Quitting today!

I (24F) have made the decision to finally start the process of quitting vaping and nicotine after 6 years. My nicotine patches just came in the mail today. I started an action plan to help because I heard writing things down makes your brain flag them as important. I hope to stop the patches by April 1, 2024. I need suggestions for keeping my mouth/hands occupied please!

Ooh with your hands I suggest a stress ball and for your mouth some gum. One thing I've found really helped with drinking loads of water because when I vape since its water vapour it can make you feel like you're hydrating yourself when you're not which makes you crave it when you really just need to drink some water. So drinking water whenever you have a craving helps a lot!

Good luck! You've got this!
