I am done with dipping

[jcook]

when your friends pack a can in front of you, take out a picture of a cancer patient with their jaw cut off.  just tell em that's likely to be them if they don't take the path to quit.

i bet they stop doing that.

or punch them in the jaw and tell them its better for them then the shit they are doing to themselves. or just punch them in the jaw.

OR.... another alternative.

Tell them they are right you just cannot stand being quit any longer. Take thier can and pack it just like you used to.

Open the lid.... and then dump the shit on the ground. Drop the can and stomp on it. Then tell them you are a bad ass quitter and you will not have that shit offered to you or flaunted in your face.

I will promise that is the last time they will flaunt it in your face or offer it to you...

'crackup' 'crackup' 'crackup'

Then either run like hell or be ready to throw hands.

I am a 19 year old college student at a small college playing football. I am a young one here, but I have dipping for 4 years. I blame wrestling for me starting dipping, because it is just something everyone else did and I picked up this nasty habit. I just need somewhere to vent because I just quit dipping today and it was really stressful with school and football. I kind of feel like I don't need the help since I see people here that have been dipping for 10-20 years, but I found out my friends aren't real helpful with me quitting (like packing their cans in front of me and dipping in front of me just because I am trying to quit.) Hopefully this will be somewhere I can vent and hopefully I can kick this habit.

Congratulations, college_boy. You're hoping for the right thing. I too hope you get up enough resolve to actually do the right thing. But today, you're blaming other people for your bad decisions. As long as people are around it sounds to me like you're still in trouble, friend.

Today, you're wondering if I or anyone else here can help you, because I chewed for 34 years and you've only been killing yourself for 4. I only chewed one day at a time, exactly like I quit one day at a time, little brother. There are people here who've quit for a heckuvalot more days than you've chewed. Your little candle of hoping and blaming other people is nothing but a black shadow against their light.

Today, you think you've got a "nasty habit". Picking your nose is a nasty habit. Not listening when people are talking to you is a nasty habit. This is no "habit". You are addicted, scholar. Drink plenty of water. Post here every day. Find a solid vet you can relate to and put him in your address book. Make a plan for what you're going to do when you leave your motivation in your other pants. Make a plan, because for the next 80 hours or so you are not going to be capable of thinking straight. And for the rest of your life, you're going to have thoughts of dropping your quit.

So I don't want to embarrass or discourage you, and I'm sorry about the third degree burn but MAN! Maybe you'd like to revise your statement, sir.

Ok, I understand what you're saying. I am going to revise it now. When I made that post last night, I was still thinking about it. I woke up this morning and felt totally different. I am sorry about this, but I will tell you now I am done with dipping. When I said the stuff about wrestling, I meant they got me started on it, but I am the one who decided to keep going and go out and buy the snuff and keep going with it.

I am done with it...I am going to quit and I will stop blaming other people for it. It was my decision and now I am making my decision to kick this addiction in the ass.

I am sorry bout last night's post and hopefully you find this one in better favor. Thanks for the advice you gave me.

You taking my advice makes it golden, college_boy. Otherwise it's useless.

Can any of yall tell me how to post roll?

[jaygib]

Welcome college boy. I could blame outside factors on dipping but it was my choice to use and today it is my choice to not use. Other things will cause stresses that may trigger a stronger desire to dip but it is still my choice. Once I put the rational choice "I am quitting" out in front of all the emotion the quit was possible.

It's gonna be tough for a few days, then in the coming weeks and months it'll get easier and the choke hold on your life that nicotine wants can sneak up on you later. Use us if your friends can't be supportive.

[andrew]

There's no hopefully man, you are either going to quit or you're not going to quit. Make it up in your mind right now that you want to quit.


It doesn't matter how long you've been dipping, it's the same addiction. Your mind says you need nicotine, and your daily habits include nicotine consumption.

It sucks quitting, but it is well worth it in the end. Man up, commit to your quit, and post roll.

[30yraddict]

Welcome College Boy,

Great decision to quit! Wish I had done that at your age....You can do this, and you will. You are stronger than nicotine. We are all here to help. Post roll every day as a promise to everyone here that you will not use nicotine that one day.
