I quit vaping 30 minutes ago - help me get through it

Was a smoker for 5 years and quit to vape 8 years ago. Vaper ever since. Tried quitting twice before. I've been slowly running out of vape juice the last couple of days but couldn't be bothered to get more. Got to the point where I was rummaging through old bags to try and find vape juice and realised how sad it was my vape controlled me in this way. So chucked it in the bin. Longest I've lasted is 3 days. I go to Krakow Friday with my mum (who's a smoker) so really hoping I can stay on track.

anyone successfully managed to quit?

Keeping your hands busy is great advice. Knitting, needle felting crafting etc.

sips of water is good. I saw a hypnotherapist who refused to hypnotise me but he did say trey taking a big breath like when you’re inhaling - the best bit/ the relaxing bit of smoking/ vaping is the big inhale of air not the toxins. It’s strange but you feel it when you try it.

Alan Carr books are absolute witch craft - annoying read but blimey they do make quitting feel good and easy. Good luck. You’ve got this

Realizing how much it controls you is a powerful step. If you're serious about quitting www.puffstats.com/ can help you track cravings and stay focused especially with the trip coming up.
