I smoked for 23 years technically. I was mostly vaping the last 9 years of that and used vaping to lower my nicotine gradually. When I got to the point I was vaping without nicotine it still took a while to finally quit, but I finally did at the beginning of 2020.
Now I hate the smell and don’t crave them at all. I wish I would’ve done it sooner.
Remember that you don’t actually want it. It’s just a chemical your body is addicted to.
