i've been helping a newbie with his quit and i need some assistance from some of you YOUNG successful quitters.  i'm concerned he is going to cave and i think a lot of this is due to his age.  he is young (20) and pretty new to chewing (6 months) but not to nicotene (smoked for a couple of years).  i don't feel he WANTS to quit bad enough or has the years of WANTING to quit like i did.  i'm 40 with 20 yrs. of the dipping that shit.  can anyone help me out??  if so, send me a PM so i can get you in touch with this guy ASAP. thanks!

Send him to these two links:

http://whyquit.com/whyquit/SeanMarsee.html
http://whyquit.com/whyquit/A_Gruen.html

They were both younger than your boy.

The first ended up dead, the second got a permanent reminder of "wasted youth"

thanks man! i just sent him these links. hopefully a successful young quitter from KTC will also respond so i can put the 2 of them together.

I'd like to share a magic and secret formula for breaking free of the Nicotine Slave Master. Unfortunately, there isn't one. The formula is simple:

1) Close the Door on Dip.
2) Join this forum.
3) Post roll every day and be accountable.
4) Read HOF speeches.
5) Participate in as many threads as possible. At least for the 1st year, your post total should exceed your days quit.
6) Deal with craves and triggers one at the time any way you have to except with nicotine.

It's like eating an elephant; you have to do it one bite at a time. You can't eat one all at one time and you can't commit to being dip-free forever. We only have today and can only deal with it.

And, ladies  gents, it DOES get better. Much, much better. One day dip will have no part of your day.

GET FREE!

If you've never seen it, check out the URGENT: Help Needed thread in the Quit Groups: index.php?showtopic=267

This thread was used exactly the way it was intended yesterday afternoon. Read through some of the posts in there and recognize the power of what happened there.

Proof positive that this shit works if you let it.

Congrats to All as we hit 750,000 posts earlier this week . . . Any Idea who got that trophy?

I think we should set a goal of 1,000,000 before the end of the year. Hell if 1/2 of the 5000 members post daily, we will easily hit that target.

Hope everyone had a great dip-free weekend.  Remember, Monday isn't the beginning of another dreaded work week, it's the beginning of ANOTHER dip-free week!

Today is my day 1. Having trouble figuring out the whole roll call thing. I gave it a shot and hopefully didn't screw something up.

You did it correctly! Welcome to the site and your quit!

Let us know if you need anything... stick close to the site and you'll be well on your way to freedom.
