There are a number of healthcare professionals on this site, ranging from doctors, to pharmacists, to dentists, to nurses, and paramedics and as sick as it sounds, I always find it refreshing when another one of us joins the likes of KTC. I feel like there is an added sense of irony for us, because on paper, you would think we would know better. I'm of the licensed drug dealing profession and knowing the line of work we all contribute to is the perfect breeding ground for nicotine addiction. High stress, long hours, and sometimes mundane work that requires another fixation to occupy the time. Basically medical work is like a sweaty ass, the perfect breeding ground for fungal infection, the same way our lifestyle is a breeding ground for addiction.
The good news my friend, all of that is a complete load of bullshit. One thing I've learned is that no matter the walk of life we come from, nicotine and addiction doesn't give a fuck. We're all perfect breeding grounds for addiction. So all that stress and addict beliefs that you need dip to get through your day is a load of shit. I have been quit for almost 9 months and every aspect of my life is better and more fulfilling now that I have realized I can succeed in all those facets without a piece of turd in my lower lip. Buy into this program, embrace it, and make it a way of life. Start by posting roll and building accountability. I promise you, quitting dip will feel better than any academic achievement you've ever obtained. Not to mention a few friends for life you'll gain along the way. It won't be easy, but I would expect someone like yourself to be ready for this at all costs.
Look forward to seeing you on roll.
