Professionally, I'm a copywriter/storyteller and I noticed in your recent films that you truly understood how to convey your story in words and visuals concisely, effectively and easy to understand without the extra flowery words. It's quite refreshing and inspiring. Keep up your great job!
When someone is addicted to something, they have to switch that addiction with something else. Nicotine was switched to food. Food was swichted to crazy workouts. Workouts switched to 10k marathons. BUT, which hurt do you want? The hurt that negatively affects yourself or the hurt that is going to have a positive effect on you?
Oh yes most definitely I agree! I went from anorexia to bulimia to vaping. I bought me a $50 vape mod and a years supply of vape juice and truly hooked onto this nicotine addiction. I hope everyone gets through their addiction!🩷🩷🩷
This video somehow came at the perfect time as I’ve decided to quit alcohol completely out of my life and no longer let it have control over me. Thank you for the inspiration.
This was so raw and vulnerable Sophia, and I highly commend you for putting it out there. Any sort of addiction is a painful battle that people do not see behind closed doors. The mental battle can feel like the toughest, especially when you feel like you are against yourself in that deep depression. No matter what though, your video showed that ANYONE is capable of quitting whatever is no longer serving them. It might take time and be a painful journey, however it is so rewarding in the end and those supports in your life are everything. Recovery is the best way of saying "I love you" to yourself and your loved ones. Thank you
This couldn’t have come at a better time. I quit smoking cigarettes in 2017, cold Turkey.wasnt hard. Started vaping 2 yrs ago and omfg …. It’s so hard to quit. But I know this year is gonna be the one I stop. this shall be my last vape. I’ll comeback to this comment in December 😅 thank you so much for this video!
This hits home, thank you for sharing. I started vaping 5 years ago and now stopped for 2 months. I’m pregnant and when I evaluated my life, I just couldn’t believe I would treat my body this way. Been a raver since 2013 and it’s all stopping for the this next exciting chapter in my life. 😍
Thank you for this video Sophia, it was like a sign for me 🤍 I quit vaping a while back for only 1 month but relapsed. A few days ago I told myself it’s going to be now or never and so today is my third day nicotine free. Your journey inspires me so much and I hope one day I’ll reach the 1 year mark as well! So proud of you.
Sophia I watched this video probably over 3x now because I’m struggling really hard with quitting vape. Like you, I realized how bad my addiction was… I was ashamed of spending my hard earned money, and how I wasn’t respecting my body. This is going to be my 4th time watching this video, and I hope I can quit. Thank you for encouraging me, and others.
I'm really enjoying being in my 30s now. I DO NOT MISS MYSELF IN MY 20s at all. I was reckless as well, partying, smoking cigarettes/vaping since I was 20. Now 33 and stopped everything for 2 years. My boyfriend has been so supportive of my health that we both barely drink alchohol as well😊 it's nice to be with a partner who prioritizes being healthy and happier 💗 so happy for your new, healthier lifestyle 💗
so so proud of you sophia! i've been vaping since college in 2019, and i recently quit cold turkey at the beginning of this year. the first week was definitely the hardest, and i didn't have a lot of faith in myself at all. but now i'm proud to say that i'm (almost) 1 month nicotine-free!! never gonna go back, and i already see how much more improved my health has been and how much better i feel. ur doing an amazing job and are so inspiring!! 💗
I don't smoke or vape at all, but hearing about your struggles and journey to overcome this addiction has brought tears to my eyes. You are so strong and you did well. I'm so happy to see you thriving and I always look forward to your life updates.
i started vaping 4 years ago. i still remember the exact moment i first hit it. i finally quit 2 weeks before the new year. i’ve been craving one so bad but my body deserves better
Thank you for sharing your story! Very real and honest. Nicotine addiction especially vaping is not talked about enough in the AAPI community so much appreciated! 🙏
wow what a throwback to that pic of you and weylie and the iconic purple hair era. from watching you for all these years since the beginning, it's crazy to see that next to who you are today and how much you've grown and changed. congrats on this achievement, it's not an easy one and i definitely understand the struggle as i'm 3 months in on my own journey. thank you for sharing with us and sending much love to you, leo, and luna
super encouraging! Mine is a little different but next month will mark 6-months from smoking weed. super excited and can't wait until I hit my year mark.
Congratulations, Sophia. Only you would know how terrifying, frustrating and difficult the journey has been. As someone who had different addictions, hitting that milestone mark is a relief. Strong lady, you've got this. To many more milestone anniversaries to come! ❤🎉
wow, the fact that you essentially went on this journey bc of sean's asthma. you would've been dating for just a few months at that point. its sweet that for over a decade you couldnt find a reason strong enough for why you deserve a nicotine-free life but when it directly harmed your loved one that was enough to quit cold turkey.
Sophia, I'm that one of your subscribers who have watched all of your videos but for this one, I really really want to say thank you for being so brave and honest. I've been trying to quit vaping too for about a week and what I can say is that, your video has been truly helpful personally because, you told us the not-so-talked stuggle which is the snacking and food craves. Your video "prepares" me to go through this struggle and if it wasn't because I watched this repeteadly, I def wouldn't be able to be this solid to continue the journey. So really thank you thank you so much for this. Can't wait to see more of your fab works
I also have an addictive personality and know without a shadow of a doubt it I try nicotine, it's over for me. So I've stayed away. CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU THIS IS HUGE!! WISHING YOU ALL THE BEST.
congratulations on your milestone, sophia! your video couldn't have come at a better time. i've been working on giving up drinking and experiencing similar phases. thank you for opening up about your journey and being an inspiration to others ❣
It's been a while since I have been back on your channel but I'm glad to still see you around after all these years! Thank you for sharing your quitting journey as someone who is in the process of quitting nicotine themselves. This has given me more hope that it is possible and to be nicer to myself when I do relapse.
Congrats 👏!!! I started my own journey of cutting out excess sweets . I know it doesn't sound serious, but I could eat nothing but sweets ALL day. I just turned 60, and I thought at this age that I would be so carefree about what I ate , but nope didn't happen . I wish myself alot of luck because I never follow through with anything even though I know that I would feel alot better. Today is day 2 and it feels like I'm looking for a needle in a hay stack , removing each strand of hay one by one , AND ITS JUST DAY 2 ! I hope I make it , I will be looking at this vlog alot to inspire me , thank you for the much needed help 😊
Hell yes! You’re crushing it! Keep working hard on yourself and thank u for being vulnerable. Remember to take time for yourself to just simply relax. ❤
Im on day 26 of no nicotine, you’ve got this!!! Sometimes when it gets super hard I remind myself that it’s not supposed to be easy, but it is worth it
Sophia, congratulations on a year!! Vaping makes it so hard to quit nicotine; it's just so easy to keep hitting a vape and not even notice how much it's killing your body bc it tastes/feels so pleasant, versus a cigarette (imo). It's one of the hardest things to quit since it's been so normalized. I'm so glad that you're feeling better, both physically and mentally 💖 thanks for sharing your journey with us girl!
Right even as a on smoker, I find myself wanting to vape with friends after a night out. So dangerous! Btw idk if you’re into nyc vlogs but if so, you might like mine! I’d be sooo grateful if you swung by and took a peek. 🙏 Stick around if you like!
thank you for including the piece about weight gain/loss and body image. it’s been powerful for my own body dysmorphia to see you, someone i look up to and who i never imagined to deal with any body image difficulties, experience the same thing too. ik it can be taboo to discuss, esp when being on the smaller end, but when you’ve known one body for most of your life and suddenly your body doesn’t look like that anymore it makes sense for our brain to go ??????? lol but ty and congratulations ilysm!!
I’m happy you posted this. It makes me feel like I’m not alone. I also hit my vape every like 15 seconds. We have so many similarities. Caffeine + nicotine = unstoppable. I also have smoked for over 10 years. I’ve started eating better & exercising but I also need to get rid of the nicotine. I have thought about going back to smoking for the same reason you did. I know it’s horrible AND I have asthma smh. Congrats girl!!! I hope I’m right behind you.
I am so happy to see you in a state where you feel confident without vaping and smoking. It must have been a very hard journey. Our body has their own power to stand up again:) We should believe in ourselves and our bodies. I am so proud of you:) + The story about why you quit smoking was very sad. Cause I didn't expect it. The thought that you had at the moment would have been very strong, I think. The moment when you felt that you wanted to put your loved ones before smoking was so powerful! I could feel you when you were talking about that so I was sad, as well. Have a good one and I wish you happiness.
Sophie, I have been a viewer for the past decade. Thanks for being so vulnerable. Hope 2024 will treat you right and congrats on this huge step of your life. ✨💓
Congratulations 🎉 I quit 2 years ago when I found out I was pregnant. like you vaping was harder than cigarettes but thankfully I was able to go cold turkey with no withdrawals. Before I took my pregnancy test when I would smoke my body started rejecting it by always making me feel gross instead of how I would normally feel.
Yay Sophia!! I remember watching you, Jenn, and Weylie religiously back in middle school/HS. I’m 23 now and almost a year nicotine-free after being addicted for 5 years🥹 Similarly, the only reason I was able to quit was because my cat got diagnosed with CHF, and I desperately made a deal with God so I would quit so that my kitty could live. It worked! (the vet changed a 9-12 month prognosis into “it’s a miracle! he’ll be here for a long time”). SO PROUD OF US❤
Congratulations Sophia 🎉 Your story and the way you have broken it down and communicated it will help and inspire many. It takes great courage and strength to overcome the challenge of kicking an addiction and habit for good. Well Done! 🎉👏🏾
This was truly inspiring. I don't even know what to say. I know that no words will be enough to explain the hardship behind the journey. As a person who have struggled with ED, I can relate so much to the weight gain as an unexpected struggle that emerged along the way. As a person who struggled with ED, it's honestly impressive that you were able to achieve a healthy balance between working to get your body back and not letting it become another obsession. I'm so proud of you. You're so strong. Thank you so much for sharing 🤍🤍
"it's honestly impressive that you were able to achieve a healthy balance between working to get your body back and not letting it become another obsession". THIS!! very inspiring
I work in the hospital where a lot of patients come in have addictions. Nicotine addiction is worse than heroine, cocaine, meth…you deserve and round of applause 👏. You earned that batch alright. Much love to you Sophia. Hope your mother visits you soon so I can see her in your videos ❤❤❤
A huge congratulations on this incredible milestone, Soph. So proud of you and thank you for sharing such a deeply personal journey. Hears to a healthy, happy, and prosperous 2024.
I feel very lucky because I don't seem to be the type of person that gets addicted to drugs. Still, I was able to draw something from this video because most of us have addictive tendencies in some parts of life and I am no exception. Thanks for being so open about this.
This inspiring vid brought tears in my eyes! Ive never been a smoker or addicted to anything, so i wont know or even understand how hard it was for u. Im tearing up coz uve changed into a better you ❤ congrats sophie!
😭😭😭 this made me cry... I remember watching the other Sophia and I AM SO PROUD OF YOU 💛 You look so happy and healthy now, like you know what you want. It is not nicotine for me, I feel like I am in the after stage of it now with the binging and I can't wait to finally be READY. I feel it coming butjust not quite there yet
Congrats Sophia!!!! This video hit home. I was smoking for about a year, but I got addicted QUICK. I didn’t even mean to get into vaping, but I was in college and stressed at the time so my juul quickly became my emotional support buddy. I remember even flat out calling it that and I really would feel uneasy if it wasn’t in arms length at all times. It was the first thing I thought of in the morning and how I put myself to sleep. It’s so wild how normalized vaping (especially) can be. Quitting was hard on my body too, I mostly dealt with anxiety and headaches and cold turkey was the only way that worked for me too. (A breakup is what pushed me to quit lol) After even just a few weeks off though I felt my energy levels increase and I no longer had a chronic cough or difficulty breathing after several runs up my apartment stairs. It’s been years now since I’ve quit and honestly I’ll still get cravings for it! Like I said, my vape was my buddy. It reminds me of a simpler time and a more vulnerable version of myself. Sometimes I yearn for that part of my life and my tendencies then, but I know I’ve been a better person without it. Thanks so much for sharing your personal story!! I hope you never stop feeling proud of yourself for quitting and I’m glad you had/have people in your life that supported you through it. We are doing amazing!! ❤
So proud of you Sofia. Anytime to quit is the best time. It’s HARD. I’ve been smoke free for 10 years now and I’ll never look back. 💜now everything will smell better too 😂
I am so proud of you sophie!!!! this video made me so happy i was beaming the whole time. you are an inspiration to me and so many others, and watching you on this journey is truly an honor. you're incredible! and i hope you know and always remember that. thank you for sharing this with us
I quit smoking cause I got pregnant with my son 2 years ago and never want to go back. The hardest part was I actually love and enjoying smoking but I did it cause I knew it wasn’t good for me or my son. I’m glad you did it. I know how hard it is.
Congratulations Sophie! What a huge accomplishment and inspiring personal story. Appreciate you sharing such a personal experience online with your community I’m sure this was challenging. I know you’ll inspire others to quit too ❤
could you do a video about running? ur journey, equipment, outfits, shoes, etc? i want to switch to more healthy outlets as well. thank u for this video
Happy one year nicotine-free anniversary 🎉🎉🎉. Been following you for a long time and I'm really so so happy for you. The way my heart swelled when I heard your story. I love you Soph ❤ you can do anything you set your heart out to
been trying so hard to quit weed and I quit everything else and I don't drink for months now I really need to go cold turkey like you did and just not look back! ill train like you did I feel that you have to replace the habit with another better acting habit. be the best you can be each day
Congratulations! I just hit my 100th day of being sober and no nicotine! Feeling so good about it hope to get to a year like you taking it one day at a time
Amazing, big congratulations!! I remember when you first announced this journey, it definitely seemed super hard on you, so proud at where you are now! I met a friend who vapes and the addiction is actually shocking, like you said, taking a hit every 15-30 seconds is… wow. So great when you don’t have to rely and be attached at the hip to a substance like that. Cheers!

You quit once and you can do it again. You got this!! I’m rooting for you!! 🙌🏼
I heard its harder with vaping bc you consume way more nicotine than the average cigarette.
7 months without vape!!!! 💨
This hits home, thank you for sharing. I started vaping 5 years ago and now stopped for 2 months. I’m pregnant and when I evaluated my life, I just couldn’t believe I would treat my body this way. Been a raver since 2013 and it’s all stopping for the this next exciting chapter in my life. 😍

The purple hair era was when Sophia started vlogging and I remember it so clearly
i was thinking the same thing! rooting for you :))
Appreciate you ❤ 3 months is huge!! keep pushing through!
super encouraging! Mine is a little different but next month will mark 6-months from smoking weed. super excited and can't wait until I hit my year mark.
Congratulations, Sophia. Only you would know how terrifying, frustrating and difficult the journey has been. As someone who had different addictions, hitting that milestone mark is a relief. Strong lady, you've got this. To many more milestone anniversaries to come! ❤🎉
Would you be able to teach/show us how you got over your food addiction? I’d love to learn about fasting and everything that worked for you!
I quit spontaneously 4 weeks ago. I agree, it is the ultimate self love!! You have to be so in tune with your body and also patient with the process
wow, the fact that you essentially went on this journey bc of sean's asthma. you would've been dating for just a few months at that point. its sweet that for over a decade you couldnt find a reason strong enough for why you deserve a nicotine-free life but when it directly harmed your loved one that was enough to quit cold turkey.

So so so proud of you sophia,😊
Also 10th year nicotine free here 😊i quit in support of my husband we survive!anyone can do it too keep on fighting
Yay Sophia!! I remember watching you, Jenn, and Weylie religiously back in middle school/HS. I’m 23 now and almost a year nicotine-free after being addicted for 5 years🥹 Similarly, the only reason I was able to quit was because my cat got diagnosed with CHF, and I desperately made a deal with God so I would quit so that my kitty could live. It worked! (the vet changed a 9-12 month prognosis into “it’s a miracle! he’ll be here for a long time”). SO PROUD OF US❤
Congratulations Sophia 🎉
Your story and the way you have broken it down and communicated it will help and inspire many. It takes great courage and strength to overcome the challenge of kicking an addiction and habit for good. Well Done! 🎉👏🏾
Go girl! Proud of you - hope this inspires other smokers to cut down/quit as well. You’re right, it’s the ultimate type of self love!

A huge congratulations on this incredible milestone, Soph. So proud of you and thank you for sharing such a deeply personal journey. Hears to a healthy, happy, and prosperous 2024.

I feel very lucky because I don't seem to be the type of person that gets addicted to drugs. Still, I was able to draw something from this video because most of us have addictive tendencies in some parts of life and I am no exception. Thanks for being so open about this.
Congratulations! I quit cigarettes in 2019. Had a 6 week relapse in 2021. Haven’t smoked since🎉❤ Praise God
This inspiring vid brought tears in my eyes! Ive never been a smoker or addicted to anything, so i wont know or even understand how hard it was for u.
Im tearing up coz uve changed into a better you ❤ congrats sophie!

It is not nicotine for me, I feel like I am in the after stage of it now with the binging and I can't wait to finally be READY. I feel it coming butjust not quite there yet
Congrats Sophia!!!!

Congratulations!!!! I’m on my journey of quitting cigarettes and really appreciate that you shared how hard it can be ❤️
Sophia, been following you for a while. M so proud of you. You gained still look good (but you deserve to get your own confidence) ❤

I quit smoking cause I got pregnant with my son 2 years ago and never want to go back. The hardest part was I actually love and enjoying smoking but I did it cause I knew it wasn’t good for me or my son. I’m glad you did it. I know how hard it is.

Amazing, big congratulations!! I remember when you first announced this journey, it definitely seemed super hard on you, so proud at where you are now!
I met a friend who vapes and the addiction is actually shocking, like you said, taking a hit every 15-30 seconds is… wow. So great when you don’t have to rely and be attached at the hip to a substance like that.
Cheers!
