im finally starting injections soon so i decided to quit nicotine in preparation but jesus christ its been hard. i really just dont buy anything now but if someone has a vape or pouch ill ask to indulge. i started in person school for the first time in a year last week and by the end of the day some kid gave me his vape that i ended up ripping all day cus i was stressed. i quit for like 2 months earlier this year but that was because i got sent to a residential treatment house so i had no access to it but now that i do again, especially at school and around friends, its been sooooo much harder. is it really that important that i quit if im starting e like how bad would it affect my transition because i dont wanna quit :(
kills ur gains
>>44801965awww does it really...
>>44802527only for oral e iirc
>>44802686hmm good to know, either way doing oral is gonna kill your transition unfortunately
>>44802745truth nuke>t. injectionchud after ~1 year of transdermal
>>44801961if nicotine affects your transition then I've been doing it wrong this whole time. good luck in quitting though, it will be hard but it's possible
>>44802745this isn't necessarily true. I was on enanthate injections for a few years and back on oral and I don't notice much difference
>>44802975well at that point your levels were prob good and could be sustained on oral, but starting on oral isnt sufficient
>>44802686thats what i mostly see people say but i cant really get a straight answer for whether or not it will actually lower the effects of injections.
>>44803060i smoke and used nicotine replacement products (patches and gum) and i don't think the injections didn't work
>>44802997I see this line a lot and I'm really just not sure it's trueI haven't seen any good medical evidence that it's the case, just the word of Powers
>>44801961been smoking maybe a quarter to half a pack a day for most of the 6 months i've been on injections and i'm definitely making not bad progress but i've heard it's pretty fucked. don't relapse though stay strong i believe in you
>>44804771thank u im gonna try my best
>>44804839<3i really need to stop too but idk how. too many of my friends smoke and are too willing to hand out puffs
>>44804873literallyyyy thats why i technically havent "quit" just dont buy own stuff its way too accessible. just my way of weening off i guess. u got this too tho i know it <3 what i know from last time i quit are cravings suck the first 3 weeks but if you make it past that and are actually occupied instead of rotting its much better, just gonna be harder when actually being around it again after quitting
