I have to quit. Failure isn't an option.

I cant believe you asked how to handle the stressfull days. Its simple, mydol and a heavy duty pad! Evil One said it best. Have the balls to say no. Take it hour by hour, rather than day by day. When you get the major craves read our contract. If you still want to cave come back here, post that your a big pussy, and quit wasting our time. I pray you make it, hell I hope we all do, but at least man up!

My big question is how do I handle shitty and stressful days, or just mindless dipping at work?

Stick something else in your mouth. The need for oral fixation can be strong. Hell, I still use the fake dip about once a day a year later.

Use seeds, gum, fake dip, coffee grounds, atomic fireballs or whatever you need to curb it.

It will get better, I promise you that.

Don't go back. None of us need to go back.

Keep quit and we're all here for you.

Their are alot of guys and gals on here that will do whatever they can to help you every step of the way.

Gotta want it bro. Fight, scratch, claw, scream, cry, jack off...whatever it takes. If you want it bad enough you will figure it out.

You DENTIST says soon there will be nothing he can do for you. What are you waiting for, a DOCTOR to say the same thing? By then it's too late. Literally.

Step 1 - insert both thumbs into the front of your waistband
Step 2 - push thumbs outward, away from your body
Step 3 - look down

Long story short, I've been dipping for roughly ten years and went to the dentist for the first time in 5 years about 5 months ago. He looked in my mouth and said it would take two years of no dip for the damage to fix itself, and this won't even be 100% of it.

He said if I waited another two years to come in there would be nothing he could do for me.

I stopped dipping that day, and started again about three weeks ago. Between that stop and start I was smoking cigars daily.

I'm tired of being a slave to nicotine and am done with it.
