Been smoking way less, but still smoking. Funny, buying a pouch from Woolies is ~$100, buying a 20pk of Marlboro reds from my local tobacconist is $18.
Even more reason to quit: Marlboro is made in the USA lol
Ah! Smokers warning. Can't at my place -- body corp rules and a cunt neighbour who will report. So heads up.
I swear by the nicotine spray thingy
That shit gave me horrible acid reflux. Nicotinell patches were the bomb tho.
Caveat: i'm very good at recognising dream states. Which is good because they were wild on those things.
I tried the patches but no luck. Only caveat of the spray for me is that I get a headache if I use it too much.
Gave me reflux too! The patches interrupted my sleep too much, I had to take them off before bed
I thought you were meant to take them off for bed.
It depends on how well you tolerate it. There are 24h patches that are recommended because it reduces cravings in the morning/over night.
Ah, okay. I took mine off at night. Damn, just realised it was 13 years ago I quit.
