I've actually quit for several months a couple of times, but the first really bad day made me run straight back to it. I guess part of what I need to do is educate myself on better coping mechanisms.
Infinix or Fit. Get the high strength nicotine salt juice.
There is a shift in how you deal with things. It is like an off brand smoke, or the difference between a menthol and regular.
It passes. Takes a day, maybe two. Once it has passed, you will find going to a real tobacco feels bad. It always was, but you became inured to it over time.
The other thing you will find is your craving isn't necessarily for nicotine. It's the extras, and of course, those are bad too. All an ugly cycle.
Scrape $50 together. That's enough for a unit, couple refillable chambers, and some good juice. Again, nicotine salt is where it's at. Get the highest strength, and use the device in moderation. You will self-select everything else quickly after that initial shift.
Then, no matter what, stay with it for a time. It will only take a few successful times for the psychological impact to fade and confidence grow.
From there, you've got a much healthier cost management problem. It's a nice problem to have.
I will have a look at the SMOK stuff - thanks.
