I made my mind up, I've been chewing for 23yrs.. I'm at 5 cans a day , I know this will be the hardest thing yet, thelast 18 months I've lost 98lbs and I figured i conquered that I'm really for this challenge. I found this site and joined thankful ill have help from fellow quitters. My quit date is 10/26/14. Which is tomorrow. Wish me luck. .
I have 7 days today. I would wish you luck but luck really has nothing to do with it. It's more like a mathematical equation. If you follow the formula outlined by the veterans of this site you will post roll every day, get involved in discussions like I'm doing right now and PM people in your quit group. Something happens when you do that. It gets you out of your own selfish character and gets you involved with a group of people who have the same addiction as you.
When I chewed (dipped, whatever) my Copenhagen Long Cut I'd go to the store and ask for it. Then I'd get pissed off at the clerk because they could never find it. I'd say "NO! Not that one! The fucking one at the top and three to the right. How long have you worked here!".
Then I'd go home, wait for my wife and kids to go to bed and then I'd be all giddy to put a dip in and read my book. Damn that is pathetic. But, it's what I did. Of course that's what I did...I was addicted to it.
