Stoptober 2022

The annual national stop-smoking campaign is about to come, the NHS Stoptober can be rather helpful on your way to quitting smoking. Do you want to quit smoking? The national October stop-smoking campaign awaits, come and join in!

Stoptober is a national stop-smoking campaign initiated by PHE(Public Health England) to encourage smokers to stop smoking for 28 days during the month of October. It has been already 10 years since the first Stoptober was implemented in 2012, hence this year 2022 is the tenth Stoptober. The campaign rests on the figures and evidence that if you abstain from smoking for 28 days, then you are five times more likely to quit smoking for good. And the Stoptober campaign adopted a more positive approach to messaging rather than focusing on the harms of smoking, it claims that “join the 28-day quitting challenge” rather than “quit now”, consequently, it is more like a social movement.

Interestingly, the Stoptober campaign uses three psychological principles, “socialize”, “SMART goals: specific, measurable, attainable, realistic and time-sensitive ”, and “use motivational theory to change behaviour”. The outcome is obvious – Public Health England claimed that since the launch of Stoptober in 2012, there have been 2 million quit attempts in England. Stoptober begins on 1 October and there’s never been a better time to quit smoking!

What can you choose to help you quit smoking for Stoptober?

As we know, it is the nicotine in cigarettes that makes smokers addicted, and there are also social reasons that make quitting smoking difficult. Here are some methods that may help you stop smoking during Stoptober.

Completely abstinent from smoking

It is the best-advised way by healthcare professionals, some smokers might completely cut out cigarettes without any nicotine alternatives. This is a rather hardcore method to quit smoking, and it takes willpower but it is the least harmless way to do it. The good news is that there are many ways the NHS can help you quit smoking in Stoptober. The Stoptober app (available on the App Store and Google Play) can show you how much money you’re saving, you can also subscribe to get a daily notification to raise your motivation. You can also join the quit smoking community to get more personal support.

Nicotine alternatives

The most common nicotine alternatives you can find in the market are nicotine patches and nicotine gum. Nicotine patches are used on your skin – they release nicotine and are absorbed through the skin, and then nicotine will go through your vessels to your brain. This process may take some time but will help to kill cravings. However, the nicotine patches can not replicate the inhale of smoking which still fails to satisfy some smokers.

Nicotine gum releases nicotine by the saliva and is absorbed by the body via the gum. And nicotine gum seems more prevalent among smokers compared to nicotine patches because you can distract your focus while chewing the gum.

Use e-cigarettes to quit smoking

E-cigarette is also known as vape, vaping is another great way to deliver nicotine to your body and research showed that vaping is 95% less harmful than smoking. What’s more, vaping also can replicate the act of smoking – inhale the vapour and puff out. There are so many different types of vape products to choose from, but today I would like to mention some vapes that are most helpful for smokers to quit smoking.

Well, if you never vaped before, I would recommend disposable vapes since they won’t cost too much and they can replicate the act of smoking, offering a tight MTL vaping experience, and the small amount of vapour is also similar to smoking. What’s more, disposable vapes are pre-filled with 20mg nic salt e-liquid which can deliver nicotine to your body fast and efficiently, satisfying your nicotine cravings in only some minutes.

If you vaped before, and want to learn more about it, a refillable pod vape kit is highly recommended because it can save you much money in a long time of use. And a refillable pod vape kit is often used with a 10ml nic salt e-liquid, they are a cost-effective choice.

The above-mentioned vapes both are easy to use and kill nicotine cravings fast. In order to boost the event and cater to smokers’ demands, we’ve specially prepared a big discount event for this Stoptober to help smokers quit smoking.

How to make a switch from smoking to vaping?

Vaping is becoming more and more popular as time goes by, there is more and more new blood surging into the world of vaping. All you need to know is that vaping is much less harmful than smoking, not only vaping can replicate the act of smoking but also brings quick and efficient nicotine satisfaction. And it is so easy to start – pick up a disposable vape or pod vape kit, they are inhale activated that require no maintenance and cleaning.

To welcome the upcoming stoptober, we’ve prepared a wide range of e-cigarettes for smokers to choose from, including disposable vapes, pod vape kits, and nic salt e-liquids. They all come at favourable prices which are much lower than usual times, we sincerely hope that the vast number of smokers can succeed and give up smoking for good in Stoptober 2022.
