    Can you go without sucking on a chemical teet for a few weeks?

    You have to want to quit enough to overcome the unpleasantness of quitting. And smoking isn't all bad.

    [Nicotine provides] protection against; (5) Parkinson's disease (6) Tourette's disease (7) Alzheimers disease, (8) ulcerative colitis and (9) sleep apnea https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1859921/

    Although what u/Hongkongphooey might want to do is get nicotine mints. All the goodness of nicotine, none of the risk of inhaling combusted plant material, or the testosterone reducing effects of vaping.

    Thanks dude, hadn't heard of the mints. I'm perfectly happy with my nicotine addiction, I'd just rather it didn't make me any more physically unwell than I already am. Nicotine is far preferable to something like Wellbutrin which id probably need instead, and a doctor could just take away from me if they were feeling disagreeable or I didn't feel like paying my regular extortion fee for refills

    It's more like a few months if you are talking about brain chemicals returning to normal levels, and no, I'm not terribly confident I would be successful

    You just have to be a tetchy arsehole and shout at everyone around for the smallest things.

    That's what my dad did when he successfully quit smoking anyway.

    I am gonna tell you something, and it's no big deal to me, but I do like to be nice when nice is appropriate, which is not often with me.

    Do you remember when I paid you a compliment and I said that you seemed so nice? And you commented that you get on people's nerves?

    I thought you were nice long before I saw your pic..

    You are only missing one thing..

    Believe me it isn't your cat eyes..

    You are not smiling

    That is my nice deed for the millennium.

    Pussy ass doctors. There are more old drunks and stoners than there are old doctors.
