So, my buddy told me about Zyns. Mind you, I dont really do any sort of "drugs". Ive had weed 3 times in my life (im 24), rarely drink alcohol, and thats it.

She offers me to try a zyn. She gives me it and I put it in my lower lip. At first, it was ok. A little bit of a burn, no problem. I started to feel very hyper aware and like i had to be on gaurd. 10 minutes later, the shit really starts to hit the fan.

My walking felt off, start to feel sluggish, and my stomach started to feel like crap. I had to take a number 2 immediately for some reason. It probably made it worse that I had it on an empty stomach. I decided to spit it out maybe like 20 ish minutes I had it in at the time. Talking, all of that felt off and weird. I go back to see the package and it was 6mg for the strength. Its weird because I've had weed before that was 20mg and it didnt hit this hard. But this nicotine hit me like a dump truck and dont understand why. Not doing that anymore.

TL;DR: First time taking a zyn on an empty stomach and didnt know how strong it was. It resulted in me feeling like complete shit and still does unfortunately. Not doing that again lol.
