But I’m encouraged that I really don’t miss my companions of more than 50 years. It’s a better start than I’d anticipated.
That’s because drug addiction is a terrible companion. You feed the addiction with the vape, so it becomes obvious that smoking wasn’t a pleasant pastime. It’s a horrible drug addiction that kills you early and makes you smell awful, but addicts rationalize their behavior. Good luck getting free. I did about 20 years ago with the help of an anti-depressant, after failing so many times on my own.
