Stay the course PQ. It gets MUCH better - and freedom is awesome.

Proud to be quit with you.
Hang in there bro. There will always be good and bad days. It's called life.

It is how you deal with life that matters!!!
Hey, PQ, this is a battle we fight every day, but with each daily victory our Quits get stronger. There will come a time down the road when you hardly even think of dip.

Your life is worth the struggle!

My dip addiction (grizz straight, skoal mint) started in boarding school, and has continued thru college. I'm 21 now and haven't had a lip in 3 days. My first day off of it I had a huge outburst with my mother and said some really horrible things. Thats when I decided to get some nicotine gum to ease my way into this. I kind of feel like Im just digging myself a hole with the gum, but I have a job and I go to school, cant afford to be crazy. Any advice. this sucks. the other day I took the leaves out of a green tea pouch and added some cayenne pepper and packed a lip, just to get through MNF.

Ive been off the can for 36 days.  I know that sounds like a short time to some, and a long time to those just now starting out.  To me it seems like, well... 36 days.  From everything I read, it says my body should have let  go of this physical addiction.  My questions is, Why do I feel so anxious in the evenings?  My mornings are fine.  I drink coffee and drive to work. I Eat lunch, chew some gum, work till the end of the day, and drive home.  Sure I have a few cravings during the day, but nothing that doesn't pass quickly.  But after I eat dinner and sit down, and as the night goes on, I feel like I'm slowly being wound up.  I slowly become anxious, and I want a dip.  Eventually I go to bed early, and when the morning comes it's like a reset button has been pressed, and the anxiety is gone.  But the next evening is the same thing.  Any of you guys experience this?
Its just what your mind is used to, the routine, keep beating it back.
Where'd you read that physical addiction is done at thirty days? Years of using a neurotoxin literally rewires the neural network in your brain. Be patient. A month of quit can't undo all of that.
"CLOSE THE DOOR. In my opinion, it?s the single most important step in your final quit. There is one moment, THE moment, when you finally let go and surrender to the quit. After that moment, no temptation will be great enough, no lie persuasive enough to make you commit suicide by using tobacco."

Did it take me this long to figure out that putting worm sh!# in my lip every other hour wasn't a good idea?
