Good advice above, also tell your original group(s?) what happened, why it happened, and what you will do differently this time to honor your self and your quit. You will catch a lot of flack. But the idea is for you improve your approach to quit and succeed beyond 6 months. Your life depends on how well you answer and how well you follow through. Be honest, think clearly, and succeed in your quit!

Correction you have stopped twice you have not quit! You need to got to March '16 and answer the 3 questions. What happened, why did it happen, what are you going to do different to change it this time? Since you did post here you probably owe your old group too. Although they won't remember you you were gone so fast. Post your promise first thing every day then keep it. Wake up repeat. Build accountability and brotherhood. Lay off of the beer for a while too! At least you admit to being an addict thats part of the battle. Why did you leave here the last time?

Day 1 a success
« on: December 17, 2015, 05:51:00 PM »
Alright so here goes. my name is Tim. I'm 25 years old. I have a wonderful wife and two children (3 year old son and 2 month old daughter) that I love very much. My first dip came when I was 11 years old hunting with my father. I enjoyed it, hell I loved it. I started chewing a can a day when I was 12. In high school I was swallowing Copenhagen all day in class. In the army I maxed out at 2 cans a day of Copenhagen long cut. I quit in 2013 for 6 months. I caved. I quit again at the beginning of this year. On the day of 6 months quit I woke up went and got a can like nothing happened. My problem is I'm an addict, I have little support outside of my wife to quit. That and I am a big ol sack of shit for staring back up again after 2 times quit. Well my friends let the harassment and name calling commence because that's what I need. I have all the power in the world to put the can down and walk away but I need support to stay quit. My first day was great. I feel so much better when I'm not controlled by the nic bitch. The only thing I'm worried about is beer. Boy I love beer just as much as the next guy but when I quit I seem to drink a lot more. 1 or 2 ipa a night and all the Pbr or Guinness I can handle on the weekend. Anyone else have that issue?
