Day 13. Feelin' good. Sleep is normal now, cravings are not as strong (but they're still there) and the Red Hots and Smokey Mountain are helping. Biggest trigger is still in the evening after dinner.... But I expect it and plan for it so it's no that big of a deal. I got this!

DAY 10. Double-fuckin-digits. That's a big deal to me fellas. Thank you all for your support.
It's a big a deal! Keep up the good work!
Double digits is awesome Picker!!! I was jacked when I hit day 10 too. You are becoming a badass quitter. Keep it up bro!
Thanks guys. Rickddd.... I've been playing a lot and it has gotten much easier to play without craving dip.... Im really glad that wasn't as bad a trigger as thought it would be.
Thats good, picker. Playing wasn't really a trigger for me, but the first time I played a gig and had a beer, was a huge trigger. (could have been the beer as much as the gig I suppose!). I substituted fake stuff and it was fine.

I know the feeling I was so happy to the day I hit double digits. Your doing a awesome job and keep up the fight. Kick that addictions ass ODAAT.
I never saw a wild thing sorry for itself. A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough without ever having felt sorry for itself.?

Picker,
Well done on the double digit membership! We are going to be in this club till jan'14 right?
Ive read most of your posts over the past few days and i am impressed with your resolve. You seem to want this quit fully and completely.
I quit with you now, tomorrow, when we reach HOF, and for the rest of our days. I quit with you in the early double digits knowing how much it hurt to get this far.
You are strong. Because of that, so are we. I quit with you in good times and bad.
-Grizzfall.
Hell yeah man... I'm with ya!

Day 8 is going well. I got a good night sleep for the second night in a row and the lifesavers and smokey mountain are helping today. Unfortunately I had to give up the seeds.... they are chewing up my gums and cheek pretty bad...anyone else ever have a problem with that? I sucked on seeds for a full day pretty much nonstop so it's no big surprise my mouth hurts......
Same problem, but in reverse.

I was using Smokey Mountain more than seeds. And my gums looked just as bad as when I was dipping. I think anything that you put in your lip or cheeks is gonna cause damage.
Atomic Fireballs.

I'm not even kidding. Get some. They rock...
If you can tolerate the pouches, those are pretty nice and not too bad on your gums.
My unscientific and untested thoughts on this issue. In the beginning, nothing is going to work or taste great. Anything probably works as well as anything else. Put a few pebbles in your cheek. Doesn't matter. Your brain is still trying to squeeze some nicotine out of whatever is in there. When it doesn't get it, brain says its no good, switch to something else.
Don't get me wrong, it helped me tons to have my homemade coffee and brown sugar packets, and then I went through more seeds than I thought possible. Then, eventually, my subconscious brain figured out that it wasn't going to get any nicotine from the crap in my cheek, and then I didn't care.
I am just saying that ultimately, nothing is going to really satisfy. The satisfaction comes from beating down the nic-bitch each and every time she comes calling.
