dunno lol
t. 7 years hrt still smoking
Drink coffee, get something to do with your hands and mouth absentmindedly while going about your day
I'm on those shitty 50 mg disposables. Worried about my health long term plus keep giving myself nic poisoning.
Smoke weed instead
I took vacation for two weeks and went on a bicycle tour lmao. It definitely helped to be distracted and out of my daily life, so there weren’t so many situations I associated with smoking
i used patches for 3 weeks and then mostly just willpowered through the rest
replace it with a different, more benign addiction instead (I replaced mine with energy drinks for a while, and now I'm replacing that with coffee)
vaping with nic free juice might help too, to get that kinda similar mouth stimulation
good luck user, it sucks ass but it is what it is, probably worth it in the end
t. ~2-3 months nic free after smoking for years and years
>shitty 50 mg disposables
i've been rolling the same shit for 20 years soon lol
i tried vaping but my nicotine intake increased by 20x when i did that lol
>Drink coffee
nah lol since i got off my 1.5+ liters a day coffee habit a few years back i get really bad anxiety 2-3 hours after drinking coffee, plus lots of palpitations and such
>get something to do with your hands and mouth absentmindedly while going about your day
hot desu
too expensive :c
I don't know any ways to help you quit, but if you can't and end up smoking still, whatever you do do not take oral estrogen.
Smoking decreases the efficacy of sublingual e by something insane like 90%, do injections instead. Do injections in general honesty.
> i get really bad anxiety 2-3 hours after drinking coffee, plus lots of palpitations and such
Is that with or without combining it with smoking (another stimulant)?
Do it in moderation, maybe switch to decaf after the first cup (or before the first cup if you still get palpitations etc).
>replace your addiction with another addiction
>oh but do it in moderation
thanks for the advice!
Yes you fucking retard because coffee won’t make your HRT both (1) ineffective and (2) much more likely to give you a fucking DVT. In fact, coffee consumption is NEGATIVELY correlated with all-cause mortality, meaning coffee drinkers live longer even with other relevant factors accounted for pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
the issue is that i cant do moderation because it's addiction you clownface (:
Ugh then JUST do decaf I guess. It’s not an addiction if it’s just flavored water.
Anytime you want to snake a cig suck some dick instead
Have you tried drinking tea instead? It has less caffeine and I can drink huge amounts of it, while more than 2 cups of coffee will lead to me going literally insane
I would suggest that too but OP’s palette is probably currently too deadened by years of smoking to get anything out of the delicate nuances of tea. She needs something that will smack her in the mouth until her sense of taste starts coming back.
yeah over here I made it 2 days before cracking and begging one off my neighbour, then made it 1 more day before buying a pouch and now I'm here. Its so fucked my body literally felt like it de-aged 3-4 years by the end of day 2 of cold turkey but I still couldn't give it up. going to try again tomorrow.
I did that when stopping smoking and I think there are certain types of tea, that still work well for smokers. Stuff like Lapsang Souchong and very umami green tea actually tasted better for me, when I was having a limited sense of taste compared to today
Smoke meth instead
When I had cravings I used to buy a pack then throw it in the garbage bin outside. Learned real quick to stop cold turkey because packs were almost 20 dollars at the time.
Smoke cbd flower, it’s cheap, harsh, tastes like shit, but it can satisfy oral fixation and is mildly psychoactive.
I smoke one cbd cig and I don’t want to smoke anything for a while :p
The secret is to get a pipe and smoke pipe rabacco instead. You’ll smoke a lot less and get a nicotine high more often
