So long story short I started smoking when I was in my mid-twenties and did it for about 10 years. It wasn’t until recently I switched over to vaping in a vain attempt to quit smoking. Well, it worked, I quit smoking but became totally addicted to vaping instead.
It’s so difficult to kick compared to drinking. Alcohol would make me have terrible hangovers and I’d binge so there’d be weeks at a time I’d lose to being drunk. Compared to smoking it’s nefarious, with cigs I could only smoke outside and there was only 20 to a pack, so I’d have to space it out and plan my breaks around smoking a cig.
Vaping on the other hand, you can do anytime anywhere (mostly). I’d just sit at the computer all day vaping. I even stopped playing games (my passion) just to sit and vape and disassociate.
Anyway I’m trying, again, to quit. I tried yesterday but I ended up fishing out a burnt vape from the trash and took a bunch of hits that made me gag.
So I came to a realization of sorts, my ass is fishing through nasty garbage and putting that to my mouth to get a nicotine fix. Look at how far my ass has fallen
I’ll update this post when I hit the 6 hour mark. God help me.
That’s rough comrade, I’m sorry. Although I wonder if you could create some negative associations through keeping your old vape and hitting it? I bought a pod system and it pretty much just put me off of vaping for a variety of reasons but one was the taste would just be so off randomly and often that I just stopped wanting it
Thanks. I’m too broke to afford to support the habit anymore or else I’d probably have a rig. I’ve wasted so much money on disposables and created so much e-waste
I feel you, the waste of dispos is pretty ridiculous and was reason enough to make me wanna quit. I think you can do it though! Its rough because there’s so much nicotine in disposables, much higher than cigarettes, but if you white knuckle it after the first two weeks I feel like it was much easier to forget about than cigarettes were
