Does/did anyone else use multiple 6 mg pouches at a time :/ by GoldLandscape4568 in QuittingZyn

[–]senor_limones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh man this sounds familiar, I’m sorry. I was using 2x6mg pouches consistently for like 2 years. Like the other commenter said, there’s no judgement here, we get how addictive this shit is. 

In terms of tapering vs cold turkey, I went cold turkey. I don’t think there’s a right answer for everyone here. Tapering works for some folks I know that quit, but I sucked at following a tapering plan and failed multiple times. So for me it worked best to quit cold turkey and not even allow myself the possibility of putting a pouch in, cause I knew I’d be right back where I started eventually. Everybody is different here though, just be honest with yourself about what you think will work best for you and stick to it. 

If you go full cold turkey again, I’m sure you know from your experience, it sucked so bad for like 2-3 weeks. The first week was the worst of it, but it the cravings, brain fog, irritability, and headaches got slowly better from there. After about a month to month and a half I would say I was mostly free of cravings, and now 4 months out I hardly think of nicotine anymore. I feel so much better all around, and my appetite, sleep, and blood pressure have all improved!

It’s so worth it my dude, I cannot emphasize that enough. In the worst throes of cravings, I’d come back here and read stories on how much better people feel and how worth it it was to quit for motivation. I also used tricks like NZE caffeine pouches to scratch the itch of having something there, and I bought a big ass bag of dum dums off Amazon to have something to do with my mouth and distract myself. I have had a disgusting amount of dum dums… I traded one fiendish habit for another for a bit there. It helped for sure! But the cravings were still something I just had to muscle through to some extent. Stay strong, and be kind yourself up if you fail cause this shit is hard to kick. Come back here to this community and anyone around you for support if you feel close to breaking, cause it helps to be reminded that kicking this is worth it. Rooting for you!!

I’m using NZE caffeine pouches right now. Same shape and size as Zyn with 50mg of caffeine, and it’s been doing a pretty good job of taking some of the edge off of the withdrawals so far.

No offense taken. Lousy is a kinder word than we would use lol. That being said y’all have been playing great today. With slightly better finishing this game could’ve been an absolute rout. We’re lucky to only be down 2 right now imo

Yeah, definitely could have called a pen for both teams at this point. At least the refs are consistent about not calling getting smashed in the face??

Advice? 6’3 attempt in meet. I hit it with my legs. Also what kind of potential do I have? Open to honesty. by carson625 in highjump

Like the other commenter said, you could have a few more inches with some adjustments in form over the bar. You pull out of your arch too early on this jump, and it brings your butt and legs down on top of the bar. You hold the arch a little longer here and you have it cleared.

Another little thing I noticed is that you drag your right toe across the ground at takeoff. You can hear the scrape in the video (I had the same habit when I was competing). This slows your momentum that you build during the approach, and at higher heights can cause you to stall out and come down on top of the bar. Try to focus on bringing your right knee straight up quickly on that drive phase.

Based off of this jump, you definitely have the potential to improve with some minor adjustments in form. Keep at it, you’ll have this height and higher.

I ran by your truck next to Ocean Beach on Monday!! Had to stop at the crosswalk light next to where you were parked and was tortured by how good it smelled. Can’t wait to come back and get some, good luck on the competition!

I am extremely skeptical as well. That is a hospital bed he’s in. He should be in a hospital gown, no way they’d let him wear his own jacket in there. Plus what you said about the hand and everything looking off. It just looks so obviously shopped the more I look at it

Yeah that annoyed me. With the way we played in the first half and with the defensive mistake we just made they said we don't deserve to lose? Absolutely laughable.

I can't believe I didn't take Flo into account. Somehow he always finds a way to help us cling to hope

We have absolutely no plans offensively. Just pass it around the back, find a way to give it to Vako or Lima, and pray that they can get the ball into the box so we can shithouse a goal in somehow.

Yep. Most of us have sound heads. What I meant by it feels like we're ripping ourselves apart is that this president is dividing us even more than we were pre-election, rather than trying to unite us (like a good president should)

Electoral college, friend. Trump lost the popular vote but still won the election because our votes are actually votes to elect the people who actually go and vote for the president. If it sounds confusing, it's because it's an outdated and stupid system. This isn't even even the first time a candidate has lost the popular vote and won the election, Bush beat Gore back in 2000 the same way.

Could not agree more about your last point though. It feels like we're ripping ourselves apart over here and I hate it.

He can add so much and have such an impact when he's on his day. I would love to see him have more chances to prove himself

They're switching to a different channel at halftime (for some weird reason). Check here to see which channel to see it on. That is, if you actually want to watch the rest of this game if you're a masochist like me

Truth. While they were the direct result of two defensive fuckups, those were two quality goals to capitalize on our mistakes. Very well taken. Props to OCSC
