Dropping it without weening yourself off
@Sparky Trying to quit absolutely right away
Yeah. Smokers usually try to quit by moving to Nicotene patches, and then reducing the Nicotine dose slightly over time until they don't need Nicotene at all anymore. j
Also, scare tactics work well also. If push comes to shoves, do a hail mary and completely break yourself. By this I mean masturbate to something so god awful that you would never find joy in doing it again.
Going cold turkey would just be ceasing Nicotene intake suddenly and permanently.
I feel like a disgrace to be admitting this here.
@Sparky You could try mindfulness meditation? It often helps externalize your addictions/desires
I had a friend who was in your shoes, I reccommended he do the deed to some disgusting ass content and he quit the day after and couldn't shake the feeling for a while. Now he only does itwhen he truly feels like it.
A core buddhist mantra is "The root of suffering is desire."
Yeah, I agree with that quote as well.
It's almost universally true.
If only you could separate your conscience from those debilitating desires... that is enlightenment.

YE
Desires are healthy, in my opinion. If you don't live to strive for something more than what you have then what are you doing? That wouldn't get us anywhere if we all were complacent in what we already have.
How come a person such as myself who didn't use a phone turned and would do purposeful actions, then turned into a piece of shit after he started using it often?
This is also true, you have to desire something better than your current situation... you're not living life otherwise
Is it my hormones of which every male soon received?
Dude, I don't know if am either finding something else to place the fault at or if I actually have a reason for saying those stuff.
dude don't be sorry.
But, there is a reason why your desire is so intense- you've got be honest with yourself.
only then can you move on.
Or at least make progress...
I hate when people like my family or teachers blantently lie to me in front of my face to make me feel better.
Good. Because I value the truth
Due to how I look people treat me differently.
mmm
Sorry back in General. Had to get married
I don't hate them for being that type of way but rather I hate those who tell me lies to confort me and those who mock me because my appearance and because(I think) he wants to make himself happy within his own broken heart, of which his familars caused because they want him to be something that they want rather than support what he wants to be.
Sorry man your pronouns and sudden change of context make this confusing.
What I'm getting from that is that people lie because they pity you, and your fam reinforces this by never changing the way they treat you?
Regardless of what you do?
IDK
Hey Hey party people
hey bitch
Basically my family treats me nicely so I feel content but in reality my actual life seems as though nothing is moving.
@Sparky Sorry man there may have been a bit of projection in that interpretation
@Sparky But yeah, I can relate. There's nothing I hate more than not going anywhere in life.
Which means that they don't really care about me. They just want to live happy ever after.
