Vape Nation: Vaping Is Bad, Kids The Surgeon General declared youth e-cigarette use to be an epidemic, but many vaping communities online downplay the risks. What does the evidence show? https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/vape-nation-vaping-is-bad-kids/ EZPZ

Nope

That sounds like a great plan ..lol.. The secret is Never sticking anything in your mouth and setting fire to it ...Whalla....one neat quit .!!!!........

NOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NOPE

No doubt that Vaping is bad and the science is there to prove that fact. What is also disturbing is the marketing behind it. Cigarettes long ago were no longer allowed to be advertised, however that is not true for vaping since there are televised commercials. This also should be addressed because it only reinforces the idea that vaping is a safe alternative (which is not true). I am afraid so many others will be lost to nicotine at this point!!!

@jillar My balcony is like a tiny corner where I thought I was safe from all the world. The only other reason I do go out to my balcony is to hang washed clothes. So from next week there is no other reason to go out to my balcony.

Ankush, stop smoking on your balcony. Make having to go out for a smoke so difficult that it's not worth the trouble. You will be quit next week anyway so by not smoking on your balcony you'll be able to go out there next week hopefully without craving. Trust me when I tell you it works...

Nice to know you're not turning to a smoke. Hang in there. If you are experiencing angst due to your current situation, you could try punching and kicking something. Maybe not the right thing to suggest, but take up Boxing or something similar. Great way to get angst out, and once the angst is gone, great way to stay fit and build confidence as well.

@Doreensfree I was thinking of putting as many post-its I could all over my room that say "Never take another puff". I could put on the balcony door, one at my study table in the room, one on shelf where I store my stash and paraphernalia, one on the mirror, some on the walls, a couple on my cupboards.

The or will work for that too lol

I celebrate EVERYDAY. Breathing . Thanks everyone and now a smoke free hubby!!!

Picked up my new car today

Spot on! Drink plenty of water...It is one of the best things you can do for yourself.

A alter your balcony ...move ashtrays ....put nice plants out there ....make it look totally different ...so it doesn't say ..Smoke here .!!!! This is what I would do ...you can buy your plants with all the money you save ...!!!!

That is awesome, desparate1. Congratulations on 2 weeks smoke free!

I love this Tammie. It’s actually enlightening listening to our minds trying to tell us something we always deadened it with cigs buts it’s actually something to be heard. Every day is a learning day

Oh Linda that made me chuckle. I’m afraid I may be forced to drink the flower water in case it tasted sweet and delicious!! jo and boo, you’re both spot on. I’ve been drinking from a 2litre bottle (4pints for those American lovelies) slowly through the working day so it’s not thirst either. I also (and this is not like me at all) and been getting up early for a short bounce on the trampoline and a fruit and yoghurt breakfast. Linda, 5lbs sounds excellent. Weigh in on April 30th?

Loved these guys and Suze but just discovered a kick arse 'blues' version of one of there biggest hits.... The original The Blues version....

P & P, I don't know if you celebrate Easter and the Easter Bunny but I can tell you I am a jelly bean junkie. I only eat them this time of year. I also like to get the peeps and let them get stale and hard. I love to eat them that way. I found the perfect way to get rid of them. Do you think we could use them this way and not go crazy seeing them like this? lol.

@Linda Thomas Thank you for your words of encouragement. Its nice that you have remained smoke free for so long. I'm hoping I can pull off my quit when the day comes which is now 2nd April next week. I preponed my quit day from 7th April to 2nd. I realized there was no point in keeping the quit date so far ahead since I am more mentally prepared now. Just need to stock up my fridge with all the needed food and juices to help me pull through. I am easing into getting rid of stash and paraphernalia as well. I threw away a couple of empty cigarette boxes, one matchbox, a very old e-cig and liquid which I had tried a few years back and then immediately stopped as they were horrible, they made my ears so itchy. NRT should be treated at the same level as a health risk as cigarettes and nicotine.
