When you had previously failed to give up smoking when you went cold turkey, you are not alone, as up to 97% of people using this method to quit smoking fail. To increase your chances of successfully quitting smoking, you will want to use a form of nicotine replacement therapy, and vaping is an excellent option to consider. It can help you control your nicotine addiction, slowly wean yourself off your reliance on it, and prevent you from inhaling the thousands of toxic chemicals in cigarette smoke. Below are some tips to help you transition from smoking to vaping and ensure it is an enjoyable experience for you that can make it easier when you quit smoking.
Choose A Suitable Vaping Device
You will first need to decide which type of vaping device is best for your needs. There are various options available, and it is worth visiting your local specialist vaping store and speaking to the salesperson about the multiple options available. You will not want to invest too much money when starting, and it is best to get a starter kit to ensure you are happy with vaping before investing in a more expensive device. Once you have selected your preferred vaping device, you will need to stock up on the consumables you will use.
Stock Up On Accessories
You may need accessories for your chosen vaping device, such as replacement coils or atomisers, a spare battery, and a battery charger. You will want to ensure that you are never in a position where you do not have what you need to vape and are tempted to smoke again due to your cravings. Ensure you have everything needed to vape happily for a month or so, and you can help ensure you have what you need to carry on vaping and not be tempted back to smoking.
Choosing Your Vape Juice
Another vital factor to consider is the vape juice you will use in your device, which can help enhance your vaping experience and make it much more enjoyable. There are various flavours of e-liquid available, with six primary flavour categories which are as follows:
- Drink Flavours
- Tobacco Flavours
- Menthol Flavours
- Fruit Flavours
- Dessert Flavours
- Candy Flavours
You will also need to consider the nicotine strength of the vape juice you use, and you must get the dose correct. If your e-liquid is too strong, it can make you feel dizzy and nauseous and ruin the vaping experience. However, if the e-liquid is not strong enough, you will most likely struggle to control your cravings for a cigarette.
Getting Ready To Vape
Now that you have chosen your vaping device, accessories, and e-liquids sorted, you can get ready to start vaping and say goodbye to smoking cigarettes for good. You will want to select your last day as a smoker, and before you go to bed, ensure you get rid of all your cigarettes, ashtrays, and other temptations which may draw you back to smoking. You can wake up the following day, start using your chosen vaping device, and give yourself an excellent chance of never smoking another cigarette again.
