This is my last midnight, and I have been diping Copenhagen. I sit here all night with nothing to do but spit. Please, someone, jump the fence so I can take you out.

Anyway, I have been craving it, not killing, Copenhagen. Anyway, how hard is it to kick the habit?

dip.. hmm, nicotine. I've never smoked cigs or dipped, but it depends on how you are "wired" as to how easy it is to quit.
I've had friends that quit heroin with relative ease and still can't quit smoking... partly because you can't walk into a 7-11 and buy heroin... or at least not at any of the ones I've been in.

and even once you quit, the mappings in your brain, once addicted to something, are permanent... so you will stay an addict in the technical sense.
crap, now I'm forgetting the neuroscience I studied, but I believe it is the dopamine release that is being effected... I could be wrong on that.

anyway, good luck. try to find something that is a good incentive - like someone cuts your balls off if they see you dipping...

it sucks man..ive been dipping for a year and half now. how long have you been doing it? quit now if you havent been doing it long because it really sucks. I hate it now, but i seem to be doing it more, ill put in a dip, take it out and go eat, then put one in right after. Its a bitch habbit and hard to quit, oh yea, and mighty costly.

No slack3r, I would consider some nicotine gum or a patch and see obviously what may work. I have two friends who have dipped for many years on copenhagen and they have the same complaint. Can't quit or won't try, but one had precancious growth and had it removed. Don't go there, please don't.

I mean I have a brother who CAN"T quit and he is dying from smoking, aids and emphysema.

Common bro, give yourself a chance to grow up.

These two guys I mentioned about this are friends like over 35 years. They started in high school and believe me your better off to quit now and save your life, if not your health. Once that is gone, there is nothing left to live for. They hate themselves for not quitting before it became a real health problem and a real hard addiction to tobacco.

I was in the hospital for awhile back in high school and the other guys that were in there too couldn't smoke. they were goin gnuts - so the first thing they give them is nicontine gum. and the first thing that everyone did when they chewed it was puke their brains out. apparently it delivers it a little faster than your body is used to and you puke.
which is interesting b/c if you get nicotine fast enough you will just have a heart attack.
then these guys in the hospital with me all went on the patch - then they were fine. one of the guys was off for a week and noticed that all of his clothes reeked of cigarettes and he had never noticed how bad it smelled before and he said he was "never going to smoke again". he said he felt bad and now he knew why so many people couldn't stand it.
afte ryou had been there about two weeks they'd let you go outside under supervision and have a smoke if you smoked - every single one of them started smoking again when given the chance.

tough to get off.

on the other hand, I know a couple people that did it cold turkey and never went back. it depends on how your brain deals with the chemicals.

I hate Copenhagen, not enough juice. I have been dipping Kodiack for 2 years. I can't quit. So kick back and enjoy your Fat Muchado (dip)!
