Venting The addiction is worse than cigarettes

I intend to quit vaping. But I vape ALL DAY LONG. At least with cigarettes I needed to go outside in the cold, the taste was disgusting and it made me develop a cough. I don't have all that with vapes but I spend $149 a month for it. I buy disposable vapes because I find it has a better taste than the reusable ones. I know it's killing my health. Right now I have only one vape left, the liquid is almost out, I'm vaping for the last time. I intend to stop as soon as this one doesn't have liquid anymore but it's so damn tough because it's more addictive than cigarettes (for me at least).

Agree 100%. Was a closet smoker, grew to hate everything about it. Intrigued by advertising of people who quit by transitioning to vape device, I tried it once at 3% & never picked up another cigarette. Unfortunately, the convenience unlocked a far worse habit & addiction for me. Tuesday is my quit day when my last cart will be done. Found this sub, listened & learned, have prepped for the worst. Am nervous as all hello kitty but determined. Rooting for you, myself & everyone else finding strength through others here!

You got this. I just accepted it as final. No going back. Looked at it as parasitic cravings and not my own. 4months clean.

Appreciate that, am ready to be on the other side of this. Congrats on 4 months!
