First post on here-
I have had one rub in the last two days, my one was yesturday and have went all day without one. I've become so sick it's not funny. I was rubbing 2 to 3 cans a day before this. I'm dizzy, hot and cold, my body just aches, and my body just feels weak. Not trying to act like a wuss but should I try to wean myself off or is cold turkey the way to go? Also I ordered smokey mountain any input on that?
Smokey mountain is a fuckin' life saver. I highly recommend it...especially on long drives, fishing, sitting around watching tv. It's been a big time catalyst in helping me quit.
I think tapering off is pretty effective...I set a quit date, and tapered off starting three weeks before my quit. I think it helped immensely.
^^^ Nope....
Pull that fucking band-aid and man up! It is going to suck, your body is craving nicotine and the poison in chew, it is messing with your mind.
Keep quit and in 3-7 days the SUCK will be over but tapering and your will have to do it again in a couple days.
Drink gallons of water, work out, steam room, and get the poison out of your system.
Get some fake chew, seeds and gum, anything to help your stay quit.
I'm not the world's genius when it comes to quitting so take my opinion for what it's worth....I'd say gather all the knowledge you can and read like a son' bitch. I'd also agree that ripping the band-aid off all at ounce is probably one of the best ways to tackle this mother fucker, but whatever way you get yourself quit is the right way.
Lastaddiction you offered good advice, keep the quit strong! I tappered down for years before my quit, it doesn't work. I went from Cope to pouches, then I did pouches 24/7, so that didn't help... I got Nic gum and tried to quit but I was only supplementing my chewing habit. Another good one was, I will quit after this can or after the weekend, or my birthday, or my son's birthday...
The nic bitch is sneaky, they only way to beat her is cold turkey...
