Exercise triggers many of the same receptors and may function as a substitute.

Yes, and I often recommend it to people trying to make similar life changes, but I already cycle 6-10 hours a week and do plenty of other stuff, yoga etc. Not only do I feel like I'm already fully utilizing the benefits of a physical regimen, since I had been very much in the habit of combining that with vaping sessions it's now yet another thing that I have to get used to doing without enhancement. This one hurts, really. Scratch an athlete and you will find someone very strongly opinionated about their optimal personal chemistry. Sometimes this manifests as a strict adherence to sobriety but at least as often (in my experience) it's a schedule of substances which ranges across the spectrum from licit to less-than.

Thank you
