Vaping addiction

[guero]

Its been 7 weeks now since I quit smoking reg cigs. It was actually pretty easy using my ecig. I realize that I actually like vaping more than I liked smoking (a pack a day). The problem I have is I cant stop. I start in the morning and just keep on going. When Im at work it slows down, but on a day off like yesterday, I started in the AM and just kept on going and going until the afternoon when I couldnt any more with my throat being so sore. With a reg cig you smoke one and stop and smoke another a little later or whenever. But with ecig I can do it all the time and can just keep vaping and vaping. Im down to 6mg liquid so I dont think its a nicotine thing. Im just hooked. Anyone else in this situation?

yeah, I do that too. Not every day anymore, but sometimes I just go and go like you do. It's fun

Yes I think I have traded one addiction for another, I am sure this is true. I am still basically addicted to nicotine (though I have cut back to 24 and will cut back more as liquid is re-ordered). Sometimes I vape heavily especially during my free time, but I find I do this less as time goes by. I do not ever seem to get a sore throat. I do not know how great the situation is for you, but for me this is much better than cigs and at least for now I try not to worry. I have already noticed many health benefits, of course I am still adicted to SOMETHING but I am not sure that is so bad after 45 years of cigs.....

I have the same problem. What I have started doing is vaping like I used to smoke. I will puff through about 6 drops, 12 if after a meal. After words I dissasemble my JS and put it in the case. That was I am not tempted to puff and puff and puff till I run out of power or juice. It helps with my juice consumption as well. I went from going through 30ml of 24mg every 2 weeks to 30ml of 12mg a month!!

I find that if I'm vaping all day, it's because the nic content of my liquid is too low. 36mg is the lowest strength I can "put down" for more than a few minutes.

for me its not a craving like I need nicotine. its the taste. I enjoy/like the flavor of the ecig alot better than I ever did a reg cig. I tried putting mine away, and I just pick it right back up and start again.

I have the same problem. It would be interesting to see if e-cigs keep the nicotine levels as high in the blood as analogs, could be why we vape so heavy. I've read somewhere around here we get a lot less nicotine as compared to analogs...just my $.02.

Maybe it would be a good idea to have a couple of different liquids set up and ready. One with nicotine to help with that addiction, and another with no nicotine and plenty of flavoring to satisfy yourself in between nic vapes.

I've been planning to do this, so I got a DIY kit and am going to get a bunch of PG, VG, and Loranns flavors so I can have my own little vape flavoring laboratory. It might be a good way to wean myself down to a smaller nic dose, as well.

This is a great idea. Can't believe it didn't occur to me. I vape near constantly like the OP does, and I don't think it's necessarily the nicotine, just the oral fixation.

"See honey? Sometimes I do have good ideas!"

I chain vaped a lot during my first month. Now i find my self forgetting to vape for up to 4 hours. But during Wipe night on Hardmode mimron sunday i think i went thru about 6ML. It's hard to keep claim when you want to Gkick all the rogues out of the guild

Ahhh.. I miss WoWspeak...

If my guild didn't go to crap over the summer.... and I didn't stop really getting on my 80's a couple weeks ago.... I'd probably be rocking some wowspeak myself.

Instead its pv-speak. *shrug* I can't be helped

I'm SO glad that I stopped raiding and decided to level an alt.

Anyway, about the original post, I don't think that there is anything with vaping for as long as you like.
