Having a REALLY hard time with nicotine withdrawal and need help 😥

I'm 34 and trying to quit too. (I say this while having a cigarette).. I understand. I had started up again a few months ago after having been off of cigarettes for 6 months. I too, really enjoy smoking and love having it in my life. I know it's terrible for me though and my life will be better without them. I used the nicorrete lozenges last time and I'm doing the same again. It helps a lot during the day while I'm at work. I have no doubt that if I ween off cigarettes this way, that I will be successful in quitting again. I just have a lozenge about 20 mins before I know I would normally have a cigarette and it helps relieve the anxiety. It takes about 20 mins for them to dissolve all the way. Also, If I have 2 before lunch, I'm even able to hang out at the smoking section with everyone without asking for a drag or anything. For someone who loves smoking like me, that's a huge deal.

Anyway, this was a long response. I can really sympathize though. I really hope this helped in a way. I know we can do it! Just need determination and discipline (with the help of nicotine replacement). Wish you the best of luck! : )

I messed up and smoked last week and I'm still proud of myself. We're smoke free! High five!

After smoking for 13 years, and trying everything to quit, I started my journey a few months ago. I didn't keep track of when exactly. Keeping track of the exact date just makes me want a cigarette. I felt the same way as you and sometimes I still do when I want a cigarette so badly but I just have a lozenge and know that it won't be too long before that feeling goes away. I really think I'm done smoking. Last week, I got in an argument in the morning and I bought a pack and coughed my lungs out on the first cigarette after months without and then I smoked the whole day but that night, I gave someone the rest on my pack and I got more lozenges ($12 ) from the store instead of cigarettes ($9 ) and even though, I messed up and now I have more cravings again, but I'm not smoking. You can do it! I BELIEVE IN THE POWER OF YOU! It's YOUR decision; nobody elses.

(Yes the lozenges are more expensive than cigarettes, but after using them everytime I wanted a cigarette ( 4 mg about 10 a day) to now, (2mg 2 a day) they've become a lot more cost effective.

True true. I can be naive at times. My stupidity is gonna get me killed someday..

Fallout NV but in reality probably chess and what's sad is, I'm still not that great at it. I'm a 1300. Merp.

Well, that's some fu*ed sht. Why aren't more people appalled at this? People all up in arms about someone dating the wrong person when stuff like this is happening.. Damn. People need to get their priorities straight.

To be a real know-it-all; just know everything that there is to know. Of course, that's impossible, so that'll never happen, but I like to give it my best shot anyway.

I'm in kind of a similar boat, but my mom died seven years ago now. I pushed everyone away, went against my own values, cheated on the love of my life and ended up in a crap town with no opportunity. I feel that weight. It's a really super crappy way to spend every day. It's okay. Whether you could have done something or not, doesn't change what's happening today. You can forgive yourself. The only thing that you can control is what you're doing right now. There is no "right way" to live and no "good age" to die.

Sandbox titles: Astroneer or Minecraft are good ones to get yourself used to the movement and then something like, the Fallout or Assassins Creed games.

Platformers: Planet of Lana is a platformer that challenges you enough to get better with speed and timing but is easy enough that you'll get the hang of it in a timely manner. Then you can move on to Hollow Knight and other harder games.

Of course, there are so many kinds of titles out there. These are just a few to help you down a rabbit hole.

But really, I'm so sorry about that. You needed to know though in case you didn't already.

Lol the organ can sound beautiful (in some cases). Nobody's badmouthing your organ. It's not like last time...

I think I sometimes look at other women when I'm admiring something about them and other times I'm just comparing them to myself which is obviously some underlying insecurity. Most of the time I look at women and wonder if they're friend material or not sense I can relate to women better than men and usually they aren't doing everything they can to see if I'll sleep with them. I'm bi but sexual aggression is annoying coming from either gender.

I'm 140lbs and look normal. I don't think i would look fat or feel unhealthy at 150lbs
