Cutting back On vaping

[Fishtec]

So guys its been just over two years of smoke free but the last week has brought me a new job ( which is far more formal then my previous job) so I have decided to quit vaping as I can't exactly use my ecigs at work like I used to and in all honesty that's where I spent 80 percent of my vaping time so provaris have been sold as motivation for the quit all I've got left is my bask up twist so was wondering if anyone has advice on how to quit vaping and nicotine for good I've limited myself to 2ml a day down from roughly 5 meaning my last bottle of liquid will last about two weeks just enough time to work my notice and get into my new job without jonesing for a vape every half hour

Get rid of all your stuff and don't buy more. That's really a way to quit!

 

[Fishtec]

That's the plan ultimately but don't want to run into a shop and buy 20 fags first sign of stress like I used too was after ideas on how to wean myself off and get around that without buying cigarettes or another provari lol

What if you worked down to 0 nic juice? Then the only habit would be the actual vaping which would be a psychological addiction and not physical at that point.

Well are you really craving 2mg of nicotine, or is it your mind telling you to think you do?

 

[Fishtec]

Deffionatly my mind more then craving although I do get cravings for a ciggarette / vape I'm genrally ok it's when I know I can't have one for example give me a ecig or a pack of ciggaretes in my pocket with the jnowledge I can have one whenever I like I'm fine for hours second I used to say right no more cigarettes and I consciously knew I could not have another one I'd be clawing at walls I know I'm not on my own with this most smokers I have spoke to have said roughly the same thing

Zero Nicotine Vaping and Quitting Vaping

 

[Bosco]

I can't vape openly at work but find all sorts of opportunities to sneak a drag or 2. Men's room is always good - so are empty hallways, stepping outside to make a call, driving to/from lunch, in the stairwell, etc.

You might also want to change flavors if you're using tobacco flavored juice - I find mint and unflavored to be pretty stealthy. Use extra high mg, too - so you can get your fix quickly.

If you do quit altogether, I have found commit lozenges work pretty well after an initial adjustment period.

What mg nic are you currently using ? The most likely method to successfully quit with the littlest pain is to first work your way down to 0 mg nic and be comfortable there before removing the hand to mouth addiction of using your ecig.

How anyone can cut back on vaping with all the great flavors out there, is beyond me.

I'd go zero nic in this case, and use it as much as you can. Fill in with your nic vape when the jones becomes severe. You should find that the jones is less severe after a few days, and you don't need the nic so much.

Alternately, if your new job allows smokers (some do not), you can simply cut down your nic and join them. Or, like others said, develop a minor bladder issue that requires you pee every hour or so.

If you want to use up your current flavors of juice, couldn't you just add 0 nic in the same flavor to them and keep adding more and more until your level dropped to 0? That's how I would do it. Then once I was at 0 nic, I would keep my PV to enjoy an occasional vape in the evenings without worrying about being addicted to the nic. But that's just me.

Currently on 20mg managed most of yesterday not a problem and I doubt my new employers willi ok to favourably on a pv sticking out of my suit plus dont want to push my luck by having a bladder problem my current manager has gotten sick enough of that one as it is lol so don't wanna be the liability two min through the door
