Relax. Plenty of ppl here don't build, and you have your friend to help you, when you're ready. I think a lot of people are building because they want to be prepared for restrictive laws (which it sounds like you have) and unfortunate events.... So that is mentioned. I think rebuilding might be cool in my future, but I'm just coming off analogues too, and that's frustrating to even think about plus I have a fine motor tremor, not sure how I'd do rebuilding, my husband would probably do it FOR me but he's on day one of quitting without wanting to vape. I don't think today is the day to ask

For me, I'd love to be mixing, but I know I'm not at that point yet. I have the nautilus 2 and I use 1.8 coils and store-bought juice, I'm super happy with the experience. Good luck, I know the switch can be hard-- I don't think anyone here is trying to pressure you into anything, sometimes the flood of information can be overwhelming though....
Best of luck! Keep vaping, even if you smoke here and there! Believe me, I did for awhile, but I *always* returned to vaping, and my cravings are subsiding. It'll work
