You can try switching to nic pouches like zyn/velo. They're just powder nicotine from a lab I don't think they're tobacco based at all. For me vaping was also a physical addiction, whenever I'm driving or on the toilet or gaming I kept feeling the need to vape. So I dealt with the routine/physical aspect first and then the nicotine.
I was doing really well for about a month but I bought a vape for a night out and it lasted 2 weeks so I gotta taper off again with the pouches.
Yes my guy
Nicotine is as addictive as caffeine is, your %100 correct that you had a physical addiction to the habit of vaping. But nicotine from a lab (synthetic) or tobacco derived isn't really bad for you. It's why snus and nasal snuff have a lot of studies that show neither have any real side effects compared to smoking (and that's smoking anything). Taper off is best approach, since you can get all the way to 0mg, and even then as you said physically it can still be a challenge to quit.
