I quit for a solid year and decided I could dip once in awhile and not get hooked again. Boy was I wrong. The way iw as able to quit was to stay busy as long as I was awake. Once you make it past the first 7 days there is no longer a physical addication and it is all mental. I found that as soon as I allowed myself to grow bored that was it. I plan to stop again very soon.

I quit for 4 days this year, then right back to it. I think it is harder to quit than smoking. I used to smoke, then started dipping during my time in the military. 4 days is the longest I have ever quit. Good luck to all of you trying to quit.

I dipped Jr High through about age 20. Doc told me I had a polyp on my lip, so I switched to smoking.

Smoked lightly for many decades, but tapered off and went back lightly dipping (Cope fine cut) as indoor smoking was getting banned in more and more places.

Tried quitting both cold turkey several times...didn't work.

Finally quit for good about 5 yrs ago. Difference was this time that I have kept a pack of cigs in my desk drawer and a can of snuff in my vehicle so I see it every single day, and every single day I have to make a decision....I stare it in the face and tell it "frick you".
