Cool Do You Really Want to Quit Nic or is the E-Cig Just a "Healthy" Replacement?

I wouldn't mind quitting nicotine altogether someday, but it's not really my motive at the moment. I enjoy vaping, even more than I enjoyed smoking. I've turned it into a full-fledged hobby... not so much with collecting devices (although I have purchased 4 in a week) but with tinkering with home brews. I've assembled a regular chemistry-set of pipettes, dropper bottles, flavorings, etc. When I'm bored, I work on another recipe.

Not at all for. I'm a diagnosed ADD and a student and I've self-medicated myself with cigarette for a few years now.

E-cigarettes have been a god send because before I'd get the calming effect of a stimulant but with less lung capacity which has lead to its own batch of problems that countered most of the aid from the nicotine.

I'm only been a week in but I'm feeling a lot better physically and mentally with the switch.

I have given up smoking analogues and am happy vaping. I am going to cut my nicotine intake though.

I am pretty new to this. I was the type smoker that really enjoyed smoking. I must have because I did it for around 34 years at 1 -2 packs a day. But I have been real cig free for 8 days now. I am enjoying this new thing just as much as smoking as the action is there and also the nic fix. For now I will just keep vapping.

I have found vaping to be a suitable replacement to smoking and am converting my neighbors.

I'd like to quit analogs. If the equipment improves so you're not replacing it all the time and the access to the liquid doesn't dry up I probably will keep it up for a while. I do love smoking.

I want to quit completely! I was amazed that with the e-cig I had zero desire for analogs...something that was missing with the gum, patch & chantix...I have a plan to quit e-cigs by my sons' B-day in early June...then I'll have to sell off all my stuff - which is quite a bit
