Ako mga pre former smoker for 5 years tapos nag switch to Vape for 6 years. Currently, I did cold turkey at 5 months na akong vape free. Medyo malabo pero in my opinion depende talaga sa motivation mo, medyo mainitin ulo ko nung first month pero after that wala pa rin cravings hanggang ngayon, tsaka medyo forgive niyo yung hand to mouth sensations niyo mapapalakas ka talaga sa snacks kapag nag quit ka haha

Anong app to boss?

Twice na din ako nag cold turkey kaso nagrerelapse ako e. I think yung environment and lack of support system ang problema ko. Need talaga ng matinding determination to.

Dang, good luck bro, malaking factor ang motivation talaga siguro sinwerte lang rin ako kasi nanawa na rin ako + nagkaron ako ng bagong interest/hobbies

switching to vape worked for me. switched to vaping 2017, then eventually fully quit by 2019.

It's a matter of mindset, anything that has addictive effects are almost impossible to stop. In order to quit from something you may have to look for another thing that can probably divert your attention. Best of luck!

Take your time.

Transition vices
e-cigarette > nicotine gum > quit

Or practice self-control
Reduce your smoking by 1 cigarette per week/month until it's zero. Start by eliminating the "extra" smokes (the 1 more smoke after smoking), then the punctuation smokes (after sex), the comfort smokes (after eating), then the stress smokes (when you're stressed).

You can also make smoking inconvenient once you're further along your journey.

Keep the smokes in the car or in an inconvenient place in your house with the lighter in a separate room or compartment in your car.
