Buddy of mine caught covid before there was a vaccine. He was on a ventilator for 40 days, had to go to rehab for 8 months after that, and had to relearn how to walk. Had to have a tracheostomy to breathe, which he still has. Has been back in the hospital no less than 15 times, still cant hardly walk. Spent from Christmas eve, until Jan 10th in the hospital. Cant smell, or taste anything.
To say hes fucked up, is an understatement.

I got the 21mg patches cause I planned quiting. Then when I woke up one morning I said fuck it and put a patch on.

Then whenever I felt like I wanted a cig, I smoked a bowl.

I also decided to drink more beer, lol.

Switched to the 14 mg after the box of 21 mg, but only took them for a couple days. And no more nicotine for me.

It was a little hard at first, but gets easier pretty quick. The hard part is staying strong at the beginning.

You can do it. Or sorry, you're friend can do it, :lol:

Congrats!!

I quit using the patch too, about 8+ years ago and have not had one since.

I was being cheap the first few tries, and trying to jump right off the 21 mg patches...Nope, not happening, but when I did it the correct way, weaning down yo 14 mg and then 7 mg, it was very doable. My doctor commended me on that today and I said it's the best thing I did for myself in a very long time!

I quit "smoking" weed a few years ago now too, and only vape now...or dab. My lungs no longer wheeze when I lay down!!

Nice. Congrats to you too. I wish I would have quit sooner, but later is better than never. I pretty much only vape too. I found the SSV vape like 10 years ago and have 4 in this house now. My lungs thank me too.

A lot of the regular posters on this thread are actually pretty cool. T&T threads, particularly this one, aren’t generally where to go if you want to engage in full throated debates about COVID-19 severity and vaccination opinions though.
If you have a thick skin and want to mix it up, try the Pandemic 2020 or the Will You Take the Vaccine threads in the Politics section. Folks aren’t as chill there but if you like throwing virtual rocks at virtual hornets nests, that’s where to do it.
