The hardest time?

For me, fishing is what got me started again when I quit for 3 weeks years ago. I don't think I'd would have had that issue had I had a pv back then.

Hardest times for me were during the first few days. I found it was during any of my normal triggers (wake up, after meals, step outside to smoke while on the phone -- that was the hardest, as it was where I did all my smoking).

What I did was changed things up on the big triggers like going into the kitchen instead of the garage. Worked great. I can't say I really have had a major craving since, but at the same time I've never been without a working pv with juice.

Oh, and stress. If I get stressed enough, I still find myself thinking let me get out of here and grab a smoke; but then I go doh, I don't smoke anymore. I grab the pv and still get out to decompress and the urge dies just as fast as it came.

One thing I found that worked for me is, when you get one of those cravings, and the pv isn't really cutting it, take slower drags. Inhale and hold it in a bit longer, blow it slowly out the nose. Give it all the time to let as much nic soak in. After a few of those more intense nic hits, I found it calmed me down.
