Hi everyone...I waited a couple weeks to introduce myself because I wanted to make sure I was really gonna give a go at kickin it. My name is matt, i'm 26, and live in pa. I've dipped a lot and smoked occasionally for around eleven years and was at around a can per day. Its basically a secret to my family but my girlfriend found out and I've been nagged for the past year. I didn't quit though because of that. It helped with some motivation but I'm just sick of being a slave to it and worrying about my teeth, gums, and throat and all the other health issues. I'm sure I'm not the only one that has convinced themselves they have cancer about 20 times a day. I was reading somebody's post or something and they said they found this site while looking at pictures of what they'd look like when they had cancer. They'd already given up in their mind. That is some serious sh%t. I'd felt that way myself all the time. Anyway, I've posted roll since I found the site and I'm all about being interactive and getting to one hundred days and beyond. The longest I've gone previously was 4 days (pathetic). So anyway, if anybody feels like BSing about their quit or mine, i'm all about it. I think it's comforting to know that others are struggling to. I'm really the only one I know that dips so that makes it easier to avoid, but it also sucks because nobody really understands. It really is your best friend in a way and your buddy and you could always count on it being there. Hows the song go? I've got friends in low places? Anyway, I'm rambling on here but just wanted to say hi and to everyone in my quit group (feb), feel free to get on my case or see how I'm doing and I'll try and do the same.
Way to go Matt. Much of what you said is so familiar. We can do this!

Quitting for myself, not by myself.
