Good afternoon my fellow quitters!
Before I go on my sob story about why I started my quit, I want to let everyone on here know how much I respect them! I admire you all for saying no to the nic bitch. This site has made me realize there are addicts out there just like me! Everytime I read a post on here about ninja dipping I smile because I beat myself up about it for so long, only to find out I was not alone.
Well anyway, I am 24 years old and have dipped since I was 18. I will never forget when I started dipping, freshman year of college my roommate introduced me to the bitch. It was during that first semester I trained my mind to use tobacco to deal with stress, how stupid. I dated a girl for 2 years around age 19 to 20. That's when I learned the ninja techniques, she caught me a few times but didn't know I was stuffing my face with dirt when I wasn't around her. Made me enjoy not being around her. She eventually cheated on me, I blamed her for my problems, not the can.
I graduated college with excellent grades, got a job, and moved out of my parents house. I was still married to the nic bitch.
Long story short, two years later I had a calamity at work and lost my job. So here I am, 24 years old with a civil engineering degree, scrubbing toilets (not all day long but part of the job) for the family business. You may read this and think, damn that sounds depressing. Yea it is, but it's what I needed to seriously understand how much nicotine has controlled my life for the past 6 years. Gona be a hell of a ride, but when I come out the other end I know I'll be a better person. 2 days quit! Bring on the cravings, I will not cave today!
