Title: The hardest thing I"ve ever done!!
Post by: HickoryBill on March 31, 2012, 01:23:08 am

Well guys I finally quit chewing snuff.... I was addicted to Grizzly wintergreen longcut since I was 14 0r 15( 10 Years) I gotta say quitting is  the hardest thing I've ever done. It's been 1 month since I decided to quit, thanks to all mint leaf chew and nicotine patches it's safe to say I got it about whipped..It feels real good!!! ;) ;)

I never did snuff but chewed tobacco for a few years. It was way harder for me to quit than the 3 packs of Marlboros a day I used to smoke over 30 years ago.   I do still smoke an occasional cigar but never had a problem setting them aside.

Congrats!!! Never could get into the chew or snuff, but I smoked over 2 packs a day for years. Quite in 86'. Still have the urge for a GOOD cigar or pipe but I will not go back.
Best of luck..

Do your self a favor and DO NOT CHEAT! Smoked for 15 years and now have quit for two years. The desire still has not gone away.

Hate to tell you this Paul, but it has been over 20 years for me and I still crave a good cigar or pipe. The smell of todays cigs just make me ill.
