Review (5/5): helping me overcome nicotine addiction
Update:
Day 7:
I've been tobacco free for 7 days now, something I NEVER thought I could do. When buying beaver chew I was hoping to just cut down on chewing, but it worked so good I decided to go cold turkey. The withdrawal process was a nightmare, worst experience I've ever had. It amazes me that something so cruelly addictive is legal. This chew definitely is not Copenhagen, but it will help get the monkey off your back. After day 3 the urge for tobacco gets easier and easier to handle. Thank you beaver chew, you probably saved my life.
The sore gums I had around day 2-4 are completely gone now.
Day 4:
chewing nothing but beaver mint. Nicotine withdrawals finally started to subside this morning. This chew is the real deal, didn't think I would ever make it this long. It's strange because you can convince yourself this stuff is the same as regular chewing tobacco and that will get your head through the addiction but your body is still screaming at you the entire time, saying " somethings wrong here! Help!"
Pros-
-it tastes like mint tobacco
-love being able to chew on it and swallow it
-I like that it's finely ground snuff and gets everywhere in your mouth
- it has little bit of a burn to it
- I like how sticky it is
Cons-
My gums still feel sore
Day 2:
This stuff is the best tobacco free chew I have tried. Iv been tobacco free 2 days. Yes I'm freakin irritated as hell, yes I can't think straight, yes I'm snappy, but at least it mostly feels like I'm sucking on some good old tobacco. This stuff is good for the mental addiction tobacco gives us, physical addiction still SUCKS SO BAD.
But, my motivations for quitting chewing are that I don't want mouth cancer! Have you seen the pictures floating around out there... OMG! Nasty! This stuff at least keeps your mouth occupied, been chewimg on it for 2 days straight and it does help.
