Yes it was definetly worth every agonizing moment.  I do still have cravings here and there but they are easy to get through.  I feel alot better.  More energy.  No more constant coughing.  No more smelly cloths and I just generally feel good about myself.  On top of everything else, after 60 days, I've saved $762.00!!  I am free from this nicademon!  

Looks like you are about done with hell week.  Congrats to you!  It gets easier......trust me.

@champsin97 wow it’s nice to see that you all are real people on here and actively supporting each other. That’s awesome. Thank you for reply and the look ahead at what is to come. Today was hard. But I’m trying to distract myself.im even dreaming of vaping. 🙄🫠 Do you/ did you use any nicotine gum or lozenges?

I did not use anything.  I just quit cold turkey.  That was what worked for me.  Everybody is different.

@champsin97 I didnt have the mindset to do that. Those of you that can are amazing. I had to have help. I'm just glad cold turkey worked for you, as the patch worked for me.

@qsiesue There is nothing more amazing about using a quit aid or not.  We have to choose our own path in life.  The end result is the the same.  You're are an EX.

Congrats on your quit.
