    Default Who here has quit vaping?

    I started to vape during the pandemic and I really want to kick the habit as I think it tends to give me bouts of anxiety.

    I have reduced the nicotine content to the lowest but I'm finding myself vaping as I watch tv because it's just so easy.

    Who here has quit? Why did you quit? How did you quit?

    How? You could just… you know… stop buying vape stuff when you run out. It’s not rocket science, just exercise some self control.

    I'm going on a work trip tomorrow so I'm not going to bring it with me, if it's not easily accessible for a week then I'll be good (fingers crossed) those damn flavors are getting good

    A wise Asian man once told me the secret.
    He bought a case of cigarettes and smoked it all in a day.
    He'll never forget the ill feeling and never smoked after that.
    Find the vape equivalent.

    Or replace it with another vice.

    I said it was simple, not easy haha.

    If OP is successful in not doing it while on the work trip, he’ll be off to the races. First two days are the worst.

    I hear meth and fentanyl are all the rage these days.

    The first step is obviously to reduce the nic level to nothing so your body is no longer craving it physically. Then it's all about willpower of breaking the habit, rather than physical dependency.

    At that point, you just need to use the techniques that work for you. Cold turkey. Reduction. Replacing it with something else. Distraction techniques. Stuff like that.

    One time in stampede 2019 they were giving those vapes out everywhere. I got one and had the berry flavor. It tasted unreal and really went well with how my night was trending (getting hammered)

    After that night I threw it out.

    Use me as your case study if you want.
