This is the video that helped me mentally come to terms with the fact that if I'm gonna be craving nicotine whether I quit or not, I might as well quit.
I smoked for 16 years. It got to the point where I would be smoking a cigarette and just planning for the one after that one. "maybe 30 minutes I'll have another." or "after this, I'm going to have dinner then I can have another one after that". It was mind boggling the torture I was putting myself through. I bought that book and had it on my table for about 6 months until I had my "fuck this, I'm quitting" moment and I sad down and read it while listening to an audiobook copy. Over the course of 3 days, I finished the book and had my last cigarette in May 2018.
Thank you so much for sharing this with everyone!!!! Freeing yourself from those thoughts is crucial it’s legit freedom from something, such a good feeling
@@AddictionMindset Thank you, but unfortunately, I switched to vaping weed I'm here for my own personal demons I'm still facing. I was at the point where I was hitting 3 vape pens at a time to get the same "lung hurt" that cigarettes gave me. Sensation seeking at its finest. It's gone down but I still dab weed and I still have addiction problems to deal with. These videos are giving me the courage to look at my THC intake for what it is, an emotional crutch
What about the harvard study in 2015 which showed it wasn't nicotine alone that was addictive but the pyrazines added to it that create the addiction 🤷🏼♂️ same way tobacco alone doesn't cause all the illnesses but the additives that are put into it
Nicotine addiction for me is like having a headache all the time. You either have a headache from nicotine withdrawals or a headache from taking in nicotine. It's damned in you do, damned if you don't. Maybe in the moment, taking that initial hit of nicotine feels great, but when the other side effects start taking place, it makes you feel like garbage and somehow the nicotine tricks you into thinking the nicotine is the cure for these ailments it's giving you. It's literally like being gaslighted every second of every day. It is so genuinely unpleasant to be addicted to nicotine, I struggle to understand why more people aren't quitting.
I would say that's the best way of putting a nicotine addiction: you're being gaslighted into thinking the thing that's causing all these problems is the solution to it every second of every day.
Hey sir i am 19 i have been watching your videos for about a month or two now, i want to thank you for getting me to look at everything thing im doing and turn my life around.🤙🏼
Thankyou Dr. Frank!! great video! it explained what I felt yesterday after 4.5 days without cigarettes when I had a slip up... woke up today feeling the cravings but didn't touch any cigarettes. Felt all what Jacob said and man.. I wish all of us to feel free from that BS. The cravings are easier when the mind is set on quitting.
Anytime! Your withdrawals should be peeking somewhere right around now or a few days prior. Just keep busy and keep focused on quitting after you get for the first three days, I always recommend aiming for the two week mark.
He just uploaded a vid talking about how cigs aren't a waste of money. Been there - addiction is a roller coaster of justifications. I gotta say he's very entertaining and honest about it.
I am going to do a series reacting to his videos. I really like him as a creator, he is super honest, speaks his mind, cares about his subs, he’s legit
I was a chain smoker for 44 years. I have been cigarette free for a year and 2 weeks. I needed a cigarette 1 after another. Everything Jacob is saying is true for me. I have found much help in keeping journals and daily intentions. Your videos are very helpful. It is hard to see Jacob smoking a year later.
I’ve never smoked a cigarette 🚬 in my life , I’m 50 years old. My feeling whole , is being with my children , seeing them smile. Or going for a nice swim in a swimming pool or lake & then a nice Sauna. I really feel sorry for people that are addicted to this disgusting habit. God bless , PS I’m from 🇬🇧
Been watching Jacob thru my quitting journey. It’s weird, I thought watching him smoke would make me want to, but it actually satisfies my desire to smoke. I’m smoking vicariously thru Jacob ykwis
I understand perfectly, I'm about 4 months without nicotine and some days is so hard when I get stressed. I dream constantly I'm smoking and drinking my coffee after a hard day, it's like I took away a good part of my life but I will be strong and keep without nicotine, i watch your videos to stay motivated, thank you from Brazil !
It’s smoking that would take away the good parts of life. Unfortunately many people don’t realize that until it’s far too late. It’s what we have to keep in mind.
@@AddictionMindset I've always been interested in these topics,smoking and vaping and always has liked doing research on these topics and learn about what they do to people's health
I just realized this video was for me. I used to be a sales person selling floors. And I tried to quit smoking years ago during this. and I quickly went right back to smoking because I totally could not do my job without cigarettes. I couldn't sell anything is ridiculous now when I'm thinking about it because I have my own business cleaning now. I guess I just worked past not having cigarettes. I've only been four months but I have no intention of ever going back Thanks for all you do doctor frank
The amount of times I've been working with non-nic addicts during a stressful time and I'll light up/vape hit and they'll say "I wish I had something to take the stress off." And the look on their face when I'd say "I inhale this crap to get up to your everyday normal, not to get more relaxed than you." The look is that of pure perplexity.
Thank you for commenting on Jacob's video. You speak fondly of him, but to be honest, after checking his page I must say his content is targeted towards weak young people that are addicted and will continue being addicted because he seems to offer no leadership like yourself towards a smoke free lifestyle. Probably because he is still young and doesnt yet feel the full effect of smoking for decades. It will come. And if he is honest, his content will change drastically over the years.
I'm in the process of quitting. On the topic of the money spent, I have a story for those who want to read. I bought a mod that cost $75. After about a month of having it, it broke. I bought another one the next day without a second thought. Thats $150 right there that I gave away without a second thought besides the headrush I would get from the nicotine. Add in the cost of the juice and coils, thats a lot of money spent for something I thought was an important purchase. This is my third time trying to quit the habit, but I'm serious about it this time. I dont feel like I'm losing something this time. I feel like I'm gaining my life back. Completely different feeling this time from my previous tries at quitting.
Idk, I tried to quit my 12-15 Marlboro Reds a day with Zyn, gum, patches, but there is something about smoking a cig that just feels right & good! I want to stop, but it feels so boring without having the freedom to just smoke a cig! Maybe ignorance? Ignorance is bliss? On a side note Zyn or any other Nicotine replacement makes me feel Nervous, cigs make me feel a bit dizzy then Sharp!
Oh my gosh totally. To whom it may apply, within our community, I used Lobelia tincture every few hours to help get thru the first 72 hours. It hits the nicotine receptors but downregulates it! A healing herb for addicts
I knew I was seriously addicted to vaping when I had no money and went 8 hours without one and a Co worker went out for a cigarette and I asked for one, despite me not touching and hating cigarettes for a year and only vaping. I'd never smoke a cigarette when I had a vape. But the moment I didn't have it I craved cigarettes so so bad which was such a strange experience to have when I had hated the smell, smoke and taste for so long, just completely thrown out the window when experiencing withdrawal.
I've made it 8 days nicotine free after smoking for 20 years. The hardest part is how restless my muscles feel. I feel like I have to constantly flex my abs or I start to feel like I'm going to scream. I don't understand that symptom at all.
30 mintues away from the 72 hour mark. I'm miserable tbh. It wasn't my choice to quit, doctors orders. I had a meltdown in the first 24 hours and started punching walls and throwing shit. These past 3 days have felt like a million years and I'm ready for it to end. Being forced to quit just feels so damn unfair. suffering through this withdrawal is hell. I hate existing without nicotine. Life feels meaningless
I vaped for 10 years, 6 weeks clean right now... I never had any negative health effects besides post nasal drip from the minor inflammation that the vapor caused. I used my own cotton and coils and I bought the same juice for years... maybe the Juul and disposables are gnarly or something
Ummm I would say very similar.. both stim addictions both socially acceptable of course I think nicotine has less benefits and of course comes in more harmful methods of delivery
companies make their products as addictive as possible, cigs, vapes. The lungs are the quickest delivery method. Caffeine has a longer half life so a person won’t feel any withdraw for a lot longer. Usually next day by the afternoon
Like you alluded to, I think a lot of Jacob's lack of desire to quit nicotine (despite acknowledging it and being self aware) is his age. He's young and healthy, so smoking hasn't caught up to him yet- him quitting is not properly incentivized
I smoke 10 cigarettes a day.I started to smoke less of each cigarette.Next I m going to move down to 9,then 8 and so on.When I get down to 3 or 4,maybe I will quit buying them,and dischi the whole thing all together.Even if this could take 60 to 90 days,I m in no rush. I am 62,smoking since 16,half a pack a day average.Wish me luck!!
I quit over a year and a half ago. Because I wanted to and because I was having breathing issues. Unfortunately the breathing issues only have either gotten worse or at least never gone away! Super randomly I have this insane attack where it feels like my air ways are almost completely closed , or maybe there's some serious thick stuff in my lungs . Idk I've gone to the e.r. a million times for it and I can't even begin to explain how sickening it is how I get no help in this issue. I mean ive had seasonal asthma growing up and I know what those asthma attacks feel like and this isn't that. Any ideas ?
The supplement NAC really helps the lungs and clears up the mucus. I think that’s one near the end that allowed me to smoke without feeling I was harming myself. Didn’t even have the slightest cough. Talk to your doctor though before taking supplements
I'm at the point where I'm watching these videos with a cigarette in my mouth. Worst thing is I want to quit, try, miss it too much (because I'm an addict) and buy some ciggies. I genuinely enjoy it, which makes it even harder. Willpower is key. Think I'll buy some of those nicotine mint things, and try the weaning method.
Wow interesting stuff Doc. The algorithm recommended me some of his videos a while back. As long as he's happy but in some of his videos you can see how much of a nervous, anxious wreck he is. You can also see from looking at his skinny face, neck & pale complexion how much it's affected his health over 18 months. There was also this stoner chick who's videos were recommended and she's slurring her words looking an absolute mess and it provides great motivation to stay sober 😎😎😎😎😎
@@AddictionMindset yes Doc its jayblazedd. She apparently has a medical condition for her weed use but you can see all the signs of addiction. Bong hits in the morning, wonders why she cant eat anything until thc is in her system, poor diet habits and eating a 1st proper meal at 11pm or something stupid. It's actually a shame to see an attractive young woman literally destroying herself. She also slams edibles like haribo and reinforces the stereotype of stoners having dumb, slow sloth like behaviour. There is a video where she makes ice cream and the last 10 mins of it she absolutely frickin fried Doc.
@@Johanna12345 🤣🤣🤣ikr and she has the nerve to say "youtube flagged my videos". Damn right she's obviously influencing people especially in that 14-18 year group. Takes a hit of her bong then starts jiggling her shoulders dancing all happy cuz she got to hit the pipe. 🤣🤣🤣Would be interesting to see her one day without her drugs I bet she would lose her $hit.🤔🤔🤔 Classic addict
@@jagz6794 my exact thoughts. she's doing nothing all day but somehow feels like she's doing it. weird illusion. I feel bad for her if she keeps on this way for years. She's young and dumb. I would be very scared if I was her mother. brain fog till brain dead.
Frank I really want to quit vaping read allen carr and understand the mindset shift that im giving something up I need to change but no matter how ready i feel or hard I try in the end it feels like I always relapse
You know it may be taboo to say, But although nicotine is addictive, And in the case of smoking also putting you at an elevated risk of death by several factors, Theres one thing many people don't like to grant. Everyone has a vice, Whether it be food/snacks which when indulged upon can make for weight gain, increased risk of heart attack and other health complications, video games which can consume a lot of time and money, dry eye and eye fatigue, Irregular sleep patterns etc, energy drinks/sodas both of which can get you hooked on caffeine which people seem to forget is an addictive drug too, the acidity and high sugar content means that in excess you run the risk of rotting teeth, gum disease, or worse, Drinking alcohol which although super culturally accepted and common is literal liver poison that in excess WILL kill you or leave you crippled, and it doesn't even take long. The amount of things we do that have risks seems insane until you ask one simple question... Why do we do things we know are risky? It's because it's fun, it's because people want to see what life has to offer and sometimes that means trading some safety for some fun, the reality being some would rather live an eventful life even if its shorter than a safer life. That's why we smoke/chew/vape nicotine, It's because it's more than us all being some poor kid who got tricked into trying it and then got addicted, There are also those that heard the risks, and decided to do it anyways by choice, and continue to do it because they enjoy it, and nicotine is only one part of why these activities are fun. Sure it's addictive, many things are, and that can be a problem, but if it's the right one for you, then I don't see the issue. But if you think it's ruining your life, then please quit for your own improved quality of life, and if you were coerced into it? This isn't to say keep doing it, Thats something you have to decide, if you wish to quit please do. In the end it's all about how someone weighs the pro's and con's of something, If you don't want to smoke or chew or vape then don't, if you do, do want you want.
Thc addiction is not a physical dependency, you might experience some physical symptoms of withdrawals such as sweating but that doesn’t mean that it’s a physical dependence.
Nicotine is not the problem, smoking is. I actually love nicotine, and have never formed an addiction to it. I often go weeks without, and I suppose I miss it, but I manage just fine without it. I do enjoy it when I have it though. Swedish nicotine pouches are a great way to use it, refreshing minty tingle and discrete. I find it works fantastically as a nootropic or little 'pick me up' when I am feeling tired.
i need to talk about why he says, you know what I'm saying and ill be honest over and over again who the fuck legitimately talks like this, it seems like a character, a guy who is doing all the things he thinks guys who are cool would do
Addicted to nicotine? Why is this video promoting the idea of nicotine addiction. Look deep past the propaganda and discover it’s really not addictive. Maybe you are addicted to additives like pyrazines. Pyrazines may help to optimise nicotine delivery and dosing, and promote addiction through cueing, learned behaviour and/or direct effects.

@@Johanna12345 🤣🤣🤣ikr and she has the nerve to say "youtube flagged my videos". Damn right she's obviously influencing people especially in that 14-18 year group. Takes a hit of her bong then starts jiggling her shoulders dancing all happy cuz she got to hit the pipe. 🤣🤣🤣Would be interesting to see her one day without her drugs I bet she would lose her $hit.🤔🤔🤔
Classic addict
@@jagz6794 my exact thoughts. she's doing nothing all day but somehow feels like she's doing it. weird illusion. I feel bad for her if she keeps on this way for years. She's young and dumb. I would be very scared if I was her mother. brain fog till brain dead.
Who’s the guy you’re reacting to? I wanna check his vids out
You know what I’m sayin?
Hahah
@@AddictionMindset I have a translate to English button under your comment. Hahaha
Frank I really want to quit vaping read allen carr and understand the mindset shift that im giving something up I need to change but no matter how ready i feel or hard I try in the end it feels like I always relapse
plz stop using my boy as an example 😭😭😭😭
You know it may be taboo to say, But although nicotine is addictive, And in the case of smoking also putting you at an elevated risk of death by several factors, Theres one thing many people don't like to grant. Everyone has a vice, Whether it be food/snacks which when indulged upon can make for weight gain, increased risk of heart attack and other health complications, video games which can consume a lot of time and money, dry eye and eye fatigue, Irregular sleep patterns etc, energy drinks/sodas both of which can get you hooked on caffeine which people seem to forget is an addictive drug too, the acidity and high sugar content means that in excess you run the risk of rotting teeth, gum disease, or worse, Drinking alcohol which although super culturally accepted and common is literal liver poison that in excess WILL kill you or leave you crippled, and it doesn't even take long. The amount of things we do that have risks seems insane until you ask one simple question... Why do we do things we know are risky? It's because it's fun, it's because people want to see what life has to offer and sometimes that means trading some safety for some fun, the reality being some would rather live an eventful life even if its shorter than a safer life. That's why we smoke/chew/vape nicotine, It's because it's more than us all being some poor kid who got tricked into trying it and then got addicted, There are also those that heard the risks, and decided to do it anyways by choice, and continue to do it because they enjoy it, and nicotine is only one part of why these activities are fun. Sure it's addictive, many things are, and that can be a problem, but if it's the right one for you, then I don't see the issue. But if you think it's ruining your life, then please quit for your own improved quality of life, and if you were coerced into it? This isn't to say keep doing it, Thats something you have to decide, if you wish to quit please do. In the end it's all about how someone weighs the pro's and con's of something, If you don't want to smoke or chew or vape then don't, if you do, do want you want.
You know what he’s saying? You know what he’s saying? You know what he’s saying?
I know what your saying
I feel like there is some hate in this video
Cool video, know what I'm sayin.
I know what your saying! 😆
day 5 on soberness of nic
How ya holding up!
I really like cigarettes so I smoke casually cuz I wanna do it longer 🚬✌️
Very hard to watch him smoking after a year.
"You know what I'm sayin" :DDD How many more times?
snus and vape is the best way to quit. You get to experience nicotine without the carbon monoxide and radioactive tar, a lot healthier
This is how Kratom was for me.
Yeah, I know what you are saying.
Lol " you know what I'm saying "
No worries i know exactly wjat your saying brotha :D
Addiction feels like starving
Thc addiction is not a physical dependency, you might experience some physical symptoms of withdrawals such as sweating but that doesn’t mean that it’s a physical dependence.
Negative videos or addiction videos should not be using minecraft music
Nicotine is not the problem, smoking is. I actually love nicotine, and have never formed an addiction to it. I often go weeks without, and I suppose I miss it, but I manage just fine without it. I do enjoy it when I have it though. Swedish nicotine pouches are a great way to use it, refreshing minty tingle and discrete. I find it works fantastically as a nootropic or little 'pick me up' when I am feeling tired.
Keep telling yourself these lies.
@@SwazersC Not lies
I like dr frank better
Thanks West!!
i need to talk about why he says, you know what I'm saying and ill be honest over and over again who the fuck legitimately talks like this, it seems like a character, a guy who is doing all the things he thinks guys who are cool would do

I love Jacob fuckin jones so much
ya i used to watch him
Know what I’m sayin??
Knowah sayin’? Knowhah mean?
Dude…you pausing his video to talk every 10 seconds is annoying. Just let the video finish, then comment at the end.

I’m 14 and addicted (don’t judge)... I’m depressed already but when I run out of cigarettes or my vape It makes me feel worse😑
Holy fuc Man U young bro 😭 I mean I can’t judge I used to be smoking weed at 15

His mouth is huge
I think quitting, feels like a dumb rule you have to follow
No offense, but this is one of your more annoying videos gushing over this guy’s content
nicotine ain shit
Smoking stinks
Addicted to nicotine? Why is this video promoting the idea of nicotine addiction. Look deep past the propaganda and discover it’s really not addictive. Maybe you are addicted to additives like pyrazines. Pyrazines may help to optimise nicotine delivery and dosing, and promote addiction through cueing, learned behaviour and/or direct effects.
yapper
Bro this guy is just after him, I already saw couple pf reaction videos of him
Beo get a life you are worried about something which NATIVE AMERICANS DID FOR 12000 YEARS
