So... it's time to come clean and give this up forever. Dip has damaged my marriage (because I was lying about it - for the 3rd time) and could have damaged my health.
I was caught by my wife on Friday and she's thinking about leaving me (for the lying, not the dipping). This is the straw that broke the camel's back. I've decided that my marriage and family are more important than the dip... and I must commit myself to quitting for good.
I quit almost 7 years ago (when my wife was pregnant with my first daughter). This year I started a new job and fell off the wagon. It's time to go back to being a quitter.... this time for good.
Any advice and support would be appreciated.

Marino,
Glad you found us. Your story is not really unique. There a many of us who have similar stories. If you follow the way we do things around here, you will quit. Not just stop, but actually quit.
First,
read ever letter here. Next, head to the August 12 quit group,
found right here. Post roll using the instructions that you find in the welcome center. Each day, you post roll in the morning, as early as possible. This is your solemn promise that you will stay nicotine free (no gum/patches/etc included) for the day. That's how we do it here. One day to the next. If you have any questions what so ever, please feel free to ask me. I'm sending you a private message. You can read it by clicking the
Inbox (1) in the upper right corner. My cell phone number will be there. Feel free to text me if you need someone to chat with. The first couple of days are the hardest. Not sure if you've found this yet,
but here is what you can expect now that you have quit.
You will get more support here than probably anything you have ever done in your life. Like I said up top, stick with us, and you will stay quit.
