Do you consider yourself a non-smoker?

[coaie]

Yes, I quit 9 months ago.

 

[KraKsX]

Yes, non-smoker - since vapor is not smoke

 

[steampop]

Definitely a non-smoker here, proud of it too. I don't smell of cigs and am not tarring up my lungs (although I am putting something in them, it is believed to be safer at the moment.)

I am a non-smoker!!! vape is the future!

I am still a smoker... I just have not had a cigarette in 30 days... It's reverse psychology on myself so please don't tell me.

I was asked recently by a nurse if I smoked. I said "uh, I'm not really sure. Not traditionally speaking, but I use this (showed him my ecig)". He said, "if you don't use tobacco, you don't smoke".good enough.. I guess people on the patch or other NRT's are considered non-smokers too. It's been interesting the feedback I get from medical professionals, or at least the ones that are caring for me. 100% are encouraging ecig vs analogs. One actually said, "whatever you're doing, keep it up", because my health/quality of life has improved so much

So my answer is "no"
This would make a good poll, eh?

Mostly a non-smoker

Non smoker. Don't even like the tobacco flavors but I have vaped a free sample. Just wouldn't make any. I'd vape extracted if it had some of the good stuff in tobacco that's missing from nicotine. I like most the stuff just not the smoke

I consider myself a non-smoker. What I do with vaping is not smoking. There is no smoke. For the person that asked why does it matter, I'm proud that I finally can say 'I quit smoking'. After so many failed attempts, vaping has finally given me the chance to stay off of cigarettes. That's why it matters to me. My non-smoking husband says I'm a non-smoker. This is a Huge accomplishment!

I consider myself an EX-smoker, rather than a non-smoker. Psychologically, it makes a big difference to me. An ex-smoker has smoked in the past, but does not do so currently, although there is always the underlying temptation to smoke again. A non-smoker has never smoked, nor has the desire to smoke. Once a smoker, ALWAYS a smoker.

Absolutely I consider myself a non-smoker. Glad I can say that. They still ask me if I want cigarettes when I go to the convenience stores I frequent. I say proudly 'I quit!'

Very good point.

I agree with spaceballs!

I agree with spaceballs!

Hard not to, we have smoked ergo we are 'ex smokers' not 'non smokers'
One of the best posts on here pointed out we are still addicts but getting our nicotine in a 21st century
way

Well here's one to ruin the party. I'm a vapor and also a smoker. Just vaping wins hands down 99% of the time.

 

[JimHarris]

I finally successfully gave up cigarettes on my birthday last year, and I haven't smoked since, so yes, I'm a non-smoker. However, I am a vaping demon

Whey no, the better the mix, better the party

im definitely a non-smoker. smoking in the way i interpret it has got something to do with tobacco-products being incinerated. i absolutely dont do anything even remotely close to that. im still a nicotine addict and probably will continue to be for quite some time. actually i enjoy my nicotine and am not planning at all to give it up.
