Day 1 need incouragement

[Hellen A. Handbasket]

Good for you SNM!

I found that it helped with the times I was having a craving for a ciggy by using 28mg liquid in a separate and specific flavor (Menthol worked great for me to kill off cravings, and I'd never smoked menthol, but this gave me that big throat hit feeling) then I went back down to 12 mg (cappuccino or a tobacco flavor) for all day vaping. If you don't like menthol, choose a flavor that is big like Cherry high mg (which works well with a tobacco flavor and you can put it in the same cart).

I'm coming up on 8 months. These do work if you really want to quit... keep at it and let us know how you are doing!

I did have to increase the nicotine in the liquid. My carts came with 16 mg and I now refill with 24 mg. liquid. I also have a little 36 mg on hand.

If need be, you can add other sources of nicotine. I was using about 8 pieces of nicotine gum per day and smoking 10 analogs when I stopped the analogs and switched over to vaping. I'm still using about 6 pieces of nicotine gum.

Just vape until you are sick of vaping, then vape some more
Just have it in your head that it will save your life and no amount of vaping can compare to the damage you were doing to yourself. and everything will be fine.
I'm over 105 days analogue free and not one iota of craving for one neither. I'm done with tobacco for good.

Thanks for the kind words. Day 2 is half over and I has not been easy. But I am determined.

[PlanetScribbles]

I can assure you that once you get to day 14 or so, you start to replace the habit of lighting up with the habit of topping up. It's still a habit, but a nicer and healthier one
Given the choice, I take the latter every time.

That is Great
One day at a time it does get easier. Before you know it a week will have gone by. This is a first for me after 27yrs and it is an awesome feeling.

Day 3 half over. It is starting to get a little easier... Plus i did the teabag mod ''' What a world of diffrence

This is what I do -

If I want a cigarette, I make a deal with myself that I can have one, but first I have to vape for 5 minutes.

I hadn't had a cigarette in almost 2 months, but I did fall off the wagon yesterday. I smoked a whole pack, but I am ok today. I'm not really missing them anymore like I thought I was.

YOur doing awesome! My first 3 days I smoked a analog in the morning and I also made the deal with myself that I would vape for 10 minutes and I didnt want one. I did however and still do keep 36mg for mornings, high stress situations and when I am going a while without vaping. If I am at home I use 18-24mg. I agree with DVAP you will find your nicotine strength you need...so experiment until you feel you dont need them anymore. I think it has been 3 months now! I do use the big battery model and a passthrough with me at all times so my ecig never dies....It is SO WORTH IT!!! I can smell, I dont smell, and I can breath better and I love this!!
