Stop thinking about it! Distract yourself. Paint some sticky numbers or some'at.
I HAVE been painting numbers on things...Unfortunately,they were not as 'sticky' as I would of liked!.....Day 7,still all good!,I went to Poundland this morning,and apart from all the Christmas shite,Mrs DT wanted,I grabbed some 88 Vape E-Liquid.a menthol one,and a fruit salad style one....Stop thinking about it! Distract yourself. Paint some sticky numbers or some'at.
It is not actually that bad!,it says it is made with all natural ingredients.....Is arsenic natural?...Poundland, a quid each? Go figure. Are you sure 88 Vape E-Liquid is fit for human lungs? Is it like our shaving soap with EU approval or an untested foreign import? No proper cigs still? Good man!
2 weeks at 12pm on Monday!.....Yipppeee!....Good for you! How many days is that?
Cheers buddy!,the hardest time of the day for me is about 3-4 hours after waking up (I wake up at stupid times,like 1.30 am),but the 'urge' has finally gone!.Slowly but surely matey, your getting to the forgetting to smoke stage, good sign.
Completely agree with all of the above.People who quit cold turkey don't annoy me. It's the ones who insist that since they quit cold turkey, anyone can.
Here's the thing, some people are addicted to the nicotine, some are addicted to the MAOI's in tobacco, and some are addicted to both. If a person is only addicted to the nicotine, three days of tobacco abstinence is enough to break the habit. If you are addicted to the MAOI's or the MAOI's and nicotine, it's much, much harder to break the cycle.
Add in the hand to mouth habit, and things get even rougher. There are special e-liquids for people with MAOI addiction, called WTA (whole tobacco alkaloid) e-liquids. Those contain the full spectrum of tobacco alkaloids, not just the nicotine (major alkaloid) that makes up 95% of the alkaloid content in cigarettes.
If you quit smoking, picked up vaping, and still find yourself craving 'something more,' it's a good sign that you are also addicted to the anti-deppressants (MAOI) in cigarettes.
Sorry for the long winded technical post. Most people don't care about or understand this stuff.
