Hiya, I was on nicotine gum for 20 years.
I’m using a variety of replacements: Spry Natural Green Tea Gum; pur gum (coolmint or bubblegum): mint Lifesavers, and the occasional Swedish Fish.

All without Aspartame and no added sugars. Obviously not the same, and I am more moody than usual, but am getting by the same way as with alcohol, and one day at a time :+1::kissing_heart:

Are you nicotine-free now? :thinking:

Thank for ur support! I was pretty positive in the days before the 90 mark (something to aim for?), feeling a bit bad after the 100 goal was hit. The dealing with emotions is difficult, but always better than having the mental effects of alcohol in the mix!

No unfortunately have got worse since being sober but hate it… initially did not want to put too much pressure on myself… but edging there as worried about damage especially now! Have bought a small vape and some losenges. Just got to place my day.
Will look up some of the products you mentioned thank you… see on here a few people doing both so good to get all your insight and motivation for me to stop.

Day 120! Today was VERY good! I finally heard back about my job interview, and turns out I got the job, so now I have a guaranteed job for when I graduate! I also posted about my recovery on my personal social media for the first time and got a lot of positively responses! Overall, pretty fantastic and I’m very excited about the future.

That’s so exciting. Forgive me if you’ve mentioned, but what have you been studying?

No worries! I’m doing political science and the job is with a politician in the state senate
