I stopped vaping the other day and even though i don't have any physical withdrawals i struggle mentally .

( started vaping over a year ago , as adult , for stupid reasons as never smoked before )

Is anyone quitting vaping/smoking too and wants to encourage each other ? Any tips how to stop mentally craving it ?

I been reading all the vaping causes and lack of research but i think constantly reading about vaping just makes me want a vape
TIA

I used to have one or sometimes 2 a day , you can vape anywhere and it never left my hand .

I threw them all out and hopefully can reply on Nicorette gum for now . I'm definitely not failing , you can do this too , if there is a will there is a way

it's actually scary how addictive vapes are , some recon they are worse then cigarettes.

Oh well i went through few days , i already can breath easier and my cough stopped so will just carry on 😓

Read Allen Cart’s easy way to stop smoking. It takes all of the stress out of stopping.

Just by way of encouragement OP I found the first week SO hard. Second week was loads easier and by the third week I didn't miss it at all. But that first week is so hard, you should be proud of yourself!

I'm definitely not going to fail , i'm stubborn towards my goals .

It's just i'm suffering and made the thread for advice and encouragement, so appreciate it all ladies ❤️

Can't wait for my book to arrive and for first week to be out of the way .

I still look for my vape when i'm having coffee in the morning. searching on sofa automatically sort of , then it hits me i quit .

It's very addictive, i wish i never started , so stupid .

Nice to hear success stories ! And i can't wait to come back to this thread in few months and share my success as well X

yeah definitely, as you can puff on vapes all day and everywhere!

and i like the taste , all the lovely flavours compared to the nasty smell if cigarettes. It's sooo addictive and so bad for you !

My cough completely gone just after few days without. My lungs are definitely thanking me 😂 x

day 6 no vaping , i don't want it anymore so took about 5 days to ease cravings ..
Day 3 is the worst . Then it's easier .

My Allen Carr's Easy way to Stop Smoking haven't arrived yet. I guess i can read it anyways when it's here .
