Quit MJ after 17 yrs a 1/2 oz a week user. HELP
Have any of you guys ever quit and struggled like I am? I know it is what I want to do but I am alienating everyone around me. Man this sucks. I can't seem to control myself. I am not yelling but I am so confused and emotional like a woman right now it is horrible.

I gave up Copenhagen a month ago after chewing for over 25 years. I just woke up one day and said fug this, I'm done and gave it up cold turkey. I had read in advance that giving up chew was equivalent to knocking a heroin habit because of the amount of nicotine in a single pinch of chew. I knew what I was in for in advance and it still kicked my ass. I ran the same emotional gamut you are going through and was a world class dick weed to be around. I am just now leveling off. It must have taken that long for all the nicotine to leave my system. There were days when I was about half crazy.
Nictoine is very difficult to cold turkey. I bought a can of fake tobacco they sell at wal-mart called smokey mountain. Mixed 1/2 a can of copenhagen with 1/2 a can of that and only allowed myself a certain number of dips per day. After a few days I cut down on the dips allowed and then started mxiing only 1/4 copenhagen with 3/4 smokey mtn. Did that for a week or so and then finally switched all the way over to the fake stuff with no copenhagen. It was much easier then i thought it would initially be. If i had to do it again i would also use wellbutrin or zyban to help in the process.

That may have been a better route to go, but in my mind, I'm either doing something or I'm not so that's why I said screw this I'm doing it cold turkey. That technique is not for everyone, but I knew it was best for my personality. I knew it would be harder up front, but would be over faster. The first three weeks were a total bitch, but the last week was a walk through the park on a comparative level.

Every week I put $25 into a box (what it was costing me to use Copenhagen plus a little extra) and after one year, I am going to take the money and do something with the family. Here's the kicker. I told my wife if I fell off the wagon for even one chew during that year, I would make myself triple what was in the kitty and donate the money to PETA. Needless to say, I won't let that happen come hell or high water.

It's tough. The main thing to remember is that your addiction is basically a perversion of the survival drives...somewhere along the line MJ got added in with Food, Water, Shelter, and Sex. Recognizing it as such makes it a bit easier, but nothing will make it a walk in the park.

Try finding a decent support group, but use your best judgement when "sounding" one out.

You also might try regular exercise. It will help flush the metabolites over time, and help you re-establish a normal wake-sleep cycle.

Hang in there, and good luck.

Havelock offers you some sound advice. Exercise is key, even if it only is walking, it will help your body. For your mind, understand what you're doing is to help yourself and your REAL friends will "weed" themselves out time. Explore new interests and look for new hobbies. Good Luck and God Bless.

I am another person with a chronic addiction to weed. Excuse the pun. Nevertheless I have tried many times to quit smoking weed. Now I live in san diego and have smoked MEXICAN regular weed and also the chronic aka the stickiest of the icky aka Cali weed.... and let me tell you it is MUUUUUUCH harder to quit smoking chronic than it is reggie aka regular weed. I dunno if they are putting something in it or it just grows like that but this chronic is a mother to quit smoking... Understand I have an athletic background as well and i have found that during times where lifting weights it is much easier to stop smoking weed... for one because after a good workout you still get that irie feeling from being tired... #naturalhigh.

I had read in advance that giving up chew was equivalent to knocking a heroin habit because of the amount of nicotine in a single pinch of chew.

It must have taken that long for all the nicotine to leave my system. There were days when I was about half crazy. I would go from zero to sixty on the pissed off scale in about two seconds. Now that it’s over with (knock on wood) I feel a lot better, have more energy and have been hitting the weights and kick boxing hard again. What you are going through is totally natural, a pain in the ass, but totally natural. Expect your emotions to be off the chart for a period of time. If you get pissed off around your family or friends, take a walk, get out of there. Just know you made the right choice, the smart choice, things will level off, and you will be a stronger person for having the rocks to kick the habit. Hang in there and good Luck!!

dip doesn't really affect you or the people around you like a marijuana addiction.. that's like biting your nails.

Like biting your nails? As far as I know, biting yoru nails won't cause cancer or cost you a shit load of money. As far as quitting, quitting weed is easier than to quitting the Chew habit because of the physical addiction factor related to nicotine..........seriously, look it up.
