Here is a link to your quit group.

Here is a link to why we post roll.

Here is a link to how to post roll.

Posting roll is the backbone of how we stay quit, and your cost of admission to this community.

Your quit group will become your brothers in your quit.

Join your quit group. Post roll. That's how you stay quit. Sounds too simple to be true? Quitting is very simple. It's just hard as hell to do. That's why you need the support of your quit group (and the entire community). The only way to get that support is by posting roll.

Ronburgandy,

Welcome to the group.

I hope you posted roll as it is everything to us here. It is our daily promise to ourselves and to our community.


The main way to be successful is to just decide that you have quit. Once you stop the negotiating in your head as to whether you will do one more or not the rest becomes far more simple.

Next, you will learn to distract your attention from your desire for a dip to anything else that interests you. This ability to change your focus will guarantee your success and make your quit that much easier.

When you place a dip in your mouth, your brain releases sugars. Well, those sugars are now going to be gone.

However, you can replace them with OJ or other fruit juices with sugar. This will provide some comfort, especially in your initial quit days.

Make sure to exercise with weights and cardio when you feel that nagging tension in your muscles, you feel that rage, when you can not sleep and when you can not focus. Exercise really helps.

Here is one that most people overlook. Get at least 3 square meals a day. Hunger can really bring on those urges so squash those urges before they come. Eat full healthy meals and do not let yourself get excessively hungry. You will see this helps a great deal.

I waited until I was 59 quit after using tobacco for 40 years. You are wise to quit now.

I quit with you today.

Hi guys, I'm from Kansas and I've been dipping for about 6 years. I figure that's about 6 years too long and i'm quitting tonight, I just flushed an almost full can of Copenhagen Wintergreen down the toilet and I'm ready to finally be free from the slavery of Nicotine addiction.
