if anyone see this and has been successful at quitting smoking/vaping please lmk and give me advice... heres my story. started with cigs in may of 2018. i bought a pack for fun and because i was outside so much. i loved the head buzz i would get, and they just felt like an addition to biking. i could go days without them. as summer went on, i started smoking more. eventually i got down to half a pack a day, which isnt so horrible, but it was inconvenient since i was only 17. in early september when school started, i couldnt focus without them and so i decided to buy a juul. biggest mistake of my life!! I started out with maybe half a pod a day, which quickly turned into 1 and then two a day. from around october to current times, i’ve stayed consistent w/ around 1-2 pods a day. after seeing these articles about people fucking dying from vaping, i really want to quit. i’ve lost so much weight from smoking and my health has gotten even worse. i want to quit, but after trying to go coldturkey, my anger is so uncontrollable, especially at work. i cant have a normal conversation w anyone without getting angry, i ended up throwing boxes all over the freezer out of frustration and purposely burning myself w the oven racks. i’m so sick of feeling like a stupid device controls my life, and no one takes it seriously because “oh it’s just a little electronic party thing” but its actually fucking me up. its gotten to the point that i know the only way i might be able to stay away from it is by getting myself hooked onto something else addictive, which is a stupid decision. so all my fellow NICOTINE ADDICTS, I KNOW I HAVE TO WANT TO QUIT. AND I DO. but i need some advice, tips, anything fucking anything.
