This thread is only for speculative purposes. I am not backing it with any medical, or scientific research, only speculation.
Vaporizers have quickly risen to #1 for smoking cessation throughout the world. While actual numbers are unknown, individual reports of success are skyrocketing.
So, you stopped smoking, how will you stop vaping? Some of us never will.
After roughly 7 months of vaping, I find that I'm getting bored with the process of "smoking". I no longer feel the need for chemical satisfaction. It almost seems more trouble than its worth really. Here's my theory.
Studies on whether or not nicotine itself, in its natural form, is actually addictive. We consume many other products that contain nicotine, yet we don't crave them. We also know that cigarettes have thousands of chemicals, some of which are unidentified. Perhaps it is some of those additives that are actually part of the addiction?
We begin by replacing the habit of smoking with a vaporizer. Then, we purge the body of as many unwanted chemicals as possible. As time progresses, the body begins to heal itself, some effects are temporarily painful. Gradually, we reduce our nicotine strength.
While the major contributing factor to smoking cessation is the psychology of the smoker, I believe that the chemical purge may be the second largest contributor.
Say that nicotine itself is in fact, not addictive. Rather the addiction is from the other chemicals. Ridding the body of the addiction, maintaining the purge, breaking the smoking habit, leaves us with only one step remaining. Being vape free.
Taking into account that one may not have the same controlling, all consuming urge to vape, as we do with smoking, all we would have to do is just walk away from our devices. In the same manner as we quit smoking, we gradually spend more and more time away from our vaporizer. Eventually, vape free.
Once we're done using "nicotine is addictive" as a crutch, could it really be so simple as to walk away healthier, yet much more educated? Smoke free, vape free?
Just a thought burning in my mind.
