@KNOWITALL Ok. I don’t have anything serious to add about vaping as I’ve never smoked anything but second-hand cigarettes, camp fires, fireplaces, fireworks smoke… and the smokers I’ve known who have quit didn’t use vapors. I’ve seen Nicorette gum and patches sort of stand in, but it was expensive stuff and I don’t remember it leading to quitting. The cases of successful quitting I’ve seen (for stress-smokers) have been just habit-breaking. I get the sense an element of what worked was feeling a different type of stress (or maybe just being really conscious of the negative) about smoking itself (and not being shamed by others for smoking). The book The Habit Loop comes to mind to suggest.
