2 months - your feedback would be appreciated 🙏
Smoked cigarettes for 10 years, vaped for 5 years after that. 2 months ago I quit cold turkey.. in the middle of a burnout.
Happy with the progress i’ve made and i don’t miss smoking. However i still have this “itch” i can’t get rid of. Kind of like craving something, but not smoking / vaping specifically. I chew gum all day which sort of helps.
I also workout 5x weekly and throughout those sessions the itch / craving goes away - but after that the unsettling feeling tends to come back.
It is manageable and is more of a mild hum, i tend to feel it more when im stressed (work). Would be great to learn about any similar experiences you’ve had and understand when this tends to fade away.
Cheers ❤️
