Three months ago I open my little purple package and found an bottle of apricot ambition mixed in with the other juice I ordered. I am in no way a fan of apricots but I tired it, it was ok but not really my taste. I put it in my juice draw and forgot about it.
last night after a very rough couple days at work I really didn't want the sweet juice I usually vape and after almost two years without a cigarette I was considering going to circle K and buying a pack but I figured I would go through my old juices and see if something could save me. I tried some pluid, it didn't do it, I tried pair of deuces, nope, Krankberry was next, close but still not satisfying, then I tried apricot ambition,the flavor has completely changed, it no longer taste like just apricots and has a much more complex flavor. less then 24 hours latter and I have a little over 5ml left of the 15ml bottle that was full at about 6:00 pm last night.

I agree with you Bronze. I have some juice that is perfect for the times I am about to smoke. I love my Smooth Bourbon Tobacco from Vapor Leaf. It hits hard, just like their Denver Dusk and I keep one or both around for the shaky moments. I will never give up my NT but I will also keep the crave busters around!

Good for you Hammer! You made it and every crave crisis makes us stronger to resist the next one! I really need to stock some 12mg for those times. I have dropped to 6mg and find the 12 does help at those times.

Good for you, you fought the stinkie demon and won!

I agree with Bronze, keep several bottles from several juice vendors around to change things up when the cravings are especially strong. I learned to keep at least 5 different ones loaded and in my reach at all times to keep from getting bored. It has worked well for me so far!

I might have to open my Apricot Ambition and see where it is. Thank you for the reminder!

Want a treat? Mix that AA with with some CB. I think you'll be pleased. However, for a true mouthgasm, mix it with some PBC. Yum!

Had a real bad night yesterday, and the thought crossed my mind to go grab a pack myself. But I knew if I did I would be so upset with myself today, glad you stuck it out. Especially with your time you got into it, I was even trying to rationalize it,"It's only a little over two weeks."

But being smoke free means so much more. Vape on! :vapor:

Awesome! I totally agree, AA steeps like a true champion! Well done avoiding a relapse! *salute*

Resetting that banner would eat my lunch! So you do whatever it takes: higher nicotine for those times, so be it! Vape like a madman - no problem.

I have 2 all day vapes, although i mainly use just the one, and maybe about another 3 or 4 flavours i'm happy to vape for a day at a time and then they get on my nerves!

Even after 2 years, some things catch me out and make me think of smoking - i saw a movie 2 weeks ago, and some guy had just been beaten up, so he grabbed a cigarette and i swear, he smoked just like i did...nailed it in 20 seconds. I fogged the room out vaping along.
Whatever it takes.

I have some 18 mg Virus stashed away for those just in case moments...

Will we always have those days?? It seems we all have them sometimes not matter how long it's been but the important thing is to vape through it. Sometimes I see someone smoke on TV and think.....hmmmmm.

This community has helped me not relapse so many times it's almost magical. I read a post somewhere that "all vapers want from an eLiquid company is good juice - that's it." In my own personal experience, a great liquid and a good device is certainly a pre-requisite to success - but life happens - and when it does, I generally come here because you all understand what "those days" are like. Thank you all for helping ME stay SMOBER. XOXO

And I can honestly repeat your post word for word! If it hadn't been for the support I've received here, I would be back to a pad smoker so thank you to everyone here from the bottom of my heart!! :wub: you all!!
