AHHHHHH I am going to stab someone....

[Handthatfeeds242]

Well this is my first few days(since sunday) without smoking a cig in years. I woke up this morning puffed away on PV (36mg nic) and it was not cutting it. I was ready to just stop on the way in to grab a pack and be done with it. Got to work and was just ready to grab a plastic knife and run around and stab people in the face, surely this would have made me feel better. I decided for my wellbeing as far as keeping a job and not going to jail that would not be a good idea. Anyway I am sitting here going nuts trying to get past these withdrawls and it does suck. I have been jambing as much snuff up my nose as I can. It is helping take the edge off but not quite getting rid of the wanting to run around stabbing people in the face feeling. Anyway random banter, glad I found the snuff. Have a feeling its going to be very integral in stopping the cigs.

I am pretty sure stabbing is against ECF rulz, LOL

 

[Handthatfeeds242]

LOL I guess it would be advisable to not go on a stabbing spree then. After vaping while smoking still for a year and a half I thought it would be easier.

 

[whiskey]

Some folks feel like you do...I have heard of using Both to quell the urges..theres a wonderfull thread about using both E-cig & snuff in Emerald city subforum...you should go meet some of the people over there that have experiance in this...Wiz is the one who formed the subforum.
Some great peeps over there!!!

 

[Handthatfeeds242]

thanks whiskey, I will look into that.

 

[Rosco]

I would probably tweak up my nic and see if that helped.

I still have a analog little cigar when I wake up then vape the rest of the day. It is probably like a security blanket more than actual need, but I have given up worrying about it.
One smoke a day is no biggie.

For some reason Miss Whiskey's avatars cause me to totally lose my train of thought, odd ain't it?

Well I am already vaping 36mg soooooo not sure I wanna go much higher....lol

Yeah one a day is not bad, just trying to kick them. Just like anything else though I guess I'll have to fight through the withdrawals.

Lol yeah they always are good for a nice distraction

 

[hittman]

Felt, that sounds like a perfectly normal reaction to me. My favorite is the crawling in my own skin feeling where no matter what I do or use, it doesn't calm me. All I can say is that it does get better over time. I don't remember what snuffs you have but I would keep the strongest one you can find on hand for the mornings. Maybe an American scotch snuff would do the trick. The molens macuba seems to do a good job of killing cravings for me. Just hang in there. It always helped/helps me to come on the forum and discuss things like that. Feel free to come and talk things out. We are usually a pretty good listeners here.

My 2 cents. I was right where you are dude. I was a 2 to 3 pad guy. Lean on that PV like a crutch. It was absolutely welded to my face for the most part of a month. So vape heavily! And good luck to you. You'll get there.

 

[Handthatfeeds242]

Thanks for all the support....Helps a lot. Ive got snuff on the back of one hand and a pv in the other.

Uh..... what were we talking about again?
Oh yeah, "feltsideoutstl" hang in there, it gets better.

 

[Stubby]

I never got much out of nasal snuff. I've got a drawer full of it that I haven't touched in over a year. It was kind of a pleasant diversion but I could never depend on it for my needs. If you really want to kill the cravings Swedish snus is the best thing out there. The extra strong versions will grow hair where...... you really don't want hair..... but it does knock out that feeling that I want to stab someone in the face.

After vaping for as long as you have it may be time to admit it's just not working and move on to something with more substance.

+1
hang in there felt - pop a couple of snus now and then when it gets too bad to handle.

I just recently decided to quit smoking. I have been vaping so long because of convenience. I can sit at my desk at work and blow clouds of vapor without anyone bating an eye. The snuff seems to be cutting it though. Just seems like it's the morning that is the worst.

 

[hittman]

That's the worst time for me too.

 

[firechick]

Hang in feltside, pretty much everyone on this side of the tracks knows a little about it. I honestly believe my job (and in particular, some of the people there) could drive a nun to commit homicide. Doing it without nicotine and WTA's would NOT be an option.

 

[W Axl Rose]

Not an option for me either. I feel that snus is most likely safer than pharma drugs. Look at all the recalls out there and all the ads from law firms about class action suits with pharma drugs... Snus works and I have no intention of quitting it ever.

 

[ec!gg]

Just hang in there . It does take some time to get use to your PV.

Also heard the Snus works... but I never tried it.
