Well another good bit of news, I'm fully over vaping (addiction talk).

Two days ago while my dad was in the hospital and it wasn’t looking good I walked down to the gas station and bought a disposable to cope.

I had been 5 months vape free and switched over to low-dose nic pouches for my fix.

Anyway puffing on this thing reminds me of how much I hate it. Disrupts my breathing, gives me headaches, and I can’t sleep right using it. Ditched it this morning and started popping pouches again. The worst part is how it disrupts my sleep and I have vivid nightmares, sleep is a big thing for me, I enjoy it and having it upended is not worth the hassle.

So if you vape and want to quit, like I said low dose nic pouches are a good alternative to still get your fix. Cheap too, my place runs a deal for on pouches 3 for $6, not bad.

A community which focusses on improving yourself. This can be in many different ways - from improving physical health or appearance, to improving mental health, creating better habits, overcoming addictions, etc.

While material circumstances beyond our control do govern much of our daily lives, people do have agency and choices to make, whether that is as “simple” as disciplining yourself to not doomscroll, to as complex as recreating yourself to have many different hobbies and habits.

This is not a place where all we do is talk about improving “productivity” (in a workplace context) and similar terms and harmful lifestyles like “grindset”. Self-improvement here is intended to make you a generally better and happier person, as well as a better communist, and any other roles you may have in your life.

Rules and guidelines:

Posts should be about self-improvement. This is obviously a wide category, and can range from advice, to finding resources, to self-posts about needing to improve in a certain area, or how you have improved, and many other things.

Use content warnings when discussing difficult subjects.

Do not make medical decisions solely because of a discussion you have had with any person here (e.g. whether to take or not take medications; diagnoses; etc.) as we do not vet people. All medical problems should be discussed with a real-life medical professional.

Do not post harmful advice here. If this is seen, then please report it and we shall remove it. If you are unsure about whether it’s precisely harmful advice or not but feel uneasy about it, please report it anyway.

Do not insult other users and their lifestyles or their habits (unless they ask, I suppose). This is a place for self-improvement. Critique and discussion about a course of action is encouraged over shit-flinging. Don’t talk down to people.
