    I used them, they did help. It’s only one craving at a time you have to get through.

        If you vape have you tried slowly cutting down the nicotine mg until you simply forget to add nicotine / don’t notice the difference? The hand to mouth action and the breathing exercise then becomes the toughest habit to break, one which I cannot break and so have just accepted it at this stage.

        Also I found that the patches don’t really help because they’re “always on” and don’t replace the habitual behaviours, whereas the mints do as they’re a conscious decision to have one, the flavour of them though ruins meals. And they’re significantly more (prohibitively) expensive than vaping and cutting down nic levels.

          I was doing that until the ban came in. I was down to 3mg but now I have the disposables, who knows what the strength is. I tried getting the ones from the chemist but that was a fucking joke. You had to get a new script for every retailer. Because the doctors writing the scripts are either in business with the retailers, or actually own the company.

          I’ll try all options. I’ve got the inhaler and that helped a lot, but I let it go after a week. I want out. I’ve been addicted to nicotine for almost 25 years.

            Yo, vape liquid is just PG and VG with food flavouring - guides on the interwebs (I’m not at that point yet) and if you’re desperate for nicotine I have expired nicotine in the freezer from before the laws changed that I can maybe crash a bit of. It’s degraded, but was 200mg. I have enough to last me about 10-15 years which hopefully is long enough for the laws to change again otherwise darkweb it is.

            But yeah fuck the chemist route, I tried that with a plan to break them open and flavour them, and what an expensive ball ache that is, you need to see specialist GPs for a script, like wtf?..

            Well done for wanting out though, 23 years here and I can’t believe I used to be very against smoking. Fecking spliffs got me.

            Finally, good luck - you’ve got this!

              I’ve got heaps of nicotine, it’s just the coils I need. I should have grabbed a rebuildable but I’m shit out of luck.if you have one you want to sell let me know.

                I’m really sorry but I have only got one RDA and one RTA and as I’ve never tried either before I need to figure out which is easier/better for me. I’m still on throwaway coils for next few years and so I won’t know which one is spare for quite some time :(

                Edit: if you have a tank compatible with Smok v12 Q4 I can crash you 3 coils, or compatible with Valyrian III I can crash 6 coils. I probably have other in the house too but cba going through all my boxes.
