Holy moly, just over 3 days:

Info:

  • Smoked for 8-9 years (1 pack/day)
  • Switched to Juul 8-9 months ago (1.5 pods/day)
  • Didn't smoke cigs during Juul era.
  • Have experience with quitting smokes, even the Carr method. No experience quitting vape.

What is it like to quit Juul?

I am currently over 72 hours without nicotine. To be honest, I have never been more addicted to smoking in my life than with a Juul device. I knew the quit would be inevitable, and I didn't realize how deeply Juul allows nicotine consumption to become engraved in everything you do. When you quit everything is a massive trigger. I practically would sleep-juul.

Physically, the withdrawal has been one of the m

I was talking to my republican friend about the investigation. He doesn't really believe it too much. He reads up on a lot of far right sources and listens to Rush daily. I managed to help him see some issues and contradictions he has about the topic, which was great, but ultimately the conversation ended at one talking point I couldn't speak for.

He mentioned it doesn't matter how much criminal activity may have happened because the investigation started without due process (he means FBI shouldn't have had access to information regarding collusion). It leads me to wonder a few things.

How did the investigation begin? Did the FBI overstep boundaries to begin it? What information can help m

Why do we worry about what happens in other subs like NoFap? They are not us and, unless our goal is to start controversy, we should focus on the topic: Recovery from porn addiction.

We are a very attractive sub for someone who is looking for solid sexual recovery and is looking for a wholesome place. Nofap consistently endorses us and people who don't get what they need from there can easily come here.

If we can keep our atmosphere receptive to those new members by focusing on our shared goals we can accomplish a lot more than whining about each other.

If we can do that our message won't be lost in the controversy. We can benefit the most people!

I have read and gone through so many one week quits with Allen Car's book. Usually my record is just a few hours without it, except for one stint that I went 3 years without smoking. As usual, I'm hoping this time is the one. That I have learned every lesson I can from quitting smoking applied the resources and tools from the book.

I have gone all afternoon without a craving. I generally don't crave very much. I feel a slight withdrawal, but nothing really fixes that issue so I will keep up with the quit.

Does anyone have any tips on keeping smoke free long term? Especially those of you who have quit using Allen Carr a few times.

I normally am a guy who doesn't get very anxious. I don't get worried about talking to new people or going to a new work place.

When I watch porn and masturbate this is a lot different. The first thing in the morning when I wake up, my chest is tight. I feel very squirrely the rest of the day. Talking to the opposite sex gets my heart racing and I fear eye contact. My mind is racing and I physically tighten my legs restlessly. I even sweat and get nauseated. I want to avoid social engagement as much as possible after a relapse, but force myself to go through.

Is there any research about this? Does anyone relate to the extent I do to these feelings? Would it be porn induced? Or is it from

I was wondering if it was just me. Is it because there are less ingredients to keep the cost low? Do you guys have some tips to richen the flavors?

I have tried a variety of recipes and follow each step. The most notable is the coconut curry. It seems like I could eat it anywhere else and the flavors are exploding.

Edit: Thank you guys for the insight! Makes a lot more sense, i'm pretty new to cooking

Hello!

I would like to recommend a very strong candidate running for TX Court of Criminal Appeals in this election cycle.

Robert Burns is a well respected judge in the Dallas area. He has experience working a very progressive program, DIVERT court, that helps people who have been charged with felony non-violent drug possession get back into the regular world. For Texas, this has been a major step forward in treating addiction as a disease and not just a criminal issue.

I live in the area and have seen the results of a great program work wonders for people. If we can continue this stride, Texas can

I've noticed a bug that only appears when I'm using the Reddit Mobile app. Occasionally, I'll post a comment to a thread and it will double post it. I don't retype or resend the comment. One thread posted a comment 8 times. Anyone else experiencing this?

Man, this week has been a tough one. Work has had me going from 9am to 2am for a few days and I'm working again tomorrow. I am a little over two weeks clean from PMO and really starting to feel withdrawals. I am craving hard, but just trying to do something productive instead. I feel foggy and tired and I don't feel like I can go on much longer.

But I realized that I should pay attention to myself. I have learned a simple tool for checking up on yourself when you're feeling bad. Its the acronym HALT: Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired. It helped me remember what I am feeling may be exasperated by my tiredness or my hunger.

I really wanted to look at porn all day because I just feel so bad. Now

Even when PMO puts a bullet in my head and takes me out of the war, I know damn well that it's not over between me and the enemy.

I can be beaten down, laid flat, and thrown to the ground, but nothing will ever stop my will to achieve greatness. This is more than war, this is life. When I get back up, I'll be that much more versed, feirce, and ready.
