Wade....hang in there it will get easier....I am 22 years without a Smoke....and 8 years now without a Dip...it can be done....but only You can do it....after  2 weeks....it is not physical any more....it's all psychological now...good luck...you can whoop it....

Badger:
Wade, sometimes it takes a good scare. You are past the physical part but for the rest of your life you cannot have just one. I quit smoking twice for over a year and one ciggerette got me started again both times. I have been trying to quit for the past year again and just struggling with it, I don't feel like I am committed to it as I need to be. I have a million excuses why I am letting the cigs kill me. Really mad at myself right now. Steve

n2everythg:
Thanks much for the support guys.
Actually I am still addicted to the nickoret gum stuff. So not entirely off the nic. trying to ween slowly off that as well.

Determined to stick with it this time tho.

Steve, you are right... I needed a really good scare. the other motivators were apparently not enough. You can do it too tho if you really want to... you already proved that to yourself sounds like. worst part is it sucks each time. dont know why I continued to put my self through that multiple times.

nice Job El D - I will be excited when I can say 1 month!. havent made it that far in 20 yrs.

 Wade, It's been 20 some years since I was a 2 and 3 pack a day guy. I tried dipping and chewing hoping that would help me quit smoking. It doesn't. I will not touch Dip or Chew or a fine cigar because I know I won't be able to quit. I've actually woke up from a dream that I was smoking a cigarette scared that It was real.

  I like the taste and feeling too much. I gained 10 pounds when I quit  but feel a whole lot better. Now when I'm driving on long road trips, I keep some toothpicks handy. Like Mike said, now it's just a hand habit. Hang in there, Bud. You'll feel better for it, mentally and physically.

Pappy:
Ya I quit smoking 30 years ago and really wasn't that bad,because I really wanted to,not just thought I needed to,I started chewing a few years later,then quit that for the same reason,then started dipping a couple of years after that,don't know why  ??? but still do it,I know I need to quit
but just don't want to,maybe someday. :) Good luck Wade it is a good thing for sure. :)
