Quick question, is using nicotine gum a good idea? I don't want to get hooked on it

On a phone so I'll be brief.

No, it's a terrible idea. Would you use Jim Beam to solve your Jack Daniels addiction?

Its kinda like playing russian roulette with all the bullets

Alright. Any suggestions with aids? Or should I just man up and deal with it?

Just quit...seriously you have to make the decision for YOU. I dipped for nearly 15 years and "tried to quit" several times - including using patches, gum, etc. Guess what, it never worked.

Finally, I got on this website to "plan" my quit (I didn't have any intentions of quitting that day). After reading some a few posts it finally just clicked with me - that I was a complete slave to nicotine...that I was an addict and it was completely running (and ruining) my life. The stories I read helped me realize that I was a slave BUT that I had the power to break free and regain control of my life.

That was 50 days ago (7/14). I won't lie and say it's been a walk in the park but I have used the tools on this website and I make the commitment each and every day to not dip...and I'll do that for the rest of my life. Make the commitment right now to break those chains and start the first day of the rest of your life! If I can do it, anyone can!

The oral fixation side of my quit was more difficult to deal with then the mind games. The good news is they're very manageable with Trident, sunflower seeds or even atomic fireballs. There are some reviews and coupons for fake dip HERE. Most folks will say you should use whatever helps you keep the poison out of your yap and has no nicotine. Her grasp will lessen with time. Whatever gets you through the day, gents. Get some.

Gotta leave the important stuff up top, no nic cold ass turkey is the way to go! It sucks. But it does get better. Chew fake, seeds, gum or whatever doesnt contain nicotene to get you through.

To repeat Redyota, nicotine gum is like an alcoholic changing from Jack Daniels to Jim Beam. Different taste, but the same drug.

You don't get hooked on the gum, you are hooked on the drug.

I've known people who used that crap for years because they could never stop.

If you want off the nicotine, you must stop completely.

I'm not sure how you are about fruit. I got the frozen bag with strawberries, blueberries, etc. And i sucked on that. But after you retrain your brain you won't need that oral fixation.

Hope it helps ... let me know if you need anything.
Above all ... trust in yourself and your quit.

I find (especially this time of the year) pitted fruits such as peaches or cherries are great as (1) they are a healthier option, and (2) the pits fit perfectly into that pocket of your lip.

Just to chime in on this...

Can someone explain the  tribute to the Big White Beast?

me too. I dont get it. My guess is that it is some inside joke from live chat or something. Judging from the pic someone thinks their POS 4 cyl is a "big white beast"???

I was wondering the same thing.

Yep... it's an inside joke. One that I'm on the outside of too.
