I think nicotine withdrawal is a hoax. 

Nicotine is addictive, but I’ve never experienced negative symptoms from not feeding the craving.

Withdrawal is different for everyone I think! I guess we’re just lucky 😝

I think it’s addictive, but withdrawal is blown out of proportion. 

I’ve been a heavy user for years but have stopped (not quit) cold turkey for extended periods multiple times without any negative effects.

This happened to me too. I think it’s because our tolerance gets so tolerant that nicotine no longer affects our brain. I’ve never been addicted either but was a heavy heavy smoker before

Withdrawal, if any, probably comes in different forms. Usually there’s a bit of a delayed onset anyway. Have you tried stopping for weeks completely? For me the trigger was stress (and sometimes drinking), so no withdrawal until I encounter the triggers.

Im addicted- I love it (especially after a really satisfying meal)

The irritability, anxiousness, appetite change, restlessness, headaches, etc people report when they don’t have their fix- I’ve never experienced. I think I’d be considered a heavy user.

I didn’t get too much of a withdrawal, tho I admit it’s (the addiction) much more complex.
