    This is going to be my last vape. Vaping is a hangover from my last bender, which lasted about 5 weeks. Easier to quit booze than nicotine, the craving for booze comes after the first drink but doesn’t persist after I stop for long at all. Nicotine however is a different story. I have those lozenges to defeat the cravings and a plan to wean myself off them over a couple of weeks if I need to. 50 days sober today, so the end of vaping is how I’ll celebrate this milestone.

    Only walked 4ks at work, so need to do another 6 today and luckily the weather is pretty perfect for it.

        Unfortinately I have a bunch of experience with quitting harmful things. Fucking drugs.

          I have heard nicotine is harder to quit than heroin. So be kind to yourself, forgiving, and always keep going. You have my support 💜💜💜

            Heroin is relatively easy to quit if you can remove yourself from the situation. If you can’t do that, it’s very difficult.

            Maybe I’ll use herion to stave off the cravings… 😂 I’ve not been on the vape long this time so it shouldn’t be too difficult.
