<p>This week, Tim quit the tastiest coping mechanism you'll find on the streets today – vaping.</p><br><p>Having been an on-off smoker for most of his adult life, it reached the point where it didn't feel like a choice anymore, and something needed to change. But for the sake of search/discoverability let's call it a New Year's Resolution...</p><br><p>Quitting absolutely wrecked his head – and it still does. So in this catch up with J, Tim speaks candidly about it all: shame,loss of control, the uncomfortable truths and the mental health impact of rehabbing from addiction.</p><br><p>And, <em></em><strong><em>crucially,</em></strong> it's about why he smoked in the first place.</p><br><p>This episode talks about addiction, beyond just smoking/vaping, but there's nothing but empathy here from the guys 💙</p><br><p>If you wanna get in touch and chat (with your privacy totally respected), please hit us up on Instagram <a href="www.instagram.com/manvsmindpod" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@manvsmindpod</a> – we promise we'll listen.</p><p>If you’re enjoying the show PLEASE consider leaving us a 5* rating and a few words to review the show - the algorithm loves it and it’ll help more people find the show ❤️❤️</p><br><p>Head to our <a href="https://www.patreon.com/manvsmindpod" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Patreon</a> for exclusive bonus content!
