The patch is on and now my arm is itchy. Maybe I'll put it on my leg next time where there's a bit more meat. Or my arse cheek ๐
You can do it! Cravings apparently subside after 15 mins.
Thanks mate. So far, so good ๐
You got this ๐ช I know it was mentioned the other day but just to reiterate, leaving it on overnight can cause extra dreaming, lighter sleep. I would always take mine off before I slept but then nice cravings would come back if I didn't fall asleep fast enough ๐ญ
I'll do that ๐
Sometimes I'd spank the patch a little during cravings, it'll increase blood flow to the area (more nic absorbed) and it gives you something to do with your hands. The itch is normal.
Is my arm meant to feel a bit funny like I've had an injection?
Yeah, they feel fucky.
This is a bit of a trip. There will be no exercise today. I will watch movies instead.
