My Personal Journey Into Vaping
For the past 3 months, I have been Vaping for many days, then going back to smoking, as the furthest I have done is 5 days 11 hours.
This is not due to vaping being inadequate but to my own necessity of having just one. Then that leads to another and another.
Overall, I Quit again on the 3rd of March 2025 @ 4 PM or 16:00 hours.
Mainly due to my coughing fits, but I like the taste of flavours more than burning tobacco.
Since my last post, I had lasted nearly 5 days without smoking. But, had smoked over a week.
Now I am about to go into my 4th day in about 4 hours time.
I have already done 2 days and 20 hours and 25 minutes so far.
But what I am lacking is my will power for starters, I will need to keep myself busy doing some stuff, without the need to clock watch.
I will start now. But I did Quit again as of the 14th of January 2024 @ 00:00:00 Midnight.
For over a week now I have had about 6 days since Tuesday 12th of November, done. This is because I am using Rechargable Disposables. And am able to quit with Nicotine. Since when I was using Freebase for my own concoxtions.
I had done about nearly 5 days since the 12th and now since the 21st, at 1:40 AM.
Hoping to beat my 42 day done since towards the end of 2016.
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 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.
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.
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.
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.
During the month of October I will try to quit smoking and only vape, since it is a national Stoptober event.
For a person to give up smoking, it takes a lot of willpower and endurance not to pick up and light one up.
But if you have been using an E-Cig for the best part of the day, you will start to notice that odd taste when you light one up.
I had been smoking since the age of 15 and now since I did about 42 days back in 2016. From the 5th of October to the 14th of November.
I want to rekindle this and try again since it is Stoptober for instance.
So far today since getting up at 3 PM, I have had 11 cigarettes and it has gone past 8 PM now.
So I still have 12 in a packet and want to diminish this.
So now will only Vape from now on. Hoping that I can.
What would you do if you had a narrow throat, that restricted you to only cough when smoking or vaping.
What would you do if having found an alternative to the deadly weed, I.e Cigarettes. That each time you take a pull you cough your lungs up, no matter what you do, wether you smoke or vape.
What would you do if you had never continued to smoke in your early years, would you still feel the need to smoke now since we have all the time in the world to have one. I sure would not.
But I am only stating facts when I say that since I started to smoke, I cannot quit the deadly habit.
And the longest time without smoking was 42 days, about 5 years ago.
I just wish that I did not pick up that cigarette and started to smoke, just because I could not taste my juice.
I will now and forever be blessed with vaping.
