You as well eh? didn't think i'd find another here.

My maternal grandmother, after my grandfather's death in 1985, just gradually came unmoored from the rest of the world, though she lived till 1999 -- she was 95, but didn't even know who SHE was, nevermind anyone else. My other grandmother, I wasn't very close to, but my father told me that she suffered Alzheimers, which is why she didn't even make it to 85.

Can't really continue vaping when it is about to be completely illegal soon.

Sure I can. I've got at least 5yrs of nicotine in my freezer, though at this point, it's closer to 10yrs.

No plans to quit vaping. Lost my addiction to nicotine coming up on 5 years ago soon. Most of what I vape is zero nic but I have a couple juices that I mix that I still prefer to have a bit of nic in so I continue to add 2 or 3mg nic to those. Maybe some day I'll decide to walk away from vaping, but I don't see that happening anytime soon. :)

Undecided but for now I'm going to vape on cigarette free now for six years gone around the world to not smoke first nicotine gum and patches, second swedish snus still use but to a much lesser extent and vaping since late 2013 early 2014 tried it in 2011 and 2012 but did not like it back then.So not planning on quitting if some of the unknowns become bad news or health suffers from something vaping related then I will rethink it but not quitting anytime soon.

I know one person a girl and half a pack smoker who switched to vaping then bragged she was quitting vaping too and now she's back to smoking.

I'm not doing anything to try to stop vaping. Instead I'm starting to get serious about stockpiling (which amounts to very little at any rate) but if the there is a good reason to stop I will. One of my relapses was after 10 years so I'd need to keep vaping stuff at the ready.

I don't think so. Maybe I'll get to the point where I only vape in social settings or when I'm in for something relaxing or making me feel good. Like a ice cold beer in the evening.

But right now, I still can't stand even an hour without a vape without getting really huge urges. Almost as bad as when I smoked. But I have managed to cut down nicotine levels from 24mg to 15, and have now ordered 650ml in 12mg and 650mg in 9mg :)

Ok so here's my thoughts on this subject. In the foreseeable future, no. Analog cigarettes have quite the effect on my health as I've noticed so I've stopped doing that. I smoked cigarettes for a while because it seems to be good for something, just not sure what that something is.

Vaping on the other hand has flavors and all kinds of goodies, stuff you can tweak and make sure everything works great for you. For this reason, I'm not going to put it down for a while and I know that. The premise of me quitting this however, I have no idea on. If I find out I'm puffing on something that is toxic and very bad for my health, of course I will. If not, then I will continue about my business.

I've been happily vaping for 4 years and 9 months. The idea that the European Parliament and governments (or the FDA in the US) may make vaping unbearable irritates me deeply. I know I'm not going to dive into the black market. So, in that situation I guess I'll have to quit. Or become a weekend vaper, I'm not sure if that works for me (it may, we're calmly capable of things we never knew we were). For now, despite all the terrible signs, I still say let's see how it all turns up. But if the worst comes to the worst, then I'll have to rethink the entire thing... I know I'm not going to smoke.

I do not "plan" to quit vaping, however, if they actually regulate it back to the stone age and to the point everything not sold by tobacco is "outlawed" (take that with a grain of salt please) I will be just as happy to quit at this point - with no major worries. I will still continue to DIY and buy 0 nic and add my own if allowed. I can build my own mods if needed. My Brother In-law runs a metal shop and he's an old school engineer. He said he'd be happy to machine up some parts for me for what I cannot make myself. I may just (fake)apprentice with him in his at home shop and buy materials off him and learn to FULLY mod everything from the ground up. We will see. :)
