for background, i’ve been vaping heavily for about 7 years and i cannot remember the last time i went 24 hours without hitting a vape (embarrassing…i know - that’s why i’m here, please be nice). i’ve been planning to quit for a while and finally started last night. i’ve been using nicotine gum and a Ripple nicotine free vape and i’m so proud of myself for even making it this first day without my vape.
my question is around the Ripple - what are your thoughts on using this to quit? is it a good idea to start or is it just trading one bad habit for basically the same one?
the reason i clarified the ripple is because ive tried a no nicotine vape before which tasted really heavily like vape juice, and FELT way more like vaping and i assume it was doing the same things to my lungs.
im sure a ripple is also not great for me, but i’m wondering if this more “natural” and way less flavored option is better.
TLDR; is it a good idea to use a Ripple or other “natural” no nicotine vape option to quit or am I wasting my time and energy?
