Welcome, FkSkoal! Get your name added to the November 2014 roll post haste. Make it policy to post roll first thing every day. Read through the forum threads/articles, absorb the info, and embrace the program for what it is: a no bullshit cold turkey quit. Pretty badass.
Seems like you got your quit on strong. Get posted in November and make some friends, the worst is over for you but beware of the road ahead. Get your quit tools in line, and have a plan for the rough days.
Some of my fondest and clearest memories are peeing in places that aren't bathrooms.

I was on the chats for a bit today using the handle NoMas. I figured FKSKOAL is more appropriate.

28 male from NYC, wife, 3 month old son.

Dipped Skoal mint pouches for 3-4 years and QUIT cold turkey on 31 July 2014. :D

Was dipping in a hotel room for a work conference on the evening of 30 July 2014 and just had an intense moment of disgust with the habit.

That was my last dip. I am tired of hiding it from my wife, friends, and coworkers. Better to have nothing to hide at all. And better to stay in good health.

I was looking around online about symptoms of withdrawal. I had no idea this would even be an issue for me. I received an amazing feeling of relief when I found out how common these things are and that I am not alone.

For me, the headaches are the worst part. Light-headedness, the fog. Pressure on the temples and base of ears. Tension in the neck and shoulders. Irritability. Feeling warm. Then cold.

Excedrin has helped a great deal. But I am told that the physical withdrawals are temporary and will subside; the real test will be the mental, psychological withdrawal. And that is why I am here. For your support, and to support others.

I am reading about the posting roll process and look forward to being a part of this community.

Proverbs 18:2

"A fool takes no pleasure in understanding, but only in expressing his opinion."


A Quit Plan: Do you have one?


CLOSE THE DOOR. In my opinion, it?s the single most important step in your final quit. There is one moment, THE moment, when you finally let go and surrender to the quit.
After that moment, no temptation will be great enough, no lie persuasive enough to make you commit suicide by using tobacco. SportDad 1/13/05

Warm summer sun, shine kindly here;
Warm southern wind, blow softly here;
Green sod above, lie light, lie light.-
Good-night, dear heart, good-night.

Be silly, be honest, be kind
