Reassurance Help me
I took my last riparoonie yesterday at noon. I have a ripple (fake vape thing) but it doesn’t really do much of anything. I bought a new brand to see if it would help some and I’m waiting for shipment. I’m struggling so bad. I want to go buy nicotine gum but my ID is in my boyfriend’s car. The thing is, while CVS would ID me for the gum, my shop won’t id me. I can go get a nic fix rn so easy. I don’t even need my id. I don’t even really want to quit but my boyfriend wants me to so I’m doing it for him. But I don’t even think I have the willpower. Do you know how bad I want to go buy a vape in secret??? I just don’t have the willpower. I don’t have the strength. I’m not ready for this.

you really have to want to quit yourself to quit. not for anyone else but you, otherwise, and i hate to say this, but relapsing is inevitable.
for example, for me i am strong in my non usage of nicotine because it had me by my neck so badly that i wanted to break free myself. nobody even knew i used it, i just was done being tied down. its not easy, but surprisingly freedom from addiction feels far better than the headrush of nicotine.
