Been a hell of along time since I wrote anything in my intro so I figured I would update it. Sitting at 212 days quit and damn is it nice to be able to say that. I've came along way since my first few weeks of quit. For the life of me I have no idea why I ever started dipping in the first place, I guess it was just the peer presure and the thoughts of looking cool but, I didn't look cool at all; I looked like a damn idiot. These 212 days of freedom have been 1,00,000,000,000 times better than any day in my past with that evil can. I will post roll and stand my guard against the nic bitch everyday!!! To all the new quitters that are reading this; it gets so much better everyday that you are quit and, future quitters that may be lurking this site and stumble upon my intro; if me and thousands of other addicts on this site can quit, SO CAN YOU!!!!

Sitting at day 83 now and loving the way it feel's. I never thought I would make it this far in a million year's but, with all the help from my brother's and all the great people on this site, I've been able to do it. To all the people that that normally see me posting in the wildcard post's all day everyday, I will not be seen as much I use to be. My wife and I are cutting back on some of our bills and the first thing's to go were our smartphone's 'bang head' . So no more surfing the site all day long for me while I should be working. Really sucks ass to, I really enjoy those wildcard post's and helping any new or old quitter that I can. I will still be very active in the early morning though. I work from 12- 9:30pm (eastern time) so till I go to work, ill be surfing this site and making my quit even stronger, as well has helping anyone that need's help.

Day one for me. I threw the last can away yesterday. After about 30+ yrs of dipping a can a day, I have a ride to do. Maybe the last rodeo for me.
I found this place while hunting down symptoms of quitting. I'm walking around in a fog and wondered why. Now I know.
Stick around here and quit One day at a time and it WILL be your last rodeo!!!! Over 4 years quit and GLAD I did it!!!!!!! You can DO this!!!!!!!
Welcome aboard down south. You have made the best decision you can possibly make. It will be rough but always remember how you feel, so you will never wanna have another day 1. Read all you can on the site and listen to what the vets like kdip tell you. Number one above all else is, posting roll and doing it early everyday. If you need anything just pm me.
Stay focused only on winning your battle today. Sometimes we all make this harder by thinking about battling this forever. Addicts should focus on today only.

That repetition and focus is what keeps us free. Quit for today and the battle is bearable.

The burden of quit. (Post Roll, keep your word and repeat) is so much lighter than the burden of giving into your addiction.


Stay quit for today. If we are here tomorrow, simply repeat.
Quit And Be Free

Sitting at day 54 and the cotton mouth has came on like a motherfucker. No matter how much water I drink it doesn't seem to ever go way. Unless I'm chewing gum or eating hard candy. Fuck tobacco. Anything that can give you cotton mouth 50+ days after quitting is a real bitch!!!!!
I had terrible problems with my mouth right up till about day 80 finally the healing got done. During the 70's I was sure I had tongue cancer.
Try some Biotene medicated mouthwash. It helped me when I had cottonmouth. Your mouth should straighten itself out soon. I don't miss that aspect of dipping at all!!! Keep up the good quit!!! Its WORTH it!!!!!!!!!!!
