I quit smoking some 15 years ago (after some 10 years of smoking) for about 3-4 years and then learned of e-cigarettes (pre-July) and, intrigued, got one, then, cautious of relapsing filled the cartridges with pure, unscented glycerin. In 2 weeks I was back to smoking real cigarettes at the good ole pack-a-day rate.
Took another 5 years to quit again. This time for good.
I have no idea what was the mechanism second time, but I “just quit”. Cold turkey. I have zero interest in even one drag now.
I sometimes would take a friend’s cigarette and hold it in my mouth, pretend-smoking, inhaling and exhaling, making all those sweet smoking lip maneuvers, as if I am making rings or pushing smoke through my nostrils. No desire to light it at all
