I had to look it up too, but it’s the book that suggested the “bicameral mind” hypothesis. The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind

There are few things worse for your health than smoking cigarettes, and vaping is definitely not one of them. It’s not perfectly safe, as some people like to pretend, but if nicotine replacement therapy or meds made for quitting don’t work, e-cigs are a viable option.

I do echo your point about talking to a doctor though. A few different quitting meds can be used together and increase your chances of quitting, and the more times you try to quit, the more likely you are to succeed.
