what kind of dependancy do you think smoking has?
a physical one?, or a psychological one?
(and if both, which would be superior?)
the solution is simple, the theory always is....but putting it into action is the real battle.you say the "thought" of your mouth causes excessive salivation. if that is true...and make sure it is...it would be logical to assume it is a psychological trigger that can be removed.
i would look for ways of destracting thoughts of my mouth by over-stimulating other regions (preferably in the face) who knows maybe even take up smoking (no, don't start smoking, it actually aids salivation...).
otherwise the only advice that i can give you, which is 100% sure to work....is to start a habit of smoking marijuana...that will surely solve your saliva problem. may cause new ones tho :)
