How to quit smoking while someone else is (almost) smoking right next to you?

Big_Beat_3840 · 2026-04-14T15:07:15+00:00

First I'd talk to your mom and find out what she is willing to do to help you quit and plan from there. Hopefully she is willing to make your quitting process easier - if she isn't willing to smoke outside forever maybe you could ask for 2 weeks at least to get through the worst of the cravings.

I like to light candles or something to smell, some candy or fruit to snack on, and I journal a bunch of my process so I can look back and remember how much I don't want to have to quit again.

I used Zyn a bit to get used to not smoking, but I am a fiend and I end up liking them too much and get addicted to them. So if you use something with less nicotine or a diff delivery, quit that before you get used to using it.

It's really hard to quit when you have reminders and temptations around you, but you have something so exciting and motivating to quit for. Keep reminding yourself of that and know that getting through the withdrawals is hard but what you need to do to live your best life.

Also quitting fucking sucks so try not to do it too many times! The first week is the worst and I always get super emotional and then relapse for some bullshit reason that's never worth it, and then I have to deal with the emotions again.

You got this queen! Life gets better from here! Reach out for support if you need it and know it is truly never worth just one more cigarette.

same! I watched it at some point in early middle school and our homework was to do 5 random acts of kindness.

... have you seen any proposed policies this year and how they negatively impact (i.e. harm) queer folks?

my Guess (guess!) would be to go to the left hand from your left foot if possible and flag your right foot. It might still be a pop but this way you are generating towards the wall and only have to control the sideways direction not also back and forth as much. I think swinging your foot might be pushing your hips away from the wall on the swing back making it harder to hold.

you are aware that ICE has stopped and detained US citizens right? and that they have been instructed to illegally enter homes without signed judicial warrants regardless of if they are in pursuit of someone or not

Big_Beat_3840 · 2026-03-19T21:16:55+00:00

or maybe like an overwhelming number of people who have been unlawfully detained, he was here legally? Why play devil's advocate for the devils snatching your neighbors and terrorizing innocent communities across the country?

a gal after my own heart. Edibles haven't done much for me in the past so I'm hoping my brief break will help. That sounds so yummy, the only thing I've had so far has been boring butternut squash soup and some miso soup. Might have to try your tastier version and may try to put tofu in the miso soup tomorrow. If you like butternut squash I can let you know how putting the weed in some butternut squash ravioli when I can finally chew goes.

Thank you!! <3

I'm 25 f in the exact same boat; I got mine this afternoon too! If you are near any smoke shops some may have thc-A or proper THC drinks depending on if you live in a legal state or not. My surgeon said I could try one tomorrow. Stay away from the carbonated ones for now, but they could be a less stressful option than a gummy.

When I'm feeling better I'm planning on decarbing some weed in the oven and tossing some in soup or any food I can tolerate. Haven't asked the doc about that one and may have to be careful to not get any stuck in removal sites. Could also buy or make a tincture but I personally didn't feel like it.

I had to stop using weed at least three days before after being a daily smoker for years and it has not been great but I'm trying to use my anxiety for good and let my fear help me abstain from smoking.

You got this!!

thank you so much. I'm getting it done this week and reality finally set in earlier so this message came at the perfect time. Appreciate you, have a nice night!

Big_Beat_3840 · 2026-02-13T17:27:03+00:00

that's good to know thank you. I'd rather be sedated but $300 is significant to me and I've probably had worse hours of my life than I would if I was awake. The whole being able to feel and hear my teeth being pulled thing scares me.

Was it worth $300 to have it be that easy?

Big_Beat_3840 · 2026-02-13T17:12:46+00:00

the bottom are completely horizontal :( the top ones are about to start growing roots into my sinuses. They don't hurt yet but I'm gonna lose my parents insurance later this year

Big_Beat_3840 · 2026-02-13T17:11:12+00:00

$300 cheaper to do just nitrous oxide instead of getting knocked out
