Vaping nicotine. I know I can stop but it’s just a very difficult challenge for me. Still better than smoking cigs but I really need to let this vice go.

When I quit smoking I holed myself up in a dark room with provisions to last a week. It was hell but it worked.

Check out Allan Carr Easy Way. It really really really works

I quit 3.5 years ago using that book and have had 0 cravings since.

That’s the plan! I read it originally to quit cigs but ended up picking up the vapes.

Nicotine is 7 times more addictive than heroin. It’s unlikely you’ll be able to stop.

Hyper bitchass comment

The statements are both true. Also, the best way to get someone to accomplish something is to tell them it can’t be done.

Maybe if it's like doing the washing or sweeping the floor or something. For addicts it's just confirmation that they shouldn't try.

I made it a month once. It’s really seated as more of a psychological addiction for me. I am going to try reading Allen Carr’s “The Easy Way” for quitting vaping to see if I can start the brainwashing process of not “needing” this fix.
