Calling all "young" vapers!

[Allan.GH]

Ummmm, I'd be 64 but I was 'nic sick' for 45 years. So I guess I'm 19 mentally and over 100 physiologically.

And to the yutes of today, make vape, not ashes!

Using the same method of calculation....I started when I was 12, and had a 5 year hiatus, with another sabbatical of 4 years, and only re-quit a few weeks ago, so....

I'm only 21 years-old, though my DL says that I'm....uhm...where's my license? Well...I guess I'm old enough to forget where I put my license.

Lessee...60 - 11 is 49. That sounds *about* right.

I am 25, but I have been around the world more then once, seen things that should not be seen, and married with a kid, so I feel older lol. I picked up my first cig at 15, but didnt start actively pursue it till I was 18. Been vaping for a little over 2 1/2 months.

I'm 22.... Soon to be 23! *birthday countdown* I first tried a cigarette at 11 and by 14 was smoking regularly. My health also has pulled a 180 and its wonderful. At 20 years old my mom told me " I didn't cough like that until I was in my 40s!" I had wanted to quit for a long time, tried once, but I loved smoking. Without electronic cigarettes I have no doubt in my mind I'd still be a 1-1.5 PAD smoker. When its the ritual you love, cold turkey, patches, ect just don't cut it.

Not to hard to understand, if your mom smoked 6 years before she had you....

Still not sure where the other 2 years came from.

I am 21,Smoked since i was 13,so thats give or take 8 years,and im from Sunny South Africa.I have been vaping for 3 months now and can truelly feel the health befits.

And thought i might add that me and my brother now both vape he accually got me into it,we are the only smokers in our family.

I'm 46 now and started smoking at 14. I tried so many times to quit that eventually I just quit trying. E-cigs are the only thing that actually worked. That's why I feel jealous of all you younger vapers. You have this amazing new thing which you can switch to and it's just so easy.

The same can be said for smokeless tobacco like snus. I use that too now. Such things simply didn't exist all the times I tried to quit smoking. E-cigs were not invented, and smokeless tobacco sales were and still are illegal in my home country New Zealand. Clearly my government much prefers cigarette taxation to public health. Utterly shameful, but true.

It just makes me so sad and angry that the easiest and most effective ways to quit smoking are the things most attacked by so-called health groups and the government. They tell so many blatant lies about e-cigs and snus.

Anyway, to all new young vapers. Keep on vaping and enjoy!

Started smoking when I was 18 as a means of replacing anxiety pills. Hilariously, smokes were less expensive. Started vaping over a year ago with a Blu kit... That lasted about 3 weeks before the wholenthing broke down and I went back to the old days. Around 4 months ago now I picked up a 510T and started getting somewhere. I'll still grab an analog from someone at work if the day is hellish enough, but my KGo has gotten me away from buying a pack for the last 4 months, and having analogs tastes like all kinds of awful, it feels more like punishment.

 

[Dying2Live]

I'm 20 here. been smoking analogs for about 6 years since I was 14. been vaping about 3 months now and I'm doing great!

 

[Slickstick]

ANOTHER poll would be better than a thread.

 

[sixstringgirl]

My son is 19. I'm not sure exactly how long he has been smoking, but he wants me to order him an EGO ! I'm pretty excited ! I sure hope he quits the analogs !

 

[blindfury]

Still not sure where the other 2 years came from.

lol. did not see that backfire.

 

[Morgythekilla]

I'm 22, been smoking PAD since about 13. Love vaping, but have been back on analogs due to no batts. Am waiting for my student loans to order some new ones... I cant want to vape again. I feel like such a loser sitting outside at a nice bar with a cig in my hand.. It's so unattractive and I cant breathe.
