How many of us had that white spot that scared the shit out of us and we quit for 6 hours and then switched location of our dip because the craving out weighted the fear. I've told my story of setting with my friend that had oral cancer. He had a fist sized hole in the side of his face and a Kotex covering it. His wife packed his dip in before bandaging it and tying his jaw up. I sat with him for hours with my lip full. After he died I continued using another 25 years. That shows how strong the ties of this addiction are.
I doubt that this dude will be back unless the biopsy comes back positive but maybe someone else reading this will be inspired to quit. Dip kills!!!
Damn wt thanks for sharing, I used to tell my friends if I got my lip cut off I'd put on other side ! That's frigging sad! Made my quit stronger today, thanks!
Tobacco is so addictive it took me a year after a massive heart attack, in which doctor confirmed caused from dipping to finally put a lid on the bitch! ODAAT EDD

Hello everyone. I'm Hunter. Today is my 31st birthday. I had a dentist appointment today and they saw a spot on my gums that has them concerned and madde me an appointment to see an oral surgeon. I was a smoker since I was 16 and when. I had children at 26 I quit and started dipping grizzly straight long cut. I dip about 4 times a day and usually hold them for long periods of time. 730 am to 11 am 12 to 330 430 till dinner 6pm and then 730 till around 10 PM . After leaving g the doctor today I said I was finished. But 30 minutes after I got home I am already holding. I have a can left and decided after that can I was though. I hope I can do it. I hate cigarettes now and hope I can do the same with dip. Thanks for reading and any tips and advice would be greatly appreciated.
My interpretation of your intro:

Hi I am Hunter. I have no balls. I really love being a slave. I hope I grow a pair someday, whenever the right rainbow guides me to pet a unicorn, then maybe I hope I can give up the can. I'm so special, me and my rainbows and unicorns. Thanks for reading my bullshit addictspeak. I'm just a 31 yr old pussy. The spot on my gums are nothing so I will keep dipping until they are something that kills me. I just sooo love the Poison in a can. They sell it everywhere. Maybe next year I will try again from the oncology ward.
^^^^ Harsh...but true. ^^^^

Hope is bullshit. If you want to be free, you can be. Just post roll, don't put that shit in your mouth, read everything you can and repeat.

Toss the damn can now and QUIT. Flush it down the toilet, so you can't get at it. Your an addict and if its in the trash and still available, you will be digging in the trash.......Man if possible cancer can't get you to dump it now, not sure anything can. I'll tell you straight up that this is the place for you to learn about quitting and learn about your addiction but only you can quit. Its not easy but then again has anything in your life worth a damn been easy? The trailblazers here at KTC have cleared the path, you just need to follow it. I was a cope man myself for 25+ years and can say that I am nicotine free now for 517 days. If I can manage then you can do it! Get on the train, free yourself from the slavery! Quit today, not when the can is finished!

Redfish, you have found the right place. I will be praying for your next steps.

I am only on my third day of quitting and no expert, but I tried and failed many times in the past. I had the same attitude as you...I'll quit after I finish this can. You can't do that. You have to decide now that you at done and flush that can down the toilet.

Read as much as you here, take roll, and learn from the bad ass quitters that started their quit before you.
Yup, Bruce is right. If you quit now you'll be Jackal and part of a strong, active quit group.

I quit with you today.
You need to quit waiting, you made an excellent decision coming here but now you need to pay the price of admission

Step 1- flush that fucking cancer down the toilet, what are you gaining by sucking on cancer dirt any longer?
2 - get over to July quit group and post your day 1
3 - read, read, repeat and read more! Start at the welcome center and then move on to introductions and hall of fame speeches
4- exchange digits with your peers in July

Next, prepare by posting your promise every day to not touch the nicotine bitch! That means no smokes, nicotine gum , dip or pill of any sort. Pick up seeds or fake or whatever you need but ditch that nicotine whore! You going to go through hell we call the suck for the next few days, you beat this bitxh head on and by standing by your word all day after you post roll promising not to touch nicotine today. Be a man of your word
Redfish look at your kids and look at that spot for the next three days. I swear it gets better. I am 44 and was doing three cans a day. This site works. Just do it. I quit with you.

Erich Fromm, The Art of Loving

Figure it out so that your kids know that they have a strong father who can fight mano a mano against nicotine and not give up. Not many can do that, so show your kids that you are special and that you are making sure to always be their brave and strong dad because you fight every day to ensure that you are with them for as long as possible.
