Vaping has grown popularity over the years. Vaping is a term used when a person smokes or inhales vapor using an electronic cigarette. Though there are studies that show that vaping is a lot safer than smoking actual cigarettes, there are those who argue about its side effects as well.
Vaping liquids still contain nicotine and can still harm your body, but they also come in different levels. This can help a nicotine addicts lessen their nicotine intake gradually. Until such time that they are able to use vape liquids that no longer contain nicotine.
Vaping can help a person quit smoking weed especially during withdrawals. But this can potentially create another form of addiction. Nicotine addiction is also as difficult to overcome as weed addiction. Oftentimes, nicotine addiction is even more difficult to recover from than smoking weed because it is more accessible.
Though there’s a threat of having a new addiction, vaping is not necessarily a bad solution for this. Other people who quit smoking weed relapse because of withdrawals or boredom. Vaping can help with that. Vaping can keep a person’s mind off smoking weed especially if the person is bored.
Other people smoke because of a fixation. The urge to smoke weed may come from oral fixation. Vaping can help these urges and can overcome the fixation or the need to feel as if they are smoking something. This problem is more psychological than physical.
To reduce the risk of getting nicotine addiction, you may choose vaping liquids that are nicotine free. Do not worry about getting bored with vaping a nicotine free liquid, there are literally hundreds of flavors to choose, so you can switch it up whenever you get bored.
Withdrawals are tough and difficult to overcome, especially if smoking weed has become a habit. Choosing a new habit that is somewhat similar to smoking weed can be helpful. Though the feeling and the high is not there, smoking something like electronic cigarettes may ease your cravings.
There have also been studies showing that vape can potentially increase a person’s addiction to marijuana. The act of vaping can remind the person of smoking marijuana and this might increase the possibility of a relapse.
In the end, it simply boils down to the person himself. What type of person are you and how strong is your motivation for changing your life? What are the reasons that made you decide that you want to quit smoking weed?
These are simple but essential questions. If you truly are motivated to change and to quit smoking weed then there’s nothing that would push you to smoke weed again. The device would simply ease your withdrawals and make things easier for you.
But if you are forced into changing or you’re uncertain if you want to quit or not, you would definitely relapse. Keep in mind that vaping is not the key into quitting marijuana use, but it can be a tool to help make your rehabilitation process a bit easier.
