    When others mean well and give you analogs because they hate to see you go through withdrawls

    ach! It's okay, all of it. He misstepped, you flipped out, forgive it all and go on. It's not a weakness to give in to something bigger than you. Most of us on this forum have had to admit that the cigarette addiction was bigger than us. You're not alone by a long shot! Keep your...

    I just want to complain.. withdrawal.. addiction.. so sleepy/groggy.. and anxious..

    It's not all in your head, at least not your mind. Reading a bit at Wikipedia, my understand is that; Nicotine causes certain physiological changes to receptors in your nervous system(s). Some of these can cause increases in certain hormones that regulate alertness and energy producing...

    So when did you start to feel "better" (over the hump) when switching?

    I think this is a "Your Results May Vary" type of thing. Smoked 33 years, right before switching about ten to fifteen American Spirit Milds, smoking outside (behavior modification) and using Nic-Out filters. Switched and no real mood swings, depression, or flu symptoms. Immediately did not...

    What's with the nonsmokers being so happy I quit smoking and then asking

    No, I get this from the husband. He's like, "So how long are you going to vape?" I answer - as long as I want to. Reminds me of the people who continuously asked me when I was going to get pregnant once married, and wouldn't let it drop forcing me to explain that I was physically unable...

    I was so afraid to try!

    izabella, so glad you found ECF and that you started on this journey to rid your self of the smokey sticks. :) Give yourself some time to get used to vaping, don't worry about smoking a few analogs during the transition. What kind of e-cig did you get? Did you buy juice to go with it or did...

    Lost the long post I had typed. Will try again. I'm almost afraid to post here.

    So true...and then, your tastes will change. When I first started sampling juices Banana Bread was a favorite. It's still okay, but not up at the top any longer. No, now it's Chocolate Mint and let me tell you, this stuff makes my eyes cross with pleasure :hubba: However, when I first...

    Help! Smoking ban! What am I supposed to do now?!

    I feel for you. :( It may not be the employer making this decision, or at least the employer may not be the driving force behind the decision. Their insurance company may be forcing them into it with lower costs. Humana won't hire smokers in Arizona Some excerpts (bold and color emphasis...

    Quit 5 years ago, thinking of E - cigs...

    My thoughts are that excess weight can be as health threatening as analog cigarettes, sooo, if you absolutely are orally fixated then going the 0 nic route may be the ticket for you. What I wouldn't do is get a cigarette look-alike and nicotine juice. The cigarette look links the e-cig and...

    Trying to get my mom to vape - but she has health issues

    Let her give it a go, you never know what the outcome will be. As far as "addictive personality", I don't know about that, I kicked alcohol and drugs (26 years ago), and a four pot a day caffeine habit (five years ago) without a twitch. Cigarettes, I too couldn't stand them any longer...

    I've Just Started Vaping

    So glad you were able to get a kit and start. Amazing how easy it seems to be to let the cigs go once you're vaping, no? Have fun and enjoy growing healthier every day :)

    Best juice supplier?

    As everyone has said, it depends what you're looking for. Mix, flavor preference, etc. Me, I go all VG. Vaporite and Virgin Vapors. I dislike tobacco flavors, but love heavy types such as Kona Cream and Chocolate Mint. Some suppliers will put in double and some even triple the amount of...

    The Smell

    Not complained, more wondered about. I have an Organic Butter Rum that always has my husband asking what I'm cooking. LOL Poor guy, I'm probably leaving him perpetually hungry:laugh:

    Questions...batteries, atomizers and more, oh my! :)

    Mods will have to be saved up for, hubby already found one at Electronic Cigarettes and E-Liquid - Great Lakes Vapor that, of course, he likes :rolleyes: I looked at the e-power, it looks nice. I will have to save for it after getting the deal at LF on the Riva starter kit hubby will be...
