today I struggled with not letting my emotions take over me. I've been doing good at work lately but today pushed me harder and I almost buckled. my boyfriend wants me to quit vaping but it's the only thing that's helping me cope with the stress of it all while I'm at work.

      @dodge but if you want to quit and still have the hand to mouth movement that most people are addicted to , try ripple, it’s an amazing brand that sells flavored vapes but they have no nicotine whatsoever, i’ve been trying them recently and they’ve removed the addiction to the hand to mouth movement

      i vape and honestly i feel you, i’ve been trying to get into a different place in life so i won’t feel the need to vape but i always do. the one thing i’d suggest for stress is weighted stuffed animals and “ memory dough” so you don’t pick your hands or fidget too hard that it over stimulates ( memory dough is a type of slime but it really just feels like a better playdough and not to mention it’s non sticky and feels like a clay ). I also did have an ex that was so uncomfortable with me vaping that he talked about it every day and how i was going to “ die in a week” ( really hope your situation isn’t that severe) but the best you can do for people like that is to give them closure and alert them that you make your own choices

          @dodge thats actually an amazing idea for when I actually commit to quitting, thank you so much! And it's not that severe he's just being playful about it, I'm just sensitive lol. 🙌

          @dodge or if you want a different kinda “ buzz” try THC cartridges, when my vapes die i just go for my cart, since it’s the same hand to mouth movement and it genuinely releases stress for me ( as it may not work for everyone , it may work for some people )!
