cjnjimbo, welcome to the may quit group! proud to be in this fight with you. you say you want to quit for your girls? Ive got your back 100 percent on that one brother. every day i see my dad put in a big fat lip and it pisses me off to levels unheard of and quite frankly makes me sick, especially in these early days of my final quit. don't let your daughter have to worry about you the same way i am constantly worrying about my dad. Quit on!!!
Much love for the avatar you got! It is gonna be shitty being around my buddies that all still dip, but I gotta nut up! I won't ask them not to dip in front of me. Gotta grow a set and deal with the day. I remember when I was little, my daddy dipped and I used to pester the fire outta him. He had quit a few months before he passed away. I know how much I bugged him to quit and lord I don't want my lil girl bugging me about that dipping! Thanks for the quitting fuel!

Good evening fellas! Today was a doozey! It was perfect dipping weather! Rainy, heater was kicking in the truck. What a test. 12hrs of just sitting in my truck all day watching equipment run! Kept trying to check posts and read other stuff to keep me motivated. Kept getting pissed trying to post with iPhone.....'bang head'
Would someone like to check and see if I actually managed to post up on Roll Call or if I fubarred it?? I am fully digging this support system! You guys dish it out pretty good :)

Waketech is correct. You have to quit for you. I can't explain how important this is but one day, somewhere down the line one of those girls is going to piss you off and you will go out and buy just 1 can. That will turn into 2 and so on..... If you quit for you, your daughter and wife will be the recipients of a healthy father and husband. Lets be selfish with our quit, It is ours, for us just like dipping was selfish and for us.

Scream by sending me a PM if I can help. I will be glad to keep you quit.

Here is the deal about quitting for yourself, selfishly.
Put all the pressure and onus on yourself to perform, to stay quit just for today. You are the addict, you are the one that has been giving in to feeding the addiction. Don't give your loved ones any ownership of that, because it simply will be too easy for the addict brain to excuse yourself from accountability at some point. No one else made you chew, you alone chose to do so (along with a bunch of us addicts). So don't make your quit dependant on your loved ones, you must own it and completely make it your own to ensure 100% accountability. Most of us fooled ourselves (ok, we also lied to ourselves) for a long time, it is time to own our actions and behaviors. Your loved ones will benefit from your quit and may be quite supportive. But you gotta own it. Trust me, you will very happy you walked this path...
Fish, eat, sleep. Repeat.

What really gets me is when I think back on why I dip and what my last dip did for me, which was nothing. I don't even feel anything anymore like I did when I first tried this shit. Now I could dip an entire can and feel nothing other than the fact that my mouth hurts and I know I'm slowly killing myself. That's not worth it. I could have gone without this shit in my life and from now on that's how it's going to be. You got this man.

Welcome . Go to the salmon colored welcome center tab up top and learn how and why we post roll. It's the bedrock of what we do here. It's gonna hurt bro, but it is so worth it! I quit with you. Post roll every day, keep your promise, and read everything you can here. You can do this. You are most definitely NOT alone!

So after dipping for 10 years, I just got a really crumby feeling about it, literally 15 min ago! My wife and I just had our first kid (a beautiful girl) in November and I have been using the baby's fussiness, her medical issues, etc as a crutch to keep dipping. Well, after reading the "list of why to quit" on the site, I got really pissed at myself! I mean 1 damn can with this much control over a person?? I cant believe how weak I felt after realizing that! What little girl wants to be raised by a Dad who cant deal with life's issues like a MAN, but instead uses a can of chopped up poison to cope? Please help keep me on the right track! As many of you have gone through this, it won't be a fun road, but damnit, I intend on succeeding! I have to! For my girls. Day one begins!
