I'm trying to quit chewing tobacco, any recommendations?

Question

I picked up "dipping" on my college baseball team about 5 years ago. I'm at the point where I know I'm addicted, especially in certain situations. I feel like I'm more addicted to the habits than to the actual nicotine itself. For instance, I feel like I NEED to throw in a chew when I'm...

- Playing baseball/golf

- After a meal

- On a long car ride

- Playing video games

- Drinking

- After a workout

Anyone have any recommendation or success stories that might help my situation? Any responses are welcome..

Answer 1

You could suck on mints or a fruit flavored candy, or even menthol cough drops, or go for the nicotine gum, or you can pick up a mass load of your favorite food or snack or candy and eat them every time you want to chew. You may or may not gain weight through that...
