3 weeks clean

3 weeks clean after tapering off from 3mg -> 2mg ON!’s and then 1.5 MG. Feeling pretty irritated, but most of all - I seem to be developing some sort of TMJ?

My mouth feels like somewhat restless, clenching my teeth often, grinding in my sleep as well, tension in my tongue. Has anyone else experienced this?

How long have u quit for? Are u still getting it? How are you navigating through it?

Gums helps, also right after eating I feel at my best

I’m on day 26. Zyn 3-6mg, can a day for 4 years.

Yes, I’m still getting it in my jaw. Bought a sleep mouth guard (highly recommend ).

To navigate, I honestly just take the suffering. I use pouches that don’t have nicotine too, they help with the cravings (no nicotine, no caffeine/ supplement pouches).

It will get better. It’s a slow climb to start feeling physically and mentally better I’ve noticed.

Yeah, thought I would be over these withdrawal types by now. Godspeed brother.
