You can do it man, it's all about habits and it's all in your head. I quit 2 years ago and I couldn't be happier with the decision. The money alone is worth it let alone the other benefits. Want it!!! You have to want it to make it work.

so you still crave after quieting?

 

I think it is more psychological. When I'm worn down or stressed, I crave it. But I've held strong. It has been bad this year. Do I just exercise to exhaustion. Lol

 

Once you get over the physical, then will be the mental.

Bottom line....... anything worth doing is usually tough but when you "win" it's such a good feeling!!!!!

 

I played baseball in college and dipping just went with the territory. I'm 45 now and it had a HORRIBLE hold on me. I flat could not quit and go 2 days in a row without a dip.

I had a heart attack 5/24/17, a bad one. All of my bloodwork prior and blood pressure everything perfect and in line. I'd just had my yearly physical 6 days earlier. I eat clean, workout, ride my bike, etc. I had 2 strikes against me that overrode the good things I was doing - PHENOMINALLY bad family history and I dipped.

I had a dip on Tuesday 5/23 the day before my heart attack and none since. I know it's only been 10 days but that's a huge step for me. I actually haven't had the first urge which is weird to me because I always had a dip in. I'm sure the urges will hit me as certain things I do associate with a dip. I've already mowed the lawn and super surprised that didn't trigger it.

When I collapsed getting to the ER and my wife and kids were crying "Daddy don't leave me!" when I came to, I think it trumped any urge I'll ever have.

 

I'm glad you're still around to tell your story. Good luck in kicking this thing completely. Sounds like you're off to a great start.

Hang in there! Remember why you're quitting.

 

Get after it man! Don't kick yourself if slip, just get back after it!

 

i'm still alive and kicking. it's been a little ruff but i'm going to kick this habit!

 

Way to hang in there. Keep it up!! With a strong mind and good support anything is possible.

 

Hard habit to definitly break man good for you though and good luck... chew lots of gum instead of smoke smelling the deer will hear you popping away in the woods...
