Quit Smoking with an E-Cigarette
The hardest thing I have ever done in my life was to quit smoking. Smoking was my escape, it helped me cope with my teen angst and depression and stress. How hard was it to quit, you ask?
Well, it beats giving birth to children 8++ pounds via a C-section 2 times!
I quit smoking 6 or 7 years ago, give or take, and only because if I didn't B would totally leave me!
LOL.
No, he probably wouldn't but if I didn't quit, we'd get into a fight because of my chronic smoking. B smokes too, but not as excessive as I did. I used to smoke like a pack and a half per day, definitely too much. Let's face it, the double standard thing going on in our society is very much alive and women who smoke are given a negative look, especially from old people and people who don't smoke. Somehow, when men smoke it's fine but when women smoke, she automatically becomes not the type of girl you bring home to your mama, you know?
It's totally unfair but that's just the way it is.
Nowadays, kicking the habit is easier because genius people have invented stuff like e-cigarettes or electronic cigarettes. Basically, electronic cigarettes give you the illusion that you are smoking because it creates a nicotine solution vapor which is not as strong as the nicotine found in normal cigarettes, so it lessens your intake of nicotine, there by helping you to gradually quit smoking. There are a lot of e-cigs brands out there and some of them really work, while some don't, so it's best to check out electronic cigarette reviews before deciding on a brand. I wish there were e-cigs a few years back, then it would've been so much easier to quit. I went cold turkey and believe me, it was the most excruciating 6 weeks of my life, going through withdrawal symptoms are so not fun and I don't ever want to go through something like that ever again.
To those of you who want to quit, good luck!
A piece of advice, whenever you feel the urge to smoke, keep your mouth busy by nibbling on something, like a carrot or chew gum.
