Hi everyone,

I have been around off and on reading for a couple years now, posted a few anon questions.
Today I am back and actually looking for info on cig tobacco but was hitting a wall with the search function so figured I may as well register.

Hope everyone is staying safe,

Lily
 
Thanks for the welcome. :)

I am still not able to use the search function. I just get the main page after entering my terms.
Do you know if this is a site issue or my account limitations or maybe I'm a moron and not doing it correctly?
 
also when i try to enter a quick reply it asks me if i want to leave the page like an alert, sometimes it works fine, sometimes it puts me in an edit window for the original post. also my post counter isnt going up yet ive posted like 5 or 6 times.
 
I recently moved states from where cigs were still 3 something a pack to a state where they are OMG ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
So I found a tobacco shop up the road where I bought some tobacco, some tubes and rented their machine and am journeying into the RYO/SYO world.

I have tried to quit more times than I can count, have used all the available meds/presciptions and cold turkey. Even tried praying and begging to God and more will power than I thought I had in me, so pleeaasseee no lectures.
I am going to see a doctor as soon as I get settled in because I strongly think I have some serious underlying psych disorder or something because I go from "perfectly fine" to crazy and suicidal in 48 hours after trying to quit-even with NRT such as gum. A couple smokes later and I'm back to normal.

I'm looking for information on tobacco and RYO stuff in general.
Whatever ya'll have here.

Many thanks,

Lily
 
I believe it.
I have read quite a bit on nicotine as an anti-depressant, appetite suppressant, blood sugar affects, etc etc.

Since switching to the RYO tobacco, I am definitely lacking some chems which could be God knows what they add to the manufactured cigs or could be just a big drop in nicotine levels as I am still fumbling a bit and not smoking nearly as much as I did before but I'm overall happy and satisfied with the products.
I did notice some tweaks and aches and head rushes the first couple days but I was a bit paranoid about smoking something I'm not familiar with.
I just don't really know jack about the tobacco's themselves.
I found a bunch of website pages saying it isn't less harmful than manufactured due to the tar content but those articles assumed it was non filtered and mine are filtered.
I would love some straight talk, unbiased, on what I'm smoking now compared to what I have been smoking. I don't know if this would be more or less addictive, what's in them or what the nic content is.
(The kind I bought was suppose to be comparable to ultra-lights.)
The tubes as of yet are not "fire compliance" changed either. I am not sure if my old one's had been mandatorily switched or not but that sounds pretty scary from what I have heard from some people who have smoked the new regulations.

Also, I bought the tobacco from the bag instead of the bin.
The cig filter kinda crinkles and it seems like I'm working pretty hard to drag.
Unsure if the tobacco is slightly too moist or if I rolled it too tight.
I used their machine which was suppose to do them about 1.2-1.3 and I know I got some around 1.4.
When I loosen it and shake it out a bit it is easier to smoke but the wrap around the filter is still crinkling a bit so suspecting moisture.
 
Your correct. I just googled "nicotine antipsychotic" and holy cow. It's used to treat schizophrenia and everything. Great.
 
When i switched to the RYO's i had to go through several tobaccos some to harsh some to much nicotine and the ultra's seemed to have a artificial taste to them after some research i went back to a mix of one full strength and a much milder.right now i'm on a program that starts with eliminalting the first cig in the morning and taking the smallest patch doc's give dropped my from 2 packs to 1/2 pack in 3 months . What ever works there sure is no magic bullit...M.
