5 reasons to quit vaping


 It has been over 3 years since I have had an actual cigarette.  While I am very proud of that, I have been vaping and in some ways, that's just as bad.  It's time to give that up.  I need to be healthier as I embark on a new journey in life.  Here are some of my reasons for doing so:

1.  Cost

Vaping isn't cheap.  With my monthly budget soon to be less than half of what it is now, I simply cannot afford it anymore.  Even though I enjoy it, it's one of those things that I need to find something else to enjoy in its place that is cheaper or even free!  

2.  Being able to breathe better

I find that my breathing is much more labored than it used to be because of this addiction.  With spring here now, I want to be able to take a deep breath without coughing.  Hell, I want to be able to sit still without coughing.  I don't think that's too much to ask.

3.  Better circulation

All four of my limbs are suffering from poor circulation and vaping is not helping that.  I want to get my heart healthier and increase my blood flow.  Hoping that quitting vaping will motivate me to exercise and get my arms and legs feeling better.  They are asleep almost all of the time these days and I don't like how that feels.

4.  Changing my routine

So much of my routine revolves around vaping.  It's the first thing I do in the morning after I get my coffee started and it just goes down hill from there.  I set my daily routine around it, both at work and at home and I want to find other ways to spend my time.  I think it will help my efficiency and productivity, especially at work.

5.  Prove that I can do it

I simply need to show to myself, and no one else, that I can do this.  I can take back control of my life from this addiction.  It's important for me, especially at this age, to be able to conquer this.  It will make me feel much better about myself and will hopefully motivate other changes in my life.
