Well I did drop the nic content in my juice over the years. But when I quit, I was still doing 6 mg and vaping all day long non-stop.
But when I realized I didn’t need vaping as a psychological reassurance that would prevent me from falling back into tobacco addiction, I wondered if perhaps I really didn’t need nicotine either. And it turned out, I didn’t. I kind of craved a bit for a few days, but not really that much.
I think the delivery mode of vaping makes a huge difference: when you smoke, you get a spike of nicotine, then a low, then a spkie at the next cigarette, etc. When you vape, the nic level in your blood rises up slowly, and stays there, but never really spikes like with cigarettes. So when you smoke, you get hit after hit and you crave the next hit. When you vape, there really isn’t any hit. So my theory is that over time, despite pumping myself full of nicotine out of habit, my body just didn’t really crave it anymore, and I only realized when I stopped for good.
Well, I meant how you quit vaping, there’s no difference between quitting one way of getting nicotine and the other.
Ah right, sorry I misunderstood.
