I am the GrizzlyBear. I am 22 years old. I started smoking cigarettes in 8th grade at the ripe age of 14. 6 years later I decided that I was tired of smoking. On January 1st, 2013 I made the leap and I am now 1 year, 10 months cigarette free. No need to congratulate me, I have also been a Grizzly Mint (long cut) addict for 1 year, 10 months. Out of the frying pan and into the fire as they say.
Fast forward to today (10/2/14) I am looking for the closest thing to Grizzly Mint for smokeless alternatives. If any of you EX Grizz Mint users have recommendations please let me know! Im ready to quit NOW. This is the last thing I need( got plenty of gum,seeds,etc.) to say I am fully prepared for Day 1 and the end of the Nic Bitch. I WANT to quit, I am READY to quit, and I WILL quit.

The best thing I have found are Smokey Mountain pouches, they also make loose stuff, but I personally prefer the pouches in this case. Walmart should have them.

I WILL go check it out today. Is Grizzly Mint your enemy as well?
-
nope, grizzly fine cut natural.
also go and check out the welcome page, read all about how this group works, learn about posting role, that is the most important thing we do here, we promise everyone here and ourselves that TODAY we will not use nicotine. Then we keep our word, then do it again tomorrow.
EDIT; The pouches I am using are mint though, and they are pretty good, if I had dipped mint snuff they would seem even better I imagine.. lol

Nicotine is our enemy. Pure and simple.
My friend, you have wandered into THE right place if you are ready to Quit. Read our Welcome Center, grab your balls and get started.
Don't worry about finding 'the closest thing to Grizzly'. In fact, run as far away from that mother fucker as you can. Cut the cord. Burn your boat. Slam the door Shut on that bitch.
You can do this.
-
Post roll and get some support.

No EX-Grizz Mint users out there? I don't expect any product that has zero nicotine to be Grizzly Mint. I just need something similar in texture and flavor. I am not going to use this stuff like I did with my dip habit. it will be for emergencies. Seeds already kill 90% of my craves. I can't imagine what an alternative would do for me in a tough situation. I honestly think it would make me feel guilty as if I did cave, helping me in my process.
21,000+ members and not one former Grizzly Mint user who switched to alternatives?!

A couple of things. It's not a dip habit. You are a nicotine addict.
Some guys use herbal mint tea bags; get it wet, roll it up and stick one in your lip.
Drink lots of water for the next 5-7 days. Read, read and read more on this site.

Welcome GB.
I just need something similar in texture and flavor. This "not" true. It is just part of our addiction. I used to think that also.
I actually bought some fake dip online in the beginning. It arrived as I was in the fog. I was on fire quitting and slamming the nic bitch every minute, every hour. I spent hours a day on this site. I opened the packaged, 2 rolls stared at me. I stared back and said, "fuck that, you look like the real shit". I didn't use it, I didn't want to trade one oral fixation for something that looked and smelled like the real poison. I tossed it all in the garbage and continued with my seeds, gum, candies, peanuts, water, did I mention water? LOL It was really rough, but well worth the fight. I won this morning too. If you post roll and honor your word and learn all you can here, you can "be quit" ODAAT.
Whatever you're thinking right now, know that when you've been quit awhile and re-wired you will think more clearly with the clarity of Quit.
Come on in, surrender, drink the KTC koolaid it tastes sweet and gives you more power than any power drink!

I guess he found something just like grizzly mint; more grizzly mint!

Another case of the "tomorrow I'll stop" "I just need" and "BUT".
Here's how it works. You are ready to quit right? So.....you do. You stop putting that shit in your mouth. You just stop. Now, to make sure you have thousands of people to suppot you, you post roll. This is your promise to yourself and to all of us that you will not use nicotine at all today for any reason regardless of your quest to find that perfect fake alternative.
Now quitting is hard. You very well may need some fake to help you. We are good with that.
You also need help via support from people that have been there. We totally get it. The withdrawal, the anger, the stress, the fact that we wanted to punch anything or anyone just because. We also get the apprehension and the fear of quitting.
Stop living in the fear. Jump into your quit feet first. Promise.....there are thousands of us just waiting to help you.
You my friend just need to quit. There is no master plan or preparing. You just stop.....
I'm gonna be here quitting like a girl. Let me know when you are ready. Honestly, you made my quit stronger today. I will not be you. A slave to nicotine. You don't get it now. But you will. Only when you quit.

This ^^^^ Girl is stronger than ANY Grizzly Bear!!! Badass advice from a Badass quitter!

To add to what Ginet is saying, there is no item you can add to a shopping list to make you successful. There is no item you can add to a shopping list that will make your quit not suck. Stop worrying about your inventory of quitting goods, and take stock of what you have inside. Think about WHY you made it here, HOW you will use this site to kick the nic bitch, and then stop saying I WILL, I WANT. Instead: I QUIT.
Jan15 roll is waiting for you, you won't be experiencing this alone.

There are 21,000 people here because our shared addiction is hard to quit. If there were something a lot like the poison we used to ingest then there would be a lot less than 21,000 folks here. I'd love a rainbow shitting unicorn as well, but I got quit the only way possible, which is to stop putting it into my mouth.
-
I quit 4 days ago. It is much easier today than the past three.
I am a previous Copenhagen Longcut summer dipper and Skoal Mint Winter Dipper. The texture feeling is apart of the addiction like many are saying.
Peppermints, lots of water, coffee, dark chocolate, staying busy and reading this helps me. Stay busy and sign up on roll and quit today.
Once you decide you are ready to quit. Just quit. Don't buy another can. In 4 days I have saved 10 bucks. May use that on a nice IPA or movie tickets for my wife.
I'm here with ya. Just PM.

I definitely didn't find more Grizzly Mint. At 1 a.m. October 4th I will be 1 Day nicotine free. I feel fine. I am feigning like a dope head but I am fine. This isn't bad too bad. Cold turkey none the less. Seeds, Gum, and water have helping me alot. I bought Bacc Off wintergreen but haven't dipped it yet. Just open the can and smell it like the feign I am. Seems to do the trick for me. No chew in the house all flushed down the toilet. I am done.

That all sounds great......but did you post roll? I may have missed it so I am just checking.
-
No I didn't. But I have spent 24 hours nicotine free. I had a few times that didn't feel right but this is easy when you want to quit for yourself. Or atleast day 1 was easy.
EDIT:
And to all you shitting down my neck for being prepared and actually wanting to have a plan for my quit. Thanks for all your shitty advice that did absolutely nothing. People come here to quit. OBVIOUSLY its simple. QUIT. But if people have questions about their quit, answer their questions, not just rabble shit that has nothing to do with what was asked. If you can't answer the question then why are you typing? If this is what this place is ill continue this quit on my own. I am not quitting for any of you. You can do that for yourself. I am quitting for ME. 30+ Hours nicotine FREE 'Finger'

Okay. So let's start by posting roll. You need to continue to be true to yourself by posting roll each day. Make the promise to yourself and then to all of us. Please go post roll.
Next, let's move on to the frustration you are feeling on day two (assumed by your Edit post). There is nothing wrong with being prepared or wanting to have a plan for your quit. Why people may get on your shit for it is because we all know that those plans never really work out that way. We think we have everything handled and we are ready to go "start our quit" but in reality, we have nothing figured out and nothing falls into our "plan"
So, when we see people planning to quit, it reminds us of our own previous attempts.....Do you know how many birthdays I have "planned to quit" or New Year's or first of the month etc? I am sure you have gone thru that too. The plan is nice and rather comforting but in our quit world, it doesn't work. So the attacks are not personal.....they are just a tough love way to make you stop wasting time on your PLAN and just get to quitting.
A lot of questions you have are answered within the wall of KTC via reading.....
Have you done some reading here?
Listen Grizzlymint. I am glad you are on day two. That is awesome. I like that you are raging.....keep being mad....hate nicotine....scream and yell at us....we can take it. Just keep that shit out of your mouth. That's our goal.
No - you should not quit for anyone but yourself. Please know that we will support you 100 percent, but includes taking some tough love advice if you get more of it. Quitting is hard. Sometimes we have to be hard.....to get into your addict brain.
So - you can keep getting support and make your quit even stronger by having thousands of us stand behind you. To get that, you need to post roll. Roll is the reason I am quit. You don't have a plan better than Roll. It works. Use it. Without it, you are already planning to cave.
....quitting like a girl all day .....

You were a grizz mint guy? Be wary of this but smokey mountain Arctic mint tastes like what you remember grizz mint to be. You'll realize eventually that grizz mint actually tasted like shit and the nic whore just convinced you that steaming pile of death was mint. I actually had a panic attack day 16 because I thought I had caved with smokey mint in my lip. Be cautious and be prepared.
I had a plan to quit to. I bought a log of grizz and said when I'll finish this log and then I'll quit. Well I finished it. Then decided I should wait till July 1st to quit. The best decision I ever made was waking up the morning of June 28th and saying fuck it and posting roll. Today I'm at 99 days.
These people tried to press you to quit immediately because they have seen many people come in here saying they plan to quit on x day. Then they never come back. Glad to see you are here now post roll every day and be a quit mother fucker.

Thanks South Paw for an awesome and helpful reply! Luckily I have not even needed the fake stuff. Seeds, Water, and Gum have been doing me wonders.
Ginet: This is my first quit, the date was unplanned, but the process of learning what to expect has been thorough. Also I actually am happier without dip then I was with it. Even with these withdrawals. The plan can work exactly the way you want it to. You have to DO it. That's the key. I am doing it and I won't stop doing it.
I am to foggy to even try to post roll. I have attempted to do it a few times and just don't get it. If someone wants to do it for me be my guest. But this CTRL X, Square, Circle, R1, L2 Cheat code stuff don't compute. I also don't no where to post. Just because I don't have a roll posted doesn't mean I am not here though. I am still nicotine free and fighting through each day to freedom!

Wow and now day 2 I found out my last living grandparent (grandpa) died. Still no nicotine in my lip!
-
Sorry to hear about your grandpa. You are wise to stay away from the nic bitch, she only puts people in the ground, doesn't bring them back. If it starts getting to you, please come into live chat and vent or get at one of your contacts.

Go to the main page and right above introductions is quit groups. Once there, scroll down until you see January 2015. This is the month you will hit 100 days (hall of fame). Got to the most current page and then all the way to the bottom post. Might help to have 2 tabs open. The posting instructions are on the roll in green font.
Sorry to hear about your grandpa.
-
Grizz - when you tell me that you are "too foggy to post roll" that is an excuse. I was foggy. Everyone was foggy. We still posted.
Saying "if someone want to do it for me be my guest" isn't going to work. You need to post YOUR roll and give YOUR word. Ain't no one gonna be able to do that for you. You can't ask someone to post your roll because you haven't made the first post.
.....here's to your special butterfly plan. I hope that it works for you. You really don't need to plan because this place works the way it is. I see that you are going to do it your way. Good luck with that.
Post roll and I will continue to help you.
You can't hang out with paying admission - which is roll.

My Grandpa's passing has not made me falter. It has made me even stronger and cemented my future in stone. Honestly, I have experienced much worse feelings then I am right now from nicotine withdrawal. I think the common cold is worse then this. Maybe it will get worse but right now (46 hours free) I feel great. I don't even crave or think about dipping already. On a scale from 1-10 my quit so far has been a 3 or 4 tops.
I am going to attempt to post roll so all you quitters that need my name on there can have it. Whether its on there or not though I won't be dipping. I will post roll for all of YOU and I will continue to quit dipping for ME! I already promised myself I am done before roll so it doesn't mean much to me, my promise to myself means much more. Hopefully my roll helps others =)
EDIT: Thanks to MN_Ben, Roll has been posted. Price of Admission paid.

I used to promise myself I would quit all the time. But then I wouldn't and it wasn't a big deal because what was the real consequence? There was none. It's easy to let yourself down because in your mind, especially an addict mind, you can easily justify not only why you didn't follow through on the promise you made to yourself but how you will do it right "next time".
You're new and it doesn't sound like your embracing the concept of brotherhood and accountability... probably because you don't know any of us, so you don't feel like you "owe" us anything. We're all just a bunch of weirdos on a quit forum...almost like a cult.
I used to feel the exact same way. I didn't get it. Who the fuck are these people and why should I promise them shit? I used to think that all the time.
However, when I started putting my promise down next to a bunch of other people who were fighting the same battle I was, I started to feel like there was something bigger going on and I needed to hold up my end of the bargain. Then...as time went on and I got to know some of these weirdos more, I didn't want to let them down and I also didn't want to see them fail. We had eachothers backs and picked eachother up when we were struggling. So while I was ultimately quitting for ME , that extra layer of accountability I got from posting roll was something that really strengthened my quit...it reall surprised me.
You're two days have been a breeze and that's great but you're only a few steps into a pretty rough journey. If I had a dime for every person who came through here claiming quitting was easy, posting roll wasn't necessary, it's only about ME, and then suddenly disappeared like a fart in the wind...I'd have a couple thousand dollars.
Don't post roll just to get us of your back. Post it because you're serious about quitting and build some accountability into your quit.
I'm 854 days quit and I can honestly tell you there's no way I could have made it this far without posting roll and building accountability.
You're "lone wolf" attitude is b.s. If quitting for yourself was so easy and you could do it on your own, why did you end up here? This place ain't so bad. Don't believe me? Post roll and find out for yourself.

Do you realize you posted this a good time after I posted Roll? I have made this promise to myself one time. The promise is this quit I am on right now. If you break that promise to yourself to quit you are weak. I will not be weak. This quit is 1 year, 10 months in the making. It was set for Jan. 1st, 2015. Yet here I am on day 3. No Fake has touched my lip. I don't need this site to quit. I need to keep nicotine out of my system to quit. This site is a tool to help me quit.
I am not a lone wolf. I am here and quitting today just like you. Can I do this on my own? I am confident I can. Do I want to do this on my own? Hell no. Why would I when I can help others and others can help me. This is what life is all about. Helping and being helped.
Thanks for your advice though. For every 100,000,000,000 that come before me walking the same walk and talking the same talk, there will be one badass motherfucker who tears nicotines fucking head off and sends themselves in to a nicotine free infiniteness. Hi, Im the GrizzlyBear.

Think I was writing it as you were posting roll. Timing of it doesn't matter, was just trying to share some advice.
You got all the answers though, so you don't really need anything from me.
Quit on...

Ignorance is bliss.
Notice how all these people who are trying to help you have quit dates in 2010, 2012, 2013? I really don't think they came in here just to type for the sake of typing. So stop with the know-it-all bullshit and read what they have to say; these people are here trying to help you overcome an addiction.
You're right with your last paragraph and the funny thing is every person that comes in here with that attitude thinks they'll be the one. Seldom happens. Just don't burn your bridges before you cross them.
As for your question about fake, you will not find any replacement with the same texture/feel... I know this because I was on the same hunt as you when I quit. I also used green tea and found that toothpicks helped because they gave my mouth something to do.
I wish you the best in your quit.
-
I haven't needed fake. And I dont care if someone has been quit for 1,2,5, or 10 years. Don't mean dick to me. What means a lot to me is being nicotine free.
Notice how I really seem to not give a flying fuck? I'm a stubborn asshole.
9 hours till day 4 'arse'
-
Approaching the end of day 4. Feeling awesome. Had no cravings all day until I got home and began relaxing on the couch. Simple piece of gum solved that problem. Life has slowly gotten better each day that I have been quit. I am excited to continue this journey!
So far this has been a breeze which I find rather weird. I am waiting and prepared for this bitch though. The shitstorm may just be brewing on the horizon. Bring it on ya worthless whore 'Finger'

Good work! Keep it going and keep your guard up.
Quit on...

This is where I come be a raging asshole and treat others like shit. I wish I could of ran into you on chat Diesel. I am a good guy and I really appreciate everything you said. I use the fire you guys bring here to fuel my desire to prove you wrong. Your helping me and I am grateful with my life for your help. This is the not so stubborn asshole talking by the way. ;)
EDIT: IM SORRY!!!!
-
GrizzlyBear nice job on your quit so far. Keep quit, one day at a time, every damn day.
Best part of this site is you don't need to like or agree with a damn person on here. Some of the vets are crazy assholes. Hell I don't know if I'd be close to anyone in my October Titans in real life. We're here to quit. If you're with us, keep posting roll.
I can't be a dick and talk about the Nic bitch or my addiction anywhere else, so I come here. Has worked for me. Take the rage and keep turning it into quit.
Also, for some reading: topic/10240055/1/?x=30#new (http://forum.killthecan.org/topic/10240055/1/?x=30#new)
I quit with you today, GB.

This is where I come be a raging asshole and treat others like shit. I wish I could of ran into you on chat Diesel. I am a good guy and I really appreciate everything you said. I use the fire you guys bring here to fuel my desire to prove you wrong. Your helping me and I am grateful with my life for your help. This is the not so stubborn asshole talking by the way. ;)
EDIT: IM SORRY!!!!
Nobody needs to apologize to me. I've been called every name in the book. "The festering sore on the underbelly of ktc" was my favorite.
Well you know I RESPECT you for you words. You aren't a festering sore by any means in my eyes. Your motivation for me and someone who has went through this and knows a lot more then my young and arrogant brain does. I aspire to reach the levels of your quit.
On that note, Thanks Diesel. I appreciate you for coming back and telling me "Good Work". Tells me a lot about your character.

I ain't sooo bad. I want to see everyone quit. That's the bottom line.
Quit on...

You are far from bad. You come back to help like many others here. It says a lot about who you are. I quit with you today Diesel!

Well day 5 is coming to a close and a day 6 is slowly becoming a reality. Reading the beginning of my intro it's blatantly obvious I just didn't get the KTC way. After a few large gulps of the kool-aid life has a completely different outlook. I am still doing this for me but I added all of my KTC family to this as well.
It's no longer about me but it is about US. Every one of US is battling the same addiction. My energy is no longer focused on this selfish attitude of doing this by myself. I still believe I could do it on my own but why in the hell would anyone want to do this alone? The support of KTC is LIFE CHANGING. I see a lot of "Guests" reading intros. If you are a "guest" reading this, throw that damn turd out of your mouth and get into this website. It's time to change your life. The people here are doing it and can HELP you do it too.
This place is the human race at its most caring and loving. Sure there is a lot of tough love but people would not be here if they didn't CARE. Time to CARE about your life and make the plunge. You can do it!
I QUIT WITH ALL OF YOU TODAY!

Welcome to the first day of the rest of your life. I know you are on day 6 but now you get it. The KTC way is the ONLY way. Glad you are on board.

Feeling great on day 18. Everyday this gets easier and easier. Cravings are nothing like before and they seem to last for a matter of seconds compared to 10-15 minutes in the early stages.
For all the guests who read this stuff, STOP what you are doing immediately. Create an account, take the dip out your lip, dispose all the cans down the toilet, and post roll. Don't be afraid of the quit. It's not as scary as you think. There is life on the other side and it is much brighter without a dirt turd in your mouth. Give it a shot. You have a lot to gain with little to lose!
I quit today with all my KTC brothers and sisters!

Great advice! Life has pulled me away from KTC lately. I definitely need to get back here and be more involved. Helping others really makes the quit easier. I think it also helps keep me accountable not only to the Vets like you but also to the quitters who just got here.
Day 19: Today feels even better then 18! My oral fixation has dropped immensely. No gum or seeds for well over 24 hours and ZERO cravings. Knowing how the nic bitch operates I am heavily prepared for whatever she is scheming up for me. GrizzlyBear-19 Nicotine- 0 flame1
