Hang in there, you can do it. Yep, that sentence is oft repeated, but it's actually true. Believe it or not, after a while, wanting a ciggy is kind of like running into an old girlfriend. You see her, exchange pleasantries and decide to go for coffee/drinks and talk about "the good old days"...

I've always equated the money dropped on vape gear as "costs less than a carton of Marlboro 100's" each time I've made another purchase. I have several batteries, in-use and backups, as I've become accustomed to having to charge batteries for everything I own; my cell phone, my laptop, my...

My first tank, so I don't know any better. But I like what I have !!

I'd say take all your gear to a vape shop and ask the guy/gal behind the counter, "How do I use this ?". Any shop that respects their customers (and potential new) will gladly show you what to do. While all the printed advice here is good, nothing beats hands-on instruction. When I switched...

Keep on truckin' on !! :thumbs:

That was/is my routine, to ramp down. Started at 2.4%, did that maybe a month, but it hit too hard. Dropped to 1.8% and stayed there for almost two years. No plans, no schedules. I felt setting a deadline was setting myself up for failure/disappointment. I'll do it when I do it. This past...

A stumble is a stumble. Get up and try again. It's not a failure, it's a stumble. You can do it. Your post proves you want to, otherwise you'd be off smoking, never to post again. I've tried a couple of cigs since I quit over two years ago now. Didn't like them and didn't consider myself a...

Yep, forgot the period !! LOL

Is vaping harmful ? Dunno. Is tobacco harmful ? Yeppers. I quit smoking cigs two years ago strictly because of cost and hassle. I didn't quit for the noble reasons of "health", "longevity of life" or any of those reasons. Two years in to vaping, I can now run up 5 flights of stairs and not...

Never heard of 'em at that point, this was in 2004 or 2005, were they even around back then ?

When my wife and I was getting supplemental life insurance, the agent asked if we smoked. My wife said no, I said yes (I was a smoker at the time). The price difference was 100 bucks a month !! He asked if I could quit for a week, NO cheating. I said for 100 bucks a month I could !! (and my...

When being forced to sit with the smokers "because it's the same thing". My explanation that that's like telling a recovering alcoholic he HAS to work in a liquor store while trying to get sober and being told, "that's not the same at all.".

Supporting a local B&M because you want to hang around and paying a couple bucks more for e-liquid. Then going home, fill a tank and knock the bottle to the floor; watching it puke it's contents all over as it spins.... Then finding out you actually LIKE the new flavor and going back for more....

I, too, am going on a cruise next month. I'm going Carnival which, in the past, was always okay with smoking on their stateroom balconies. That, however, has changed. All "smoking" (cigars, pipes, tobacco, e-cigs, APVs and whatnot) is relegated to certain areas of the ship. The balconies...

I really don't understand this argument....if the sign says, "No Parking", don't park there. If the sign says, "No vaping" don't vape there. What's the argument ? You WANT to ? So what ???? I was once at a store in New Orleans that had a sign that said "couples dressed alike will be denied...

If the parking sign says, "No Parking After 6 pm"....I don't park there at 7 pm. If the store sign says, "Open until 9 pm"... I don't walk in at 8:55 and expect/demand to shop for two hours. If the sign says, "No e-cigs, no vaping." I don't vape. What's the issue ? A meal takes, what, 30...

I truly think a lot of vaping laws/problems are brought on by us vapers. The phrase "my rights" is way over-played concerning personal activity. You don't have any "right" to vape anywhere/anytime you'd like. Why is that term tossed around so ? Your desire to vape doesn't equate to your...

I'm not sure if my high school permitted or just tolerated the kids smoking, but we had an area outside the cafeteria called "the grates", named such because of vivid childhood imagination; everyone stood over these large grates and pitched their butts down the grates when finished...so let's...

Not smoking related, but old-timey TV related. My dad had a TV remote that never needed batteries, never got stuck down a couch cushion. He had ME. My bedroom was on the first floor not too far from the living room. When he was watching TV, he'd call my name over and over until I went in and...

Man you just flooded back a memory !! :laugh: I was in 7th grade (born in '61, almost the same age), went to my social studies class and slid my books in the rack under my desk. A pack of cigs scooted out the opposite end. I picked them up, crushed them in my hand and threw them in the trash...
