3 months nicotine free today!

Man what a journey. It has absolutely not been easy for me, but today marks me hitting the 3 month point of no nicotine. I was smoking nicotine for roughly 10-11 years and only recently turned 25. Like many others it went from hookahs to shit $10 e cigs, to box mods, which is what I've been hooked on for the last 9 years. I quit cold turkey last year unwillingly, and unsurprisingly went back to it after a couple of months. But this time I decided to do it myself, I've regretted it many times during all of this, but overall it is what's best. I have a hard time feeling proud of myself, and never really had people to tell me that they're proud of me either until more recently, but I feel silly fishing for "I'm proud of you" from my few loved ones. So I guess I'm here instead, forcing myself to pat myself on the back to a group of people who get the struggle.

Anyways, in case you guys haven't heard it and you need it, I'm fucking proud of you for quitting, and you're strong as hell, you've got this. 💜
