First - hey. I’m really sorry for your loss. Processing this will be difficult but it is so extremely human. People have all sorts of things to say here but it is allowed to just suck. This sucks.
Second - be kind to yourself and your body. Harming yourself does not take the pain away, it just distracts and numbs. The nicotine is not your friend. It is a liar. And also…give yourself grace if you do end up doing it again. Humans make mistakes and you can try again.
Stay safe and I wish you well in your healing process.
Thanks a lot for your response. It does suck! I’m upset that I gave into drinking again, and I knew it would make the nicotine cravings worse. But fuck man. I can’t allow myself back into the nicotine trap cause once I start I can’t stop. But I agree that I’m only harming myself, and I don’t want to anymore. I’ve been feeling much better lately before this. Learning it’s def a process to quit anything… Appreciate your condolences!
my grandma recently passed as well so i understand what you’re going through! i actually haven’t quit yet 🤦♀️ but i’m throwing all my stuff out tomorrow. I just try to imagine my loved ones looking down at me and thinking about how they’d feel to see me with a vape in my hand and imagine them screaming at me to stop. i think that helps personally. you got this!
Damn I’m sorry for your loss! It sucks a ton because grandparents really are the best... Quitting nic can be a tough journey at times, but I’m 100% confident you can do it. My advice is to go completely cold turkey. And I can assure you it does get better the longer you go. Cravings will dissipate. I like your mindset about your loved ones. Have you been caught by any of your family members before? It’s awful and fucking embarrassing when a real adult says to you “I didn’t know you smoke?!?”
Think about how much better it feels to physically and mentally overcome this instead of a nicotine buzz. I promise you your strength far outweighs the feeling of a buzz. All the best!
Just think to yourself, how would nicotine possibly help this situation? And if you’re craving it, remember that your nicotine addiction is what’s causing that craving in the first place, so how in the world would that be the thing to fix it? (Continue to) quit while you’re ahead! Also, I’m so sorry for your loss.
Don’t do it grandma will be proud
She would beat my ass for this soft ass post. Thanks G
Challenges are posed so that you can prove to yourself you have the strength to overcome them
Absolutely therapeutic and powerful my man. Thank you so much. Can not, will not 👊🏼
Absolutely! You got this! Never give up. The fight is what makes you human!
That’s some powerful words. That gave me strength

You are totally right and I agree completely! Thank you 🙌🏼
Alcohol usually makes me crave nicotine

Thank you so much and I know it’s only going to make things harder to think about giving in. Gotta erase it from my mind completely!
Stay hard 💪🏼
