Gents,

Today is day 7. I have had some moments; however, I am hanging in there. I just have to learn to take a step back when I start flipping out. I went out and bought some bags of tea, by which I just roll up and place into one of my old pocket. Of course, going through gum and seeds like crazy. Again, it is a great feeling to be seperate from the habit of dipping.

Thanks gents for your comments. Okay, don't laugh. Just tried to dip some coffee. Fuck that was horrible!
Only laughing because I tried that too. Coffee and brown sugar 50/50 wrapped in a piece of coffee filter worked pretty well. I'm just seeds now
I tried the coffee thing also. Didn't work worth a hoot. I never wanted to admit it because I thought it was a prank and I fell for it. Maybe it was and I still haven't been told. If so,, at least I know I'm not the only one. 'crackup'
Definitely got to join this club!

Day 4 - having my moments! Decided since Walmart was close by the gym I would swing by to see if they carried any fake dip products. Long story short....they looked at me as if I had 3 eyes! So there is another store I have checked here in Hawaii, that doesn't carry any products besides Nic gum to help those that are in the process of quiting.

I do feel a since of freedom by not dipping. Yes, I miss it. But in theory, why miss something that can and will kill you. I keep a pic of my 3 daughters (6, 4 and 2) with me at all times. Every time I want to stop and grab a can at the local market, I grab that pic and say, how fucked up would it be to miss out on their lives by dicking around with dip.

I hope I'm not boring folks with my messages. This is my only outlet to express how and what I'm feeling.

Later gents and thanks for listening to my chatter.
Day 4 is huge. You made it through the physical side of things. Now, it's the mental games. You can order a lot of the fake stuff online, and in the meantime, sunflower seeds work wonders in keeping the oral fixation managed which help keep those nicscreams down to a manageable volume.

Gents....having a fuckin rough day. I went to 2 different military bases looking for some fake dip. But beepin nothing. I even said, why is still stuff not available for those who are trying to quit? Of course I was eyeing every tin they had available. I'm feening hard right now!!!! Sitting in front of the oven waiting to finish cooking some chicken legs....gotta eat some food. Day 3 still going strong but fuck this sucks! Just would love to toss one in....
It's fucking tough - 3 days is too many to throw away. Fight through the crave, jump into live chat or read intros or words of wisdom or HOF speeches - whatever it takes to keep that shit out of your system. Take a few to order some fake online if you can't find it - it will take a few to get to you but better than not having any and looking where they sell the real thing.
Find a local Walmart if available. They sell Smokey mountain, which is good. My advice is to call before you go and ask a store if they have any in stock that way you do not go and find out they do not and then are left staring at the real chew. It may prove to be too tempting this early in your quit. You are doing the right thing by coming here when you are craving! you got this!
I agree 100%!

Get the Smokey Mountain. Listen to Jake.

It will be the difference between life and death.

Wal-Marts and Circle K both carry them alot.
