    Think at quitting vape

    I plan to step down my Nicotine levels from 24mg to 0mg over some course of time. I only started to vape exclusively a week ago so there's nothing set in stone yet. For now my main concern is giving my body time to repair itself. I know from previous quits that it's going to take my body roughly...

    E-liquids infused with B12,ginkgo extract,etc...

    It will be quite some time before studies are produced that prove with little doubt that vaping is a good way to obtain nutrients, though I don't doubt the possibility of your conclusion coming to fruition in the future.. From what (very limited information) I've seen on here thus far caffeine...

    I craved a real cigarette for about a minute last night.

    Well said, no positives could possibly ever outweigh the negative cost of acting on a craving.

    I craved a real cigarette for about a minute last night.

    Surely I did. No other replacement product has gotten me nearly an entire week with zero cravings. Granted it's not perfect, it's way more effective than anything else I've ever tried, so you might begin to see why I thought it would remain that way. However, as I said it was mainly an issue of...

    I craved a real cigarette for about a minute last night.

    True. I think what I had missed at that moment wasn't exactly the taste or desire for burning tar and smoke in my throat, but just the hit. I think the beer might have dulled me out some to the point where I wasn't feeling much of a hit anymore from the electronic, and in that moment I desired...

    I craved a real cigarette for about a minute last night.

    It's been about a weeks time now. I'd say the entirety of the week has been ridiculously easy in terms of not caring for cigarettes, can't say I've had any cravings apart from last night. This is something I can't say about my experiences with going cold turkey and using patches or gum, so...

    I craved a real cigarette for about a minute last night.

    Hanging out with friends just gaming, playing pool, darts, etc. Some green and a few beers later and suddenly it hit me like a ton of bricks. I wanted that full bodied throat hit, bad. I've been vaping 100% VG so I've been thinking of getting some stuff with PG for weekends when I'm throwing...

    Converting people

    Sorry to be nitpicky, but the 72s are the stubby ones. 27s are regular size, special blend. I know because I used to smoke both! Anyways good on you for trying for conversion. As far as I go, I know only one smoker in my life currently, the rest have managed to quit. He says "damn that...

    New, and wanting to kick the cancer stick!!

    I'm relatively new to vaping and I find the stardust + eGo starter kit have served me well. I plan to upgrade to a mini vivi nova soonish. Hope this helps!

    Relapse!

    It's great to see that you've opted to return and give it another go. I haven't relapsed from e-cigs yet but things like quitting analogs in general always entail some level of risk of relapse, we're only human so don't be too hard on yourself. The important part is that you're getting back up...

    Has anyone else noticed a decrease in rosacea after switching from analog to electronic?

    To my surprise I've noticed the small bit of rosacea I have around the sides of my nostrils is beginning to subside. The only other time this has ever happened is when I was running 10 miles a day, five days a week. Definitely unexpected. Just wondering if anyone else out there has noticed an...

    Health improvement???

    I've noticed a few individual things that have happened since I've managed to throw away the analog cigarettes. 1. Aging wrinkles have subsided some and circulation has improved. Pins and needles are gone. 2. My rosacea is subsiding to a degree. The only time while smoking this happened was...

    New to the forums, so yeah. Some questions, and a little background.

    I know exactly what you mean about the first vape of the day. It's really nice just rolling over and grabbing it and being able to vape. Before I basically slouched out of bed, stumbled down the stairs, and out the door to have my first cigarette of the day. I hated doing that, because it's like...

    New to the forums, so yeah. Some questions, and a little background.

    Thank you for all this useful information. It's good to see another college student on here as well. What's your major? I've noticed most reactions from people is kind of like they don't know what to say. Mostly I think they're confused about it, and a few have been worried that the vapor is...

    what did you smoke before you started vaping?

    I smoked everything. I never had brand allegiance and enjoyed variety, which is why e-liquids appeal to me so much. Common smokes were Marlboro Virginia Blend, Marlboro 27s, Marlboro 72s Full Flavor, American Spirit Full Body/Organic, Lucky Strikes, Kent Full Flavor. Every now and then I'd get...

    "Hi East and welcome to ECF. We just have to trust certain Vendors and follow what other vapers have discovered as there' no regulatory agency for ELiquid at this point. Here's a Trade Assoc that was just formed recently with the intention of being self regulatory by setting ELiquid standards...
