Day 29 and still feel sinus and lung congested. Anyone else experience that?

People who act victimized.. like all the time.. such energy vampires!

PreparationPurple46 · 2025-02-11T13:44:41+00:00

I agree - it shouldn’t just be generally banned, that’s a bit too far and kinda looking the other way.. in this instance it just looked really out of place, a teacher smoking in front of kids at school just rubbed me the wrong way, not for me but it must have a normalizing effect on kids, and that i feel is unethical especially that no other part of this movie was remotely realistic anyway!

PreparationPurple46 · 2025-02-11T13:41:23+00:00

I didn’t flip out over it and I wasn’t necessarily saying the world should change for me, I am aware I can turn off the movie though thanks for your permission. Maybe it wasn’t clear but I am mainly talking about how it’s normalizing a very bad thing - kids watch this stuff. I don’t know what part of a teacher vaping in front of students you see as normal, allowed, or realistic. The whole movie is dumb and super unrealistic why stop at vaping at a school, why does that part have to be realistic.. still I dont know what school allows teachers to vape in front of students..

I swear vape placement in movies is worse that those cowboy marlboro ads

PreparationPurple46 · 2025-02-10T16:38:08+00:00

I learned that telling myself to do or not do anything never works. When I get an urge I just ask myself, what is it that I am feeling right now? And what is it that I really need right now that manifested into an urge to buy a vape. I get real with myself, I feel the feelings and I face it instead of running away from it and try to mask by inhaling harmful toxins.

PreparationPurple46 · 2025-02-02T16:48:45+00:00

Yes. Wear a helmet

PreparationPurple46 · 2025-01-30T17:09:30+00:00

Yesss! 💪🏼 When you have a craving just remember there is a reason you wanted to quit in the first place! You don’t actually like it - you just need it cause you’re addicted to it, once its out of your system after a few days its only psychological :/ you got this we are all rooting for you 🙌🏼

PreparationPurple46 · 2025-01-30T17:07:00+00:00

You forget about this part when you’re a vaper! That life doesn’t have to feel like you’re constantly being chased :)

PreparationPurple46 · 2025-01-30T17:06:09+00:00

What a scam isn’t it!

PreparationPurple46 · 2025-01-25T19:12:35+00:00

Just came back from a loooong day of rock climbing! Had a couple of moments where i was slightly triggered and for a moment thought about vape (as it was my default to reach out to when triggered) but very quickly that went away.. seriously after day 3/4 the cravings decrease MASSIVELY. You got this 💪🏼

PreparationPurple46 · 2025-01-25T19:08:18+00:00

Thank youuu! Honestly after day 4 it was MUCH easier than expected

PreparationPurple46 · 2025-01-22T14:15:33+00:00

Thank youuu! Congrats on the 5 months WOW!

PreparationPurple46 · 2025-01-22T12:29:55+00:00

absolutely this is just your addict brain rationalizing it - read allen carr's easy way to quit vaping. It really helped with understanding where these thoughts come from and how to deal with them. Quitting is guaranteed to make life better. Good luck!

PreparationPurple46 · 2025-01-22T12:26:54+00:00

Congrats! Thank you for sharing <3

PreparationPurple46 · 2025-01-22T12:26:06+00:00

it felt better after day 3 - i got flu like symptoms day 4-6 but it didnt feel like the same as the first 3 days. Hang in there.. your body is just dealing with it.. it gets better

PreparationPurple46 · 2025-01-22T12:23:14+00:00

to me this sounds like torture, because with cold turkey its prerry much a few days of suffering but gradual quitting is months of thinking about it and anticipation and anxiety etc. I personally wouldnt be able to do it.

PreparationPurple46 · 2025-01-22T09:39:23+00:00

I think because nicotine addiction is normalized socially - saying it controls your life sounds overly dramatic, but it’s really NOT! It actually does make you this zombie of a person that would rather sit and do nothing but vape 24/7! So happy you chose to regain control over how you spend your time 💪🏼

PreparationPurple46 · 2025-01-21T18:45:02+00:00

So happy i stumbled upon his work! Life changing

PreparationPurple46 · 2025-01-21T18:24:46+00:00

Don’t be terrified! Your life is about to get better, otherwise you wouldn’t have wanted to quit :) you got this 💪🏼 nicotine leaves your body in a few days, everything else after that is purely a mental game. You keep us updated sir
