Hello everyone. Started dipping Skoal when I was 12. Was heavily addicted for 12 years. I quit for my fiance and my future family July 1, 2015. THE HARDEST thing I have ever done. I'm not out of the woods yet. As time goes by, I have been having heavy cravings lately (likely due to seasonal triggers like hunting season, cutting wood season, etc...) I will weather the storm and I will win the fight.
The reason I am coming to this site - even though I have not take a dip since my the middle of this last summer - is because for some reason I am craving the shit like crazy now. Is this normal to want it so long after I quit? Will I always crave it, say 5 or 10 years from now? I just want the stuff out of my mind gone. Every male I associate with (Grandpa, Dad, Uncles, Cousins, Friends, employees, etc...) dip. Everyone. That does not trigger me. Its things like driving my truck, deer hunting, pushing snow, driving my tractor, etc... that have been triggering me.
