driving down a country road on a warm summer morning with the window slightly cracked. the smell of a zippo lighter igniting a fresh cigarette. sprinkle in the aroma of freshly cut grass and a hot cup of coffee.

i don't doubt that nicotine has something to with the addiction, but for me it's those memories that made it so hard to quit.

with that description i now want to paypal you the shipping for that carton.... THANX!

LOL

Wow OMG!!!!

How did you know I was talking about you?

You are such a fake, I knew it since the day I saw your first post

I wasn't going to say anything, but the cats out of the bag now sister

The truth is there is not enough room in a post to better explain the complex nature of addiction (especially this addiction)

I think we all have a pretty clear understanding of what this addiction is... I mean really, DUH! That is why we are all here, isn't it?

Really, so perhaps you can explain to us the placement of nicotine receptors in regards to the cerbral cortex?

Okay, you caught me.. So much money went into those acting classes too! I guess I couldn't fool you.

I agree, e-cigs are different for everyone. After a while they might lose that appeal factor, just like changing analog brands...

I guess I am one of the lucky ones because I had no intention of stopping analogs, I only wanted to try the e-cig to see if I could cut back.

Within 3 days, I was completely off analogs and have never had the desire to go back and I smoked analogs for 30 years.

Ooooo, medical terminology... You mean the dopamine effect that nicotine has? Oops, now you will want an essay on it, won't ya?

In 3 weeks I've gone from 30 analogs a day to 5 or 6 and I feel really good about that. And I do intend to quit analogs completely. In my case I think it might take the screwdriver to do. I do miss the consistency of the analogs. With my 901, you never know what that puff is going to be like due to the battery, atomizer, liquid, cart, etc, etc. Years ago I quit for about 8 months. I was in a bar at about the 8 month time frame with a friend who had quit for 10 years. I asked him how long it took before he didn't want one again. He looked me right in the eye and said " I want a smoke right now". Man that really depressed me. I feel confidant that I am stronger now with my new crutch, the electronic vaporizer.
