Try and Try yet again

Since I thought I may be able to break my duck and only vape, I was wrong, as no matter how long I go without smoking, I feel I am always destined to smoke. But I know for sure that that is not the case. As the longest I had abstained for was 42 days straight without thinking about smoking, but it was only that I could not taste my juice, that I had relapsed into smoking. Due to me still having some left from last time. But that was years ago and about to be 10 years in October….

I have been trying to quit smoking for over 10 years. But since I only do a day or two since April of last year. I find that I am vaping more than smoking since then.

I will say this though, I just wish I never return to smoking in any shape or form. Just to vape and vape more when the cravings come.

For the umpteenth time!

Hello all, long time since I last updated this blog, but here goes, I just cannot get passed the 3 week mark, as I tend to have a cigarette to celebrate my achievement. But in saying this I find myself at a loss, as I would normally do about a week without smoking and then when I have a cigarette, I follow that up by having more.

I am stupid in thinking that I can have just the one, when I was doing so well. This then leads to me having about a packet or more during the following days.

I will one day find that I can last a year or longer without smoking. But for the time being, I have done more weeks without smoking than smoking itself.

So I will continue my journey in trying to be a none smoker and to prove to myself that I can live without smoking for the long run in and to never ever put one to my lips again.

It’s a long time comming

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.

I will beat this addiction to smoking, with me trying again to Quit.

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.

I think I may be able to Quit Smoking Now!!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
