6 and a half months ish
Made a new account. Lost my old badge. But I've made it enough time I'm comfortable not knowing. Posting to keep an idea of the timeframe. Too lazy for badge bot. Not too lazy to spam you with my thoughts tho. If you're lurking: start today. If you make it 8 hours that's great! 1 day, 1 week, even if you cave that's a net positive for your health. Try and try again. It's the last time that counts. You're in this sub for a reason. Highly recommend nicotine replacement therapy but it's not magic, you still need will power. I still vape and use pouches which some people frown upon (do not whine at me) but it's much less detrimental imo. Plan on giving that up eventually too. But for now I'm enjoying not smelling/tasting like an ashtray, no butts, no worry about cigarette burns/fires. Thanks and I wish you the best of luck
