People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No bullying or international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.

I did the same except I just started chewing smaller and smaller pieces of nicotine gum until one day I was taking such tiny nibbles that I thought to myself, "this is stupid", spit it out, and that was that. Been nicotine-free for 8 years now.

Didn’t you get post-a-few-months cravings? Not physical but mental ones. I swear my brain manipulates me, one time I even took a piece of paper and started weighting the pros and cons AND “I” FOUND MORE PROS???

Unfortunately I can't relate. Never had any issues with feeling the need to have something in my mouth or in my hands. But that's probably cause I was smoking (and then eventually vaping) weed for a lot longer than I was a tobacco smoker. So I guess the cannabis takes care of the oral fixation. I basically replaced cigarettes and Juuls with joints and live resin pens.
