AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Chris is trying to quit dipping. He is driving me crazy. Oh my gosh. 

I'm trying very, very hard to be supportive, but seriously, he needs a dip, bad.

  • It must be so difficult for him...and you!!  Have you bought him some lollipops and gum to keep his mouth busy?

  • He's had gum, and beef jerky that comes in cans that look like dip cans.  He is of tomorrow, and I Work. I hope that he doesn't break down and buy a can.

  • He said he doesn't want the nicorette gum. I don't know if he has tried it before and it hasn't worked, or he just doesn't believe in it?

    A lot of people have told me the gum has made their stomachs upset to the point of vomiting. I dont want to try it for that reason. Support him, when I tried to quit smoking my H was a total a$$ and told me "you will just start smoking again in a few days when you get too stressed out" ugh I wanted to punch him.

    I think I am being supportive. He kept saying yesterday he wanted to stop and get a can. I kept telling him no, he could do this. I would never tell him he is just going to start in a few days.

    I asked him this morning about the nicorette and he said no, he might as well just take a dip. He's had a headache since yesterday.

    I just have to remember that his crankyness is not me, it's just part of what he's going through. I think that's the hardest part for me; remembering that he isn't mad at me.

  • It sounds like you are doing a great job being supportive.  I remember when I was quitting smoking after 15 years Embarrassed H was the only reason I made it (well actually he was the one who made me, so his support was crucial).  I did it cold turkey and what helped me the most was him always telling me how proud he was of me.  And the few times I slipped up and cheated, he didn't get too down on me, he just told me to pick myself back up and eventually I would do it.  I'm 3 years clean (well over a year without even a single cheat puff) now and I can safely say I will never ever touch one ever again.  Which is awesome to me considering I used to say I would never be able to quit.  Just hang in there, it is a horrible thing to go through.  Sometimes I thought my heart would pound out of my chest, and sometimes I'm sure he maybe wished it would.  Tell him you're proud of him :)
