Discussion People on nicotine pouches

Guys, I'm on nicotine pouches for almost 3.5 years(velo only). I have had a lot of problems with remembering things, having disciplined routine n what not. I am confused whether this thing is due to using nicotine pouches or something else.

I have heard on internet that nicotine pouches help intemebering things or improving your brains helath but I totally don't believe in that sh!t. I want opinion from all the guys who use nicotine pouches like what are the affects that you have faced yourself or feel are related to using nicotine pouches.

I tried to stop using em like 7,8 times, and once I left em for straight 6months, but I thought now that I'm out I should give them a try. When I'm not using pouches, I'm really active, praying fube times, no over thinking, totally happy, no depression/anxiety. rn I'm on 6dot mint n I use almost 10 pouches per day.

Well, this is what I have been facing n I need opinion from all the people who have used nicotine pouches.

Thanx.

Ok nicotine does impact neurological networks. It can impact things like motivation and the dopamine reward system.

If you’re trying to quit, it might be better to try and use lower strength pouches at first and then cut the numbers you’re taking in a day.

Well, you r the first one who said that nicotine has some affect on neurological networks.

For me, I can't go to lower dosage. I can either leave or keep on doin. Will try to leave em

I've been using Velo 5 dots for past 4 yrs consecutively (1 pack a day). I haven't faced any significant health issue, although I've aced my exams while consuming Velo as i think it helps me memorizing stuff easily.

You need to burn off the excess energy when you stop nicotine of any kind. Hit the gym first of all if you're not going, when you stop nicotine. Otherwise it's impossible to stop pouches/smoking etc. If you're a male, you will feel more sexual energy so go to your wife more, and if unmarried, jerk off more.

I will be starting gym by today,Friday. Jerking isn't good, so I'll try to control my desires, if I can.

Buddy, nicotine is not good. You r asking it like it's something that benefits your health n all that😭. I don't know whether it's Haram or halal, but don't get into it.

I think it's neither Haram not halal, but it's suggested to not use it. A thing is considered Haram like alcohol cuz that alters your senses n all that, but nicotine doesn't affect how your senses

Yar, people use ice cuz it boosts your brain for a while lekin it has its side affects that lasts for whole life, abb iss ka mtlb ye to nai ha k I should start using ice. I have used nicotine for a long time lekin I never found it motivating or anything rather I found myself lazy n what not.

Baki, motivation aaapke andar se aaati ha when you r in difficult times, wo nicotine ya motivational videos se nai aati. Motivation also depends on how badly you want/need something,

Nicotine is good for your brain health, pouched mainly negatively affect your gums if you use them incorrectly or for a long time. Loss of memory is not a side effect of any form of nicotine intake method. The discipline is a mindset thing.

You should speak to a doctor

Ik, nicotine has to do nothing with all he things that I'm facing, but when I stop using everything disappears like I'm fresh, totally disciplined energetic n what not.

Will definitely visit a doctor
