Hi. Welcome.

I think you have it a little backwards. We are not here to have you tell us how to Quit. We are here to help YOU, because as far as Quitting goes, you don't know dick about it.

Yet.

Instead of all the accolades you're expecting from everyone here on what you wrote, how about you start reading about what Quitting is all about, because it's definitely NOT about swtching from liquor to Bud Lite.

Happy Birthday, btw. I was about 29 when I finally started to pull my head out of my ass and learn that I don't know everything.

Let me know if you need any help,

-Nolaq

Nolaq, I would like to say that you may be older, but you are in no way more educated on quitting tobacco than me. Way to try and downplay my age by saying "when I was 29". You took my post completely wrong.

I would now like to update and say that 2 months now without chewing, and over a month after that post I initially made, I stopped drinking beer. I drank beer to help me get over the urge at the time when it was really tough. It did help me, maybe it doesn't apply to you or a lot of people, but we are all different and perhaps someone that read this tried it and it helped them.

You are not god and you are not mister know it all. You sound like a bitter, miserable person that should start chewing again.

I don't need your advice or input. I am free and clear of all drugs now, and just today read your message, so in no way have you helped. You best not post negative comments like you did towards me.

You know why? Because you dont know DICK.

CHeers.

How about you actually do some reading on this site? If you do, you'll see that we don't need your asinine little "use a different drug to help you cope with quitting another drug" nonsense.

Feel free to join us and participate, but learn what we do here first.

PS- don't ever even joke about someone chewing again.

let me try to lay this out for you..

This is a website dedicated to quitting tobacco/nicotine.

It has 21000 members

It is closing in on 3 million posts

The founding members of the site have north of 3000 days quit each.

The people who answered you here have over 4000 days quit between them.

We know the secret to not only stopping for a few weeks, but making a quit last a lifetime. That secret is found here. It is yours for the taking. But you have to want it.

Day 1 of operation NoSkoal failed as I decided to smoke one of my brother's cigs to cure the craving. I've been chewing trident all day to try to ease the oral fixation. Ugh. :-/ Anyone else try to use cigs to curb their dipping? bad idea?

Sunflower seeds maybe?

Cigs = terrible idea.

Seed = great idea.

NICOTINE is your enemy. Smoking is merely changing the delivery method.

you just have to make up your mind to do this. It's going to suck for a little while, but if you keep using nicotine it is going to suck for the rest of your life. And if you are unlucky enough to get cancer, it's going to suck more than you can imagine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IH7mjpl3U1w

We quit one day at a time... can you make it through today without nicotine? Is your word any good? Visit our welcome center, flush your stash of anything that has nicotine in it and decide to live in freedom rather than slavery.

Was that a serious question?

People much smarter than me can probably find the classic John Candy line in Uncle Buck when he tells his sister-in-law that he quit smoking cigarettes - he moved onto cigars and is on the 5 year plan of Cigars then Pipes then Chewing tobacco, etc.

It's classic.

TOTALLY forgot about this!!!

I just bought this movie and watched it with my kids about two weeks ago.

That and The Great Outdoors.

'Lips and assholes!'

Thanks for finding the clip Chewie! Such a classic line and definitely takes on new meaning when you are quit.

Both movies are classics and both hold up pretty well except for the storyline with the older son and the "local" girl in Great Outdoors. That is brutal.

Back in the day I thought that girl was SO hot...

You got problems dude

I guess THIS is what I was remembering...

No, you were right Chews. She was a hottie.

Sorry for interrupting the flow but I've got to say this. Today I had one of my coworkers flag me down from across the office just to ask me how I quit dipping. I guess he saw my status updates on Facebook and got curious. When I went over to his desk I saw two cans of snuff sitting there beckoning to me but I never missed a beat. I told him what I did and referred him to KTC. I don't know if he'll come around but I'll keep hammering away at him to get him to leave the dark side.

this... is... AWESOME!

well done sir!

I sent him the link to "Randy and His Cancer". I read that in the early days of the suck and it pretty much steeled my resolve at that point and made the suck more bearable. I'm trying not to be too forward or forceful because I know he has to want to quit for himself not just to appease his friend and coworker. All I am doing is providing access to a helpful resource that he may use when he decides to take the first step towards recovery.
