How can I quit dipping?

I started dipping to quit smoking, and it has become a problem of its own. I dip a can of cope straight or original everyday or two. Nicotine replacement seems to do jack shit for me.
I've been considering buying a vape but never got around to buying a vape, though I'm seriously considering it at this point. Cancer really scares the fuck out of me and my jaws been feeling stiff a lot lately.
Anyone halp?

Dipping is like chewing tobacco that you dont chew. I went cold turkey for two weeks once but was craving a dip the entire time. I dont want to crave dip for the rest of my life lol.

Don't have any tips but my dad had like 1/3 of his jaw removed due to cancer mainly attributed to chew. He looks really fucked up now so if vaping helps its worth a try.

Yeah man fuck that. I dont want to lose my jaw. But cancer seems like such a distant thing that I always tell myself I'll quit after this log (5 can roll), but never actually do it...

I was thinking maybe nictoine patch+high mg vape. Then taper down over time.

If you are really serous about it then look into ibogaine? It has a reputation for helping people get over addiction

Yeah, I've definitely heard of it. I'd rather use every possible resource available to attempt to quit before I use it though.
Fuck man, I'm torn. I want to keep dipping, I really enjoy it. But in the back of my mind I know it will kill me. I would use ibogaine, but it seems hard to get and unsafe without proper supervision.
But I'm 100 percent promising myself tomorrow I'm gunna throw out my remaining 2 cans, go buy some patches, a new vape and move on with my life.

I find that chewing the 4mg gum helps.
I'm guilty of chewing and smoking tho.

Damn bro I was gonna say "how are You trying to quit smoking by smoking pcp " because dipping usually refers to dipping cigs into pcp to make a sherm stick

Thanks guys. I've already slipped up. Smoked some weed, completely forgot I was gunna quit, and threw in a lip. Fuck.
Im gunna do this though, I dont care how long it takes. I gotta quit. I guess it doesnt count because its not tommorow yet and I have no nicotine replacements yet.

How much time, effort and money are you willing to put into a vape?
They can easily knock you on your ass even if you have a super high nic tolerance I assure you
But you gotta get a good powerful one, the cheap ones are garbage
The powerful ones cost a good amount of money and require some practice to learn how to use, but IMO there is no better nicotine delivery device than a vaporizer once your lungs get used to the sensation

I'd say the most is like 200 hundred dollars. Im pretty serious about quitting. And as much effort as needed.
Im gunna go buy a cheap one at my local vape store tomorrow just for nicotine until my good vape arrives, because im gonna order a good vape with a box mod online tomorrow.
Ive vaped before but it was off my friends shitty vape with low nicotine

Alright well if you're willing to spend like 300 total I wrote up a comprehensive vape setup guide a while back
I'll :privatemessage: it to you cause it's really long but trust me spending a bit more and getting the full package would definitely be worth it for you in the long run
I know it costs a lot but really it's an investment, I'd say it costs me like >$5 a week to run my vape and I used to spend like $40 a week when I smoked cigs
