Quit cold turkey. Its the only way to go.

I dipped cope for 15 years, and at the end of my use I was going through two cans a day. I had been hiding it from my wife and family for years, and was tired of the lies and being chained to a can.

I tried the whole nicotine replacement therapy thing, I used the patches. But like so many other failed attempts, I ended up using the patches as a crutch when I couldn’t dip. I would get some time by myself, and I was right back at it.

Eventually, I came across a community very similar to this one. What I learned is that it was essential that I quit cold turkey. That if I didn’t quit 100% today, right now and this second, that it would never happen. That was almost two years ago. I haven’t had a dip or any nicotine since, and wouldn’t change anything about it for the world. I’m finally free.

I also learned that signing in with my quit group and being a member of a community like this one was essential to my success. I couldnt have done it without our message boards.

Nothing takes the place of having the stones to actually quit, and stay quit cold turkey. But these are the things that I know help.

Eliminate All Temptation

Eliminate All Temptation When Quitting Cold Turkey. A wise man once told me that if you don’t want to slip, don’t go to slippery places. As crazy as it sounds, you need to eliminate any and all temptation. This means laying low and not being around your friends that chew if you know you wont be able to push through. This also means that if you cant control yourself in certain situations or cant remove those situations, you should remove yourself from those situations. This isn’t forever, just until your in a better place.
