Anxious about quitting next week…

So as I said in my last story in this group, I’m going on a week long vacation with my family next week. No one in my family knows I vape or even that I used to smoke occasionally. I think my mom might suspect it though. Anyway, I don’t want them to find out (if they don’t already know), or if they do know, I don’t want to hear a sermon about it while on vacation, so my intent is to quit next week.

I tried to quit cold turkey yesterday, hoping I could get over the withdrawal symptoms before this weekend, with no luck. I was angry all day and couldn’t focus on anything.

Anyway, we all leave this Saturday. My thought is either that I can bring my vape but keep it in my pocket and only use it when no one is around, like in the bathroom and in bed. I’m not sure how that would work. I also bought some of those nicotine lozenges yesterday, so I may try using those. I haven’t opened them yet, so I’m not sure if there’s enough in there to last me the whole week, or how well they work.

Any tips?

Go for a walk with your vape and enjoy it.

@Raine If I bring the vape with me, how is that going to do me any good?

@RopinTexan when on vacation people relax and go for walks dont they? Tell them you're going for a walk and have a good ole puff.

@Raine Oh right. They’ll probably be like, “Can I go with you?” though. I think I’ll just stick with the mints…
