I been dipping about 30 years now, I need to quit but don't want to afraid I will start eating more and blow up like a cow! Heck I'm already over weight now..

you can quit man, just have to want to. Ask God for help and He will provide it. I am an alcoholic and put it down May 5 last year. I've been chewing red man since I was 14-15 years old. I'm 39 now. I threw the red man down June of last year. Double set of withdrawals.lol better now. Jesus will take those habits if you ask. You'll feel a lot better after a few weeks too. No more heartburns from [Please excuse my language... I'm an idiot]. lol good luck. keep your mind busy

Take a 10 day fishing to a remote area and only pack half a can. Worked for me.

I've chewed Levi garret for 34 yrs. 2 packs a day for prolly 15 wish I could quit

It all sounds dang good to me, I'm done.

When quitting smoking I told myself I would smoke a pack tomorrow but I won't smoke today. That was 7 plus years ago. When I decided to quit drinking I said to myself I would drink a Quart of Crown Royal tomorrow but won't buy or drink any today. I still have a quart I bought last year in my cupboard unopened. LLL

Larry, great advise. I know giving up his tobacco is gonna be rough for a while, so can I come over and take that crown off your hands to get me through it LOL. Thanks to everyone that's chimed in on this thread.

I tell my wife I am saving it for when the dollar collapses. It will be better than gold at that point. It could come in handy at a Zombie apocalypse also and if that happens I may drink it myself. LLL

It's been 4 hours so far, I'm still alive.....not very happy about much, but I'm here. How's the rest of y'all doin?

its been almost exactly 24 hours since my last dip. I can say that I really didnt crave one today, but I sure do feel different. I almost feel light headed and woozy... but Im alive!

I just feel angry

oh yeah. I am mad at the world right now

Sunflower seeds and Big Red gum helped me alot...after I got through the 1st few days and the nicotine was coming out of my system it got better...every day was better...hang in there guys you can do it...

Yodel, lol, I chewed so many seeds today, the other half of my mouth is as raw as the side I normally chewed on....lol....oh crap....this really ain't that funny....pathetic.....dang

Riverman, like I said before, its as easy as not dipping anymore. That's it. But when I was standing on the bank of my favorite fishing run casting to rising trout it sure was weird not to have a dip in. You will have those moments as well. Driving without it was actually easier than I thought it would be.

For the record when I quit, I had reduced DOWN to 3-4 cans of Copenhagen long cut per day and had been on that routine for over 20 years. I just quit. That's it.

Just stay busy! I went to the gym and killed the kick bag over a week. As others stated chewing gum sunflower seeds. I did gain weight the first few months evan though I worked out like crazy. Hang in there Riverman-.

What we need is another trapperman auction to keep our minds occupied

Good luck guys...I have you in my prayers.

On a call, that's awesome, thanks

To whoever asked if your mouth will heal....YES! I was totally amazed at how different my gums/lip looked after three days. With the exception of where my gums have receeded, they look like I never chewed. I chewed a can a day for about ten years. Been almost a month and it's getting a LITTLE easier...not quite as angry and got some sleeping pills from the doc so the last two nights are the first time I've slept good since I quit.
