Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

I’ve said it before elsewhere, go cold turkey. It gets the worst of the pain over with in under a week and the pain itself in a month.
I tried to go cold turkey multiple times and it got easier every time. It’s like hiking a path and having to stop because you got too tired. You know where the fatigue sets in and can plan accordingly.
3 days of hell are worth it. And tbh the first day isn’t that bad if you time your last dose right before bed on a day you can sleep in.
If the nicotine isn’t the main thing, smokes have more than that in there, you might be better served switching to an alternative product for a week or so and then going cold in order to stagger the withdrawals.
If I’m not at work, I’m online. On the off chance you ever want my input I’ll respond as soon as able.
I believe you got this, whichever route you take to being smoke free.
