COngrats! I smoked for years, then quit for 10 years. Started again 7 months ago for some dumb reason. I've been vaping now almost one month and I haven't looked back.

Congrats, 45+ years here and been off the analogs for 26 days. Thinking of celebrating my 30 day anniversary by upgrading to a GLV2
Vape On!
Vape On!
Congratulations! I feel the same way because after 25+ years of not being able to break the habit, I finally did it 5 months ago!
Five months may not seem like very long, but I'm a guy whose tried so many different ways and was never able to make it more than a few days.
I'm a primitive compared to you, I think, LOL. I'm using standard, off the shelf N-Joys and Blu's. I have yet to find a vape shop or specialty place for these and to deal with other vapers directly.
Again Congrats! I'm glad to find that so many others have had a similar success.

That's AWESOME keep going man!
When I started vaping, I didn't do it to actually quit, but just to try to cut back on smoking - but after three days I was like "I don't really WANT a real one..."
If you don't have the desire for anything but vaping, I wouldn't advise "just one...to see..." LOL!
I haven't and I NEVER WILL!

I think 5 months is definitely a long time. I was never able to do that and I tried everything.
You know, if you don't want to go back on nicotine they do make zero nicotine juice. I'm not saying you should or shouldn't. Just letting you know it's available from vendors if that's what you want.
Edit:
I'm sorry, I misread your post. I thought you quit smoking, then stared vaping. Didn't realize that's how you quit.
My mistake! Nevermind!

The longest I've ever made it was 4 months, so if I make it 5 months...yeah thats huge for me! WAY TO GO!!!
ECF should have Vape Medals you can post on our Sig's for length of time awards off of the analogs!
I am having a extremely, very terrible cough (like the whole lungs wanna come out and breathe) and quitter's flu. Going thru cold turkey treatment with running nose and other knots. I had been smoking for 18years average 25 sticks per day. Tough to quit, but sure I'm determine this time.
All intake of food seems tasteless and no matter very salty also no feeling. Guys am I normal?

Hang in there Xedward, I was a pack a half Camel non-filter smoker for 35 years. When I quit I got super sick and it lasted for like a month. I've now been off the smokes for 3 months and I feel great. I love vaping and can't imagine going back to analogs. It does get better, and it will be worth it.

I went through that a few weeks ago, it was terrible, but didnt last long..
I even slept for most of a day.. Had no energy and really felt like a bad flu ..
And Grats panachronic .. I too smoked for as many years and havent had a analogue since I started vaping 8 weeks ago..
I'm sure this is normal. You're asking your body to adapt to new conditions, so it seems reasonable to expect a little push-back.
I am in my 9th week since my last analog, and I have only recently begun to recover a near-normal sense of taste and smell. It's an interesting experience. For example, I am a heavy coffee drinker, but suddenly I have rediscovered tea (which has a lovely flavor that I never really appreciated before now). And I am finding that when I pull an article of clothing out of my closet that I haven't worn for some time, I now notice that it smells like the old me, and I say to myself, "Whoa, I need to wash that!"
It's also interesting when I encounter a smoker out in public, for example in line at the grocery store. I think to myself with satisfaction, "Wow, and to think that I used to smell like that!"
Anywho... the benefits of quitting accrue over time, not all at once, and any unpleasantness passes relatively quickly.
