Sorry for your loss. So hard to lose a loved one this way.
You're spot on: Put the fricking nicotine down. I did 29 years ago when my first child was born. Never looked back. I'm alive today for it.

Have you tried nicotine pouches? I alternated between smoking and dipping for over 20 years before trying pouches a few years ago and haven’t touched tobacco since. Completely satisfies my nicotine cravings.

I haven’t tried but was thinking about trying those Zen things. Not sure if I spelled it correctly. I’ve tried nicotine gum but it made me feel bad.

Eta: Haven’t had a cigarette in 15 years but I prefer smoking to dipping all day long. Never missed dip when I was smoking but still think about cigarettes while I dip. Cigarettes with coffee were divine

Eta2: Saying that, will never smoke one again

so quit....every behavior is a choice. Choose to stop. It IS that simple.
Yes you will have some withdrawal but you wont die. Take it an hour at a time.


You simple man that really has no clue.

Addiction is very real and impacts people in so many different ways.

Sounds like he made it into his 70s.

That's a damn good run.
I mean, at age 70, I am fully aware that genetics and poor past decisions will eventually jump out and go, "SURPRISE!" but I'm going kicking and screaming. I don't know many 70 year olds in the shape I'm in right now, and wondor sometimes if all the working out and running and monitoring what I eat is just a hobby and my end is meant to be on death's own terms, anyway, no matter what I do. .

It’s worth a try for sure. There are several common brands at most convenience stores. Zyn is most expensive but one of my least favorites. My go to is Velo wintergreen 6mg. $3-$5 per can depending on store/promo sales. I tried several brands, flavors & strength before knowing what i liked best.
I did the gum for awhile too. Didn’t love it, and it was messy.

I’m gonna start up again when I hit 85 (if I live that long).

Love a cigarette with coffee or a cocktail.
