Untitled, or should it be?

Due to me having no willpower at all, and it is nearing my birthday, I thought about posting this to try and get me to quit smoking, even if my heart is not in it. But alas, I should try tonight as tomorrow will be the 6th of September, and my birthday will be one month away on Sunday.

I will make my case known to the world. If you are finding it hard to quit smoking, never quit quitting. The more attempts you have at it, the more chance you will abstain from smoking for some duration of time, and the likelihood of this is that you will not have smoked in a while.

But if you have cut down your consumption, then this is good, as you will be less likely to start smoking again to the amount that you did. When you are certain that the vapouriser is working for you more and prefer sweet flavours over burning tobacco, you may have a better chance of reducing the amount you smoke.

I know I can do this, but what am I waiting for?

I have hardly been posting here or elsewhere for a while now. So, I need to get into gear and quit smoking. But alas, how can I do this if my heart is not in it?

I should have quit on the 2nd of April of this year, and it would have been one day and odd hours completed.

But since I knew that Mother just purchased a sleeve of cigarettes, I was dumbfounded into thinking I may have some. It only took one cigarette to get me hooked again.

But since it is a new day, I thought that I would try and quit again at 8 am. This would be ideal for me as all I have to do is stay on the vape until midnight and sleep the day through until 9 am, and then I would have done a day again.

I know it is doable but what are your thoughts.

Whenever I try, I will always try.

Over the past few days, I have been trying to get along with 6mg juices in the Luxe X Pro. But to no avail. I couldn’t hack it, as I was constantly coughing. So I tried to use 0mg juice, only to find it smoother, and I hardly coughed as much.

Then, as I still had nicotine in the freezer, and there was about 2.5 litres worth of 72mg/ml left, I tried to get rid of it by asking if anyone wanted it. Then, since nobody wanted it, I was forced to throw it out and never look back. I also threw out my Nicotine bags (snus).

I also threw out my stash of liquids, all 6mg and about half of 24mg.

Moral of this story is to not to panic buy.

I find that I have neither found a thing to satisfy me.

From the first day I started to smoke, I became increasingly addicted to smoking. But for some time now, I have felt the need to quit smoking, and I nearly did this seven years ago. But since I took a puff of a cigarette, I thought I could still go without if I had only had one. But boy, was I mistaken.

For these seven years, I have just continued to smoke or made some effort into vaping. I have had a few hours to a few days done here and there.

But if I continue to smoke, I know that it will have an adverse effect on me in the future. Meaning I will see to have had a smoking-related disease. And I do not want to go down that road. I know that since my very first cigarette, it did something terrible to my lungs. Yet sometimes, when I inhale smoke, I feel a burning sensation at the back of my throat. And I do not like this.

I will eventually quit. But this has to be in my own time.

It could have been.

I was going so well in my achievement in quitting smoking and I knew that sometime I may fail. But I was into day 6 and I did.

Firstly, I know the dangers of smoking, but I ignore these and just smoke.

Secondly, I have smoked half of my life and a bit, so it is sometimes hard to break a habit of a lifetime and change the way I get my nicotine.

I just wish that I did not smoke anymore since my dad passed away from a smoking illness.

I will now be Quitting smoking and the time I will do this is the 21st of August 2023. At 2 PM but banners are 1 hour behind Daylights Savings Time.

I Can Do This, Hopeing

For just over a week now I have been smoking less and less. As I am using Disposables. Take for instance the 19th of this month, I was starting day 1 of a nearly 3-day stretch, without smoking.

But now I have been doing a day here and there. Only to start again with Vaping.

The reason for this post is to help others who need help and support. Like I do Now.

My only hope is for each day that I do, I hope I can continue to Vape, and forget smoking as an afterthought.

So if you would like to know. My Quit date is the 31st of July 2023 at 3 AM in the early hours of the night.

Over the course of a week!

Yes I have been smoking but it has reduced by a 1/3 as I would have had about 13 packets within a week, and is now 4 packets.

This is solely down to Vaping a few days here and there.

But what I am surprised about is that now I have my heart and soul in it.

So when I do a day again, I hope that I will be able to continue. And beat my 42 days spent not smoking.

The miracle is on its way!

Over the course of 3 weeks, I have done more hours not smoking since a long time ago. And now I am determined to quit smoking.

Yet although I have racked up a few days and hours here and there, I seem to always want to smoke, as if I am missing an old habit.

I find it easier to vape now more than ever and I will now try my hardest to keep you all updated and stating that now I am a former Smoker.

I just wish that when I started my vaping journey all them years ago, I did not light up a ciggy, just because I could not taste a friend’s juice.

As I am starting over I would just like to say one thing, please encourage me to stay clear of a packet of cigarettes, that would otherwise be mine.

For about a month now!

As the title suggests, I have been trying my hardest to quit smoking. With me only narrowly doing just over a day last week and nearly two.

I have been forced to buy some vape pods, and have been using them.

They’re Elf Bars Peach Ice, Spearming & Watermelon.

I had been using the Peach Ice for just over a day, two days ago. But now I am on the Spearmint.

My last known drag of a Real Cigarette was 12:30 last night.

It is now nearly 17:20 on the 2nd of July 2023.

I just hope I can stick with it and just vape without coughing.
