Week 3 19th of January 2026 - (Did Quit Smoking)

[P2PLeon]

It will be 10 weeks until my Birthday since Monday of this week.

Also I have changed the title of this thread as I am now starting my journey yet again.

 

[Bliss Doubt]

Keep trying Leon, keep posting. You have friends who are pulling for you to succeed. It's been a long journey for you, but every quit counts.

 

[P2PLeon]

Thanks for the support, although it does help, I think I may need it more often.

Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one posting stuff.

 

[Bliss Doubt]

I'm sorry Leon. People will find a forum because they did a generic search for information about vaping. Can it help me stop smoking? Is it bad for my health? Etc.

You have something over VU and ECF, in that you're in the UK, so you have a special place.

You need more forum content. I'll start a new thread.

I am now on day 7 again, and after today, I will have gone a week without.

 

[P2PLeon]

Today I am on day 12 of my Quit.

I look forward to my biweekly account, which means I will have completed 2 weeks by Thursday midnight, going into Friday Morning.

 

[P2PLeon]

I've just reached a week, and I am now grateful for any future appraisals.

 

[P2PLeon]

Day 11 and I fancied a cigarette last night, but it was only a thought.

I will continue to vape until I may fail and start again.

So touch wood that I do not.

 

[P2PLeon]

Completed my birthday without smoking.

Yet did have a few between 12:00 and 01:00 AM, as this would be the End of the 5th of October, going into the 6th of October. If no daylight time existed.

 

[P2PLeon]

It's now Saturday and I am still coughing yet not as much as I would have if I was still smoking .

 

[P2PLeon]

A week done so far again, and mostly my fault.

 

[P2PLeon]

Will be 3 weeks Tonight since touching the dreaded Cancer Sticks.

 

[Jimi]

Keep goin my friend, we all know you can do it

 

[P2PLeon]

I had 2 on Thursday and 2 on Saturday, so only 4 in the space of 72 hours.

It is only a minor setback, but I am still winning, as I have had only about 3-4 packets in the last 6 months.

 

[P2PLeon]

Had four last night, so finished at 1 AM.

I will change my banner later tonight or Tomorrow.
So my new quit date is the 3rd of November 2025 @ 1 AM

 

[P2PLeon]

It seems my luck has changed, and now I have been vaping for 3 weeks, and soon a month.

I do not go anywhere without my vape, even to the toilet.

 

[P2PLeon]

I lasted but just over an hour after my last post.

Stupid me, and I would have done a month about now.

Although I did only smoke a packet, compared to when I wasn't vaping, I would have done a packet each day.

I did later Quit yet again at a reasonable time period of 12 AM on the 28th of November 2025.

 

[P2PLeon]

Alas, it will soon be 3 weeks since Quitting again.

 

[P2PLeon]

Only today to get over and then 3 weeks will be done and dusted.

Over the past 9 months, I think I have only had a possible 20 packets in total.

I have done more weeks this year than in any other year.

Usually, it would only be for a few days or two weeks, before I returned to smoking full-time.

I just have to get over the hump.

 

[P2PLeon]

3 Weeks have passed since Quitting for the umpteenth time.
