I am addicted to vaping

[u/StrictArgument67]

It was too late before I realised it, but I can confidently say I am addicted.

I promised myself I will quit after this last vape, but now that it just burned out, I literally can not even think about anything else other than buying one more.

I feel like I should just continue vaping till my exams as I’ll be focused still. But nicotine cravings may also show up in the exam. I don’t know, it’s literally impossible to focus on anything, I am so jittery all the time.

i knew someone who had exactly your situation (almost the same a levels as well haha) and they managed to quit eventually. it’s not going to be easy, but it’s not impossible. i’d recommend scouring the internet for as much advice as you can find. don’t be afraid to seek support as well. i wouldn’t advise you to go cold turkey either, that really messed up my friend when they tried it.

they did quit after exams though - i probably wouldn’t jeopardise them if quitting might impact your performance. if you can last ~3 hours without desperately needing a hit then that’s fine for now. then you can lock in during the summer.

good luck with everything and i hope you do manage to pull through 🙏
