Man WTF! My buddy calls me today to tell me our friend, someone I have known since we were little has put a gun to his own head and committed suicide. Here I am fighting this damn nic bitch to prolong my life for me and my family and he ends his own.

We went to school together, drank beer together, went hunting together, chased women together etc etc.


R.D. I really hope you found the peace you are searching for. You will certainly be missed!
sorry about your pal Jeeper, Thats some bad shit. Can't imagine . YOu can get thru this without nicotine, it won't change anything, so stay strong and stay quit. Prayers sent for your buddy.

"CLOSE THE DOOR. In my opinion, it?s the single most important step in your final quit. There is one moment, THE moment, when you finally let go and surrender to the quit. After that moment, no temptation will be great enough, no lie persuasive enough to make you commit suicide by using tobacco."

Went offroading in the jeep this past weekend. Had a blast without dipping. I tried not to think about it but when the urge hit me I would grab the fake and put it in.

Spent the weekend in the woods, riding in the mud and drinking lots-o-beer. No cave but I did notice almost everyone around me was either smoking or dipping. Met many new people along the way and on the trails. They started making a big deal out of the "herbal" chew. Hopefully some of them remember it is available when they realize they need to quit.

Gone already. This was not as bad as I thought. Guess I built it up myself to be worse than it was.

Oh well, still dip free all is good.

That does suck but dipping again will not make it suck less. Keep focused on the task at hand. Each time you slap the NIC bitch back it gets easier.

Fight through this, you can do it. Your quit will be stronger for it.

If you need a number PM me.

STAY QUIT

Here I sit on Day 11. I just had one of the biggest test to my quit up until now.
Sunday will be a much bigger fucking test.

I had a family member (in-law - doesn't matter who) need a place to stay until things got a little better a couple of years ago. We offered our place, no money just carry your weight around the place. After moving in, could not find a job and I understand they are hard to find. No help around the house, at least sweep the mother fucking floors, you are living for fucking free. Could not go get my son a gallon of milk--milk cost too much but will try to hide fucking Starbucks cups in the trashcan outside. At 10 months it was basically that person or me. One of us was moving the fuck out of the house. He moved out and moved 5 hours away. I know this is going to be a horrible statement but I don't want to ever see him again.

The wife sent me a text this afternoon. He found a job...it's only been 2.5 years. Guess fucking what. the job is near here and he is coming to spend "a couple" of nights here. Mother fucker, mother fucker, mother fucker. day mother fucking 11

That would never happen with the real shit. Man it is hard to believe we all
did the stupid shit we did just to load a fatty in the lip.

I did not hide it from my wife but I did hide it from my son. I did hide it
from other family members but not my friends/coworkers.

When the in-laws were in town or my mom was with us I would have to
ninja dip.

Fuck nicotine.

I used a can a day of the fake then one day I noticed I had not used any in a while. Never really thought about it again, the can is still down stairs if I have to have it.

Use it however it helps you. You will naturally cut back on the amount you use. It is funny now there are time I think " I should get a fakie" then I just forget to go get it.

How many times would that ever happen with the real shit ??

Ok, I now have some fake here. I am not going to use it any more than I have to
but I figured I would use it as an aid to stay quit.

I can't believe how good I feel at this point. I know I will hit some lows but I am ready for it. I will not cave, I will stay quit.

I am so glad I found this website, I don't think I would have made it to Day 6 without many of you, SamCat, Markr, hawkquit in live chat and obviously others with their posts and PM's.

I need to get to know many more on here but it has been a great start. Looking forward to not dipping with you guys for a long time.

Ready is right. Fight hard for it.

If the shit gets too much you can dip green tea leaves. I did early on waiting for my Hooch to arrive. Boil the tea then dip the leaves after they cool off.

You will be glad to know at day 205 I rarely if ever use fake. I take some with me if I am having a some beers as that is still my biggest trigger but other than that its just around as part of my plan.

Stay quit !!

It is official. No stores around here carry it. I ordered some online last week so I will just have to wait until it arrives.

Today I have had sunflower seeds, gum, beef jerky and continously drank water.
guess I will repeat that tomorrow. The headache is gone, i feel fine except craving the physical act of dipping.

I made it in and out of the only real "tobacco store". Was tough but did it without problems.
You have to want this.

Fight for it.

Keep your word.

It will get better.
