How Long Do Nicotine Withdrawals Last ? -
both myself and my wife want to know this. I recently quit -dip- or -snuff- tobacco, and she is going to stop smoking as well very soon.The nicotine withdrawl symptoms are typically bad for about 3 days. Whenever your body releases some fat that contains nicotine, you will get additional cravings (around 2 months).Using the patch or nicotine gum, can reduce the cravings immediately, but don-t help in the long run. A recent study showed that relapse rates are extremely high using these methods.
As you used dip, the nicotine concentration in your blood will be high, which means a greater desire to relapse. Try using herbal snuff (my preference is Hooch Snuff (

This will help with the physical cravings whilie you go through the chemical withdrawl.

I quit smoking (you never quit if you start back) for 12 years and the whole time i felt something missing. When you quit smoking you have to quit drinking aswell because nothing goes better with a beer. I found that I like to drink beer when I play golf and if I want to go out to a night club. It is way too easy to start again. I felt I was strong enough to have a smoke when I was drinking but no other time. but it will take over again.
So you quit smoking your whole life has to change with it. I have quit a few times over the last 5 years for months at a time and the wanting never goes away.
I did the wellbutrin and it made me so much -I could care less- that it ended my marrage. Because I could have cared less about much of anything. And treating it with a patch is really hard because each time you drop down the the next patch you go through the withdraws again. It is like quiting three times. may as well just quit and tough it out. That was how I quit for the 12 years.
Good luck it is very very hard to do.The nicotine is out of your system in about 3-5 days, but you never really get over that craving for a smoke. I work around smokers and sometimes, when they light up, it smells so good. About the third drag they take, and it smells like an old ashtray.
I too used Wellbutrin 10 years ago and it worked. This is my third time to stop smoking and it worked.Not long..
Get yourself some of those little plastic coffee stirrers an stick a few in you pocket...
Everytime you need a fix, chew on the little plastic stirrer...
Worked for me..
Stopped using them after a month or so...I tried several times to quit and the only thing that worked was a combo of the patch and the Welbutrin. (sp) I felt like I had never smoked. good luck - keep trying. Its been 4 years for me.I am in the process of quitting smoking (3 months on 9/9) - yikes, guess the urge never quite goes away or so I-m told. Anyway, the physical craving to smoke is out of your system within 3 days - yup, after that you can-t say -my body is craving it-; that would be your brain craving it, telling you to have one. It-s just habit and if you can do something else for just 60 small seconds, the urge for that time is gone and then the urges will come fewer and farther between. I-m sending positive thoughts your way - it-s so cool not to be bothered with where am I going to have a cigarette, let-s stop for a cigarette, wish I could smoke, oh, we can-t smoke here.... it-s absolutely fabulous, the best thing you will ever do for yourself. Go for it and good luck!!!
