Last summer I learned my lesson, met this girl and we had gotten serious went to her house (insert details here) went outside and vaped for 10min straight..went inside sometime later samething again..vaped for a couple more minutes ended up with the most brutal headache..

Yup, that's what a woman does to a man.

Most of us have overdone it on the nic. At the concentrations in juice, unless you're drinking it, it passes in a couple hours. You probably haven't found your right nic level yet. I had a heck of a time finding mine.

The bad news is this probably won't be the last time. Here's what worked for me. I lowered my nic till I didn't have a problem with overdoing it (12 mg), that meant that I had a problem with craving sometimes. So, I kept an atomizer, a drip tip, and a bottle of 24mg with me. When I got a crave, I took off what I was using and put on the atomizer and dripped (put the drops directly in the atomizer and vape it till the taste falls off) three or 4 drops of the 24mg. The important thing to remember when doing this is that the nic doesn't hit as quickly when vaping. So, after you drip those few drops, go back to your normal juice. After 10 or 15 minutes, your crave will probably have subsided. If not, try another round.

I used to do this 3 or 4 times a day. Now it's like 3 or 4 times a month but, I still do it.

I use 18 mg in the morning, and if I am going a long time between vapes. But after an hour of 18, I drop to 0-12 mgs if I am vaping a long time, and 0-6 if I am sitting sucking on my vape for hours in the evening.

I think all of us have had that "overdoing it" reaction. But I had the same reaction if I went to a party and sat there and chain smoked an entire pack of cigs. It is easy when vaping just to keep vaping and vaping and vaping all day, so you have to adjust your nic accordingly to what fits you.
