I quit cigarettes 5 years ago buy buying a refillable vape and juice all the same flavor I enjoy from the highest nic strength to zero and I tapered to 0mg over the course of two months then tossed it out, haven't had any nicotine since. It really helped me, I tried quitting so many other ways and they all failed. Good luck!
This was how I quit. I just tapered until zero and then gave it up. I even made my own juice so I could control the nicotine levels whenever I wanted. Best decision I ever made for my health.
This is how I quit too but I started at 6mg nicotine. A lot of people start at 18mg or so but I think that that's too much, at least for me. I was nearly having heart palpitations taking hits off of a friend's vape, lol.
If you really want to quit, I used Chantix and it took away the wanting a smoke really well, finally was able to stop completely. Still can't breath for shit 4 years later :(
*side effects may include suicidal thoughts or actions, death, nausea, vomiting, swelling of the face and hands, black tarry stool, hallucinations, worsening mood, anxiety, and hostility
Talk to your doctor if you think Chantix is right for you!
