I quit smoking & vaping.

1 edit

My 2 part plan worked.
1) Change to vaping
2) Quit vaping

Roughly $100 better a week.
I still get urges to supply my body with nicotine but hey I smoked 30 years.
I used a quit clinic and from there I could work out the decreasing factors and timeframe similar to quitting with patches or gum.

Edit: the greatest success is not the money but lack of poison that was forming on my tongue whilst on forced schizophrenia meds.

Thanks. I will do.

I ran a thread about vaping here so wanted to confirm my success in stopping that also. went down to 1 mg and stopped there and gave my vape machine away.

Your lungs will thank you for it.

Congratulations, you will never be sorry.

I quit in about 5 min., totally on my own through sheer force of will. Well, plus one hypnosis seminar. It was just time. I was sick of it.

I wasn't on any other medications at the time, though.

thanks.

you quit recently too? well done.

I was so sick of it too... where hating it made my willpower strong. Just being honest that it's a liability I don't want. Vaping, however, was key in my method and my success is due to vapes.

thanks, its about a month or so I've had no vape or cigarette.

For me changing to a vape was about as hard as giving up vaping, which was relatively new to me... about a month.

Not recently, about 20 years gone now.

Isn't it all about breaking a habit?

Yes, and it's terribly hard.
