Well i was not expecting to be awake every couple hours last night but there i was tossing and turning, so please tell me that doesn't last too long, other than that holding strong, have some major craves but not giving in
Just finished my first week.

It will suck the cravings will feel like they last forever (i highly recommend seeds, gum, fake dip etc as the oral fixation is the most frustrating)

Look into taking something to help you sleep nyquil, tylenol pm and the like. The night time craves are the worst because there is so little you can to to preoccupy your mind.

After the first few days it gets easier as you are invested in the quit now (and your brothers here are invested in your quit as well.)

PM if you need a number as we are in same timeframe.

Great that's fine. Just checking. I sent you a PM with a video of how to post roll in case you have a hard time figuring it out (as many of us did)

Whatever, you need to chew or suck that is nic free go right ahead! I used fake dip for about a week. I chewed the hell out of sunflower seeds. Many chew gum or use atomic fireballs.

I don't care if your keeping your mouth busy turning tricks on the corner. You my friend are quit!

get into your quit group, post roll and join the party!

I quit like hell with you!

Hi my name is Mike and i have taken my last pinch of Copenhagen as of Friday Nov 22 2013, i have tried many many times over the years, with a week or so being my best results, most of the times a day or so more like it, The first week seemed to go very good, the second week has been ruff, when i decided i wanted to quit i didn't want to just replace it with something else, this by the way was my own plan not necessarily well thought out, so the first week i stayed on tract, now i find myself on the gum and it is driving me crazy, Stumbled onto this site and finding so much good reading that i had to join up and well here I am
Mike, first welcome to KTC.

Second lose the gum, if you're using nicotine gum. We are cold turkey here buddy. You have found the site now dump the gum and jump in with both feet and do this thing.

I can promise you the gum is only going to prolong this process, and it will enable you to want to chew. Nicotine is what were all addicted to, you've just changed the delivery system.

Dump it, get accountable and find out what KTC can really do for you.

Welcome to the site. You should start posting roll call with us today. The sooner the better. If you have been quit since November 22 then you fall into this group. March

See you around the site.

ps, you don't mean nic gum do you?
