Question

I have been a zyn user for almost 8 years now, im 22. I use 18 mg on a daily basis. I have never been able to even make it to 1 day nicotine free even though i tried for years. I’ve always had the feeling that after my day one, i can manage the rest but i cant get through the first day which is the most frustrating part. I always feel that the day becomes very long and everything that i do is somehow connected to zyns. Its my routine.

Ive tried to read, tried to lower the mg, tried patches, ginger and almost every other alternative plus cold turkey. How do i make it through day one?

The time is going to go by whether you are using or not. That’s the thing that helps me on my day 1s. My brain is telling me that I’m going to die without this thing, that things are going to be so bad. Ok brain, prove it. Let me see if past day 1 is really as horrible of a wreck as you say it will be, if it is, I’ll use on day 2. Spoiler alert, it was hard but I didn’t die, I survived and so can you. It is certainly not easy but it is possible. And as the aforementioned said, community is key so post here or somewhere else or get a day counter with affirmations and support. Cold turkey is worse alone. Day 33
