The smokeless tobacco addiction is every bit as dangerous and devastating as an addiction to cigarettes – possibly even more so. In fact, many believe that it is even more insidious. Chewing has been glamourized by sports professionals. Many people who dip smokeless started as early as nine years of age! And by the time that many of these kids turn 18, they are overcome by mouth and throat cancer, and may be dying.
There is nothing quite as ugly as a face ravaged by tumors or cancer, except maybe how the victim’s face looks after having surgery to amputate the jawbone, lips, or tongue. Unfortunately, in most cases the surgical massacre of the victim’s face really doesn’t matter, because they are dead within a year anyway.
Doctors tell us that the physical part of the Nicotine addiction is broken after abstaining for seven days. However, the psychological addiction is much stronger and takes a lot more time and effort to overcome making it difficult to quit smokeless tobacco.
There are three separate elements contained in the addiction to tobacco. Two of the components are mental, and one part is physical.
When you were a baby and you started crying, your mother would put a nipple into your mouth to calm you down. You would get distracted, become calm, and often fall asleep.
That scenario was repeated thousands of times so that your unconscious mind was programmed: When something goes into your mouth, you get relaxation and pleasure from it.
Now that you are fully-grown, if you feel tense or anxious, you crave something in your mouth for relaxation and pleasure – chewing tobacco!
Remember Pavlov? He rang a bell every time that he fed his dogs. After a few repetitions, all he had to do was to ring the bell, and that would make the dogs salivate.
When you connect together dipping with any other activity, the other activity will trigger cravings for chewing tobacco and a feeling of urgency to dip smokeless tobacco. This is called a conditioned response.
For example: If you dip smokeless tobacco when you drive your car, you will automatically get an urge to dip smokeless tobacco each time you drive your car.
Here is exactly how this conditioned response gets programmed into your subconscious: If a person dips smokeless and simultaneously drives a car, the mind takes a snapshot of the chew in the hand, and links it to the image of the steering wheel, dashboard, or view out the windshield, etc.. Thereafter, every time the person drives the car, her subconscious fills in the missing part of the picture. It flashes an image of the dip in the hand coming towards the mouth, and the dipper gets a craving for smokeless.
You may be unaware of the mental picture of the smokeless, because it may only be at the subconscious level of mind. Just as you are unaware of what you are seeing through your peripheral vision until something draws your attention to it. But the image is there, creating a craving for smokeless tobacco.
I’ve worked face-to-face with several thousand people who are addicted to tobacco and I give you my personal guarantee that the physical addiction to tobacco is the weakest part of the smokeless habit. In fact, I believe that it is only ten percent of the habit. The strongest parts of the addiction are the mental and emotional parts! (Parts A and B).
Part A is where people dip smokeless for relaxation and pleasure. It’s a person’s thoughts that create stress. Moreover, people invariably play mental movies in their mind’s eye. If the movie is negative, it manufactures a feeling of tension.
We can use different NLP and Hypnosis methods to re-program the subconscious mind to easily take those anxiety creating mental pictures and movies, and quickly exchange them for relaxation producing mental pictures and movies. This instills relaxation and pleasure, and eliminates the anxiety that creates the oral compulsions and cravings for chewing.
Because of the elimination of feelings of anxiety, the person who is quitting does not feel the compulsion or need to substitute food in place of the chewing tobacco. So quitting without weight gain is possible.
Breaking the addiction to smokeless tobacco is very similar to overcoming the addiction to food, cigarettes, and nail biting. I have many additional original articles on these topics in my free hypnosis & NLP article repository.
Part B is where people dip because chewing smokeless tobacco becomes a conditioned response to many different activities and locations. Remember in the earlier example how smoking became unconsciously associated with other activities and environments so that each time you get into that activity or environment, the mind flashes an image of smokeless tobacco in your hand, and the image of the smokeless tobacco in your hand causes an urge to chew tobacco?
There are effective and powerful hypnosis and NLP technologies that can quickly eliminate those conditioned responses so that a person’s unconscious mind will lose the cravings for smokeless, and the compulsion to chew smokeless. As a matter of fact, you can even get a compulsion to reject chewing.
