Just dropped you a PM Clint, but I wanted to point out two corrections to your intro:

1. This isn't a "Good" find. It's a GREAT find. It changed my life.

2. If you officially quit sometime Sunday before midnight, that was day 1. If my ciphering is correct, that makes today a big ole "5".

Glad to see you here.

Clint,

Congratulations man! You're still kickin' and your skin is still intact. You've proved to yourself and to everyone here that you have met your goal of quitting one day at a time. That's right; you quit the rest of Sunday. You quit for Monday. You quit for Tuesday. You quit for Wednesday and you're quitting for Thursday!

I'll echo Miles by saying welcome to the rest of your life. No longer held down by something.

As a firefighter/EMT I'can only assume how much stress you've endured over your time. How relieving is it to know that you don't have to resort to dip anymore?

I support you and I quit with you.

Through heaven and hell man, we're all here for you.

A Good Find

I don't know of another word to say than wow. Here is my story. I am a firefighter/emt for volunteer fire department and my full time job is a 911 Dispatcher. So, Just a little bit of stress in life right? And I used Chew to help deal with that stress. Problem is, deep inside I knew it was not good for me. was bad for my health. On and on and on and on. Sunday I decided was my last day chewing. When I woke up that day, I just decided. So, I had a half can left and when that can of cope was gone, I threw it out.

Almost went to get more but I made myself a promise. So Monday, I woke up. And I thought my head would explode. Somehow though, I did not get myself a chew. So yesterday was Day 3 for me of not having any chew. I thought I was going to go nuts. I thought I would actually crawl out of my skin.

I found this website and an amazing chat room. I could not believe the support that is here. Very first thing when I woke up this morning was come back to the web site. I cant believe how encouraging everyone is.

I am quit for 4 days. Tomorrow will be 5. Its gonna be a day at a time, but I am ready to be chew free. Sure am glad I stumbled upon this website.
