Quote from: TimpyI'm starting to get some physical reactions and am wondering if they are due to my quit. I have been feeling nauseated, not from turkey, and it started after I had a cup of coffee this morning. I read something about nicotine inhibiting cafffeine intake and that quitters experience a 230 percent caffeine increase after dip. Is nausea a symptom of quitting, or is it the increased shot of caffeine now that the toxins are gone?
i can say i dont no the anser to your question. but i do no this - nic aint a very good cure for nawsea. it wood be a rather piss pore one i think. so man if its the coffey or terky ride it out cuz what ever it is is gonna turn.

Quote from: TimpyDay 4 is here at last. I was hit by a few craves yesterday but the enormous abundance of food, and my smokey mtn, really helped. So now the drugs are all pissed out so its jedi mind tricks from here on out. Thanks to those who helped me get this far and to Steve for convincing me to pitch my stuff in the first place. After reading the testimonials and cancer stories, I feel good to have started my quit now. At a can a day I could sense trouble coming down the pike.
All you--One day at time!

Quote from: TimpyThanks again everyone! I got smashed by a monster crave after dinner and was literally going nuts. I started looking up local tobacco shops to see if any carried one of the fake snuff brands. I finally found one that had smoket mountain and I plugged the destination into the GPS. It was 7:30 eastern time and the place closed at 8. The GPS arrival time was 7:51 so I was on a mission. This short trip was one of the most rage filled, uber death wishing, curse fests of my life, lol. I got stuck behind some old lady in her v8 cadillac doing 25 in a 35 zone. I beat the shit out of the steering wheel and hurled obscenities at breakneck pace. I pulled into the lot at the worng end going the opposite way down the aisles, bee-lining it to my destination. Someone beeped at me but it didn't move my "give a shit=o=meter" one iota. I rushed through the door of the smoke shop at 7:56 (thanks granny) and encountered the woman I spoke to on the phone. I was raggedy looking and irritable to the max when I asked for the "fake dip" as I feverishly destroyed a straw between my teeth. She smirked and said, "another quit attempt?" in a sacarstic tone. I glanced up at her and fired back, "no shit, you're a genius!" She was obviously shocked and meekly said, "excue me?" I couldn't help but laugh and managed to say, "I'm not even sorry!" I quickly paid for 2 cans of straight and a can of mint and left. This stuff tricked me enough to end that craving instantly. That was how I have ended my day 2. This is rough but you guys have helped more than I ever thought a website community ever would. I really feel like I am starting to gain some ownership over this shit even though it is still way early.
Well done sir!!! The mind games are just beginning, but that is what we are here for.
Nicely done, that brought back some fond memories that I think a lot of us can relate to. Didnt move your give a shit meter? Yeah, mine is extra hard to move since I quit. I'm a better person because of it.

You can do anything for 24 hours, let's do it again tomorrow!

Quote from: TimpyEverything went really well today. I am home and went to get subway for dinner. I have been doing better than I thought thanks to text messages from other members. I find the hardest time for me right now is right before bed and after any meal. I am keeping my word though, I posted roll so I am not going cave.
Don't be surprised if you start feeling a little better tomorrow night. I won't lie though, tomorrow could be the worst day. But I know you can do it!

Don't let me down. Are you a man of your word or not?

DennyX

Timpy, you posted roll so it's not even an option today. Dip tomorrow if you want but NOT today. You've taken it off the table. I'm writing at 6:56 pacific, which means you're just getting comfortable in the waiting room. Sounds like you need some phone numbers, PM me if you need one. Look forward to your reply after you get out!

Quote from: TimpyI just woke up and posted roll again. I almost cave dlast night and bitched and moaned for about an hour and a half before I actuallt went to bed. I just stood staring at the bed in a fog thinking of ways I could lie to my wife and go get a can. The crave finally passed and I slept ok. Today my wife has surgery (nothing too major) and I will be alone in a waiting room for a few hours. The surgery is at 10 eastern so pray for me to stay clean.
I'll say a prayer for your wife today, but definitely not for you. You don't need prayers because you posted roll call promising that you would not dip today and you will keep your word! (You fuckin better, it's all you got)
we don't pray or hope---we QUIT. You sit there in that waiting room and support your wife with NO DIP and keep your promise.

It's easy--just don't put cancer in your mouth.
