.....I think that this is the very best article I have read about e cigs.....it will help all of us if it helps to clear up the problem people have about nicotine and it's addictive properties.....and maybe we can roll back those restrictive laws being passed right now ....


...The E Cig has saved my life ...I am sure of that ......it will be 2 years next month that I stopped smoking regular cigs, and vaping E Cigs .....I tried patches, I tried the gum, I tried lozenges, the patches cut me form 2 packs to 1 pack a day ....not exactly helpful ....and the gum and lozenges made me sick to my stomach instantly ...and it lasted for hours .....

...Then I found out about E-Cigs....Oh Joy ! Oh Rapture ! .....I found my crutch ....and a good and sturdy one it is too ....not to mention pretty, especially since I glittered mine up !

....And after 2 years of not smoking, after 40 some odd years of smoking ...I have turned around lots of the negative things that smoking regular cigs did to me body .....some are not able to go back to normal ...I don't have enough years left ....but those are still vastly improved .....

"Pharmaceutical companies are investing big bucks in the design and development of potential drugs with affinity for the brain’s nicotinic receptors—they mimic the action of nicotine itself—in order to package and sell these positive neurochemical effects."

Yup, they want to corner the market on using them there nicotinic receptors for their own gain.

Excellent read! Well worth the time to take it all in!
Although the title suggests that the info is geared toward the mentally ill, which it is, the info is also applicable to the general population.

This could lead to a lengthy discussion on which side of the church each of us sits in. MI on the left GP on the right please.

......I forgot to mention ....I have ADHD, and to a significant degree.....has impaired my life to a very large degree......according to my info, something like 80% of people with ADD smoke .....and find it nearly impossible to quit ....that's how I found out about e cigs in the first place....someone mentioned them on a quitting smoking thread on my ADD forums ......I have scraped and gone without to send e cigs to 4 people on that forum, and 2 people in my facebook group

....I don't preach about much ....but I preach the e cig to any smoker who will listen...and I'll tie down ones who won't .....


when you find a life saver, you got a life saver ....


( I lied, I preach about politics all the time ....once a foaming at the mouth liberal, always a foaming at the mouth liberal ! ....I was liberal when it wasn't cool to be one .....)

Yeah, I had that experience last night and it was with someone that used a cigalike for awhile, went with the little cigars and is back full time on cigarettes. She just couldn't get off the "but you're still using nicotine" argument. I finally gave up when she went to the "I'll just go cold turkey" argument. I'm sure we'll have the same discussion a few years from now.

I agree. I had smoked 30+ years and am so thankful for vaping. Wish I would have discovered it sooner, but I no longer have a horrible cough and bronchitis. I don't get winded as easily. I honestly do believe it saved my life and definitey improved the quality of my life. I have a hard time understanding all the negatively towards vaping/e-cigs. I would think it would be promoted instead of banned.
