I swear every time I buy a pack that it will be my last…get some money tomorrow and I sure hope I can stop tomorrow…sounds like if I was so disgusted that I would quit today? I know I know…
and no I don’t want to vape…makes me cough too much.

It took me a lot of times of saying i was gonna quit before i actually quit. It’s hard and can be a long process. Good luck with it @jukebox.

It’s a struggle,
I’ve had days that I was done and was certain just go cold turkey was completely done with it.
Next thing you know I somehow am magical drawn to outside my house and someone put a cigarette in my hand. 
I’ll get it one day for sure I know I have the willpower, just need to get real about it, really real about quitting.
Need to keep conscious about doing so as well.
Don’t vape either, just don’t get the same needs from it that cigarettes supply.
Anyways good luck with it jukebox, i know you/we can do it.

You’ll be a smoker forever unless you change something.
Talk to the guy at the vape shop about different pg/vg ratio liquids until you find a ratio that doesn’t make you cough.
Also coughing is common at the beginning as you’ve stopped smoking and your lungs are clearing themselves out I think.
When I started vaping, I coughed for the first weeks.
If I relapse and smoke cigarettes for a while, I’ll cough for the first few days of vaping again. Maybe you should give it another try, and try to find a nicotine ratio that doesn’t make you cough, but doesn’t make you crave more either.
And if you want to stop smoking… You’ll need to stop buying packs. At least make an effort not to.

thanks everyone…I have two cigarettes left and I plan on smoking them within the hour…I talk a big game while I have them…I will post in a couple of hours how I am feeling…

I know it’s so hard, but the fight is worth it. Take it one hour at a time. YOU CAN DO IT!
I always say to my pdoc that I’m going to try to quit smoking and he always says now might not be the right time. Lol one day I will.

Instead of vaping you could try the patch or the gum.
I still smoke and vape but I also use the gum for if I’m gonna be somewhere I can’t smoke.

The patch or gum is a good idea. I’m allergic to the patch but can tell you the gum is good.
