Day 20 - The fog has definitely lifted, the cravings are a lot less frequent and less intense. I am still waiting on my spring/summer cravings, but I will have had plenty of experience fighting them by then, so I will fight those when I get there.

20 days ago I would never have thought it would feel this great to be dip free. I see, smell, hear and touch things different than before. I am sleeping better, I don't feel ashamed of myself, my family is incredibly proud and I have saved about $100. I'd like to thank Evil_Won, Ajacks, Baxster and all of June for quitting with me! If you guys ever decide to stop posting roll I will come find you and rip your balls off!

Here's to another day of being nic free! Stay quit my friends!

Well Said ROB!!!! You have a few days on me but I can feel exactly what you are saying! I am proud to be quit with you, and I'll quit with your ass again tomorrow.

DAY 20 bad ass my brother!

Jeff

I'm not looking forward to any cave dreams, but I guess it helps keep us in check as we stay quit. Rob you are bad ass right now and setting a fine example for the June Quit Group. Way to go on day 18 and I proud to be quit with you and the rest of June today.

Thanks brother! Ajacks and Baxster are a day ahead of me. I have stayed in daily contact with them via text.

I am only doing what I want to do and that is be quit! Glad to quit with you too!

So I had my first cave dream yesterday. I work partial overnights so I sleep during the mornings. I feel asleep yesterday, slept great and then i
the dream came... I woke up in a panic! The dream was that typical relapse where the addict goes overboard. In the dream I threw in half a tin.

With that, here's to 18 days of quit! Other than the occasional day to day craving, I feel great and refreshed! I am also finding that I a gold portion of the day I am unaware that I am completely forgetting about dipping. I know I still have a long road ahead, but I positive every day. The spring and summer craves are coming and I will have the tools to fight them off! This is all further motivating me to be here each and every day. I am quit today because of you guys!

Cave dreams SUCK, plain and simple. But, they serve a purpose. I'm glad that they don't go away quickly. Those serve as a good reminder.

I am glad I have not had a cave dream. Now if I can cut back on wetting the bed and the "WET" dreams it would be great.

Radman, It felt great to lay there, realizing it was just a dream and then having a nice little laugh. It felt great to roll back over knowing I am quit!

Btw you replied when I was editing the post,
lol.

The dream was that typical relapse where the addict goes overboard. In the dream I threw in half a tin of Kodiak. I never even dipped Kodiak. Weird!

Just a little motivation for today...

“Dare to Be

When a new day begins, dare to smile gratefully.

When there is darkness, dare to be the first to shine a light.

When there is injustice, dare to be the first to condemn it.

When something seems difficult, dare to do it anyway.

When life seems to beat you down, dare to fight back.

When there seems to be no hope, dare to find some.

When youÂ’re feeling tired, dare to keep going.

When times are tough, dare to be tougher.

When love hurts you, dare to love again.

When someone is hurting, dare to help them heal.

When another is lost, dare to help them find the way.

When a friend falls, dare to be the first to extend a hand.

When you cross paths with another, dare to make them smile.

When you feel great, dare to help someone else feel great too.

When the day has ended, dare to feel as youÂ’ve done your best.

Dare to be the best you can –

At all times, Dare to be!”

Day 11 - Made it this far, feeling great about myself and my decision. I also wanted to mention that the same day I quit dipping was also my last day of alcohol. I didn't have a problem and rarely drank, but knowing my addictive nature I think it's best I learn to deal with all forms of stress without that as well.

Thanks for the support my fellow June group and to those who have supported us! I've added another tool to the toolbox, staying motivated by paying it forward to those on Day 1.

Staying quit with all of you!

Day 2 went better than expected. I did think about it a lot, but it was fairly easy to manage to nic fits. My body felt healthier... food tasted different too.

Below is kind of like a blog, which is something I plan to do every day for the first couple of weeks or so.


Day 3 of Quitting Dip:

I still can't believe that there are idiots with youtube accounts devoted nothing but dip reviews and talking about dipping, wait, yes I can they think dip is safe yet cannot confirm what is in dip. If these idiots only knew. It's like watching Intervention... the parts where the camera follows around the addict.

I watched one about Mud Jugs... sadly some come in camo, some in random rainbow glass and even a southern pride theme. There is pride here, yeah, being proud to fuck your shit up! When I say shit, I mean "mouth, throat, teeth, gums and life".

I'm not gonna sugar coat it, but I was a scavenger ninja dipper. I was ashamed and didn't want people to know. I'd spit in moderately full garbage cans to hide it, sometimes I'd find a random cup in the trash and play "aim my loogie". Other times I'd hit up the drinking fountain and act like I was taking a drink. I used to use my McD's coffee cup and act like I was taking a drink, except it was either empty or full of dip juice. Sometimes I'd even spit on carpet.... when all else fails you swallow it and find the nearest thing to drink to relieve the burn associated with it.

Thanks for the support... this too shall pass! Keep driving on!

First off, FUCK Mudjug and his merry band of idiots. I had it out with them earlier in my quit, before realizing you can't fix stupid. I even went back and forth with the author of some book he was touting about dipping being "safe". Even got the author to admit that what, WE here are KTC are doing is the right thing, and he wished me the best of luck. Don't even give that Mud-PUD idiot anymore time by watching his idiotic videos. It's a waste of time.

Second, all those ninja things you did...I did them all, and I bet a ton of other guys on this site had as well. I will never forget going into a video store with my kids to get them some kids movies and video games with a lip full. Of course they are kids so they were taking FOREVER. As I did my best to wait patiently, the amount of spit build up in my mouth was reaching overflow levels. No way I could swallow it, as I would barf on the spot. So, what do I do? I go over to the drinking fountain and pretend to get a drink and instead unload a mouth full of SHIT. Some lady saw me do it too. The look on her face was one of terror and all this brown slime snaked down the drain, leaving behind a zillion little specs that I had the "hand splash" so the could find their way down the drain.

What a fucking IDIOT I was. How fucking SICK is that??? Why the fuck could I not take my kids into a video store without a dip in??? I'm steaming right now just thinking about that again.

Thanks a lot for bringing up that memory, Rob, you PRICK!!!! Your ass better QUIT AND STAY THE FUCK quit for making me relive that in my brain!!!!

Yeah, I plat to relive these every now and then to remind myself how fucking disgusting the shit is and staying quit is the only option. I don't know enough dippers personally to say what they did was the same. I can totally believe it that they do though.

I remember a specific time at the movie theater when I forgot to ask for a spitter... I feel bad for the poor person cleaning the floor after that movie.

As for the mudjug and his sheeple, I never really looked at dip videos in the past until last night. Dipping was never about the cool factor for me... although I always noticed how excited the high school kids would be to get dip at the gas station. If they only knew how it felt to dip for any length of time.
