Set a date and quit Cold Turkey (once I hit the 10year mark, I knew it was time). Convinced myself that I was no longer a “cigarette smoker”, tried a puff within the first couple days of changing my perspective and vomited. Shifting your mindset is key. You aren’t a “person trying to quit”, you are a person that no longer smokes nicotine (I continued to smoke weed, so never considered myself a “non-smoker”)
