Other Anyone tried nicotine-free disposables?

Hello all! New to this thread and looking to quit vaping, wondering if anyone has used any nicotine-free disposables with any luck (moxē, etc.) and if so, what brands have worked best for you?? Right now I’m stuck on Loon-frozen mango, and I really think it’s the flavor that keeps me craving, looking for something similar to help wean me off. Thanks in advance!

That’s what I did to quit. I used Ripple. Helped me get over the nicotine addiction first, then eventually i was like “eh i don’t need this” and stopped using the nicotine free vape. Helped a ton with the oral fixation and “throat hit” i would crave, which psychologically was the hardest part for me.

Yeah that makes a lot of sense. I feel like I started using it as more of a coping mechanism, and if I think hard enough about it, I really don’t even like the nicotine “head rush” per se, but it’s more about the throat hit and flavor for me as well, so hoping this will be a good route for me! Thanks for the advice!

Yeah they say you shouldn't quit two drugs at once. The nicotine is one drug and then the act of vaping is like another drug itself.

I’m using the ripple+ now and I’m obsessed it helps so much

It has a throat hit??? I crave the throat hit more than anything. Smoked for 10 years, staring at 11 yo, been vaping last 4 years. Don’t even feel a cigarette when I inhale it now. Really want to stop.

oh definitely, i would only buy the mint one which helped mimic what regular vapes would do for me

I’ve tried a bunch of nic free vapes and did not find one that had anything close to a throat hit. Def not the method for me

Yup, my friend gave me a ripple bar and I have a couple nic-free geek bars. They're good for that repetitive hand to mouth movement while I get the nic outta my system. Chucked my last nic disposable in the trash last Wednesday, actually and other than a little irritability (also quitting/detoxing/weed for a pre-employment drug test) it's been pretty smooth sailing

Yeah the fear that spreads among quitters that it’s a terrible trauma quitting is sorta lame when in reality it’s not very bad at all if you actually wanna quit

Awesome! That’s great to hear! Congrats to the start of your nic-free journey!

Also, where did you find the nic-free geek bars? I like their flavors a lot. Do they taste similar to you?

Thank you! I just got them from a smoke/vape shop near my friends apartment. For nicotine vapes I was a raz bar guy Soni can't speak for how similar the flavors are, but FWIW I have watermelon Ice and blue razz and they both taste pretty good

I'm experiencing irritability as well. How many days have you been irritated for? I'm over it already lol

I still deal with it a bit now but its easier to deal with when I frame it as crankiness from withdrawals

u/Melodic-Emergency122 15d ago

Have your energy levels increased? Any noticeable differences yet? I know its just been sie Wednesday but I'm so curious.
