My longest quit before this was like 4.5 months (maybe less? Heck I don't even remember now) so def the longest quit and yes def the easiest. Would I ever smoke again, I hope not!!!!! I can't lie and say even till now, I get tempted (when around others smoking w/a few cocktails or very stressed out days) but the will power to say no is so strong that it pulls me through.
I hate to say it, but us ex-smokers, unless it turns out you become repulsed by the smell and smoking in general, I think will always be "addicted" to it and could easily slip back to it if we let ourselves to. I had always wished when I hit past a year, the smell would totally make me sick but it hasn't. But the thought of ever smoking again DOES make me sick and cringe going through the withdraws again.
Maybe it wouldn't be such a grip still on me if I could ever get below 12 mg!!! UGH.
I agree, Angie. For me, I am addicted to smoking. Just as an alcoholic is always addicted. For some, just one drink would trigger it all over again. I won't find out. I made that error many times, to have "just one." But now, I have my vape, and no desire or craving for a cig.
I am addicted to nicotine. I have weaned down to 6 and 5. I feel I could stop, if I wanted to, and it wouldn't be near as bad as quitting smoking cold turkey.
AngiBe, maybe you should try some Fusion at 6mg/ml. And just add a bit to each tankful. Then at some point, buy 6mg juice and spike it with a little 12mg Fusion.
Of course, there's nothing really wrong with your nic level. There was something wrong with the 500 packs of smokes a year.
btw, did the store you bought cigs from go out of business?
