Greetings,

I am 26 years old and have been chewing Copenhagen Straight for right about 10 years. I am a firefighter and as such the chewing culture is strong, I am also involved in the rodeo/country life where chewing is nothing but normal and often is expected. The reason I say I will quit in 10 days is because my mother told me that the only thing she wants for Mother's day (May 11th) is for me to quit.

When she told me that she wanted me to quit FOR HER the feeling of guilt and severity of my addiction came to light. I chew CONSTANTLY and because I dont spit they are few places I am not chewing, be it at work or just about anywhere and I tend to leave it for hours at a time.

This is not my first attempt to quit (the longest I have lasted is 5 days) but it will be the last. It is sickening to me that I have no control over my mind to the point where I commonly tell myself I love chewing.

I look forward to hearing from you guys as nobody else could imagine what is like. Thank you in advance.
First of all...if you quit for mom you will fail. Secondly, if you want to give her a present, quit now...then she can celebrate mother's day with you being nic free. If you quit now you're body will be rid of all the nicotine by then...I hate to say this because i'm normally a pretty positive person but your plan has failure written all over it.
I second what Jay said, you quit for yourself, sure your mother can be a big reason why you quit, but in the end you and you alone have to be the reason you quit. Your lifestyle is not unusual here, KTC is full of people who work in professions where dip is common, if they can quit so can you, don't use your job as a justification for continuing your addiction. Congrats on quitting, think about some of the stuff said in here and decide if this quit is for you or your mom, if it's for you KTC will offer you the tools to quit, but you have to use em.

Send me a PM if you need anything,

MCO
Quit now. Why wait? What good is it going to come from waiting?
Seize the day. Get this party started. Quit for yourself.

here's my advice..dump your shit...all of it...take a piss on it then light it on fire. 10 days will never come...you are an addict and your addict mind will keep you ten days away forever. You can choose to quit one day at a time starting now. or you can continue to lie to yourself and your mom
Boy I sure could use a beer right about now!
