Give and get support around quitting
I noticed there is not much here about Zyn pouches, so I wanted to make one to help others.
I am still addicted. Badly. I am up to over a can a day, and use two at a time.
Every time I have tried to go 3+ hours without them and am awake, I get a horrible dizziness, but this is not just any sort of dizziness.
This is like my body is disconnected from my actual mind. It feels like i shifted just slightly out of my skin, and it is frankly terrifying.
I have read of folks with this on reddit.
Zyn is different. It is a designer sort of nicotine, it goes through mucous membranes through your gumbs, and is loaded with sweetners and flavorings that typically do not get a chance to get fed directly to the blood stream.
The artificial sweetners. We have no way of knowing what is happening there, do we.
No one ever did a study on them when they are not consumed, broken down by the stomach. This goes through your gums directly into your blood stream.
I am so miserable all the time. This has been a many YEAR problem, and quitting is literally ALL I think about.
The problem is, I work using my mind. I negotiate high dollar sales deals, and you cannot just do this when i cannot even focus.
I am not sure what to do here, but zyn is often used for folks to stop smoking. I can appreciate all that stuff in the lungs is terrible, but i wager there are other things nicotine on its own does that no one ever mentions.
