Quit smoking and dipping 3 years ago and the dipping was way harder to overcome. I used the gum and the mints. The mints helped more but I was a cranky SOB for about two months. Wife understood but it really was hard as hell. Since I have quit, I feel better and gums have gotten better over time. Before I quit, my dentist told me that my gums were receding and my mouth looked like shite. It has taken 3 years for good reports on gum and overall mouth health. Obviously, it can effect everyone on a different level but I think I was probably heading down a bad path cancer wise.
1 pack every day or two and at least 3-4 cans a week. It really sucks but I would do it over again in a heartbeat.
ETA: Even 3 years later, if I smell cope long cut or any wintergreen dip, I start drooling. That shite still has me having cravings but I have gotten used to just not doing it.

Chantix is the way to go. I dipped from 16-19 and then started smoking. I quit around 30 but last 3-4 years of smoking did 2 packs a day and I absolutely loved coffee with my smokes. Had to give up coffee for about 2 months after I quit smoking. Chantix made me literally not want a smoke and I never had any side effects from it. As far as crazy dreams, I had those the times I tried quitting cold turkey also. I think the dreams are more from withdrawals than the chantix.
