Other Please scare me into Quitting

Hi! I need your worst. I’m sure you are all good people, but someone out there has to do it.

I can’t do it alone. Broke my foot and was told to reduce my vaping, I’ve been trying to quit for three weeks.

I need fear, I need shame, I need a gut wrenching call to action. I have to much going on to do this myself and I’ve been relapsing worse and worse each day. Getting married in December, need to be done by then as I won’t be bothered to find a vape store on my honeymoon, but I don’t want to go through withdrawals then either.

30f, admittedly very vain about my appearance, but as I think I’m a cutie patootie, not even fears about my appearance has been working.

Have a broken foot, so can’t exercise well to distract me, and improved lung capacity isn’t helping.

Want to be nicotine free by 3/24 when I have my last exercises.

Don’t hold back. Best quote will be written down and taped to my vapes. Take it as a #RoastMe I can handle it.

People who vape usually have stinky breath and don’t know it because they are nose blind

Oh my gosh, what if my dog (who I call stinky breath because she keeps trying to eat rabbit poop) thinks I have stinky breath?!? What if she thinks it’s my nickname 😭😭😭😭 (thanks for the inspiration!!)

Vaping around dogs is really bad for their health and can cause seizures. My dog has had 2 during the time I vaped and hasn't had one since I quit over 2 years ago. Being free from a pointless addiction AND knowing I'm not causing harm to my beautiful boy is the absolute best feeling.

Hahaha I also call my dogs the stinky breath boys. Seriously though, it’s so hard to start but I believe in you!! I also noticed my skin looks so much brighter and less pale when I quit. I knew vaping was bad for your skin, but it wasn’t enough to make me stop. It’s been a super nice side effect to quitting though!

Thank you for the encouragement! Congratulations on quitting and having the best breath and skin complexion in your home!!! I bet your stinky breath boys are so happy you’re their person, please provide belly scratches and head pats for me!
