thanks everyone, i see theres no difference in quitting in november or right now. bottom line is i am gonna quit. did anyone ever have a planned last dip?  i havent dipped since last night after reading this site and making this post. i'm at a crossroad now and my heads playing games. i guess now is a better time then ever, because the rest of my life i'm gonna picture just 1 more dip- here we go
Perfect reasoning. Remember it when you feel like nothing would be better than that last dip. Read the site. Be the site. Do those two things and you will be clean. Guaranteed.

Welcome to the site....and Day 1

Hello, i just found this site and spent the last hour reading before i registered. i've been dipping for 10 years now and been thinking about quitting for about the last 3 months. i planned on quitting when i turn 30 in november, my question is, is this normal to set a quitting date? after reading these stories on here i wanna quit now! about 3 years ago a dip friend talked me into jumping on his bandwagon and quitting, i went 9 months without a dip then fell hard,no excuses..he went 2 months and fell. that was my first and ever try at quitting. i feel i was quitting for my buddy who talked me into it and not for myself. now i truelybelieve i'm ready to end this and i have support from my wife and 2 kids(4,2) and our third coming in 2 weeks! i remember during those 9 months that the first couple months was really hard, bac-off and houch and seeds really worked well. i plan on doing that same method along with the help from this site and keeping that image of my kids and my health in the back of my mind at all times. any advice or help would be great and i realize this decision is on my own just not sure if its normal to set a date for my 30th birthday. thanks-george
If you can convince me that quitting tomorrow or the next day or when the hell ever will be easier than right now then give it a shot.

Bottom line, you want to quit? now is the time.

If your word of honor means anything, you can do this. It's most definitely not going to be easy. But it can be done. If you want this more than anything else in your life right now, post roll. keep your word. We will help you remain accountable.

Your move

If you think it is time now then do it now. Dont put it off for a miricle date that you may blow off. Empty those cans in the toilet, post roll and keep reading stuff on this site, ask for help or just post to say how your feeling. Gusy like us did this so can you
i just quit one day 400+ days ago and went one day at a time from that point, more important than a date to stop is to just stop and realize that it is gonna be really rough for the first few days as the nic leaves your body but it does get better
Go Bucks! Quit Date: 12-23-2011
