You have come to the right place for support. 

Just like the lack of research surrounding the dangers of vaping in general, there are very few resources available specifically for those who are looking to quit vaping. On the bright side, however, the process for quitting smoking is almost identical to the one for quitting vaping, with the added benefit of being able to fully control the amount of nicotine you use, depending on the e-cig you are using. @Quitting E-cigarettes | Guides & Tools | BecomeAnEX

Quitting vaping is recovering from nicotine addiction, just like those of us who smoked cigarettes.  It is not an event, it is a journey and it has to be one day at a time.  First of all, read everything you can find about nicotine addiction and then reach out like you just did for support from people who know what you are going through.  Next and perhaps most importantly, make a commitment to yourself not to smoke/vape NO MATTER WHAT.  Withdrawal symptoms are temporary and it DOES get easier.  No one knows how you might be damaging your poor body with JUUL, I am horrified that yet another entire generation is being groomed for nicotine addiction.  

I came to this site every morning and every evening when I first quit and I have been quit for over 5 1/2 years now.  I tried to quit in the past but this site and the people here were what I needed to get on the right path.

Welcome to EX.
