Well, here we go. I have read the site in full, and I am fully prepared. I could not find my quit group, I found the May one, however I am quitting after 2/21/15. So, if I am in violation if your rules, please let me know and I can take it down.
I am a newbie. 20 years old been dipping roughly 2 1/2 years, copenhagen pouches. Got up to a can a day a few weeks ago, knew I could not do it anymore. I, and many of my family members have an extremely addictive personality. I knew this was the best decision.
I will be on here regularly for the next few days, if I need to move or take down my post, please let me know, I gladly will. I apologize if I made any mistakes on where to post.
Thanks,
Nick

Hello everyone my name is Ryan. I have just started my journey again. I have had a really hard time in the past quitting. I would stop for 3 or 4 months then when I would get stressed out I would go and by another can. I know I have to stop just having a very hard time doing it.

Proud to be quit with you all today.

Quote from: Geddy
Howdy folks 'winker'

Name's Geddy. I officially quit on January 10th of this year after 10 years of dipping -- haven't felt this good in a long time! Just came here to introduce myself. I'm not here looking for support on quitting or staying clean, but to provide any support where it could be used. My first and only attempt at quitting went extremely well so I figured that if there was a place to put this information, it's on these forums. 'archer'

If anyone is looking for advice (not that there isn't already a wealth of it here!), some support, or motivation, hit me up.

Take care!

I am just finishing day 3 of my quit and was having a really tough time earlier. I came to this site and just started to read some HOF speeches - some from a while ago. I then read some posts of people who are on day 60 or day 80 of their quit and all of this INSPIRED me to keep the course. What I'm trying to say is please don't stop telling us your stories. We early quitters need to hear your encouragement. You guys saved me today. And I'm sure you're going to save me again tomorrow.
Keep reading and be sure to add to your introduction. What you write today will inspire another quitter tomorrow.

Anybody in the Minneapolis area know where I can buy Smokey Mountain other than ordering through Amazon?
SamMan, Have you tried Wal Mart? Unfortunately it's near the wall of cancer but it should be there.

3 Don?t be selfish; don't try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves. 4 Don't look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others, too. Philippians 2:3-8

"A few things I have learned through business and sport..
1. If you are not being attacked you aren't WINNING
2. If you are not being criticized you aren't doing enough RIGHT
3. The easiest way to attack success is try to pull you down to their level.." - Todd Tryon
