    How do I refresh my tongue or palate after vaping for hours?

    Hello! I switched away from SLS toothpaste & mouthwash. I was using Biotene, but it's ferociously expensive, so I switched over the the Walgreen's store brand, and I find that it works just as well for much less money. And I use a tongue brush every time I brush my teeth, which also helps. I...

    Accidental Quitters: 24 hours for me and my husband!

    Sometimes I need a cigarette, and nothing else will do (sometimes I need the anti-depressants in smoke), but I'm also an accidental quitter. I forget to to smoke most of the time. It was the darnedest thing! I just enjoy vaping, an it scratches the itch, if that makes any sense. The best thing...

    does this worry you about e-cigs?

    This is very true. I'm vaping unflavored 70 VG/30 PG from MadVapes, and it has a mild sweet taste. I keep my tank topped up, and the clearo darkens the juice as I vape, making it a little bit sweeter. If I'm feeling wild & crazy, I'll toss a droplet of grape flavored juice in there, but I don't...

    More Celebs starting to vape....

    I always wondered about LoungeLizzie. Johnny Depp, I'm willing to set aside my height requirement for you and only you--call me! Aw crud, I just remembered that I'm married. Never mind. Sorry Johnny, it wasn't meant to be.

    Anyone notice mood/mental health changes since switching?

    You know, you might be on to something there. What happens if you take MAOIs and you don't need them? I wonder if they have the opposite affect, or agitate the person who's getting them unnecessarily? I wish I knew, but I'm afraid I have no clue on that one. Something to ponder, though.

    Has anyone experienced this????

    I have the worst of both worlds - my sister quit smoking with Zyban, and in her mind, I'm still a smoker. My husband still smokes, and he said I quit. I tend to have a lot of harebrained ideas, so no one I know takes my vaping seriously - they think it's just some kind of jag I'm on. Without...

    Anyone notice mood/mental health changes since switching?

    Here's a really good post on carbolines and alkaloids. Pull up a cuppa and your PV, because there's a lot in it. This explains why I've had a couple of ciggies a day since last Saturday. The weather changed and my brain was suddenly really, really hungry for the goodies it gets out of analogs...

    Sun-Related Anxiety & Depression + Beta Carboline

    Well, it happened. I'm photosensitive, and it causes me to have migraine-related anxiety attacks and depression. This weekend was bright & warm, and man, it hit me like a sledgehammer! Yesterday I stuck with vaping, and felt horrible all day, no matter what I did (I didn't smoke at all). Today...

    What makes some smokers so resistant?

    No one likes to be told what to do, and no one likes to be harangued. Seriously, would any vaper on this board have made the switch if people had been mashing their nose in it? Play nice! Quit acting like ANTZ, and leave the smokers alone. You're probably queering the whole thing for them by...

    Are clearomizers really this complicated?

    I, too, am technologically declined. I get by keeping it simple. I bought a Kanger T2 tank from Vaporbeast for $5, and a 5-pack of replacement heads is $7 (these prices include shipping). No leaks, no fuss, and changing the heads is easy. The heads last about a week, probably because I use a...

    Starter- Need help with Ego choices

    Hi there! I'm pretty new, too - I've only been vaping for a couple of months. I may upgrade to an eGo-C later, but for now I'm just using plain old ego batteries. I get the Superior Ego batteries from Apollo, because they're inexpensive and Apollo has a good warranty on their batteries, which...

    you didn't really quit smoking because you're vaping...

    I think one of the worst tings the ANTZ did was vilify smokers - it made everyone who has a pi$$y streak about smoking the junior high bully, and they're utterly toxic. The ANTZ made smokers into second-class citizens, and now they're flying test balloons to see if they can fling vitriol at...

    Kanger protank - disappointed.....

    Where did you buy yours? Mine was $23.

    Kanger protank - disappointed.....

    Hey guys, I decided to try some of the advice I've seen on here (except tossing it into the trash). I didn't want a solution that looked rigged, so I got a piece of binder paper, lined up the skirt to the punched hole in the paper, traced it, cut the paper circle, and used it as a gasket...

    Kanger protank - disappointed.....

    I've been disappointed with it, too. I got it so I'd have something to vape cinnamon in, and I can barely taste it. I use a strong cinnamon flavor that I've had to dilute with unflavored before, because it was so intense. With the Protank, I'm getting the ...-end of the juice's flavor, the burnt...

    Kitsap Sun article

    Wow, you're right - I read the comments section of the article, and I think I sprained my neck from shaking my head so much. What a bunch of tools.

    Anyone notice mood/mental health changes since switching?

    I wish the medical community would reach out to others who suffer. I'm willing to bet it feels even worse, when the folks who only need the nicotine are handing out inappropriate advice. Best of luck! Rusty

    Hey, cool, I buy my juice from you! I hope Kitsap doesn't go the way Seattle did.
