QUIT THE R.I.O.T WAY

Forget everything you’ve ever heard about switching from smoking!


Some people say to stay in and avoid going to the pub, so you don’t give in to your cravings.

Well, we say...FORGET THAT!


We’re telling you to do the complete opposite and make quitting part of your lifestyle. By following these 4 simple R.I.O.T steps, we guarantee you can kick the habit—don’t believe us? Try it for yourself!

We're not about following the same old script. Based on legit studies, we get that motivation is your secret weapon in the quitting game. Step one? Amp up that motivation, whether it's for your health, your bank account, or whatever lights your fire. 🔥

Knowing what sets off your smoking habit can be a total game-changer. Research has dropped some truth bombs about the things that trigger smoking, like booze, caffeine, stress, and, yes, even sex. It's time to face these triggers head-on. 👊🏻

Building your quitting superpowers is the name of the game. Studies have shown that believing in yourself is a key player in your success. So, cut down on the cigarettes and trade them in for some slick nicotine replacements when you feel like lighting up. 🚭

This final step ties it all together. Sharing your journey isn't just about you; it's about transforming lives, yours included. It's time to teach, inspire, and break free from the smoke cloud. 💪

How to Quit Smoking: Steps to Gradually Reduce Nicotine and Stop Vaping At Riot Rehab, we understand the challenges of breaking free from nicotine addiction. Whether you're trying to stop smoking or quit vaping, a gradual approach often proves to be the most sustainable and effective. Below, we outline practical steps to help you reduce your nicotine intake and work towards a healthier, nicotine-free lifestyle. 1. Set a Goal to Stay Smoke-Free for 3 Months Before you begin reducing nicotine, ensure you've been completely smoke-free for at least three months. This gives your body time to adjust to life without cigarettes and helps you build a strong foundation for the next steps. 2. Gradually Reduce Nicotine Strength Rather than quitting cold turkey, opt for a gradual reduction in nicotine strength. This method allows your body to adapt to lower levels over time, making it easier to eventually quit. Start Small: For instance, if you’re using 20mg nicotine, reduce it to 10mg for two weeks, then step down to 5mg for the following two weeks. Monitor Your Usage: If you notice yourself vaping more to compensate for the lower strength, consider mixing liquids to ease the transition (e.g., combine half 20mg with half 10mg to create a 15mg liquid). 3. Watch Your Liquid Consumption As you reduce nicotine strength, be mindful of your liquid consumption. It’s common to vape more frequently when lowering nicotine levels, but this can defeat the purpose. Track your usage and ensure you’re reducing both the strength and the total amount of liquid consumed. 4. Increase Breaks Between Vaping Spacing out your vaping sessions can significantly reduce nicotine dependence. Gradually extend the time between sessions to cut back on your reliance. Practical Steps: Start by leaving your vape in another room for an hour or more. Challenge Yourself: When running errands or at work, leave your vape at home or in the car for longer stretches. Build Momentum: Gradually increase these breaks every day. 5. Combine Methods for Greater Success You don’t have to rely on just one strategy. By reducing nicotine strength and increasing breaks simultaneously, you’ll accelerate your journey towards quitting. This dual approach helps you lower your physical and psychological dependence on vaping. 6. Keep Track of Your Progress Document your weekly nicotine strength, liquid consumption, and frequency of vaping. This habit will help you stay accountable and ensure you’re steadily moving towards your goal. 7. Set a Quit Date Once You’ve Reduced Nicotine When you’ve reduced your nicotine to a very low level, it’s time to set a quit date. With your dependence already diminished, taking the final step becomes far more achievable. 8. Prepare for Setbacks It’s natural to experience setbacks, but don’t let them derail your progress. If you relapse, be kind to yourself and set a new quit date. Having a backup vape with zero or very low nicotine can help reduce the temptation to fully revert. 9. The Final Goal: Total Freedom from Nicotine Breaking free from nicotine is a journey, not a sprint. Celebrate your milestones, no matter how small, and remind yourself of the long-term benefits of a nicotine-free life. With persistence and a solid plan, you can achieve total freedom from smoking and vaping. At Riot Rehab, we’re here to support you every step of the way. Remember, every small victory is a step closer to a healthier, happier you.
