Ok so i haven't had an analogue in 6 days! feeling really good ,the only problem is my partner seems to think im a bit zombish and moody but i dont think i am, probs just a withdraws problem from tobacco that should pass soon ? I think its a really subtle difference but not sure
Anyone had a similar situation?

 

[Bonskibon]

Your body will detox from all the other chemicals that are in cigarettes and that will pass. I guess everyone may be a bit different in how they detox. Hang in there, and congrats on 6 days!

Congrats.

Are you sure you are getting the proper level of nicotine?

It might br a good idea to getva second Atty and tge next higher nicotine level and vape tge higher nicotine in the morning with coffee and after dinner.

The withdrawal symptoms or affects are different for everybody and I was a different person for sure. From my own experience it should last around 2 weeks before the level of the nasty chemicals added to analogs is low enough to not be a factor any longer. Just look at the bright side in my opinion you are half way there! Congratulations, Good Luck and Keep Up The Good Fight!

Vape On Safely!

I didn't have any issues when I first started (24mg). However, when I started to decrease the nicotine content in my e-liquids, THEN I started eyeing others with thoughts of mayhem.

Cigarettes contain a slew of stimulants, not only nicotine.
It's perfectly normal to feel a bit off, and sometimes even a bit depressed for a while after switching to vapours
Congrats and keep going. The slowness will pass

Give it a month at least, your body is detoxing from all the crap and you may go into some withdrawals as it's not just the nicotine that cigarettes contain that creates dependence issues, your body is used to a LOT of poisons and needs to get used to not be getting them.

All said and done. You will feel better, you sure as hell will smell better and, have more money in your pocket. It's all positive from here on out just gotta get over the hump.

Six days is great. Don't worry about nicotine levels right now use whatever it takes to get through the next month. Mtl I think I would use the 24mg for the first month then see where you're at. 12 is probably a bit low to begin with but whatever works for you. Good luck.

Yup, don't sweat how much nic you need starting out. My first cigalike was 48 mg and my first proper vape was 24 mg mtl. There is nothing wrong with using a higher nic juice and staying with that for several months than be at all worried about lowering the nic and not getting cranky and moody. It's your body and your past smoking habits that need to be adjusted for, not others. So vape away on 24 mg if it controls your cravings.

There are certainly stages when you start vaping. I found I had a lot more energy for awhile. Then I was getting to much nic so was running around like a headless chicken, anxiety and such. Then kind of woozy. Had to drop the nic level. Also noticed more effects from caffeine and sugary drinks, so started drinking decaf. (something about the liver working better)

For me it was a balancing act for 6 months or so, but I was a 42 year heavy smoker.

 

[SinQuaNon]

Thanks for the support and tips!

 

[Frenchfry1942]

Yes, it is a balancing act. I had to purge the bad chemicals and find a proper nic level. Actually, after a bit, I noticed that the nic level was tied to my equipment and how often I vaped. At early morning coffee it was higher nic to get it into my system. Pretty much like a 2-3 cig chain smoke. But, in the evening in front of the TV, I had to go lower nic because I had my mod in my hand.

Just a kind of turbulent/learning time for a month. New equipment with different characteristics had influences, too.

Just vape when you have the physical urge. Getting rid of all those bad chemicals is the task. My doctor, and dentist, saw positive changes.

Vape On!

When i quit, unbelievable coughing/ flem.
Jumpy, sharp with people.
Was vaping 33mg/ cigalike. I had no cigarette cravings though.

Good trade off in my opinion.
In the 3rd day, i smelled my lawn, that beautiful dirt smell. Hadn't done that since early adolescence..

It all depends on your delivery system your using. If its a clearo(1.8-2.5ohm coil) and ego pen then 24 should be good enough to start. Protanks and nautilus type attys(1.2-1.8ohm) then 18nic. Getting into lower ohm attys like subtanks 1.2 or lower then 12 nic and start decreasing the nic as your body tells you with nausea, headaches or feeling sickly. You don't have to inhale every vape, the mucus in your mouth will absorb the nic also. Don't hit the vape heavy in the morning or you'll end up with a headache since it takes longer for vape nic to absorb than ciggy nic so no more Ahhh feeling after that morning puff like you use too with a cig. The detoxing has already been explained and don't forget the lung butter that might come up from quitting smoking as your lungs begin to reject the ciggy YUK in your lungs.
Try not to heavy vape before bed cause Nic is a stimulant and insomnia will follow.
