any piece of advice is welcome

P.S. Thanks to all the people that have taken their time to help me (and not just me, but others as well). It is much appreciated, and, from what I‘ve read, the „cold turkey“ method seems the most appealing to me. I‘ll quit smoking today, on the 7th of November 2024.

    I vaped for quite a while. Got a bit addicted to the tinkering and the juice hunting. It can be a fun hobby which probably makes it a bad way to quit if you’re anything like me.

    I worked myself down on the nicotine levels until I was at zero.

    Relapsed back to cigarettes after not having vaped for a few months due to stress.

    Finally stopped cold turkey. Didn’t go back to vaping just decided it was time.

    Things that ultimately helped:

    • Having a reason to quit that I could remind myself of daily as an affirmation.
    • My partner was also quitting, I needed her to stop and needed to be there to support her efforts.

    If I was going to do it again, I’d probably look into Fum or something similar. Probably add some nicotine gum at the start to ease the chemical addiction.
