Day 6. Today was the worst so far. Felt out of body and felt headaches like never before. I never thought I was truly "addicted" but it was clearly a lie to make myself think it was okay. It was a miserable night and morning. Feeling good now, but poked my lymph nodes so damn hard the other day I have some pain in my jaw. I wouldn't recommend worrying about oral cancer unless you have a sore or something lumpy. My advice to anyone just quitting.... Don't let your mind beat you whether it be telling you to have a dip or that you have cancer.

Here's to another day! I never thought I could hate one legal drug so fucking much.
Good job Gopher. Hate that bitch and I'll hate her right along with you.
Hypochondriacs get sick too!
Quit with you!

My background:

I am 27 and was a dipper for many years. I started just around my 19th birthday and quit last week. I had a canker sore on the bottom of my gums from my retainer (or so I hope) and it scared the crap out of me. I am glad I could find a place like this as I don't normally need a lot of support.

My problem is I do not miss the chewing tobacco, I miss the 8 years of my life that I wasted using tobacco. I look back and think how stupid I was to have ever used it. Does anyone else feel the same way? I am glad I gave it up and will use you all for support. My quit date was 3/14/14.

I look forward to learning from everyone.
Don't spend too much time dwelling in the past. Not shit you can do about it, so don't waste your energy.

Worry about tomorrow when it gets here.

TODAY is where your head needs to be at.

Like the white bearded scribe, WT57 once said...drive your journey looking out the windshield, not constantly looking in the rear view mirror, or looking too far ahead. Focus on the now.

Or some shit like that...

Since I quit on Friday night 3/14/14 I am pretty damn excited for tonight to be 3 days.  I am so scared of getting cancer at this point that I just don't see the need to buy another can and to put it in my mouth.  I can't wait to get to 100 days. It will be a highlight of my year.

Thanks to everyone for the support on day one and I will be checking in daily!
I love your enthusiasm bro. Lets harness it a tad.
1, 10, 36, 100, 1044 days... It's all the same. One day at a time. It's a long road brother. Pace yourself and, right now at the beginning, celebrate a victory each day. 100 will come soon enough. Enjoy now.
I remember early in my quit I saw a post from Ready that he was quit for like 1700 something days. He said it had been years since he had a crave. As a really new quitter in got all excited at the prospect of that being a possibility. Then srans gently reminded me that Ready got to 1700 something days the same way I got to 20 days, ONE DAY AT A TIME! I feel like a completely different man than 115 days ago. But I know I am just one bad decision away from the last 4 months meaning nothing but bluster and shit. NAFAR!

First three days are hard, mainly because it takes that long to end the physical addiction. But, make no mistake day 4 is hard too. So, one day at a time and post roll every damn day. Support is here and were all going thru it.

Great decision! Wish I would have done the same back when I was 19. Post roll everyday and stay quit.
