A strange gamble with my addiction

[boondongle]

The day I started vaporizing, I quit smoking. I haven't even craved a cigarette. But I want to put things to the test. I had an opened pack, and I want to try one to see if I even like the taste anymore. But here's the thing. I'm smart, so my subconscious is smart, and I'm wondering if maybe this idea isn't a trick. So, to counter that, I gave the open pack to the wifey, and asked her to decide when I should try one. This way, I'm sure it's not just a subconscious desire to smoke again.

What do you think? Good idea? Bad?

Bad idea.. Why mess with a good thing IMHO

If you try one you know It'll taste like schitt. I personally say go for it. You probably won't make it past one or two drags. I go through this every time I light up. Frikkin digusting habit smoking is, yet I can't quit totally. I just say that 5 is much less than the 30 a day I used to do.

I am guessing you won't like it. I've had a few analogs since starting vaping and they taste like I'm licking an ashtray. Personally, I don't expect you'll run back to them, because vaping is better.

However, if you DO try an analog and run back to them, don't blame me I dont want that on my head

Do it!!!!!!!


If you want to.


People should be able to do what they want without feeling bad.

I still smoke a couple cigs every day as well. I have noticed in a month of vaping that they do taste horrible and the stink is pretty amazing. I'm going to up my nicotine in the juice to hopefully get off them completely.

Besides, I don't consider vaping a way to quit smoking. It's a better way to smoke. I've quit repeatedly in the past, this isn't quitting...it's substituting something (hopefully) healthier.

The point is, for me, and I LOVE smoking, it's not the same as all those times I slapped on the patch and fought urges. I do virtually the same thing, get the same effect, and enjoy it MORE then I ever did before.

I too quit smokes that same day I go tmy first PV and have not had a single drag from a smoke since. The craving isn't there at all, but I do get the temptation from time to time just try a cig. I'm not sure why, maybe just to reinforce my decision to give them up after 25 years.

Thus far, I've been able to avoid acting on my curiosity. I think part of it is ego. I tell myself that I certainly won't get hooked again, I'm too smart for that(yea, right) but I still have that curiosity.......................

Let it go........If e-cigs are working for you why tempt fate? Like Elendil I have not had a cigarette since I started vaping...if it's a matter of nicotine...up your mg's or try a snus,either are a better alternative to picking up what you wanted to put down(even in a test mode)!The Wiz!
