Fucking dip dreams!! Almost 600 days dip free and the fucking dip dream comes and fucks with me last night. I hate that bitch!

Ugh... HATE dip dreams. Luckily, if you're like me you're about done with them. I think I had my last one around day 750 or so.

At the community pool with my kids.

Some dad here walking around, spitting into an empty Sprite bottle.

I shoulda worn my KTC shirt today.

I'm so glad I'm not that guy any more.

I bought a used touring for my bike on Saturday. I met the old dude at a gas station and he was sitting in his truck. Spit bottle in the console and when I shook his hand he had a fatty in and his bottom teeth were all gross looking like he never brushed his teeth. Followed him to his house and he showed me the trunk and his bike. Empty used plastic spit bottle in the cup holder. Thought about telling about the site but since the dude was in his 70's figured it would be a waste of time since he would probably never quit.

I haven't been on in awhile but quit July 3rd 2007 with the help of KTC and my quit brothers I have 2559 days quit or 7 years! Could not have done it without this site I posted daily and some days I was on here for hours because it was all I could do to stay quit. Thanks old timers that helped me especially Sioux, ODT, Chewie and Loot. Love this place!

You go post in Baboo right now young lady.

4 days into my quit. its pretty rough. i always used to reward myself with a big ol' dip when i felt like i deserved it (or anyother time really)

every time i get thru a situation during the day that i resisted the nic bitch my mind flashes to taking a dip as a reward for not taking a dip.

pretty fucked up right?

also having a hard time wrapping my mind around the concept of never dipping again.

i keep thinking : and then, and then.......but i can never dip again.

never? ever? kind of like infinity, impossible to imagine.

it is easy to say one day at a time but i know that all of them strung together starts to look a lot like forever.

i know i need to do this. the fog has got me by the balls today

Beard,

Fuck forever. I'm kicking it for right now. No rewards, no compromises. Just right now. I can keep it at bay for the next 5 minutes. That's all I need.

Occupy yourself with something other than thinking about dipping. Read anything and everything here. Work out. Drink water. All these things help.

Most importantly - Post Roll. Reach out to your October brothers. They are struggling with you right now and can offer a hand, a shoulder or a foot. Which ever you need.

Quitting is not impossible.

Beard -

First off... welcome

Second, NOLAQ is right. Don't worry about "forever"... it's too big. We quit one day at a time (ODAAT) and when we get to tomorrow, we repeat what we did today.

I wrote this a while back... may be helpful.

As NOLAQ says, not only is quitting not impossible, it's VERY attainable. Welcome!
