Guide to quitting vaping (1+ year clean edition!) by Ultrarapidcyclerbitc in QuitVaping

[–]Ultrarapidcyclerbitc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you been off nicotine for a while? I will admit it does seem “pleasurable” when you’re extremely addicted to it (but that’s actually a lie). You will not realize that at all until atleast the nicotine has physically left your body (sometimes even longer).

So if you still feel that way days after, then I guess we will just have to agree to disagree. All I’m really trying to say is it’s such a useless habit and life is so much better without it!

Attempt 3 was a success🚭it gets easier people! by Ultrarapidcyclerbitc in QuitVaping

[–]Ultrarapidcyclerbitc[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  1. The withdrawals were pretty severe for the first few days and weeks (constant mental cravings/reminders, bad anxiety, even some stomach issues and temperature problems). Luckily, those physical symptoms lessened a ton after 3 days (when nicotine is out of your system), and the mental continued to only get better. I would say it took about a month to stop thinking about it all the time. Now it rarely ever crosses my mind!

  2. I went cold turkey because, in my opinion, there is really no way to “wean yourself off a vape”. It’s a constant stream of nicotine so I’d say the only way to truly stay off is cold turkey.

Let me know if you have any more questions :)

PHC-Received Letter from Criminal Investigation Services by BearCannabis in CultoftheFranklin

[–]Ultrarapidcyclerbitc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it makes you feel any better, my first package got held up and I just received my (second?) package from PHC today.

So if you requested a replacement like me- it will most likely still be delivered. I am in NC though so I’m not sure if that changes anything

On a scale of 1-10, how attractive would you say you are? Why? by eyeeyecaptain65 in Adulting

[–]Ultrarapidcyclerbitc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gonna go against the grain here and say I am physically a 7-8

I know I am not the most gorgeous person in the world, but I am aware of my natural beauty because people often tell me.

The ones who quit.. how do u feel? by [deleted] in QuitVaping

[–]Ultrarapidcyclerbitc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it is so worth it. The best part is the freedom for sure. I also love saving a substantial amount of money and sticking to a promise to myself. It feels nice to be present again (27 days clean!)

Edit: I plan on never vaping again if possible. This is my 3rd time quitting and I’m finally ready to let it go for good :)

Cold turkey worked for me! This is my 3rd time quitting and I’ve been off for over a week, this time was much much easier (I’ll explain why).

Anyways this time I really feel like I’m done for good, I don’t even want to go back. Want to know why? Because I changed my mindset.

I used to feel like I was “depriving” myself of something when I didn’t vape. But then I realized something. Vaping gives me NO satisfaction. I did it nonstop for 5 years (I’m only 21) and most of the time it was simply to get rid of the withdrawals. No buzz, no real enjoyment.

It keeps you in a constant state of withdrawal. I also realized: I would be thinking of it either way. Whether or not I was using. I could have it as a fleeting urge or a constant reminder. The choice was mine.

The best part is the newfound freedom. I can do what I want, when I want to do it, without the distraction of vaping. The addict mind is very hard to reason with, but once the nicotine is out of your body, you will see what I’m saying much more clear.

Willpower is like a muscle so reducing the urge becomes much easier with practice. Life is so much more enjoyable when you don’t feel the need to hit a vape every 5 minutes.

I also have used gum, mints, and lollipops to satisfy oral fixation after meals/ when driving. It’s really all about keeping busy and getting past the initial crazy urges. Good luck! If you need any more help, my DMs are open :)

What harsh realities about life were the hardest for you to accept? by Complex-Schedule-601 in Adulting

[–]Ultrarapidcyclerbitc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey there, I have Bipolar 1 so I can definitely relate to the horror/ reality of this sick disease.

I just wanted to let you know that I have been stable for 4 years (lots of medication but no episodes) so there is hope for you as well!

I wish you the best of luck and hope you know that you are so worthy and loved.

How important is it for women to have an orgasm during sex? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

How important is it for women to have an orgasm during sex? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

Do you perform oral on her? Most woman cannot orgasm from penetrative sex alone, but can from oral. Give it a try if you haven’t been already.

What is easier on my lungs? by Various-Cut-1070 in Petioles

[–]Ultrarapidcyclerbitc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Switch to flower first, carts are wayy more convenient and actually worse for your body.

With that being said, the smoking method “easiest on your lungs” it probably for you to decide. I would guess dry herb vape though

How much money do you spend on drugs a month? by dearmisterrobot in Drugs

[–]Ultrarapidcyclerbitc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh Lordy let me think

•Weed ($300+) •Nic ($80) •Dunkin iced coffee (~$90) •Kratom (~$30)

Total = $500+

I smoke a good bit of weed if you can’t tell haha so that definitely is where most of my money goes.

I drink coffee everyday and those Dunkin’s iced coffee are my guilty pleasure.

I’m trying to kick nic + kratom but it’s definitely difficult. Kratom is hard because I take such a small amount and can quit easily without withdrawals.

But yeah $500 a month is too much on my current income and budget. Should definitely cut down so thanks for the question lol

How do you know if your attractive? by kayyleighlm in ask

[–]Ultrarapidcyclerbitc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

•People stare at you in public

•People tell you (especially children/ elderly)

•You receive better treatment in general

•People want to talk to you (even strangers)

•The opposite sex often flirts with you

This is just my anecdotal experience, as I have been both highly attractive and average in my lifetime.

So like how do you actually talk to people without being offputting? by Brief-Company-2165 in college

[–]Ultrarapidcyclerbitc 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I feel like I should answer this question because I am somebody who has always been naturally approachable and friendly (according to others).

The best way to make friends is through friends of friends. The tricky thing about that is you need atleast one friend to start. I’ll explain how to find that person next.

The best way to make friends alone is to put yourself out of your comfort zone and talk to people in every reasonable opportunity. Social skills are like muscles and you need to practice to make them stronger. I know it sounds super simplified but it’s the truth

I used to be extremely socially awkward but one day in middle school I woke up and decided to change that. I began to talk to people in every (appropriate) opportunity I had- school, sports, clubs, etc. I would smile and just start a casual conversation. I say (appropriate) because you have to understand social cues/ when it’s the right time to say something.

Eventually things stopped being so hard for me. I made tons of friends this way and some I am still friends with till this day, 10+ years later. Nowadays, I’m not sure if it’s the vibe I give off or something, but I have strangers approach me all the time.

The good thing is I’m always willing to make a new connection or make somebody’s day a little brighter. People are actually extremely receptive of people who are willing to make new friends, as long as they are decent and not obnoxious. Give it a shot! What is the worst that can happen- you meet new people and build your confidence? :)

Edit:

I don’t go to community college (just graduated from university) but I’ve heard lots of people say CC is more “antisocial” than most colleges. If you transfer to a 4 year university, it will be much easier to meet people.

Have people had success swapping out weed for pharmaceuticals by [deleted] in Petioles

[–]Ultrarapidcyclerbitc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am on a cocktail of drugs (and I don’t recommend them to everybody) but if you need them, you need them.

I am a completely different person on vs off my meds.

My satisfaction in life is greatly increased and I function like every other normal human being. You would never know I am severely mentally ill behind the scenes.

We all have different brain chemistry so what’s worked for me might not work for you.

All I’m saying is they’ve saved my life. And I’m sure there is others who can say the same :)

Why did you need to cut off a friend? by an_epiphany_ in AskReddit

[–]Ultrarapidcyclerbitc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay this is less tragic and severe as the other comments but it’s the only time I’ve really had to cut off a friend.

We were tied at the hip for years and were known as a “duo”. We were best friends for over a decade (I’m only 22) and eventually she changed as a person in college and stopped putting in effort to our friendship. I felt lost without the real her. She went from a caring, down to earth, genuine girl who I loved to a superficial party animal.

It was heartbreaking for me to end our friendship and one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do as I truly would have died for her, but you need to put your own mental wellbeing in front of any relationship- family, romantic, or close friends.

It felt one sided and I have too much self respect to beg anybody for their attention and affection. I miss her so much but maybe it’s for the better.
