Not directed at OP, but to anyone trying to quit, here’s my story:
essentially quit both last march. I had been a cig smoker for over 30 years then switched to vaping. Don’t let anyone tell you vaping is a way to quit. It’s not. Or, at least- it’s not for everyone. If you’re looking to quit- quit. Don’t crutch yourself into continuing to smoke by lying to your self that vaping isn’t smoking.
It is.
Having said that. My experience is this:
I got on Wellbutrin and it didn’t take the first time. This would have been around January. Though while on it- I could see how it would work. I just didn’t stick with it.
2nd try was successful. And the reason how I know it’s successful, is that since I quit- I lost my best friend in July, and my 15 year old dog on Halloween night. Not once through the grief of either, did I turn to smokes or even think about them once.
If you’re looking to quit- you can quit. Whatever method works best is the correct method. But there will be no guarantee that at of them work work for you.
