To be honest, it was probably an overreaction to what was going on, but yeah, basically cold turkey. I stopped putting salt on stuff, but will go back now but less than I used to. I do tend to put a lot of salt on stuff, so that’s probably something I should sort anyway. I think I got a bit liberal after flirting with keto.

I’d already been tapering off of nicotine, and was vaping something in the range of 1-3mg, whereas those disposables are supposed to be 20mg for reference. I probably will vape again when drinking, but dropping the daily habit is a step towards quitting.

Caffeine’s been the hardest. I’ve had caffeine headaches for days. I don’t remember going a day without it, and would drink somewhere in the range of 2 - 4 coffees/cokes a day, sometimes a 2ltr bottle to myself. I’ve realised I relied on it to feel motivated and I’m kind of a different person without it. It’s weird. Cutting it out has reduced my anxiety and over thinking though, so I think I’m going to keep cutting it out.
