2 Months Smoke free.... Worried if I vape too much

Okay I use a vapermate and I love it. I bought my Vaper on January 22, 2014 at 12pm... I never touched another smoke nor wanted one. I have OCD so I can easily become obsessed and I wonder if I vape to much. I use about 4ml of 18mg of nicotine. I feel great about not smoking and very proud of myself. I just dont want to over vape. I also have anxiety which makes the worry worse... but I feel wonderful about putting the smokes down. I turned 40 in February and my Mother had her first heart attack at the early age of 45.... so I feel I am improving my health by stopping the smokes.

Congrats on making it Gina!

Other than the occasional dry mouth or rare "over-nic", I've never had an issue with vaping too much. I use roughly the same amount you do per day. I started at 18mg juice, but now I'm at 6mg! It was so easy to taper back over the course of a year or so...and I did it mostly for flavor.

Good luck going forward and you're doing great!

Instead of mixing 0 and 18 you might want to consider buying 11 or 12 whatever your supplier sells. Then mix down you 18 with that until it's gone, and go from there. We currently are doing that with 12 an 6. I understand the money issue, we try to make one juice order a month, and get anything else we might need like coils or anything new I can talk my wife into letting me get. lol

this! I started at 18mg...was getting the head buzz if I overindulged, immediately dropped down to 12 and feel "great".

LOL.. I dont intend on stopping the nic completely.. I have OCD/anxiety issues and I know it sounds nuts but the nicotine really helps me cope.

Congrats, you're doing great!!! And, I see no need to drop it completely. Nicotine is great for treating anxiety, way better than prescription meds with horrible side effects. I say awesome decision on your part.

Quick tip. You can get VG (Vegetable Glycerin) at Wal-Mart, and dilute your 18mg juice down a little, as long as the diminished flavor doesn't bother you. But when you in a tight for funds, you can stretch your juice out a little with that method. Food for thought. It will also diminish the strength of the nicotine too though.
