i doctor i had the habbit of chewing pan and then i quit it completely after nearly 9 months i just started agin and it s again 15-days, i seriously want to quit it, i associated my habit with so many things which i find near and dear if i quit this this will happen....(good or bad), i promised on myself, and people close to me and god too...but again i pacify myself in giving excuses....i already spoiled my teeth and underwent treatment and i was so happy when i quit now i re-started and feel so guilty and i really want to kick it out from my life forever.....( i don t smoke or drink,and dosn t have any other habits...)
If you are having this habit since many years, then suddenly quitting it is not a good idea. It will hamper your mental peace & balance, you get depressed at times or become very restless. So first slowly try reducing the no. of pan you eat every day. For e.g. if you eat 3-4 pan per day then for a month make it 2, then next month make it 1, then after few months make it 1 alternative days, then later on cut down to 1 pan in 2 or 3 days. Like this slowly quitting the habit will help you for long term rather than suddenly quitting.
