Vaping - How much is too much?

So as the title suggests I'm wondering about the average amount people vape?

I get through two x 12,000 puff vapes a week so I'm averaging about 24 Thousand puffs a week.
(Of course this is an average as you don't always get as many puffs as they say)

For example if I forget it & buy a 600puff elf bar whilst out, that'll last me about an hour ish.

I knew I was vaping too much (well any is too much!) but I've just told someone else and they've said it's an astronomical amount.

I don't need people telling me it's a horrible habit trust me I KNOW that and I've cut my nicotine amount right down it's just the hand to mouth habit I can't stop , it seems to be masking some of my other usual anxious stims. So wondering how much others do it.

Thank You xx

That is an awful lot but you can reduce it, I have this for the hand to mouth habit

You need to also get nicotine gum, probably 4mg and use that too. Taper down your puffs - buy a refillable vape that has a puff counter and bring the puff count down every day. I used this one:

but there are others out there. Loads cheaper than disposables as well in the long run. I use a no flavour liquid (cirro tobacco flavour from Tesco - it’s practically flavour free) to stop it being so moreish.

Find your trigger times (coffee/drinks) and save your bigger puff sessions for that time. Gradually you can cut back on those too.

I went from 150 puffs a day and now on 15 so you can definitely cut yours back.
