Absolutely no reason for me to keep taking nicotine anymore. All it gives me is a mild buzz for a few minutes while slowly wrecking my body. My gums burn, my stomach is constantly messed up, and I’ve started feeling lethargic and sick almost all the time. I’d end up taking several Zyns at once because I have a really addictive personality and every time I felt stressed or anxious, nicotine became the automatic response.

It started affecting literally everything. Sleep got worse because I’d take them late at night. I barely eat anymore. I move around less. My whole day started revolving around when I could throw in another pouch. At some point I realized this shit had basically taken over my life for something that barely even feels good anymore.

I’ve also tried quitting several times before and my dumb ass always ends up buying either cigs or Zyns again. Usually it happens when I go out with friends and someone has one, then I get tempted and end up buying my own. Same cycle every single time. I keep repeating the same mistake.

But this time I genuinely want to quit for good. I know I’ve said that before too, but man, I can’t keep living like this anymore.

Now I’m on day 3-4 without nicotine. Withdrawal sucks. I’m irritated constantly, get pissed off way too easily, and I can’t concentrate for shit right now. But honestly, even with all that, I already know continuing would feel worse long term.

Just posting this to hold myself accountable and remind myself why I’m quitting.

I swear Brawlhalla has some of the most infuriating gameplay I’ve experienced in a fighting game.

Every match feels less about actual skill and more about who can spam the same move over and over without getting punished. Half the lobby just abuses sigs, passive play is rewarded way too much, and somehow the hitboxes still feel weird after all this time. I’ll dodge something cleanly and still get clipped like the game already decided I was getting hit.

The ranked experience is miserable too. Either you queue into someone way above your level, a smurf, or someone playing like their family is being held hostage if they lose. There’s barely any middle ground between “easy win” and “least enjoyable 6 minutes of your life.”

And don’t even get me started on input delay online. Some matches feel smooth, then the next game feels like you’re fighting underwater. For a game that’s been out this long, it’s crazy that basic online consistency still feels random.

The worst part is the game could be amazing. The movement is fun, the concept is good, and some weapons genuinely feel satisfying. But the constant spam, floaty combat, passive players, and matchmaking make it exhausting to play for more than an hour.

Maybe I’m just burned out, but lately playing this game feels more irritating than fun.

Whenever I play 2v2 the first game doesn’t lag. But the rematches lag the whole game basically. Anyone else with this problem?

Have you guys also looked at someone’s profile while playing them and see what moves they’re most likely to make?
