MYTH - E-cigarettes aimed at non-smokers

[iStormUK]

I've only recently starting vaping, and am shocked! :o

Did cigarettes really taste as bad as they seem to taste to me now? My battery died, so had to buy some cigs til I got home, and they tasted like mouldy old socks, stewed in water for a week. :x (And please, don't ask how I know that taste, I'm judging it based on odour, compared to the flavour I tasted in the cig).

I'm not sure I could ever smoke a cigarette again, I'll be a vaper for a while, it seems now.

I know it's hard to believe when you consider that I am only 29 years old, but I did smoke for 45 years.

I love it!

Great Pool

This one and the "E-Cig Success Rate" should be stickies... And maybe even sent to FDA and other associations every months or so.

I have been killing myself for 25 years with cigarettes.
Nothing could stop me: gums, patches, inhalator. I tried many time but never have been able to even last one day without smoking. I remeber rolling butches when broke ... beuark

For the last 15 years I bought individual packs int hope it would be my last by a kind of miracle. Last years where horrible : chest pains, low physical endurance, one pneumonia, simple flu where long to cure, throat pains, etc etc...

Well, the "miracle" came
Got my 510 ... my last analogue pack last me 9 days.

A PV is kind of magic but its success is easy to explain: At first it is quite like a true cigarette. After it is better !

Now the realy hard part will be to gradually reduce the nic ... to 0 mg. (We need a pool on that).

And I've saved a lot of money. Sadly, it is mostly lost taxes so they won't like that part.

We are over 100 here now. I would love to see this poll top 1,000 to match up with the "e-cig success rate" response.

I think some day I will be able to say that e-cigs literally saved my life. I have enough problems with lupus, but I just couldn't ever quit. Once I actually quit for 2 years, but then I started up again during some crisis which I can't even remember now.

Before the e-cig I had smoked on average about 2 packs a day for over 38 years. Some years less, some years more. I really wanted to quit, but the patches, gum, lozenges, drugs, therapies, and hypnosis -- oh yeah, almost forgot the acupuncture -- those things never worked for me.

I had my last analog cigarette on my 3rd day of vaping. I really didn't intend to quit -- just wanted an alternative to use at home when it's just too darned cold to step outside. But I found myself really liking the e-cig. A couple of weeks into the vaping thing I thought I wanted a "real" cigarette, so bought a pack, lit one up, and got deathly nauseous. I never realized how bad they really taste until that day. Bottom line is I did not smoke it but did let it burn up in an ashtray. I eventually gave the pack away.

I have been smoke-free since September 4th. And I am loving it.

30 years of smoking. Was able to quit last year Feb 2nd and started smoking again this April. Found e-cigs in May. Still haven't been able to totally dump the analogs but I'm getting there. Only still smoke when drinking can't stand them otherwise.
