This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

It's not worth going back! I'm trying to quit, my advice to you don't think about the high. Think about how expensive it is, how gross it smells, how much time it takes from your day, how much easier it is to breathe. The high is fleeting, the damage to your body is permanent.

Yeah I know I know. I even can’t do it like medically I am not supposed to more than usual person.

I need some kind of substance that works like nicotine, is easy to obtain and has less or no health risks

Probably gotta go to psych at last but I procrastinate on that since years

I was thinking recently let’s go and enroll in a course to become air traffic controller but I need nicotine for that. To pass tests and to work

Thing is I can’t even take the nicotine pills technically because I am in thrombosis risk group.

If I was usual medically person I would just take nicotine pills and deem the eventual risks completely worth having actual ability to focus and work. Without nicotine my career life is depressing if it even exists

I underestimated how this vile habit helped me pass to the top university but to be honest when I was studying I smoked like a lot, more than I ate and started to feel so fucking terrible that I switched education to something easier that I already knew how to do
