How to Quit Vaping (Without Losing Your Mind!)

SIMON, US - April 14, 2025

Share:

If I am honest, quitting smoking was one of the best days of my life. Choosing to blow clouds of vapor knowing that I was, at the same time, reducing my chances of cancer, was a proud day. After smoking for so many years, choosing to vape in the early 2010's was a revelation. Now, I feel like Neo in the Matrix, maybe I should have chosen the blue pill!

 

In fairness, I probably would have been worse off if I had continued smoking traditional cigarettes. Perhaps I may have even followed my late father to an early grave. Nonetheless, vaping also caused me problems. My over-reliance on nicotine and satisfaction for blowing huge clouds of vapor into my living room perhaps superseded my addiction to cigarettes. I thought it would never end, as if vaping had become part of the new world. I saw the horrific stories of kids on the news that over-indulged and ended up hospitalised. I knew I needed to do something. Then, I found nicotine pouches.

Why Quitting Vaping is So Hard

There are all the cliches about repetitive movement with the hands, the action of bringing hand to mouth. There is also the information about social dynamics and losing the social element of being out having a puff. I have to be completely honest and say after more than twenty attempts to quit vaping, none of these were a factor. The biggest factor for me was simple: I need nicotine.

 

I have been down the online rabbit holes so many times, fastidiously trying to find a reason to quit vaping. I have spent hours on the toilet reading blogs, and everything else trying to scaremonger my attention to quit. Nothing worked. Then, with the brilliance of Ai I began to learn more about nicotine than I ever had before. Nicotine is not dangerous. It is addictive yes, but the substance itself is not known to cause any health complications. Conversely, it is methods used to consume nicotine which have harmful effects on humans. Armed with this knowledge it made me chill out a little. I am addicted to nicotine. So what? I am probably addicted to McDonalds and Pornhub too (don't tell my wife!)

How to Quit Vaping with The Miracle Product

The first thing that the world wants to tell you when you have an addiction to something is you have a problem. The whole vaping situation has made me think a lot about the choices we make as adults. Some people are addicted to coffee, caffeine is addictive. Some people are addicted to sugar, sugar is addictive. Some alcohol, some drugs, some food. I mean everyone has a vice, something they like doing more than they do other things. Yet the word addiction has such negative connotations because of how the word is framed in modern day society.

 

Reality is. You can do what you want.

 

There is nothing that I have been able to find that points to nicotine being harmful to your health. Sure, there is the relaxation, sometimes the quickening of a heartbeat, and other fun bits. But, isn't that why we drink coffee, or Red Bull, or have a beer? Perhaps the biggest challenge most face is accepting we like products that alter the way we feel. The same could be said with clothes. Yet nobody tells my wife that spending all our money online shopping for new shoes is harmful to her health - its harmful to mine though!

The First Nicotine Pouch That Saved Me

Before I go on to explain how nicotine pouches changed my life I want to share with you the very first pouch I bought. After my hours of research online again after finishing a night shift I came across nicotine warehouse. Perhaps my redundant searches of the same terms rewarded me with this newfound acquisition out of pity. Either way, it saved my life, my sanity, and this particular pouch would become my right hand man for the next few months.

Nicotine Pouches As a Transitional Tool

Much has been said about the need to quit vaping; as much as was said to start vaping and quit smoking! But, while there is an incessant narrative to quit vaping, there is a lack of alternative information. I speak from first-hand experience having used nicotine pouches as a viable alternative to vaping. In some regards, perhaps I am a self-proclaimed success story.

 

Whichever way you look at it, nicotine pouches are a viable alternative for those wanting to quit vaping. From my research, I came to understand the correlations between traditional Swedish snus, and the modern-day nicotine pouches. Snus has been widely used in Nordic countries as a form of nicotine consumption. The only difference between nicotine pouches and snus is that the latter contains tobacco. As such, the tobacco variations are, in fact, illegal in most countries, including America. However, nicotine pouches are not. So why is nobody talking about them?

 

Yes, there is Zyn, but Zyn has converted as many people from vaping as McDonalds has vegans. The EU Zyn, however, has more of a punch and more in line with what a real vaping afficiando would expect from a nicotine hit. The problem with most of the pouches I subsequently went on to find domestically, is they do not quite hit the spot. In Europe, however, things are different. I have found brands on Nicotine Warehouse with enough strength to subdue a Grizzly. 

The Ins & Outs of Using Nicotine Pouches

I admit, I probably went a little overboard using the super strong CUBA as a first brand. But, with the limited amount of education on these little wonder babies, it was difficult to know where to start on my first order. If you are new to nicotine pouches you are probably wondering the same, where to start. Well, as someone that may well have tried over 20 brands and 75 different pouch flavours and strengths, I am all ears (or mouth in this instance!) 

 

Choosing the right nicotine pouches is essential when it comes to transitioning over from vapes. And, don't get me wrong, you will probably still find yourself blowing a cloud of vapor from your poor lungs every now and then at the start. But, build confidence in nicotine pouches throughout the weeks and your lungs will thank you, trust me. I am now a happily reformed nicotine pouch advocate, out from the clutches of vaping. And, my lungs have never been better. As much as I was in denial that vaping was safe, social media, news, and my own lungs forced me to consider again. Do the right thing, make a change!

So What Are The Best Brands for Beginners

Across America we have several brands that are sold domestically. I have found, however, that virtually none of these brands are strong enough for real heavy vapers. Consequently, it is a bit of a double edged sword in that nicotine pouches can certainly help vapers, but there is no one size fits all. With the myriad of different flavors and strengths most people checking out pouches wouldn't even know where to start. So, you pick up a can with your groceries, try them and hope for the best. For most people they fail to pick up something strong enough, with enough flavor, or best replicates the sensations associated with their typical vape product. The result: Back to vaping.

 

So, I made a little infograph for those of you that really want to know how to quit vaping.

 

 

Quit Vaping Today and Join the Revolution

Goes without saying that I am an advocate, and somewhat of a procurer of nicotine pouches these days. It is difficult to even explain what a difference these little discreet babies have made in my life. I am able to walk up and down the stairs without having an asthma attack, play with the kids, and have even started long walks again. I had no idea vaping would have caused the cardiovascular issues I experienced personally. I wish I did. But, for a product that has no known issues, has been used in this form for over half a century, I feel confident I have made a longevity decision.

 

Give it a go, you won't look back!
