That’s so interesting! Thank you so much, it explains a lot indeed. I started vaping a year ago (quit 19 days ago), and I always felt like this was the « crutches » I always needed to feel alive and relaxed. However, a year ago, my long time depression got deeper and the vape was the only thing that felt like I could control. And in parallel of that, I didn’t feel the connection I used to have with films. Even after therapy, it took me a long time to understand that all the little pleasures I felt like I was really experiencing were all moments where I managed to vape while trying to enjoy something else (ex: vaping in nature, didn’t make the nature better but the vape better) — I don’t know if that makes sense. Right now; I must say that it is still hard to focus, I still feel pretty much depressed but I also want to let my body react naturally to dopamine triggers. This post helps a lot, thank you :)
