I found this site when I was thinking of quitting and used some of the information to prepare. Thank you to those that put this site together!!
I am 49 years old and have been dipping since I was 16 or 17 years old. I have never tried quitting but thought about it a few times. When Tony Gwynn, one of the greatest hitters in baseball and dipper, died a couple of months ago, it really shook me up because he was only a few years older than me. I decided to quit and made my quit date August 3rd, my wedding anniversary. I reduced my nicotine intake so much over the last three weeks I decided to go ahead and do it! July 28, 2014 is my official quit date.
I am nicotine free right now and feel like my brain has grown some fuzz, no headaches so far and my mind is throwing some cravings my way. I am using the Smokey Mountain alternative which helps with the oral fixation, but I am happy to 48+ hours in I am looking forward to being completely snuff free.
