But how many actually follow through?
That's the thing about quitting you kind of have to want to.
Some will still want to quit, but the extra steps might have the opposite effect of just not being able to stick to those self-inflicted constraints. I know all too well how it won't happen until you actually want to quit, I've since quit as well, but I know it wouldn't have worked for me, I'd have abandoned this plan in a matter of days, not so compatible with my usual ADHD scatterbrain. Too much organization.
Vapes, going down from 8mg to 0mg over a while, then eventually just having the habit left to drop, was what worked for me. YMMV, of course.
