The hardest thing I"ve ever done!!
« 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..

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.
