Hey girl! Congrats on the quit! Sounds like you are kick ass in everything else you've quit, so I'm POSITIVE you will be kick ass in quitting dip! Keep posting ODAAT and make friends here because we will all be here when you want to punch someone/something or you need someone to understand what you're going through. pm me anytime... I love to see badass chicks quitting! Xoxo
The ladies are few in number but strong in fight and spirit. You will do fine here. Just post roll and be a "man" of your word. ;)
You'll do very well with this system Queen. You know how I know? You said it yourself: "I made a promise to all of you and to my man, and I'm not one to break a promise."

Anyone with a shred of integrity, who surrounds him/herself with support from others going through the same hell that is nicotine withdrawal and associated mind-games that goes with it, who engages their quit group on a regular basis, gets to know them and trades numbers with them and shares in the collective suck; those are the people that have what it takes to quit. You are one of them.

Proud to be a quitter with you any day of the week. There's a fair number of other females on this site so you are more than welcome (I personally think they help keep down some of the bullshit that would otherwise be spewed on these pages). :D

Welcome, buckle up cause it's gonna be a bumpy ride for awhile!

Thanks guys, I made it to the gym today and I am meeting a friend there again this evening. My attitude has switched more into a "f*** this" perspective- I want time to go by faster so I can get this over with, but every hour feels like a week! I nearly broke last night, but I made a promise to all of you and to my man, and I'm not one to break a promise
You didn't break, I remember being on the verge of loosing all i worked for, but remembered that I had posted roll that morning and of all the guys and gals who helped me to that point. I never want to let them down and never want another day 1.

Quit with you Queen!

Hi Queen! Just wanted to say Welcome. It's good that you landed here... Hang in there and like everything else, get some days under your belt and things will start to improve.. For me I chew A LOT of gum and that seems to help me with the craves... Anyway, you are doing the right thing!!
Keep it up. You are doing great. Drink tons of water, this helps. Drink some fruit juice. It is a tough battle, I know. It does get better and the gym and lots of water makes it better, better. Dive into the site. Occupy your time and keep your brain busy. Ignore the jaw and tooth pain. It. Will. Pass. If you can afford it, get to a doctor and tell him/her what you are doing. Make sure he knows No Nicotine at all. He might try to tell you the patch or gum. Proud of you and what you have gone through (even though I don't know you).

You can do this just like you did the others Queen. ODAAT (One day at a time). Just get through today, in whatever way you know how. Wake up and repeat. It seems silly right now, but eventually it becomes second nature and you stop worrying about whether you can do it for a year or ten years. My only battle is with today.

Congratulations on taking your life back. It will be so worth it.

Today I feel more confident that I can do this, but every five minutes I find myself doubting my strength. It took me 13 years to get where I am today, and there is only one person in the world that knows "the real me." So, as I quit there is only that one person who gets what I'm going through.

When I was 16 my brothers told me that I can either put the dip in my lip, or they will do it for me, and needless to say- they did it for me, and I did it willingly every time after that. I really had no friends of my own so my brothers were the biggest influences on me; I was diagnosed with PTSD when I was 14, and I have struggled with addictions of various substances as I tried to cope with the anxiety I had from my trauma.

All of the substances I used as coping mechanisms were used in secret. I started drinking when I was 14, smoking pot when I was 15, dipping when I was 16, and I started taking benzodiazepines when I was 17. I am a control freak who accidentally gave all of my control over to substance abuse...more so, I worked labor on a ranch, so none of this was looked down upon and I wasn't the only only one. I am almost 30 now and I have kicked every bad habit but the dip, I guess this was the one that comforted me the most, and I never thought that it would be the hardest to give up.

I stopped everything else cold turkey, and I have been through hell and back with physical withdrawals in the past. However, I'm on day 4 of my last quit ever, and the mind games are screwing me up more than anything has before. I know how to use my resources, and the funny part is that I am in school to become a social worker what specializes in addiction- I feel like a fraud, but I keep reminding myself that I have done this before, I have taken down alcohol, drugs, and benzos and I never looked back...I will not allow this to conquer me, I will not be a slave to addiction any more.

And yes, I am a woman...disfunction doesn't discriminate
Welcome Queen-T tons of female quitters here! Glad to see you on roll! Your taking a huge first step!
