The last time I quit smoking I ended up doing it cold turkey. Cigarettes were a constant thought for months. They would creep into my mind so much, I'd put a rubber band around my wrist and snap it to get my thoughts away from cigarettes. My wrist was always sore...
Now that I'm vaping, I get the hand/mouth sensation and I don't think about cigarettes at all. Until I'm around them. Most of my friends smoke, so I'm around it more than I'd like to be. I'm already not enjoying their smoke, but I vape away and not even think once about lighting up with them.
I do notice cigarette butts more and more. I'm ashamed that I littered so much when I smoked. I did try to find an ashtray, or stub my cigarette out and throw it in the trash but I didn't always do that. Now I see what they look like as a non smoker. I feel sorry for those non smoking folks that have to clean up ashtrays.
