I vape and drink all the time... doing it right now. But anyways. Vape something you like. If you are really new coming off smokes and have big cravings while drinking then yeah up the nic a bit to help.

As for the hangover part. Hmm... not sure. I don't think there's a correlation between vaping and hangovers unless maybe you're vaping whiskey or something.

Id think youd have to hydrate more before bed because i large part of a hangover is the dehydration effects of the alcohol. Since vaping also dehydrates you id think itd be a bit worse. i dont drink anymore or id try it in the name of sience :). when i did drink i would drink so much that a little added dehydration wouldnt have been noticed
 
I drink and vape all the time too, and like Requiem am right now, I would just vape what you normally vape and perhaps bring a tank with a tobacco flavor or whatever flavor satisfies when you drink to curb the need for a real smoke. As for the morning after I tend to vape something mellow like a vanilla or whatever mellow flavor floats your boat. Just vape something that will not make you want to throw up or anything if you're hangin on bad, lol
Vape ON!!

Quite true. The hangover could be from dehydration. Vaping does attribute to dehydration. Drink some beer flavored water (Miller Lite) in between the other drinks and you should be fine :)

It is all of the 1500 chemicals in cigs that increases the affect of a hangover. That was actually one of the straws that broke the camels back with me when I quit smoking. Alcohol affects everyone differently, so there is no way to answer your question really by me, a stranger to you. But I have never had the negative affects I had when smoking since vaping for 3 years.

I will say I have had a few hangovers since, but all my fault for over indulging. Hydration is key (for me) so I drink water between and along all night, eat as I should, and try to drink responsibly. Vaping itself makes you thirsty, and it is easy to quench that thirst with alcohol instead of water once you have had a few. That is a mistake in my mind.

I don't think nic level (if you are used to that level) has an effect.



Hi I'm about to encounter my first big drinking party being a vapor instead of a smoker. Any tips lower the nic, up the nic? Anything better with a hangover. I had some wine the other night and vaped as a trial run and had the worst hangover I've had since college.

With me, the first "drinking" while vape was a little rough. I had years of cig in one hand, drink in the other. Just set your mind to Vape, hydrate, and take a couple tylenol or advil at the end. After you successfully endure you'll be fine. I don't know how long it's been for you but I'm guessing a cig would taste awful. Good luck.

To be honest I think that your absolutely correct. As far as dehydration goes and vaping. I hadn't really drawn then connection. But since I have been vaping for two years(longer than I have been consistently drinking). I have noticed since I have lowered my ohms I have gotten worse hangovers. I though this was attributed to me not being as young as I used to be. But being a 23 year old it's not that logical. I would say bring battery's and and throw a new coil and wick in before you drink. The hardest thing for me was and still is not wanting a cigarette when drunk. But when I drink i usually mix a cig flavor with another flavor like 50/50. Drunk me likes dirtier vapes I guess
 
No Tylenol or Advil!!! Not with all that alcohol in your system, that's hard enough on the liver. You don't need the added stress of nsaids messing with your liver, save them for the morning after... Plus those are diuretics, and will increase your dehydration more.
I personally quit drinking for these reasons when my doc had me on pain pills.
Just stay hydrated as previously stated. I think a good puke and dump in the am helps resolve much of the hangover, of course followed by rehydrating
Just my .02, as an ex binge drinker
You should still go outside to vapor tho while drinking, to help with the mental I want a cigarette feeling but that is definitely my opinion and ymmv

I second everyone making sure you're hydrated. Also I don't know how your regular cigarettes effected you while drinking, or how often you tend to smoke while drinking, but if you were prone to hangovers from indulging a bit too much in your smoking I would dial down the nic a bit.
And +1 on Choosing a good tobacco flavor.

On the off chance you do get a hangover...try to start keeping some B-12 at home or with you. The kind that dissolve under the tongue. Pop like 2 or 3 and have some Gatorade. This is just a hangover tip in general.

i cant believe people dont know this, drink like a gatorade after drinking, (Or like super high amount of water) before bed, U will be fine, no hangover.

As for Vaping. I thought this would be hard... but everytime I go to the bar, even if I want a smoke, Which is not much because people still smoke in bars here and it smells bad. But i have wanted a couple times. I just... dont.... i still have the willpower
