Welcome Jim. You are at the right place. Post role everyday and keep your word. It is funny how that works. But it does work. So post up stay strong and stay quit with us.

My name is Jim and I am an quitter!

Morning everyone. Long time dipper short time quitter. Had supper last night, took a dip, then had my 7 year old daughter poor the rest of the can down the sink. I had set my date earlier this month and stuck to my plan. I told my daughter I had just taken my last dip and wanted her to throw the rest away. She was ecstatic.

I have been dipping since I was around 12 and am now approaching 43. I have known for a long time I needed to quit, but always came up with a reason not to. I have now made a conscious decision to quit. I know it will not be easy as I have "quit" a thousand times in the past. I am here to quit and hopefully help someone else quit along the line. I have quit many addictions over they years, most recently alcohol, but dip is the one that has had me by the short curleys the longest. I am here to humbly ask for your guidance along this journey.

I will not ask anyone to wish me luck as I know from past experience that quitting any addiction has nothing to do with luck. I ask you to help me be strong, be a man of my word, and to be true to myself.

My name is Jim and I am a quitter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
