Any tips to quit smoking ?

Hey everyone, 

Thought of creating a daily post where we all can hang around and talk just about anything - without having a specific topic to discuss. 
Think of this like the Watercooler at your office. 

Look forward to hearing from y'all :)

Is vaping a thing at your office too?

Wrote a non-smokers rant and with a fellow user's inputs, realized it should be drafted better as a discussion for the greater good.

1) Passive second-hand smoking is not only harmful but irritating too. There are designated smoking zones in offices but not all smokers exclusively stick to them given the numbers at the tea joints just outside the office buildings. Are smoking zones undersized? Chai n/a? Need wider space?

2) Outside office hours, smoking in public places causes the same problem. When you walk while smoking, the people behind you suffocate. If there're shared balconies or close windows, that smoke makes way into your neighbor's place. If they complain, consider at least changing your smoking place if shifting is not possible for either of you.

3) Use the best possible smell suppressing method, chewing gum or whatever during office hours if you don't have an isolated desk or you have to attend meetings. People feel embarrassed to bluntly call it out. Don't make them suffer.

4) If you have the resources, have you tried to consider quitting? There are Psychiatry/Neurology specialists for this. You, your loved ones and non-smokers all will be grateful.

I tried my best to humbly put the points across. It isn't intended to offend anyone.

I have observed many freshers joining seniors during smoking break for “networking”. is this a common thing and does it help in getting promos?

I don’t smoke but will consider it if there’s a benefit for my career.

Do you feel the urge to join folks during smoking break?

Picked up vaping to quit smoking and now I’m having trouble quitting vape. What’s an effective strategy you used to quit this nasty habit?

How did you quit vaping/smoking?

Growth Manager

I started smoking vapes back in 2019 when a friend of mine introduced me to Juul. I was instantly hooked and loved the flavours. I got so hooked that I used to smoke an average of ~5k puff vape every three days. The nicotine and juicy flavours was what made it too addictive and I always felt that it was much healthier than a cigarette. 

Last week, I fainted while climbing stairs and I felt like I couldn't breathe. I was thereafter rushed to the hospital by my roommates. 

Scans showed several lesions inside my lungs from the harmful chemicals inside. Initial diagnosis was popcorn lungs, and prognosis does not look promising. With no shot at full recovery, the treatment is going to be symptomatic only. 

Fucked my life and threw away the best years of my life. My parents are extremely disappointed in me and I feel like a dead man already. 

Don't SMOKE and Don't VAPE.

I might end up dying from Vaping. Here's my story

Here's hoping you live a long fruitful life. Thank you so much for sharing this! 

Smoking cigarettes was getting outdated in the west so they came up with vapes to entice the youth! In India, nowadays, smoking is seen as being "cool" and "powerful" (re: every "powerful" female character in Indian movies and TV shows smokes. Cigarettes are the ultimate FU, apparently). 

I would argue vapes and e - cigarettes are even more harmful than the conventional cigarettes simply because while we KNOW and have researched enough about the latter, we simply do not know enough about the former! One of my favourite youtubers even did a deep dive into it - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bAD3tHU6Gss&t=1176s&pp=ygUWaG93IHRvIGNvb2sgdGhhdCB2YXBlcw%3D%3D
