keep your head down and power through. Reach out and make connections. I know 2mch has reached out to you... Reach back! She is an amazing quitter who will help you so much. I'm on vacation and not near my phone much right now but when I get back I'm looking you up and will send you my number too. Just remember... NEVER AGAIN.... For ANY reason! You do that one day at a time. Be mad! Be stubborn! Take your life back!

[srans]

How goes lt today devin. Hope you are doing well. Let us know.
Devin, know this... You are worth the craves. You are worth the withdraws. Stay the course. You are worth it.

[Erussell]

You can do this, if I can you can! It is going to be hell, unadulterated hell for several days, but then gets better. I'm at day 69 and wow.... while I still have moments I can say its easier everyday and like the other Bad Asses posting on your thread have said we only have to worry about today. I sent you a pm. Let me know if you need anything. By the way add trauma to the list of BA's to connect with, I have him in my arsenal as I do the others he listed. We will quit with you day by day or even hour by hour , hell if we have too minute by minute!

[traumagnet]

Devin you can do this n now you don't have to do it alone we are all here. Listen to Kc that brother rocked this fucker through some tuff times not my story to tell read his thread. Srans found me new in my quit n reached out to me n I will never forget what he told me n that's my story. Jake is a bad ass that got on your thread he told you some good shit that's your story. N now is where our story begins you and I are addicts and we always will be the difference between us and crack whores is legality. Listen learn read read read build your tool kit up get numbers make connections cause when the nic bitch comes for her runaway slave you better be ready to pull the trigger and use your tools.

I spit out my last piece of dip at 227p central time. So I guess that makes today day one. The last time I bought a can of skoal I also bought a can of the mint snuff that is tobacco and nicotine free. Im ready to do this. Thank you everyone for your support thus far!

Get through today! That's your only objective today! At all costs! We are here. Then we start tomorrow fresh.

That Skoal Mint is evil poison that is robbing you of money health and years of life. It is also making you a slave. The good news is that you can quit. It will not be easy, but you can quit. Read as much as you can on this website; esp. read intro threads to see how many others have been just where you are now, and see where they are now. I will quit with you today as well.

Skoal mint was my poison of choice for 15 years. Great news, I have been quit for 49 days now. If I can quit after 15 years you surely can after 5. Post roll everyday. Own your quit. Use this website for support. Pm me if you need anything. I quit one day at a time with you. Fuck skoal mint. You don't need that poison.

[srans]

Welcome devinetg. First off welcome and I hope you wake up this morning with same resolve you had last night.

If you've woken up and still want to take you life back, know that there are 1000's doing that right now. It's so possible, you just have to believe.

It starts just like this. Trash that can and never look back. Go to the top left and click on welcome center. Learn how to post roll and why. Pay particular attention to why.

We post roll daily and make a commitment to not use for the day. This is very important. You can keep your word for one day right. That's all we ask. One day at a time and you can have your life back.

Make no mistake dtg,, Things will be rough for a while, but I got great news. We are here for support. There are also some great female quitters that are very much a part of this sight. When they find out you are here they will gladly support you. My guess is one or two will hit your intro before the day is out.

Ball is in your court devintg. I say we get some quit on. I got nothing better to do.

[Matt F]

I can do this.

Yes you can but don't do it alone! Post roll every day, keep up your intro page to document your quit. Most of all keep the positive I CAN attitude. Will be following with you.
