   Here's what I did to get rid of my nicotine addiction (vaping):

   - Gradually lower the strength of my liquid until it was at the minimum.

   - Stop all vaping and switch to nicotine gum

   - Gradually increase the time between each gum

   - Stop the gum altogether

   This process took probably 3 months and tbh it was pretty miserable the whole time. It's 100% worth it tho, You don't realize how much it controls your life until you stop. You will also still get random cravings for a year or two afterwards, Heck it's been 4 years and I still sometimes get dreams where I'm vaping.

      Good job!! Would it have been less miserable if you did it more slowly? With antidepressants and other psychoactive meds the ride tends to be easier when it's drawn out longer.
