ngl it's hard to argue against that

GRATS!!!
I don't have an answer sadly, but I can at least offer a hell yeah

ALSO FOR THE RECORD: I'm not angry at all, I hope it doesn't come off like that. I just have personal experience I wanted to share

also sorryyyyyy I haven't spoken to you in ages and the first thing talk about in forever is an infodump lmao

not gonna lie, if it weren't for me transitioning, I wouldn't have quit. nicotine reduces the efficacy of oral estrogen, and both estrogen and nicotine increase your chances of having bloodclots. many endocrinologists strongly recommend people either quit, or go with e patches or injections instead

I know that's vaping and not smoking, but still I know what nic addiction is like. we know the risks, we just take them to calm our minds (from wanting the nic), and because we don't *immediately* see the health outcome

I can fathom it bc I vaped between 18 and 27 💀 part of it is not realizing a problem until its too late, and part of it is how fucked it is to quit. in about 1 month I'll have been nic free for 2 years and I still get pretty rough cravings from time to time-- basically whenever I think about it lmao

YEAHHHHHH LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOO
