Did you use any aids (not AIDS) to help you quit? I've been chewing for going on 12 years now and I'm ready to kick.

I tried going cold turkey, and it didn't quite work. I then tried the patch, and that was counter-productive. I finally tried hypnosis, and that was just enough to do it.

That's not to say that hypnosis was painless, mind you. I went through full withdrawals, which were even worse because they were unexpected. I managed to get through it, though.

I was able to quit for about 3 months with the help of nicotine gum. However, my heart just wasn't into it.

It's too bad nicotine gum isn't cheaper, or I would be chewing that all the time. It tends not to gross out women like my Skoal does.
