Nicotine addiction

I used to smoke years ago but I quit using nicotine gum. I've been chewing that stuff for like 10-12 years now though

One of the hardest addictions to quit. Where nicotine binds to the GABA receptors in your brain makes it more addictive than heroine, good luck….

Yep. Go Cold turkey. It sucks. Go for long run/ walk when the cravings hit.

Quit dipping cold turkey with 0 issues for 2 years. Decided to grab me a can on a fishing trip. Had one dip, it sat in my truck for weeks. Thought I finally broke the habit.

Went right back to it. About a year later I found zyn, the tobbaco free nicotine pouches. I pretty much live with one in my mouth. Bought a can of dip, hated it. Haven't had one since.

Strange thing is, if I forget to put a zyn in I will go hours without noticing. It's definitely all mental now.

I was lucking and was able to quit 6/14/78 I believe. I watched buddy go from cigs
to vapes, he vaped all day, didn't seem right.

I quit cold turkey. It sucks.

After day 3 the nicotine is out of your system.

But the battle is far from over. I had dip dreams for years. My mouth still waters just thinking about it now.

But after 6 years I don't much think about it anymore. Literally life changing not planning my day around my next dip.

I smoked cigarettes for over thirty years. I finally gave them up a little over a year ago on October 1, 2020. This may have been the hardest thing that I have ever done, but the benefits are worth the pain.

You must be ready and determined.

I’ve got a pinch of some Copenhagen in right now. Been dipping for 19 years now. I actually quit in early 2029 but covid made me start back up

I quit dipping 8 years ago and I could go back to a can a day right now like I never stopped.

For me every day has been like the day after I quit, hasn't gotten a bit easier.
