I suck at math MountClimb but it seems that you've been quit by yourself for 3 weeks! That is bad ass!

But it seems to me that if you really wanted to quit by yourself you wouldn't be here starting an introduction thread. The good news is there is already a group of quitters here who will be happy to quit with you. We make a promise every day to not use nicotine for 24 hours. We keep our promise and we repeat the next day. We hold each other accountable to that promise. Post roll here...

Hello all. I'm new here and wanted to introduce myself. I've been a 1 can/2 day Cope user for over 35 years now. Have always swallowed the juice, so most people have no idea that I ever used the stuff. Even though I've had a dip in constantly throughout the day, and for many years, I even slept with a dip in.

I've read many posts here and can really relate to everything I've read. I've tried to quit a couple of times, but didn't really get habit vs. addiction aspect of nicotine, so I always thought I could give it a try once I "broke the habit" and of course ended up back where I started.
I have also always tried quitting in private, with the knowledge that I would probably fail. I guess those are the lessons I had to learn. This is an addiction and you can't fight it alone and you will always be an addict.

Something in me snapped this time. On my wife's birthday in March, I ran out of chew before we went out to dinner, so I put on a nic patch to get through the evening, but we got snowed in and I couldn't get to the store, so I just stayed on the patches for the next 2 months, determined to never touch the stuff again. I stopped the patches about 3 weeks ago and have been white knuckling it ever since.

Still wrestling through foggy times and strong cravings but will never put nicotine in my body again!

Even as I type this, my brain is constantly trying to find some justification to just have a dip to feel some relief, but I know where it will eventually lead to.
Welcome,

We are glad you are here, and glad to be quit with you. Post roll every day! Get up, take a piss, and post roll. Drink as much water as you can. And, excercise...that is the thing that helped me the most....walking as much as possible.

You can do this,

Go to the welcome center, learn how to post roll now. 3 weeks on your own is badass! I used for 38 years I'm 570 days nic free and there's no way in hell I could have done it without this place! Make this a lot easier on yourself let us help you, we're all addicts just like you! I quit with you today! Get on roll the help will be over whelming but not until you post, that's the price of admission here.

Tobacco is so addictive it took me a year after a massive heart attack, in which doctor confirmed caused from dipping to finally put a lid on the bitch! ODAAT EDD
