First it was pipes, then cigars, then cigarettes, then vaping, now it's snuff. You dipshits just don't stop falling for the nicotine meme
Nicotine is a great drug. It's stimulating and relaxing and increases choline so you have more focus and easily enter flowstate. It also prevents the breakdown of testosterone and has a net anti-inflammatory effect. The reason that it is difficult to quit is because it has no immediate negative effects, only positives. The negatives is arterial hardening and elevated blood pressure. Other than that it is actually neuroprotective and helps prevent alzheimers and dimentia.
kek what the frick is wrong with people, just quit buying them moron. you know when you are in the store and you see ice cream and whatever slop and looks really enticing then you say nah, if I have it in the house then I'll be tempted to eat it, so you put it down and carry on with your shopping. why are people lacking this basic ability? literally the most important thing to develop in yourself.
Quit cigs, never tried those, but I vape. Probably a lot safer than smoking
>quit cigs
>starts vaping
truly big brain
Less harmful, more tasty
Just as moronic
NTA, but while vaping isn't good for anyone, it's significantly less bad than smoking cigarettes. Reducing harm is better than nothing. And if he is smart about it he can taper off vaping and quit entirely.
Nothing is better than some harm, doofus. Just quit.
You know what I meant, stop being deliberately obtuse.
I have a few friends who managed to quit smoking but none of them has managed to quit these yet
on the other hand the fact that you can vape indoors might lead you to vape much more than you used to smoke
>taper off vaping
This is such an addict cope. Just quit, there is no tapering off, you just decide to not do it one day and then stick to it. It's that simple.
it is much easier to taper off when your lungs aren't burnt to shit
in the end this is the best way to actually stop an addiction to nicotine. just finish up your pack of cigs/vape cartridge/can of zyns and then when you're craving more in a few hours and you pass by a store that sells them, just exert enough willpower for 5 minutes to tell yourself "no I don't need that shit" and walk past it without buying anything. It gets easier to resist those cravings over time but it's literally just the first 24-48 hours and then you're over it.
nicotine withdrawal is really overrated tbh, it's just that the short spontaneous cravings keep on coming back for months after you quit
bump
Try replacing with these, you can order online or buy them at good nutrition. You probably are mainly addicted to the act of it
QRD? You just hold them in your mouth or are you supposed to use them as regular toothpicks?
She's suggesting them as an alternative to zyns what do you think
You hold them in your mouth and enjoy the tingle. Move it from side to side etc
>She
My pronouns are they/them
Those are gross. Get the cinnamon ones
lmao.
get urself a proper snus
Whats this 3mg shit
It is good, why would you want to quit it.
I constantly had an 8 mg in my gums last year. Finally got fed up with them after I got super nauseous during a flight. I used nicotine patches to quit- 21 mg for a few days, 14 mg for a few days, etc. Been off of them for five months.
Lmaooo im trying to start them itried 2 times and got hiccups and basically felt like shit
>being a slave to nicotine/cigs
Lol, lmao
>not unlocking the true power of your brain

I've never been able to get addicted to these, I'll do them for a week or two and then just randomly completely forget about them
I smoke socially (~3 cigs over a weekend a few times a year) and am always waiting for the nicotine addiction to get me but it never does. The way my dad described it to me was like the very next day after trying a cig his body was like "hey dude where's the next hit". Maybe we are just built different.
I'm the same way anon, I think they lied to us.
>I think they lied to us.
I'm still really paranoid about other drugs and will never try cocaine or other hard stuff just to see how it is. Take being able to cold turkey nicotine as a fun fluke we have.
Cocaine is nothing. The comedown sucks so hard it just isn't worth even doing. The point of cocaine is drinking more. It prevents you from passing out. Just cocaine is like drinking a bunch of espresso with more pinpoint focus. Nicotine is the same way but to a lesser extent. People smoke when they drink to allow them to drink more aside from the slight nicotine rush.
>People smoke when they drink to allow them to drink more aside from the slight nicotine rush.
might be one of the most moronic things I've ever read
Well then you don't know anything about alcoholism. Coke heads combine it with alcohol. Almost nobody just does coke alone. Did you never wonder why your hangover is worse when you smoked when you drank? Protip: it's not because nicotine causes a hangover, it's because you drank more because the stimulant kept you from slowing down.
>Well then you don't know anything about alcoholism
oh frick you're right man
I'm not an alcoholic I don't know ANYTHING
I worked at a rehab as a bht for 2.5 years during college. I know quite a bit.
ah you spent 2.5 years in a position with no requirements babysitting drug addicts
I yield to superior knowledge
You sound angry and defensive. I think you might just enter a rehab in a few years.
I quit nicotine, weed, and, drinking and my only vice is caffeine
I think you're moronic and conflate babysitting junkies with understanding brain chemistry
So you are a dry alcoholic then lmao. If you could regulate you wouldn't have to "quit"
I went from drinking socially (a few times a month) to not drinking at all
cute try though, I'm sure if you keep pretending to be a real psychologist? counselor? whatever you're trying to be, it will work out for you
Alright angry boy
rather be angry than trying to flex babysitting drug addicts online lol
Ok
>le dry drunk
I was on your side in this comment thread until you said this gay AA 12 step bullshit
The AA 12 steps are based on jungian and christian spirituality. I look at that kind of thing as being like newtons laws. Do they perfectly explain physics and reality? No. Are they functional models? Yes. Whether god is real or not doesn't effect the personal benefit of believing in him. I'm a joseph campbell and jung reading hippie in a lot of ways. To me acceptance of god is just the acceptance of a personification of reality itself. The people who fight against reality/god are the utopian trannies who think they can fight reality itself. That's why they think they can chop their dicks off and be a woman or that they can force everybody to be actually equal in any way physically because life is le unfair. The argument against god/reality is always that god/reality is unfair because disease and famine or whatever. Forcing people to accept god is just forcing them to accept reality and come to terms with it.
does nicotine effect aging on skin? any article I read is about cigs
It increases testosterone which causes skin to thicken and changes the way it ages. See: steroid users.
I just did and it was rough. Started vaping and nicotine gum and weened off. been 3 days no nicotine and starting to feel chill
Please don't give yourself mouth cancer anon. I used chantix to quit a long running smoking addiction and 15 years later i still consider it the best $400 i ever spent
You don't get cancer from food grade nicotine. You get it from the hydrocarbons in tobacco.
plenty of people got mouth cancer from chewing tobacco back in a day
Again, that is not in nicotine pouches. It's food grade nicotine, some plant cellulose, and flavorings. It's other compounds in the tobacco that cause cancer. You swallow the spit from them, you don't spit it out.
Yeah. Something genetic I guess. I’m pretty bad with alcohol but I’ve done snus and zyns for extended periods of time and had zero problems stopping either time
Used to smoke cigs and pipe tobacco, really you just have to quit cold turkey and resist the cravings for a bit, it passes in a while.
Does that make you nauseated like vapes do?
>be me
>hell yeah let's try a vape
>18mg of nicotine
>get almost instant head rush (can't explain the feeling)
>feeling of fast heart beating
>extreme nausea for hours
Not bad for your fitness, but certainly bad for your gums and dental health
way easier to quit than the fricking chinese disposable vapes
Are nic gums a good way to quit smoking? Asking for a friend.
I used to use snus very often and tried zyn/On! a few times before I finally quit for good about 3.5 years ago. I gained weight after quitting but now I’m not spending beaucoup bux on nicotine and I don’t feel like throwing up every morning at work because I swallowed too much snus spit now. I guess it was worth doing. It sucked for like 3 months then it got pretty ez. I used to have to put two Siberia snus in to feel a buzz towards the end for reference
You were supposed to use nicotine no more than 4 days in a row then take 4 days off moron. Did you even take 2 weeks off after a month like you were supposed to?
Been off em for a week and no cravings past day 2. Just simply stop using them
