Thank you all for responding sorry I have not responded till now just been real busy. I am probably going to try mint snuff just been trying to find a place locally that sells it, but it looks like I will have to order online. I have been cutting down a lot though which I have been doing now for awhile. Just can't seem to kick it which is why I am most likely going to do mint snuff. Guess I have strong oral fixation. Been trying to change habits though I don't take a chew right after eating anymore and been trying to keep from taking every 3 to four hours by chewing gum, and I have been writing down how many I have in a day to keep track and if I go over the set limit I have set for myself well I start trying to stick to it again. When I first joined I was inspired by all that i read so I really tried to stop cold turkey but then I cracked after 22 hours so then I came up with this new plan that i wrote about earlier. I believe I can do it now but it will have to be gradual cause well what I experienced that 22 hours wasn't pleasant, and I already suffer from a type of depression that I cannot take meds for cause well I do not do well on I tried couple times before and it just makes it worse. Basically the idea is I will extend the time between dips which I am close to doing soon so it will be every 4 to 5 hours and keep extending till I am not allowed any, and hopefully with the gum and mint snuff I can accelerate my time table I came up with be like all you wonderful people who have kill the can. I am not sure how this works either for help and support do i just add the people that have responded to my post as friends for some sort of support systems cause I am a little confused on that, because i thought I had to completely stop before I did that if someone can help me understand how this works I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks again for helping.
Man, you are making this way, way more complicated than it has to be.
1. Flush all remaining tobacco products down the toilet
2. Post roll in the October 2012 HOF group that you won't use nicotine today.
3. Quit today, repeat tomorrow.
You can buy whatever the hell you want for the oral fixation. I chewed coffee grounds and tea for the first couple of weeks. I use the fake chew (smokey mountain) and chew a crapload of gum (I buy the 180 piece bags at target). Other use seeds, atomic fireballs, hard candy, whatever it takes to keep dip out of your mouth.
If you want this, and I mean REALLY want this, then flush that shit now and quit. It's been done by thousands of us here and it can be done, but you have to have the stones to do it. We can't give you balls, only you can.
