Hey everyone, my name is Derek and I'm happy to find a site like this. I'm wrapping up my first full day without dipping in 5 and a half years today and made the decision back in December 2013 that my New Years resolution would be to quit dipping. Even though today (January 1, 2014) is day one, I feel as if I've been on this journey forever already. The crave is absolutely unbearable and I'm so on edge. I feel like ripping someone's head off for no reason. I keep expecting it to be sitting there in my lip and it's not. My appetite is also going haywire.
Even though I feel this way, I'm determined to quit for better health and to be around longer for my family. I'm looking for some Jakes Mint Chew to help me get through this very tough stage right now. Looking forward to getting through the first year sober!
Sincerely,
Derek Martin, Olympia WA
32y/o, dipper for 5 and a half years
