So. I made a smoking thread a while back... and a couple months ago I decided to quit. So I moved from kingsized regulars, to standard lights. Then just a few days ago I though it'd be better for me to try and ween myself off of smoking and onto dip... and then quit dip. What do you guys think? I've been using dip 2 days now, and it does give me a fix... but there are a few downsides to smoking. First of all, it's pretty dirty... and I've heard stories of people getting cancer from just a few years (only 4 years in one case) from using it.

I've done a bit of research and the studies show various results. Some say it is very safe, especially compared to smoking... while others say it's as bad as smoking or worse. You'd think that in the short term (a few months, maybe a year) that dip would be a good alternative to smoking... and to help quit. But I don't really know, and that's why I'm making this thread.

So what do you folks think? And I don't need people judging and being condescending... I know it's bad, and I'm looking for help.

Thanks.
