Jocelyn Altagracia knew her vaping had become a problem. Her then-boyfriend first handed her a Juul when she was 17 years old. Nearly a decade later, her habit wasn’t so fun anymore. If she dropped her vape in the toilet while she was out — which was often — she’d run from the bar to the corner store, grab a new one, and resume partying. “Every night, I would go to sleep with it next to me, then in the middle of the night, I would hit it if I got up to use the bathroom,” she said. “Like, why am I so addicted to something that can literally ruin my insides?” Her relationship with her vape was the longest one she’d ever been in.
