Dan I assume you are quit now....considering it's the morning and all. First thing, flush any remaining dip down the toilet. 2nd. Read what you've wrote above as often as you can. It's the cries of an addict who needs help. That is the bed you made...you are an addict, from now until the day you die....don't try to lie about it or sugar coat it, just accept it. Believe me when I tell you your addicted self is going to come up with hundreds of reasons why you should dip over the coming days, and a lot of them are going to seem logical...but in reality all those reasons are bullshit. Dip does nothing for you. Which brings us to 3rd step. Post roll here. Instructions on how to do it were provided by someone in a link above. A roll post is a promise to quit for one day. You make that promise to us everyday, and we also make the same promise to you. Seems useless right? That roll post, and the accountability it added, was the difference for the thousands of us who have used this site to quit....really and truly quit. You can do this. Good luck.
Tomorrow.
How many times did we plan to quit tomorrow?
The great thing about this site is that there isn't one lie that you can tell that we haven't told before, to ourselves or to others, to maintain the level of nicotine in our bloodstream. Not one. We've dug through the trash to re-dip. We've made up lies on vacation to get away and frantically drive to store after store in desperation. We've hidden cans under our big giant ballsack so the it wouldn't show through a jeans pocket. There is no lie or excuse we don't know. Because we are you.
Except we quit. We post our promise. We keep our word. We lean on, encourage, celebrate, and call bullshit on each other when it is appropriate. And we are free.
If we can do this, you can too. You have to take the first step. The first step isn't nic replacement. It isn't making a plan. It isn't measuring out and cutting back. The first step is to say... Fuck this I AM DONE!!!! Throw all nicotine out. Every bit of it. And post your promise. That's it. Is it scary? Yes. Is it hard? Hardest thing I've ever done. Will it hurt? Yes. Will it kill you? No. In almost 1,300 days here, with 10,000 members joining, have I seen a single one say.... Man I wish I hadn't quit? No. How about... Caving is the best thing I've ever done! No.
But I have seen thousands of "this is the best thing I've ever done for me". And "I feel so much younger and better." "Im a better husband/father..."
Freedom isn't for everyone. Altria has to pay for those jets somehow. I'm not paying any more! Hope you join us.
