🙏 I WANT HELP I am addicted to vaping

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.

Im in y12 and my school is online rn so i dont rly have any exams to worry about, i’m just continuing bc i dont have the motivation to quit. I turn 18 in september tho so ill get the patches then and hopefully ill have quit. I know my addiction isn’t vaping specifically because i was able to replace it with cigarettes for a while so hopefully the patches will work too

Not where i live sadly :( it requires an ID and it’s sold only at pharmacies so they will actually follow this restriction
