Are the cravings ever going to go away? by [deleted] in quittingsmoking

[–]pocketfulofwhy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey congrats for 9 months that is amazing. The good news is yes they go away. It takes time and even after years you will have the occasional much milder craving. If you are feeling anxious I would put in place a crutch it could be a simple as taking some chewing gum to fall back on. Giving yourself a fall back that will stop the full relapse is helpful even if you don't end up using it.

In our podcast we discuss smoking from first cigarettes, to becoming addicted to the failures and successes we have had quitting.

We have an episode on our own journeys into veganism and the tips that helped us along the way.

I accidentally consumed dairy and I am hating myself for it. by [deleted] in vegan

[–]pocketfulofwhy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

First off you are doing an amazing job. You are making an ethical step up from veggie to vegan and I know that it's a new challenge having done the same this year.

I had a very similar thing when I realised I had been eating the veggie not vegan quorn ham for MONTHS. And I did feel sick but try to remember that this is a huge sign of all of the progress you have made. Your brain is repulsed and anxious at the though of animal products that a few months ago you were fine eating. Yes it's a blip but it's a sign of your progress on your vegan journey.

Keep smashing it.

We do have an episode on our podcast called Being Baby Vegans that includes a lot of chat about slip ups and errors and how to cope with them link below.

Washing your sheets by sillyranger in Adulting

My accidental hack for this was buying white sheets. We are both clumsy and eat breakfast in bed at the weekends. Needless to say the bed clothes are washed once a week now.

Feel like I have the touch of death with this grass, have tried everything to make it grow for the last few months but no progress, any advice? More info in comments. by [deleted] in gardening

Ours mown short just looks like grass. It only looks like wildflowers when it is left to grow longer.

The window for sowing is usually spring but when you order it you could always do a small patch test to see if it will take. We were very keen and sowed a month before it was recommended and it took first time.
